Hello from New Zealand..newbie here!

Post by Mrs Mac »

Hello there! My name is Nadine. I live in the South Island of New Zealand.

My hubby and I have been trying for 7 years to get pregnant. Last year we FINALLY got into the fertility clinic. It seems that hubby has a very low sperm count, and due to endometriosis, I have ALOT of scarring and only one ovary that works! (Can I get a yahooo)...

Anyway, this year we are supposed to be starting IVF. We are just waiting to hear from the hospital any time now to find out what happens next....I think I have to go in and learn how to give myself injections....

Ya know, I can handle injections...Ive had HUNDREDS of them..but giving myself an injection every day is something else....

I have to admit, Im getting alittle scared now that its getting closer...

Anyway! I was wondering, and this is no biggy - but are there other Kiwis here? If not that is FINE....I am just THRILLED to have found this place! I have a womens group on msn, but none of the women are going thru or about to go thru ivf...so I dont have ANYONE to talk to about this ...

You have NO idea how relieved I am to have found this! Thank you SO MUCH for allowing me to join!

I HOPE to get to know you all soon! Take care, big hugs and STAY STRONG.

Nadine (Mrs Mac) :)

I wish you all the best. I went thru ivf 15 years ago and my daughter will be 15 next month, so yep, anything is possible ;)

mrs mac: Welcome to the forum! You do have fellow kiwis on the board.. although i don't happen to be one of them (not that i wouldn't like to move down there... fab country you have down there, btw!). The ivf process is exciting.. and this is a great place to be. Don't know how i would have survived the last few months without the support of these great ladies! Good luck!

Thanks for your reply ( It's Ang) I have mercy on your poor Husband, yeah right make him suffer.

I have a good trick when it comes to injection time !!!!!!! make sure you these are all done in front on husdand for maximum effect as it seems to get my husband making me a cup of tea in the morning but I am working on dinner and house work, I will ket you know.

Mrs Mac,

I'll drop you a message later this evening but I just wanted to say Welcome !!!!!

I'm a fellow kiwi (I live in Wellington) and we have just started our first IVF cycle this month.

I'd love to keep in touch with other kiwi's going though all this.
