First IVF - nervous, emotional and overwhelmed

Rachel

So, we've been ttc for 3 years now. The last year has been endless tests, consultations etc.

Some family and friends know but not many. We can't stand the "your time will come" and "just relax it will happen". The less that know the better.

The past few years have been a roller coaster of emotions, breakdowns and sympathy. My husband is less of an emotional type but I am really struggling to cope.

We've just had our injection training and are due to start as soon as my period shows.

I have a major needle phobia!!! I didn't cope well in the training, felt very sick and anxious at the thought of injecting myself/husband doing it.

I am so so nervous about starting this, excited at the prospects yet also not building our hopes up.

Wish us luck!!
