    Infertilty support

    Apart from friends, family & your FC, are the any other places that you go to for support? Obviously there is here, but does anyone know of/or can suggest a good infertility support group or forum?

    Thanks in advance.

    i would probably talk to your clinic - they'll be able to refer you to other groups locally. i know monash have an affiliated group which has a website and forums. i am a member of ivf only forums, so they're out there - i would suggest maybe googling ivf forums or something. out of respect to bb, i won't post any links

    I havent found many other great forums, although through having a blog I have met SOOOOOO many other people who are going through the same thing, and through the comments I have received heaps of support - that may be an option?

    How about we turn this thread into a support section.

    Im feel down because Im fertile and know if my dh could father a child we would have a chance to have a child if we had baby making sex (BMS) over the last two days, today and tomorrow.

    Arghh why do I have to wait?? I want to be on my first try of IVF and not on the waiting list waitng for sperm donor.

    I'd have a chat with your clinic.
    I'm with QFG in Brisbane and there is a group called Friends of QFG and they have coffee catch ups and all sorts.
    Your clinic might have something the same.

    Hope you find something soon. These forums are great, but there is nothing like having a real life chat in person.
