Infertility

my second home...

so i called for my WTF appointment after a failed ivf, and as soon as i said my name she knew right off that i wanted an evening appointment on their late day, and exactly what appointment i needed.  on one hand, it is comforting to be known.  on the other hand, i'm thinking i spend waaaaaaayyyyyy too much time there...

Re: my second home...

  • After a failure they should be accommodating! I do know that feeling though, which nurses and assistants are good, which to avoid.

    I hope they have some answers and encouragement for you! It's such a dreadful thing to go through.

  • Ha, I know exactly what you're talking about. Whenever I go in, everyone gets all happy and greets me by name. I'm like uhh, you guys are nice and all but I wish you didn't know me so well.

  • It is a great feeling to be comfortable with your nurse and clinic.   I'm glad that they were able to be so accomodating with you, especially after a failed cycle.

  • yeah, it's worse when i go in.  i don't even have to say my name then!  they're just like "go on back".  i even know which rooms to go in depending on the reason for visit.  i wonder if the other girls in the waiting room ever wonder about that...

    they are good to me though, and it does help.

  • I work in the same building as my RE, and not a very large building. I therefore see the RE, and staff around quite frequently and chat outside of IVF visits. Odd but also quite comforting.

    Multiple ectopics, 2 failed IVF's
    IVF #1: Did not get to ET, embies all failed PGD (major chromosomal defects)
    IVF #2: We have 2 chromosomally perfect embies as a result of PGD (Boy/Girl) 1 failed the thaw (Girl) Transferred 1, yet ended as a c/p
    Thought it was the end of our TTC Journey 6/20/2012
    SHOCK BFP 9/28/2012: IT'S A BOY! and everything is normal !!!!!!

    Little A born 38w 2d on 05/23/13 and is a true miracle for this IF Vet!

    wow, that must be convenient - and inconvenient at the same time.  i know some people have a lot of traveling involved to see their RE, so I have felt lucky that i only live 20 minutes away (especially for 6:30 am appointments).  but in the same building?  interesting.

    Convenient and disconcerting sometimes especially when building staff see me in both places (Clinic and my office) and my co-workers move through the building too. I am sure they all know even though I have told anyone here.

  • I am so glad they are being accomadating!  I completely understand the feeling of being too known at the RE's office.  It is nice that they remember you by name but at the same time sad that we have spent so much time there that they do know us.  I hope you get some answers!
