Where are you from?

RacheleLynn12 · August 2016

@colleen0516 not from there, but we vacation on fishers island every year at my husbands family house.

caseyw8784 · August 2016

@Colleen0516 - what area are you from? I think I'm one of those you mentioned...DH is from LI and (sometimes) hates living up here in Patriots and Bruins territory!

Colleen0516 · August 2016

@caseyw8784 Yes lol I'm from Suffolk county! Sayville. Where did your husband grow up?

caseyw8784 · August 2016

@Colleen0516 - he's from Suffolk County too...he grew up in South Setauket! (though, I think the post office/google recognizes his address as in Centereach? ::shrugs::) I don't yet know much about surrounding towns; is that relatively close?

meli123k · August 2016

Hi Everyone! I'm 30 and from Maryland. We go to Shady Grove Fertility, which I see a couple others on here use as well

So far we've been very happy with them.

Ferrell2B · August 2016

@babylonghorn16 I'm in SA too!! I see Dr. James at the Texas Fertility Specialists. She is so patient and very encouraging. I think she had some difficulties with pregnancy and now has twins lol.
I'm actually a little bummed. I go in for blood HCG test tomorrow and I took a home pregnancy and it was neg so I'm thinking it's not gonna work out this month. On to another cycle lol. =D
It's awesome to meet another Texan especially in the same city!!

SanBL · August 2016

@babylonghorn16 and @Ferrell2B We visited SA this summer, we loved the Riverwalk!! Such a nice place! We spent so much time there that we didn't even see anything else in the city lol

babylonghorn16 · August 2016

@Ferrell2B oh wow! How cool to find another person in San Antonio! I'm sorry you feel like this month didn't work. Did you do IUI or IVF? Hope your beta proves that HPT wrong!

@SanBL aw yay! The Riverwalk will definitely keep you busy! Next time you're in town you should visit the King William district. Has some beautiful historic homes with cool bars, shops, and art galleries scattered about. Glad you enjoyed your visit!!

Ferrell2B · August 2016

@SanBL Aww that's awesome. There is definitely lots to do in SA!! The Riverwalk is a must, so I'm glad you got to at least do that =D

@babylonghorn16 No, we are not on IUI or IVF yet. We are doing Femara and TI. This was our first cycle with anything, we did all natural for the last 2 years. lol Thank you for the positive thoughts! I hope I'm wrong too.

Colleen0516 · August 2016

@caseyw8784 it's about 15 minutes from me! Not far at all!!

PNW12RN · August 2016

MrsMcMilkshakes I am 38 and go to Pacific Northwest Fertility in Seattle. It is literally 3 blocks away from the hospital where I work, so REALLY convenient for me! I was sort of sent there in a daze when I was diagnosed with cancer and didn't specifically choose them, but I really like Dr Lorna Marshall, my primary RE. She is awesome, and I wouldn't consider going to any of the other local clinics. Also, at least a dozen people I know at work have gone with this same clinic for a variety of reasons (I'm the only one without a pregnancy yet) from a lesbian couple who went twice (IUI for each of them, 2 years apart), a woman with a gene translocation (twins with IVF/PGD), etc. I'd highly recommend this clinic.

SanBL · August 2016

@babylonghorn16 thanks for the tip, I'll definitely go there next time!

tcolechia · August 2016

Hi everyone! I'm 29 from Rhode Island. My RE is at Women & Infants Center for Reproduction and Infertility. Am I the only RI girl here?

BornReady · August 2016

I grew up in RI @tcolechia! I currently live in mass, but spend a lot of time there still. I use the Boston IVF clinics and am often in their providence office.

tcolechia · August 2016

@BornReady Wow! That's great to know that I'm not the only one here from RI. It's such a small state. I was looking into Boston IVF before starting at W&I. One of my friends goes to that office and really likes it there.

caseyw8784 · August 2016

@tcolechia - I'm from MA but we spent every summer growing up in RI, and my parents live there full time now! welcome!

tcolechia · August 2016

@caseyw8784 - RI is a great place to be in the summer time! What fertility clinic are you @?

caseyw8784 · August 2016

@tcolechia - I'm using Fertility Centers of New England. They have multiple locations around eastern MA, including both near my house and near my office, so it's really convenient!

thucks · August 2016

I'm from Danville Illinois but I attend the Indiana Fertility Institute in Indianapolis. I see Jr. Jarrett there. I do all my BW and US in 40 min away Champaign Il and then my ER and ET's are all 2 hrs away in Indianapolis. Dr. J. comes to Champaign once a week for consultations.

