Who did IVF for family balancing how it went ? Thanks for your experience
Hi and welcome! Good luck!
Lot of us have used IVF including me. I didn't see any ethical issue with it. I am a Christian and I relied on faith to get me through the process. I always go back to the old preacher's story-
There is an old story preachers tell about a man trapped on the top of his house during a flood or hurricane or tsunami (insert your own natural disaster). The water is swiftly rising. As this man sits on his roof, fearful of being swept away by the current, he cries out to God, “God please deliver me.”
A few moments later, a farmer friend arrives with his boat. “Hey, friend, want a ride to safety?” he asks.
“No,” replies the man on top of his house. “God is going to deliver me.”
An hour later, the water is up to the gutters. A voluntary rescue person comes by on his yellow raft. “Hey, let’s get you off of there—and on to safety,” he yells.
But the man on top of his house refuses to go. “God is going to deliver me.”
Another hour passes and now the water is halfway up the roof. Roof Man is now on top of his chimney, nervously looking down at certain death and destruction.
Fortunately, a Red Cross volunteer swings by in a canoe and offers to ride Roof Man to safety. But Roof Man refuses. “No, God is going to deliver me.”
A couple of hours pass by and the water sweeps over the top of Roof Man’s house. He is carried away by the current and drowns. When he gets to Heaven, he meets Jesus and says, “I though you were going to deliver me.”
Jesus looks down at Roof Man and says, “I sent a boat, an inflatable raft, and a canoe—but you refused each one.”
IVF is like the raft to me. I jumped in.
Welcome! I don't know much about IVF but you have come to a great place :) the ladies here are very welcoming and helpful! I hope you get your princess!

Good luck. Im italian american...and I agree with nbp. I cannot do this process without my faith. God got me through the first cycle and has given me the stregnth to cycle again. Although, we have not told anyone in the family what we are doing except for my mom....I dont even want their judgement. If you are okay with your decision, than it is the right one. Good luck! Xx
By the way...it just occurred to me we have the same screen name. So we are kindred! Lol
