Let me tell you Belle,it is scary as!! But in saying that, I'm onto my third day of injections & it's not nearly as scary as I first had anticipated. I've not done the entire thing yet, just two injections LOL!

There are quite a few appointments beforehand, we had 3 that were about an hour long & our final one where we got instructions for the injections was 2 hours. Then you'll do all the testing, semen analysis & other bits n pieces for you. Once in the IVF cycle, our clinic (SIVF) has a system where all blood tests & ultrasounds are done between 7.30 & 9.00am so there is minimal disruption to work. You need to have a full day off for egg pick up and then I think only a short time, like an hour or two, for the embryo transfer.
