we had our first consult for ivf treatment today and our doctor gave us the basics of what to expect. he also wanted to know some of our medical history and told us a little more about the treatment itself. luckily my husband has benifits that will pay for a good majority of it otherwise there is no way i would be able to afford this. I was told by our doctor that I would have to take some time off from work for this and that after the procedure i would not be able to do any heavy lifting for several weeks. he also told me that durring the process I would have to keep my stress level to a minimum. the problem is that my job is an in home daycare and i worry about having to take time off because i may loose some of my daycare children and about the heavy lifting I have 2 year olds and toddlers so I am going to have to make adjustments for that. i am not exactly sure what to expect of this but I am excited and any advice you could offer would be much appreciated.
