Would Letrozole help having a cycle?
Hi, I’ve been TTC for more than 2 years now and I’m 34 but with extremely irregular cycles we have very little chance of success. I had 2 miscarriages one was a missed miscarriage at 12wks and then a pregnancy of unknown location that ended up in a miscarriage. I’m very confident in my daily testing of ovulation an...
Anti-D injection
Anyone had the anti-d injection yet ? What was your experience like ? When were you contacted to book it in ? I'm 28 weeks and have been told by my midwife that I will need to have it but haven't heard anything further.

IVF stims and depression
I’m on day 6 of my IVF medications and feeling weepy, sadness, depressed, and fatigue… I’m not going crazy, right? It’s the side effects? Guess I’m just looking for some solidarity. I’ve struggled with anxiety but this feels different.
