Thanks Trish!

Wishin41 - this is the info from Fertility Associates website:

Public Funding Eligibility
The scoring system for public funding of fertility treatment combines points from objective criteria related to the chance of pregnancy (prognosis without treatment, woman’s age, FSH level, smoking) and points from social criteria (duration of infertility, previous children, voluntary sterilisation). The Ministry of Health has set the threshold at 65 points.

Typical scenarios, which gain a score of at least 65, include:


A couple with severe infertility, no children, who have been trying for a year or more

A couple with unexplained infertility who have been trying for five years

A couple with severe infertility, one child from a previous private treatment, who have been trying for at least three years


A lesbian couple where the woman wanting to become pregnant has a biological cause of infertility of at least a year’s duration

A single woman whose investigations are normal, but who has not become pregnant after 12 cycles of privately-funded donor insemination

Here is a link to the form that the specialists use to assess your eligibility:

Hi there ladies, could you please tell me what your situation has to be to be publicly funded ivf?
Do you have to be a certain weight? age? trying for a certain amount of time?

Hi Evolsen, yup I was lucky enough to have a successful IVF cycle first time around. I hope that the same happens for you! I am having my baby on the 9th August by elective c-section as she is breech and big, so the obstetrician thinks it's unlikely she will turn. I can't wait to meet her! I will cross all my fingers and toes for you Evolsen, keep us posted as to your progress!

Hi Lulu
I am new to the forum so I missed this thread completely. I've just started my first IVF cycle last week and Noodle told me that yours was successful first time. That is so good to hear! Gives me lots of hope. I wish you all the best for next month (that's when you're due, aren't you?) and look forward to hearing about your little miracle on this forum soon!]]> Sun, 15 Jul 2007 10:47:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4200&PID=180314&title=yay-i-have-dates-for-my-ivf-cycle#180314 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4200&PID=95992&title=yay-i-have-dates-for-my-ivf-cycle#95992 Author: james

No offence taken! Not officially pregnant yet. This is the same as a normal conception 2ww. So effectively when the embryo was replaced, it was the same as it being three days after having sex. So you are not officially pregnant until your HCG levels are high enough to show as a positive on a test, which is normally two weeks.

I hope this makes sense...?]]> Thu, 07 Dec 2006 12:33:14 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4200&PID=92363&title=yay-i-have-dates-for-my-ivf-cycle#92363 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4200&PID=92312&title=yay-i-have-dates-for-my-ivf-cycle#92312 Author: my2angels

Ok so excuse my ignorance here but Im not really up with the IVF thing. Are you technically pregnant now and when you do the blood test on the 12th you find out if baby has 'stuck'?

I love that Rachel - a flower! So sweet!

No Maya I don't think I will be tempted to do a HPT as I think that could do my head in which ever way it goes. If I got a BFP I'd be second guessing it, as sometimes left over HCG from the trigger injection can give a false positive, and if its a BFN I would be devasted. I know of a girl who recently did a HPT on the day of her BT and it was a BFN and then her Blood Test showed a BFP! She is now about 3 months pregnant. So I think it will be best for my sanity if I just hold on for the Blood Test!

I am pretty olive skinned and my veins don't always seem to behave. I've had issues in the past, but all my bloodtests through the IVF cycle have been good, so I thought my days of 'hiding' veins were over. But alas they picked egg collection day to go into hiding! ]]> Wed, 29 Nov 2006 14:19:42 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4200&PID=90033&title=yay-i-have-dates-for-my-ivf-cycle#90033 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4200&PID=90025&title=yay-i-have-dates-for-my-ivf-cycle#90025 Author: ginger

Oh dear ...you'd make a terrible heroin addict if you have veins like that ... I'm extremely pale skinned (I am very lucky redhead ...I'm white as can be but I'm freckle-less!) and so they can see all my veins from start to finish and you just need to wave a needle in my direction and they all pop up!

I went under general for my wisdom teeth thank goodness! You poor thing!
Yes I told my DH that one of his tasks yesterday was to make sure I didn't do/say anything silly while out of it on drugs. But alas I wasn't that out of it!
They had a bit of trouble locating the vein and ended up going in at the wrist - not sure if that hindered the drugs at all... ]]> Wed, 29 Nov 2006 14:10:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4200&PID=90021&title=yay-i-have-dates-for-my-ivf-cycle#90021 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4200&PID=90016&title=yay-i-have-dates-for-my-ivf-cycle#90016 Author: ginger

Exactly

I know what you mean about the drugs ...when I had my wisdom teeth out, I was put under 'conscious sedation' - ergo I was awake, but not supposed to remember a thing about it. WRONGO! I remember every single thing *including* something going wrong with the anaesthetic and the dentist getting stuck into ripping one of the teeth out and having full feeling! Needless to say, I went into shock pretty quickly ...

Mind you, when I had my endo surgery, they used the same drugs adn they worked *beautifully*. I hate to imagine what happened while I was on them though ...Al won't say, he just breaks into a huge grin and/or sniggers when I ask ... Apparently I did give him an extremely loud sloppy kiss before going into theatre though ]]> Wed, 29 Nov 2006 14:03:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4200&PID=90016&title=yay-i-have-dates-for-my-ivf-cycle#90016 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4200&PID=90011&title=yay-i-have-dates-for-my-ivf-cycle#90011 Author: Lulu

Yeah well apparently I was supposed to just feel a little 'prick' as the drugs were supposed to take away the pain and I should have had little or no memory of the procedure. BUT I felt every movement of the dang needle and I remember the ENTIRE thing
Still, I have zero pain today and a little pain yesterday will be soooo worth it if I have a successful outcome! ]]> Wed, 29 Nov 2006 13:56:54 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4200&PID=90011&title=yay-i-have-dates-for-my-ivf-cycle#90011 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4200&PID=90008&title=yay-i-have-dates-for-my-ivf-cycle#90008 Author: ginger

They attach a loooonnng needle to a vaginal scan probe and put the needle through your uterus into your ovaries and 'suck' out the liquid from each follicle, which contains the egg. It then goes to the embryologist who is there too and he yells out how many eggs he's getting as he goes! Sorry if TMI!