rmarble23 · August 2016

@tcolechia im from MA but i went to JWU, providence is my absolute favorite city, feels so much like home, unfortunately DH is the exact opposite and would like to be further into the sticks than we currently are

Wriggler · August 2016

I'm from San Diego. We are going to Reproductive sciences medical center, so far very impressed, they're being super nice and helpful, guiding us through our first step into the world of IVF.

kyrgyzshan · August 2016

Hi all!! I'm 35. Born and raised in the Dallas, Texas area. For the last 5.5 years I've lived in Massachusetts. DH and I bought a house in Chelmsford (north west of the city) and I am working with IVF New England in Lexington with my RE at a Harvard Vanguard office in Burlington. Love to see the other Bostonians!!

babylonghorn16 · August 2016

@kyrgyzshan hi to another Texan! I have a bunch of friends from Dallas and my brother lives in Carrolton! Hope you're enjoying Boston!

mjacks16 · August 2016

This thread is great! I just turned 33 in July and I live in Brooklyn, NY and see Dr Luk at Neway Fertility in the city. I'm originally from southern Virginia, and have lived in Atlanta, GA and Anchorage, AK before moving to NYC.

bells52000 · August 2016

Welcome! I find this thread fascinating! Love how people have connected all around the country.

C-k · August 2016

Hi everyone, I'm from Melbourne, Australia! Ha... I may be the only one

PurplePumpernickel · August 2016

Hi Everyone! I'm a native New Englander - grew up in CT, live and work in Boston. I'm also at Fertility Centers of New England (I saw another fellow FCNE patient a few pages earlier). I like it because I can drop in on my way to work to get my blood and ultrasound done, then go around the corner to the Thinking Cup for excellent coffee.

caseyw8784 · August 2016

@PurplePumpernickel - I go to FCNE! and there's one other too! @LawDoll2014 does too. Which office is the Thinking Cup nearby? I usually get my bloodwork done at the Reading office and there's a Starbucks across the street that I stop at afterwards on my way to work...

PurplePumpernickel · August 2016

@caseyw8784 Thinking Cup is by the one in Boston, on Boylston Street - it is one block over, on Newbury. Also great baked goods!

My friend went there too, and she'd alternate between Thinking Cup and Flour (near Back Bay Station).

caseyw8784 · August 2016

@PurplePumpernickel - Ah, ok! I've only been to the Boylston office for actual meetings with Dr. Plante...then we have to leave quickly to DH and I can get to work! Maybe next time I'll take a side trip over to Thinking Cup. I LOVE Flour, but only have been to the Seaport and Cambridge locations...

mercury94 · September 2016

@babylonghorn16 I also went to UT in Austin. Undergrad and Law. Hook 'em!

@kyrgyzshan I'm originally from Fort Worth and spent 2 years in Boston. It was nice, but cold and far from my whole family, so I'm glad to be back in Texas.

I'm 31 and I live in south Texas near the coast.

mercury94 · September 2016

@PurplePumpernickel @caseyw8784 Wow, I haven't thought about Flour in so long. I loved that place. Used to go all the time when I lived in Boston. There was one right by my office.

babylonghorn16 · September 2016

@bridge-and-wall Fellow Texan and Longhorn?! Amazing!

WELCOME and Hook 'em! I got my undergrad from McCombs. We were probably on campus at the same time! Do you go to a clinic by the coast, or do you travel to San Antonio? If SA, what office?

mercury94 · September 2016

@babylonghorn16 My doc is down here. The clinics in SA and Houston are better and I might end up there if this journey continues for a long time, but I'm going to exhaust all possibilities here first. I just don't have the sick leave at work to make all those long drives.

babylonghorn16 · September 2016

@bridge-and-wall I completely understand. I hope your journey doesn't last long! If you do end up wanting to see a doc in SA, I highly recommend Dr. Balthazar at RMA of Texas! Another woman on here traveled to SA and said she only drove up for major appointments. All blood work and monitoring was done at her local OB/GYN. Hope that helps! GL!

mercury94 · September 2016

@babylonghorn16 Thanks for all the support and suggestion of a good place in SA. I forgot to mention before, I was in undergrad the same years as Vince Young. 03-06. It was a good time to be a Longhorn.

I was in law school at one of the worst times to be a Longhorn. Had season tickets in 2010 and saw a lot of losses.

babylonghorn16 · September 2016

@bridge-and-wall ah jealous! I caught the awful years... '07-'11. Well I guess '07-'09 wasn't too bad... but my senior year was painful. Looking forward to seeing what they've got up their sleeves this year!
