Previous marriage divorce papers

Has anyone else had their clinic request previous marriage divorce papers? My clinic wants my decree absolute from a marriage that ended 14 years ago, which I think is ridiculous! I'm unsure what that has to do with my current IVF.

Access Fertility help

My husband and I are considering taking the leap and doing IVF after nearly 2 years of TTC and three losses. I have low follicle count (only 5 follicles on both scans) and lowish AMH.

Mira Fertilty

Has anyone used the mira fertility machine and got success stories/think it’s worth the money? I’m really contemplating trying it but already feel like I’ve spent a fortune on stuff and is it all just the same thing?

Egg/Embryo quality

I just did my first round of IVF and our transfer failed. Our embryo was graded at 3BC which is considered poor. Has anyone had low/poor quality embryos and gone on to do further rounds of IVF and produce higher quality embryos? If so what did you do different second time?

IUD

Has anyone ever gotten pregnant on the iud? I’ve had it for a year and it’s been great but my hubby and I did the deed right after my period which we always do. Now it’s been almost 2 weeks and my boobs are killing me and my emotions are everywhere. Please say I’m crazy.

IUD

Hello ladies, I’m trying to get an IUD and I’m very scared I heard a lot of horrible stories and I’m not willing to go through another pain trauma. Do you know if in Canada I can ask them to put me to sleep or anything that will make the process easier? Also what IUD do you recommend

Do’s and dont’s after a FET when you have a toddler

My son is 14 months old and he is an IVF baby who I fell pregnant with on the first FET. I was on my own when I had the FET to get pregnant with him as my husband was away for work and I obviously didn’t have another child so I could just rest and not do too much. However, tomorrow I am having a FET for a second ch...
