I am doing IVF again after having had a child via IVF. I am 38 and after one cycle we have 1 genetically tested healthy embryo. Just to say I know this comes from a very privileged place of already having a child and we are beyond grateful for them. This makes trying for #2 less stressful but I’m also a realist...

Just wondering if anyone can offer their experience with the copper IUD after pregnancy or just in general? I’m 8 months pp and considering getting it but I’m 50/50 cause I have heard a lot of mixed stories.

Hi, I just had a failed medicated FET. We have one frozen embryo remaining and our clinic has offered us the option of a natural FET (but with a trigger shot) as I had some migraines with the meds on this last go. Has anyone got experience of this or faced this decision? What did you go with and why? Clinic say th...

Hello I want to know how many people have had success requesting a planned csection and their tubes tied or hysterectomy, I asked about it today at my midwife appointment and she said I'm unlikely to be successful because I'm 27, I have 2 children already that are high dependent special needs I want this 3rd baby th...

Awaiting cycle day 1 to arrive to start stims in first cycle of IVF, anyone else??

Hello I have low AMH and was just wondering if anyone knows whether having a few months breaks between full rounds of IVF or back to back rounds are better? Recently had a failed round with one embryo and worried having a break is a bad idea. Thank you

Is there a private clinic that can remove my IUD and what's the cost? In London and near by places

Hey, Is there anything I can do during the wait to help implantation etc?

Just had my first fertility appointment where I’ve been told I need a HSG. (Dye inserted into the fallopian tubes to check for any issues like blockages.) Has anyone had one before? How bad is the pain?

Little ones first injections tomorrow, anything I can do to make it easier for him before/after. Thank you :)

Any moms get an IUD and have extremely long periods? This is my second and I didn’t have this issue last time. Now they’re lasting 12-14 days. I’ve logged data to show my doctor, but it’s driving me crazy.

What do you guys think about it ? Do you have it ?

Does anyone have experience with both / has considered which to go with? 😊

Did IUI, official test date is tomorrow. I would be able to see the slightest of something right? Can y'all confirm you don't see anything please. Please be kind in January I had a miscarriage. 😢

Hope you don’t mind me asking about this. Our clinic said to continue as normal in our life and we can also have sexual intercourse but we didn’t have actual sex we just played as bit and I had an orgasm with no penetration. If I go online some says to avoid orgasm for the contraction of the uterus and other says th...

Anyone Nottingham based who’s been through or starting IVF, I’m so nervous, I’ve got my first consultation on Wednesday but I just have no idea what to expect, how long we will be waiting for treatment. My husband has a condition called oats. I haven’t had any investigations yet. I haven’t been told that we are defi...

This might sound dumb but did anyone stop getting their nails done before starting IVF? I know it’s alot of unnecessary chemicals just wanted to get everyone’s opinion

I have medicaid and my ob said that it would cover it. But idk if it would cover removal all together. Does anyone know? Im 21 and have a boy and girl and 100% sure i do NOT want anymore children ever unless we adopt.
