It's a rollercoaster of emotions for me... I was just wondering if anyone is in the same boat

Hi...

You are in my prayers as you begin this process. May it only take ONE cycle for you. May you get a BFP 14 days after transfer. May you have a boring 8+ months. May you have an uneventful delivery. May you have a happy healthy baby in your arms... These are my prayers to God for you.

In Him,
Laura

I will be starting IVF around the second week in December, just got confirmation today.

Hopefully we will go onto PAM together, please email or reply if there's anything I can answer for you (not that I'm an expert!!)

Lots of luck and love to you honey xxx

I have done it and yes, it is a HUGE rollercoaster. I did it not b/c of fertility issues. I am "fertile murtle." But b/c my friend is carrying a baby for us. I was really scared about the cost for one, and the not knowing if it would work or not. Any questions you might I, please feel free to ask me. I would love to help. I am so glad that we did it, we now have a son on the way and he will be here in April.

We did one IVF egg retrieval with two embryo transfers. As you can see from my siggy, IVF did not end in a pg for us. But, I know many many couples who have become pg this way. I thank God that this option is available. I'll be praying for you as you undergo this process.

I am doing IUI after the holidays. I know Micky on the PAM board is PG from IVF. She could probably answer any questions if you have any.

Wishing you LOTS AND LOTS of LUCK!
