    I am not currently doing IVF, but I have in the past. I remember what a rollercoaster it was. I just wanted to wish you the best of luck!

    My Wife and I are currently going through our first cycle. We are currently half way through the dreaded 2 week wait. For me this is the hardest part so far, but of course I didn't need to jab myself with needles!

    Hi there, I'm Laura. I am currently undergoing my second round of IVF. Transfer scheduled for November 21st, so I right in the middle of the process. Of course, all the while I am trying to balance my weight and at this stage, working to ensure that I just don't have a big gain with all the hormones, etc.

    I remember all too well the 2 week wait - I would say that was the hardest part, but to be very blunt, it was learning that after that 2 week window I was not pregnant...

    I will say prayers for each of you that you have a successful round this time!

    I had IVF to concieve my first daughter so you can imagine my suprise when 7 months later I found out we were pregnant again all on our own without treatment. I guess the pregnancy helped sort my system out. I love my girls but it was heck of a suprise. 1 daughter via IVF, triplets on our own.

    I wish all of you going through IVF the best of luck. It is a hard and expensive ride and with each failed attempt we mourned the dream we had of a child that never was. The day that Dr came in and told us we had done it, well I could have exploded with the happy!! I can honestly say, if I could bundle up all of that joy and happiness and send it to you I would. I hope with everything that you experience it for yourselves very soon.
