Hi ladies,
I've been reading the post for the past couple of weeks now and thought I should introduce myself.
I'm at the very beginning of the IVF journey.. A couple of days ago my hubby and I found out that IVF ICSI is pretty much the only option for us due to DH poor motility 
Can I please join your Facebook group? I would love to be able to talk to someone in the same boat.
Shall I PM you Tiff8any?
Thanks girls

Hi Paris
I have just started our 5th IVF cycle and am 40. We do ICSI with PGD testing as well. Hoping this will be the cycle we get our BFP!
Good luck with your cycle.

Hi everyone,
I've also been reading the forum for the past couple of weeks. It's an amazing support during a time that certainly feels like a bit of an emotional rollercoaster. So thanks!
A little bit about me: we are part-way through our first IVF cycle, after TTC 2 years. We have a male fertility issue, so our cycle involved ICSI.
We started off with 14 eggs collected, 8 fertilised. And then a rapid drop to 3, then 2, then one viable, which was sad and shocking! I had in my mind that we'd put one back and freeze 'the rest' - how wrong I was! So much for two bites at the same cherry (we paid for this cycle).
On Monday we had our one embryo placed back, so currently on 2ww. Fingers crossed.....
I'd love to also join the FB group - assume that I need to PM someone?
Good luck everyone!

Hi Paris, I am 43 and recently had a m/c after 9week scan showed no heartbeat. We did IVF with ICSI for the BFP. We have just agreed with FA to do our 2nd IVF (we have had to pay as don't quality for any subsidies). Just found out today we start again after my next AF.
Dinky/Donkey we only got 5 eggs and only 2 fertilised. Stay strong it only takes one..

Hi there, have posted a question on another thread but just found this one and thought may be more people here who might be able to help.
We are waiting to go on the public waiting list for Hamilton next month, has anyone gone on that list recently and if so how long was your wait? If it's over a year wait then we're thinking we'll have a shot at private then do public later but if you are successful with your private round does that mean you won't qualify for public down the track? I've read all the online info I can find but I still can't quite figure it out.
We have severe MFI so IVF with ICSI will be our only chance but would like to make the most of the public chances mixed with some private because presuming it could take a few shots at it if it will work at all.
I've read lots of successes on here which make me hopeful and read of lot's of woman who don't give up even after three or four times which I find very inspiring. Great of everyone to share their stories : )

Hi Guest,
thats hard ah. I M/C at 12 weeks and was just devastated, like everyone that goes through this.....It was probably one of the hardest things..Was that the first cycle you had a pregnancy with Guest? We also do ICIS, seems the only way for us...and am now on a private cycle, watching every penny at the mo, I am sure you know what thats like too...
Sounds like we will be starting at the same time...
Dinky Donkey-hope you are doing ok...you must be a few days from knowing?...
Hi Cream,
we did a private cycle in-between the public ones...The wait just seemed so long for us and you will be like the rest of us in terms of just wanting to get on with it and move forward..The waiting is very very hard...
Yes there are so many stories on here and a huge source of encouragement and support- i could not have managed without it!
All the best to everyone else out there...

Hi ladies, I'm interested in joining your facebook page please but just a bit nervous about whether it comes up on your facebook status or not? Partner and I are keeping our fertility issues just to our super close friends and family so wouldnt want it blared across FB that I had joined an IVF page if you know what I mean : )

Hi all pretty ladies,
Well I just looked to see when I last signed in and it was Dec 11 2011.
Well I would love to chat to more that are going through what I am. So undecided on what to do.
I have had 2 IVF cycles and both turned to BNF's
So do I try again or do I look down donor egg.I have public funding for either choices and I feel I want to start again soon as I have rested for over year and nothing has happened naturally either :(

Wow...I havent been in here for ages. Our little boy is 9 months now and we are about to go on the waiting list for number two.
Cream - We have MFI, and went private to get our little boy last year. I did not qualify for public funding due to my weight. But I have lost 30kgs and now qualify and having our boy doesnt affect our ability to go on the list now. I think you are better off doing a private then public, because if you do a public then it affects you ability to go public again.
