Ivf-preparing for or already been through the process

I am getting ready to start IVF in the middle of July. I am hoping to meet people who are getting ready to start IVF or those who have already been through it. Those who understand the rollercoaster of infertility. I know I need all of the encouragement I can get and hope to encourage others as well.

I have about 6 weeks until I start stimming so I hope to lose at least another 15 lbs and just improve my overall health.

    We just found out that at this time we aren't candidates for IUI, so IVF will be our next venture. We've chosen to try some things to make IUI work before opting for IVF. Our insurance covers both, so I am extremely grateful for that. Good luck to you both! Add me if you'd like!

    Hi all! I am starting IVF on Thursday and am trying to eat really well to support the process as much as possible. I don't need to lose weight, but I'm trying to follow the recommendations of my acupuncturist. The foods I'm supposed to focus on change with each phase of the cycle. Right now I'm focused on eggs, seeds, healthy fats, fish, and raw dairy. I also just started tracking again to make sure I'm getting enough protein. It's nice to have other people to connect with! Much luck to all of you - infertility is a very difficult journey.
