Intro to IFV board
glueck
member
Dear Ladies,
Many of you I know from my last year on the IF board, and before that the 3T board. I lurk on this board often, and I think I am ready to spend time with you ladies on a regular basis.
For those of you I have not yet met, I look forward to getting to know you better. My IF history is in my siggy (which I cannot seem to update for some reaso...technical glitch) , and in light of 2 failed IVF cycles and high FSH, MH and I have decided to continue our journey with DE IVF in our neighboring Czech Republic in Sept/Oct.
I just wanted to wave hello, and I hope you will have me!
Big hugs to all.

Re: Intro to IFV board
Dear Edwina! Thanks for your kind welcome. CR is an incredibly beautiful place. It was our first trip there, and in spite of the stress of the DE clinic search, we really had an eyeful of beauty...and dont get me started on the food. Yummo!
I cannot imagine biking from Prague to Vienna. That must have taken a week or so, yes? I can only imagine that it was glorious!

Thanks so much for the welcome, Mtlaurel. Making the decision was difficult, but now that we have made it, MH and I are feeling a great deal of relief. 50% chance, although far from any guarantee, is far more palatable to us than 5-10%.
Hope that you are hanging in there on your side of things. Sending you a big hug

Thanks Manda, Mc Irish, and JLynn- This board is absolutely wonderful, and I am grateful for the warm welcome. I never thought I would be a veteran anything in this point in my life, but here I am! At least I am in fabulous company.
Also, Mc Irish, I hope your mock cycle is going well.
How right you are about the come and go on the IF board. Once one is in this particular subset of IF, it gets harder and harder for even other IF'ers who are earlier in the process to understand. I can only imagine how those who have endured far more that I have feel. There are certainly many of you on this board so I enter this board with MUCH respect. I hope that I can offer as much support as I can receive here. I will still contribute on the IF board, as many of you do, to offer support to others, but I look forward to this board being my new home.
