Hi everyone,

I just wanted to thank you all for creating this thread & contributing to it. I stumbled across it tonight & it couldn't have been discovered at a better time. We're in the middle of our 1st IVF - something I always said I'd NEVER do. Funny how life changes when you have no choice!

We're due for EPU either Good Friday or Easter Monday, & a family member informed me last night that the entire family has decided to come to our place for an easter BBQ (1st time mentioned to us, I should add.) & totally missed the point when I explained that we would be in Sydney at some stage that wknd for the procedure & therefore couldn't commit(nicely trying to say thanks, but it won't be happening). At this point I can't begin to fathem preparing the house for a gathering, let-a-lone how emotional we will be having the procedure done for the 1st time. She just responded "we dont mind. we're coming for the company, not the house"

DH & I both agree that this should be part of the IVF booklet/brochures handed out, but marked for family/friends/work collegues.

If I hear one more story "i knew someone who fell naturally once they stopped" or "my friend did that and they never had those issues" I'm going to email your commandments to everyone I know!

Thank you for the best laugh I've had in months!
