Staring IVF in ChCh

Hi all I know there is another area called coping with infertility however, it seems very quiet and thought "well I am TTC" after all . My name is Lorna and I am 34 my DH is 35. We have just reached the top of the waiting list in CHCH and have the consent day in two weeks. We have been LTTC for ten years and in that time had three miscarriages including an ectopic where I lost a tube. My AMH is also very low and my DH has boderline problems. Would love to share this journey with people and share our experiences. We live in Nelson. Look forward to hearing from anyone who maybe starting IVF either in ChCh or the rest of the country

Hi Lorna. We've just have 4 failed iui and now waiting for our review appt to see what happens next. It's likely ivf and we're looking at paying (we're qual for public but I'm impatient) so could be doing it all soon too. Wishing you the best of luck and looking forward to hearing how it goes.

ETA - we're in the north island and go through fert associates in Wellington.

Hi all, sorry we are in this boat in the first place but glad to have some buddies. We go for our orientation day on Monday for consent signing etc so hopefully will find out when our IVF will start I am hoping Sept. Will keep you posted and look forward to hearing how you all doing.

It would be good to hear how your orientation goes on Monday Lorna

Good luck with finding out tomorrow Beta!!!!!!

Lorna how did today go?
Our review was ok. Sending me for a hsg test before deciding what to do next so no idea when / if we 'll have ivf. So am back to the wretched waiting waiting waiting for me.

Hey guys, not heard from anyone in a while how are you all?

Hi babycrazy glad to hear that it was all clear and hope you get to do IVF very soon :-)

Have you heard anything today babycrazy? I am always missing calls from FA, it angers me every time lol

Hi Everyone
Babycrazy knows me well, we are cycle buddies and I also have just been through 4 IUI rounds that were unsuccessful
I am back to day one today, but feel ok about it because we have a plan
Hysterscopy next Wednesday, holiday and then IVF next month

Lorna - What was you AMH level, mine was 4.35 so I am in the orange zone so not sure how many eggs we will get but the doctor is still hopeful for 6

Reddahlia - I think we are both using FA Hamilton as I remember you mentioning Jackie Burnett, Acupuncturist
Where are you in your cycle, we might be doing it at the same time.

Me - 35 (just about 36) DH 37, been TTC for 2 and a half years
Still awaiting my BFP

Hi babynumberone, I'm just starting my injections tomorrow so am a bit behind you, but absolutely praying for your positive result!
