Hi there, ICLW'ers!

Welcome to all of you from ICLW! Feel free to look around, put your feet up and stay awhile!

We have been trying to conceive for eight years with only a few miscarriages to show for it. I only ovulate a couple times a year, and do not respond to clomid at all. Our next step is IVF in march or April of 2012! I am scared, excited and apprehensive. After so long it seems dangerous to feel hopeful.

Hi im visiting from ICLW!! I had seen your post on how you will pay for IVF. Have you heard of Compassionate Care through Life Line? It’s a grant that helps pay for meds me and my husband got approved within a few days back in August. It has helped us tremendously. There are only a few guidelines some say there is a certain amount you and your spouse have to make annually an order to be considered but that is not the case. I was concerned about this but after talking to one of their representative she assured me there is no set amount. Maybe it’s something you can look into, if you havent already.

I can only imagine the stress of IVF costs are on you! Hubby and I haven't gotten there yet and I'm not sure it would be feasible for us. Good luck on your journey!

Hi from ICLW!

We too are looking the prospect of IVF this Winter/Spring. If only we could win the lottery!

A neighbor here had an adoption fundraiser and raised almost 7k. Have you thought about doing something like that for your IVF? They got TONS of donations of stuff people were looking to get rid of.

Fingers crossed!

Hello! I am visiting from the ICLW! One of my dear friends never ovulated and didn't respond to clomid either. She got pregnant on her first IVF and is currently pregnant with her second via IVF.

Happy ICLW #16
