A few people have had cycles or FETs cancelled already. Lots of us are just waiting and seeing. I've not heard from mine yet but it seems pretty likely from what they have said and how everything is going at the moment.

There is a thread on this here: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/infertility/4119429-Cancelled-FET-due-to-COVID

Hopefully won't affect private clinics. We did have a second lockdown in November and clinics stayed open then and everyone was allowed to travel for medical appointments in general. However, schools were open during the second lockdown and it seems they will close this time.

And I wonder if nurseries will close too 🤦‍♀️ Then ds to look after while doing ivf another hurdle

Create have said they will remain open, so presume it will be the same for all private clinics.

Thanks @IslandStars ❤️ @Freya2015 really going you get all your treatment done with it being affected . It’s stressful enough doing ivf without this too xx
