Infertility

Two (totally unrelated) questions/polls...

#1  SUV or mini-van?  I used to swear I would never drive a mini-van but now I'm not so sure...

#2  is there anyone who doesn't think they want to do IVF?  or anyone who thought they wouldn't and did?

Re: Two (totally unrelated) questions/polls...

  • 1. SUV. I've driven my SIL's minivan, and it handles about as well as a brick.

    2. I didn't want to do IVF, and still don't.

  • I should re-phrase.  Nobody WANTS to do IVF...I mean anyone who thought that they wouldn't be able to (for moral/emotional reasons) but ended up doing it.

  • 1.) SUV. We just got a CRV and love it. It's a small SUV and has tons of room.

    2.) I'm not crazy about IVF, but it is my best chance at getting pregnant, so I will do it.

  • 1. I have driven a minivan in the past, and I didn't mind it. I think if we need one, it would be fine.

    2. I have never wanted to do IVF and never will.

  • 1. SUV... that will be the next car we buy

    2. DH doesn't want to do IVF. Right now we are stopping after IUI. We will see when I get a new job if my insurance covers IF treatments, and if it does it may convince him to go to IVF, but I'm not sure.

  • 1. SUV

    2. I highly doubt that I'd ever do IVF. My frame of mind may change, of course, but right now, I don't think I'd ever do it.

  • #1? SUV or mini-van? ?neither- i drive a station wagon and i absolutely love it (but its a cool VW wagon). ?#2? is there anyone who doesn't think they want to do IVF?? or anyone who thought they wouldn't and did? i don't know if we could afford it. so i guess we'll see if we get to that point.?

  • 1. I've kind of started car shopping since my Taurus is 12 years old.  I don't want a big car (we're a 1 car home; DH has a commuter pass for the public transit system that his work pays for) because I do a lot of driving in the city for my job.  Minivans all feel huge to me.  I rather like the Hyundai Tuscon (small SUV) but am still looking.

    2. We've talked about it & since we have good insurance (80% coverage) we will try IVF if it comes to it.

  • 1.) SUV, we're actually car shopping for a new one right now.

    2.) DH does not feel comfortable with IVF. Thankfully we are still a decent way from having to consider that route but we'd probably revisit the convo if it comes to that.

  • 1. SUV, totally.

    2. I didn't really want to consider IVF (and we still might not have to if IUI's work for us), but after DH told me he wasn't prepared to consider adoption, I decided that I'd do whatever I could to conceive.

  • #1  SUV or mini-van?  I think a mini-van. SIL has one and it's awesome,my nephew watches his DVDs and stuff on long car rides and a lot of shopping bags fit in the back :)

    #2  is there anyone who doesn't think they want to do IVF?  or anyone who thought they wouldn't and did? Ack...I've been talkng to my priest about this and as of now I just don't know. He said to do whatever it takes for us to become parents, but I still feel conflicted. Anyhoo- I dont know!

      1. SUV.  I just don't think my DH who is totally into cars would ever let a mini van be parked in his driveway.  Although I have heard they are more convenient than a SUV.
      2. I always knew I would do IVF.  The question for us was how many fresh cycles we would do since we are OOP.  We decided on 2 fresh and as many frozen as we can. 

     

  • 1 - No doubt about it - SUV. I am adamantly opposed to mini-vans no matter how smart/efficient/spacey they are.

    2 - We're still too early in the process to really decide about IVF, but I'm leaning against it. DH and I decided we'd make each decision as it comes to us so we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
