    Goodluck Mrs M. We used Westmead and they were great. I needed extra med and scans on top of what i had cause i had plenty of eggs but they werent getting big enough fast enough and it was all included. Goodluck
    Hey Smithy hows things going? Has AF made her grand entrance yet?

    Sorry cant help you there i had a male fertility specialist and at the clinic i had abit of both. Leave your pride at the front door and pick it up on the way out is my moto. As long as they get the job done and get it done right thats all that matters!
    Hey Smithy pill popping thats wonderful, one step closer for you darln.
    I took Breah to the clinic today to show her off and to thank them for giving her life.
    They said to me is she always this happy, always full of smilies and always up for a chat. Lol i guess shes like her mum there.
    Take care XX

    Hi Sarah,

    Dr Lorance Melhem is my gynaecologist and she is fantastic!

    I haven't gone through her as a FS as I am using a different service, but I would heartily recommend her as a gynae!

    HELLO AND WELCOME KRISSY...
    GOOD LUK WITH YOUR IVF HUN ITS A VERY LONG JOURNEY BUT IM SURE YOULL BE FINE AND I HOPE YOU GET YOUR BFP FIRST GO .
    we are going through westmead this time and from the day we seen our fs we just had to wait for af to come to start the pill,BUT.. as we have already been through ivf 2 times we had already had all out tests and SA done so that saves time .
    then you take the pill and syneral and injections and all up our actuall cycle takes nearly 7 weeks that is full IVF-ICSI
    so have you had all your testing done hun ?? then if all is set to go really its up to you as to when you start
    and best of luk to you
