Please Introduce Yourself!

Hi everyone! My name is Kim and my partner of ten years is Kaylee! We have just started our journey of trying to conceive through Melbourne Ivf with dr Melissa Cameron after 12 months trying with a known donor whom unfortunately found out he had prostate problems! We are very excited about the possibility of finally conceiving and have decided to try iui first with donor sperm! Was wondering if anyone had experience with dr Melissa Cameron and was successful with their treatment? We have found her to be wonderful so far and are hoping 2013 may finally be our year! Looking forward to hearing any replies!

Hi, I've replied to your post on my previous thread but thought Id drop by and say hello here too!

We have been seeing Dr Cameron since April this year and have found her to be so supportive and helpful. We have been through two unsuccessful IUI cycles with donor sperm and are planning to start IVF early next year. We're really hoping that 2013 is our year.

Its really nice to hear from a couple living in Melbourne going through a similiar experience to us.

Good luck with everything and keep in touch

Hello,

I'm kind of doing the rounds on a few different forums introducing myself.

My DP and I are in our 20's in QLD and looking to try later in the year using IUI and donor sperm through QFG.

Every day we're learning something new but it's still exciting times!

Talk to you soon

Hi to both newbies on this forum, we saw your msg's and just wanted to wish both couples the best of luck with your experiences trying to get pregnant! My partner Kaylee and I are lucky enough to be able to say that on our third try through MIVF that we were successful!!! Yay, we are both so excited, so far we are 2months and 4days pregnant, so not quite past that safe point yet but so far, things have been looking good! We attempted 2 IUI's before moving onto ICSI, where we had 7 eggs removed and two good embryos placed back in and with a whole lot of luck, we were blessed with one of them taking! So obviously we would recommend that process over IUI's, only because your odds are much greater! This will be our first child, so we are so nervously excited to be experiencing this blessing! The only thing troubling us both is that we are unsure whether I should go back to work, or stay at home away from the environment I would be in there, which is a company that manufactures glue! I don't want to be exposed to anything that would harm our baby! I haven't been there since the egg removal, except 1 day yesterday! And it makes us nervous to think I may do any harm to our beautiful bub before he/she is born! But in the same sense, ivf isn't cheap and all our savings has been drained! Sorry for dragging on, but we are very unsure of what to do and thought it might help putting it down in writing! Anyway, best of luck to you all, sending u all positive vibes and hoping your dreams come true as ours have! : )

Thanks fir the good wishes. Wr are more hopefull this cycle. This first iui was very rough on me. I'm very emotional to start with so added any form of hormone makes it interesting. We are starting again with clomid and progestrone supplements and hopping that my body will be better adjusted to all the poking and proding and hormones. Best of luck everyone.

Newbie to this whole game, and glad to find there's a thread that might help my partner and I sort through the options. We're currently looking at IUI, but it's not clear whether it's that much better than home insemination really?

We're also wondering whether anyone has seen any fertility clinics in Australia using the Evie, which seems to up the chances of pregnancy with IUI?

Thoughts welcome!
