I have had one round if Ivf which failed, am due to start next round in September. I'm suddenly too scared to go ahead with it.

There are two reasons for this, two other women in my circle of friends had multiple rounds of ivf, one had three rounds, stopped found she had ovarian cancer and died last year, another friend had two rounds and had just been diagnosed with aggressive breast cancer, there is nothing that can be done its tragic.

The sane part of me realises its probably nothing to do with all the ivf drugs, but there is a niggling worry that just won't go away.

Just so confused

Can you see a counsellor so that you have someone neutral to discuss your (understandable) fears with? Someone who could help you clarify your thoughts and feelings?

What does your DP think?

Might be a good idea. Dp is not keen to go ahead. He wants to look at surrogacy, but then then that's just making another woman take the drugs.

why not adopt? I am adopted and my mum made the decision instead of the ivf route and never regretted it.

probably because I am pretty awesome Wink
