DH and I did our first round of IVF in August - he has a blockage so they have to operate to get sperm out of him
I dont think anyone here will lie and tell you it is easy because it isnt, but we are all here to help and support each other. Feel free to ask questions, especially if there is something you dont understand, the girls here have helped me understand so much about the IVF process.
Also do yourself a favour and buy the book making babies by Theresa Miller - It is all about peoples personal IVF stories. It really shows that everyone has a different journey.
Welcome to BB! There are so many lovely women here, who have some wonderful advice and experiences.
We needed IVF due to my endometriosis and blocked tubes - it was pretty severe and I had it removed. It took us 2 years to get our head around the fact that we needed to do IVF after that though, we found that we had to be in the right head space.
I found the whole IVF process to be very straightforward, not as stressful as I had anticipated (due to a very supportive FS) and our first cycle was a success.
I also did acupuncture along with my cycle, and feel that helped tremendously.
I am sure that as you go along, you'll have loadsssssss of questions which is what BB is really good for.
