Hi everyone !
I have 3 months until FET and need projects to keep me distracted . One of my projects : I want to make some friendship -style bracelets to give to my ivf clinic to give out to other patients either with egg retrievals or transfers as tokens of encouragement and solidarity .

I need your help figuring out what they should say , as I want to sure I account for all situations and to not trigger anyone .

Options I have thought of so far : “peace”, “hope”, “soon”, “love wins”, “strength”

If you were getting a bracelet during your ivf journey , what would you want it to say? Please send feedback and any other ideas you have ! Thank you!!

Hi all,
I hope this isn’t too weird but I’m not a mom (yet!) but I just love browsing this sub so much. I love hearing stories of your triangle families thriving and all of the positives that come with having an only .

My husband and I are in the throws of infertility/ivf and it’s pretty clear that we will be fortunate if we get to have one child. This at first didn’t fit my vision of what parenthood would look like, not because I necessarily wanted multiple children, but because my brain literally didn’t think of having one child as an option! (Brainwashed by society?).

Reading and hearing all of your stories just brings happy tears to my eyes and helps me to realize that having an only child just sounds so incredible . The benefits are abounding .My husband is a pilot and so this also would just fit our lifestyle so well . I dream of traveling together and not feeling too overwhelmed when he’s on a trip and I’m the sole parent for the week . I dream of giving my child the world and all of my time without having to be mentally or financially pulled in so many directions.

So I guess I’m just saying thank you to all of you who share! Thanks for helping me to keep my dream alive and helping me to live through you !!

Feel free to comment on grading of the embryo that ended up being successful !
