To get excited about starting ivf?

Speaking to my friend today who knows all about mine and my partners struggle to concieve, we are starting our first icsi the end of this year time.
We have mfi and probably won’t ever concieve naturally after trying for 6+years.
My friend said I am a fool for getting my hopes up as it probably won’t work and it took 7 goes for her cousin to even see a bfp.
I thought sorry but after years of me getting nowhere near having a bfp or even a baby I’m actually excited ( odviously very nervous) to start the icsi as it’s the only chance we’ve got.
I know ivf is a hard thing to go through and it’s more than likely not to work on the first go, but I haven’t any fertility issues myself and have got pregnant previously with an ex partner. We are also both nearly 30 so I’m assuming our chances are pretty high despite my ohs severe male factor.
We got into the conversation this afternoon because I had bought a baby teddy after a very hard day the other week ( baby showers and announcements galore the entire week) got me really down so I bought it while browsing in a shop, she said it was odd.
I’ve never bought anything before.
Am I being and idiot and setting myself up for major disappointment?

Try not to pay any attention to the stats OP. Either it will work or it won’t, and there’s every reason it should work for you. It worked first time for me. Excited for you, good luck 💐
