Hi Bibby and Vanessa,<br>we went to Manchester Royal Infirmary on 10th December for our first IVF meeting on the NHS with about 80 other couples as predicted, hosted by Dr.Lieberman.<br>Found it very informative, I even asked a question at the end which being a very shy person i think i supassed myself!.<br>We have been told that we only have another six months to go, so Vanessa , hopefully you won't wait too long now.<br>Husband gave up smoking 10 weeks ago which is also one of the things required so come the new year the ball will start to roll !!!<br>roll on 2003 and i'll keep you informed of our progress.<br><br>Take Care<br>Julie M<br>XXX
Hurray!!!<br>I have just recieved their information pack to get forms signed by gp etc and have more blood taken. Only problem is that because my last cycle of clomid failed I haven't had a period yet to go and start them!!!<br>Six months sounds ages when you are waiting but I am sure it will fly by!! I am glad it was informative and you are very brave to have spoken up, I think I would just shrivel at the back!!!<br>Wishing you a very happy Christmas...this time next year you could be pregnant! <br>Love Vanessa xx
Hi Julie,<br><br>Really pleased you've been able to get on St Mary's list - what did you think of Dr Leiberman? He's a real character, isn't he? <br><br>I'm sure the time will fly by - does this mean we're not going to be cycle buddies at MFS now? That'll be a shame, I was looking forward to maybe putting a face to the name.<br><br>Hoping that you and your dh have a lovely Christmas, and lets arrange a chat for after the New Year.<br><br>Lots of Love - Take Care<br><br><br>Fiona xxx<br><br>
