Hi Jaqui
There are lots of us on the IVF rollercoaster. Most of us hang out on a private FB page now. If you IVF chat thread you'll see who to message if you'd like to join. It's a secure site (not visible to your other FB friends), & lots of lovely supportive ladies there. Sorry I don't know how to koin you up myself. Cycle-wise, the clinics all close for Christmas, but there will be quite a few of us starting new cycles in January (including me). Where are you up to on your journey? I see AM at Fertilty Associates in Wellington. Who do you see? ------------- TTC since 2008 Me 41 & DH 40 Severe endometriosis IVFx5 + 2xFET BFN 6th IVF April 2011 BFP - PPROM 17weeks (my darling Rajnee) 7th IVF Oct 2011 BFN 8th IVF Feb 2012 BFN, FET April 2012 BFN |

Jaqui - good luck with your IVF journey. It's a rollercoaster, but we're all fantastic at supporting each other. I don't know what I would have done before finding the OB IVF pages and now with our facebook group. Please feel free to join us, otherwise I'll pop in here occassionally to answer any questions etc. If you want to join the facebook group just PM me. I hope your IVF journey is short! ------------- 5 IVF/ICSI Cycles - 10 embryo's, 8 transfers, all BFN's. Our journey to parenthood is over, and we join the unfortunate many for whom IVF does not work. |

Hi Jaqui :)
I am also doing my first IVF cycle at the moment, and also with Wellington FA. I am currently on the pill and start jabs on 02nd Jan. This section of the forums is a little quiet, so come and join us on the FB group. Don't be shy, I was a little at first but it is a lovely supportive group of women and there are 3 of us on there at the moment all on our first IVF cycle over Dec/Jan. Wishing you all the very best for your cycle! |

| The FB group is totally private, it doesn't show up on your news feed or anything like that. PM tichler, she knows the trick to invite you to the group. We would love to have you both. |

Hi Mermaidess,
I am in the FB group too and it is a wonderful group of ladies... I don't know how to add people either but will ask for you. I'm doing my first round of IVF early Feb so maybe we could end up being cycle buddies. ;-) :-) ------------- http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/279456">

| That would be great!! :) Feel a bit clueless about it all at the moment but hopefully will figure things out along the way. Weird combination of excitement and being scared... was so excited to find out it had been brought forward then got quite depressed when I realized I had to actually go through it and deal with the uncertainty... but will all be worth it if it works :) |

| We had been trying for about 15 months then had our meeting with John Hutton at FA Wellington. Been on the waiting list since October last year. Soooooooo can't wait. Join the facebook forum and we can chat! |

| Hiya, hope to join you on FB soon! We had our first consultation last July with John Hutton & I had a laparoscopy & hysteroscopy in Nov & then our follow up with Andrew Murray (who did my laparoscopy) in Dec where it was confirmed after 10 yrs of marriage, 5 yrs trying to conceive that IVF was our only way forward! It's definitely a rollercoaster of emotions, roll on September!!! |

| Good luck to your cycle girls! I do understand your desire of having a baby. Have you tried any fertility or pregnancy treatments? There are many reasons why a woman is not capable to conceive and as well as a man's infertility yet there are still ways to have a child of your own. Try to have some medical advice for you and your husband, know the reasons and ask for a solution. If I may, We at GlobalIVF specialize in helping people like you. We are a community of over 5000 IPs, clinics, doctors and lawyer. And it if FREE to use our extensive database. Plus you can ask questions to our very experienced team (free, as well) anytime. Hope you can find what your looking for on our site. http://www.globalivf.com/directory" rel="nofollow - http://www.globalivf.com/directory |

I hope all of you ladies have your dreams come true already. it is history by this point but still. I am thinking about sharing the whole journey of my own. maybe i will create a blog or something. but I think this is so amazing. to be able to see so many women gather and share their stories with each other. so supportive! |
