Today is my IVF consult- I'm back! updated at bottom
I am feeling so nervous and emotional about it. I guess I am not sure what to expect. Anyone know what I should expect?? TIA?

Re: Today is my IVF consult
Don't be nervous it is fine.
Depending where you go (I go to North Shore) The Dr will go through your case notes and will make recommendations based on your case history. They will then talk you through the IVF protocol, what happens & when etc. Don't be afraid to ask questions, might be a good idea to write them down, cos if you are like me they'll totally go out of your head once in front of the Dr.
I know it can feel a bit daunting, but don't be nervous, you are on your way to getting your BFP!

Re: Today is my IVF consult
Thanks, I go to North Shore as well.
I guess I should start thinking of questions to ask.

Re: Today is my IVF consult
So my consult went well. It was informative info about the process and how he thinks I am a good candidate. He would like to me start after another month or two, due to my recent ectopic. I guess its the right thing to do. I am just ready to get it started! He said that my chances of getting pg are around 48%. Is that what everyone else was told? Thanks guys!!! I am glad its over.

I am glad it went well - nothing to be nervous of right?
They haven't given me a percentage - quite frankly it probably wouldn't be great, so I'd rather not know!
Good luck

Re: Today is my IVF consult- I'm back! updated at bottom
Sounds great!!!!!!!!! so happy your moving forward!!
I was told by Dr. chu she felt ( seeing me constantly) my Chance for success was 50-60%
Dr. Scholl did my IVF consult and put our Chance for success at less then 30%. ( but obviously we beat the odds and SO WILL YOU!)
