IVF/ICSI/FET OCTOBER "4 LEAF CLOVER" CYCLE-Anyone joining me?*** UPDATES ON PAGE 1***

[Sammy2009]

Over here we don't have an NHS everyone has to have private health care at about 150 euros per person per month but then I suppose NHS contributions are not much less than that... It's virtually the same rule throughout holland, 3 ivf, 6 IUI and well like I say unlimited FET either single or two embies put back but you have to use frozen before another fresh cycle. Here everything is insured so soon I will go and get a brace for my bottom teeth since this was about 3000 pounds in the UK!!! well you gotta milk them for what you can eh? I pay everymonth for it! Ha ha x

lol yeah get everything done that you can

It's a shame they don't do cover for plastic surgery... I could have a complete body over haul!!! Lol

I think the reason that you get so many free tries is because they are so freaking crap at it... It takes them about 20 chances to get you god damn pregnant here! Lol

IVF is supposed to be good in Belgium, they will put you to sleep for egg collection and monitor you better... We are going to try to go there but do not know if our insurance covers us abroad x

:wave: Just popping in to introduce myself. I didn't know there was another October thread going on!!

Been TTC for nearly five years and have MF problems.

I'm doing my first ICSI in October. Starting BCP on Monday so hopefully will know more dates and things when I talk to them Monday. We were given a provisional EC date of sometime in the week beginning 18 October.

Sounds like you are all experts in here so I'll be popping in with loads of questions when it gets closer!!

Hi, god no.... i dont know where else we can go i cant really find any good recommendations. There are loads for Belgium and apparently they are much better at IVF than in Holland but i think the insurance company pick your hospital for you and i dont know if a) you can pick your own or b) you can cross the border to Belgium for treatment. We will call them next week to ask and ill keep you posted! I really want to go to a hospital in Belgium though as it has great results (nothing guaranteed of course!)

 

[Sammy2009]

Where is everybody today... It's very quiet on the forum!

 

[Sammy2009]

Well since ovulation is coming up in a few days I suggested OH and I practise some BD'ing so I go upstairs and say "sex later honey?" and he replies "why?"

Lol... My god he is so used to no sex after the month after month of taking meds and most of the time either not feeling like sex or not able to have sex that now he thinks it's not normal anymore for me to suggest being intimate!

It's good to be off the meds for a couple of months I must admit!

Hi guys

I'm going to join you guys too if you'll have me ... I was on the other thread but it now seems redundant.

I don't know how 'active' I'll be during my treatment - after four fresh cycles, the need to ask questions and offer advice may well have disappeared for me, but time will tell. Just in case I'm not about much, I just want to wish everyone lots of luck.

Hi Girls

Just waiting to start my FET but AF has gone awol. How long do you girls think I should leave it before ringing hospital to ask for something to start me off. Before IVF my period was every 26-28 days and has been for 22 years. Now I am on day 52 it will be 2 months on the 2nd Sept? Look forward to your advice x

Hi Hun and welcome!!!!

I have been through a few procedures also... FET IUI IVF X 2... I think most if us in here are now a few tries along the way BUT this is going to be the lucky thread and there are going to be lots of big fat juicy BFP's in here before you know it!!!

I have just had a failed ivf and we go on holiday at the weekend so I can't start again until October due to how my cycles fall. We also have to find a new hospital in that time so it's a bit of a rush!

The girls on this thread are lovely and very supportive so I'm sure you will get loads of support and advice... Even if you don't ask for it!!!! Lol. Good luck!!! Xxx

 

[wrightywales]

Maybe she just wants to double check some details before they send the forms out? Don't worry Hun im sure it's nothing important x

I'm so tired today.. I slept bad last night as it was hot but really windy and some freaking mosquito kept feeding on me! Grrrr!!! It's not even hot enough in this country for bloody Mosquitos!

BD'ing tonight is gonna be a chore! Lol x

 

[wrightywales]

phew she just phoned now with a big apology for ringing me so late and you were right she was just checking some details and she said the forms are in the post so just waiting for AF now.

i wouldnt know what a mosquito looks like and i would defo squish it if it came anywhere near me lol. really do hate all bugs make my skin crawl.

i know what you mean about it feeling like a chore i went through that stage when we found out we wernt gonna get our dream that way but now hubby just says its all practise. practise for what i dont know. i aint planning on being a porn star roflmfao
