My infertility journey went a step further and after 13 IVF cycles and 15 years of trying everything I’m sure you have all tried, we did an IVF cycle in the US and used a gestational surrogate. We were blessed with a remarkable son. But what a lonely journey it was and still is. There were no clubs for us - not even the baby club. I felt like a fraud going in to a store to buy baby goods. I missed the excitement of everyone asking when are you due. 12 years later I still sit there awkwardly while others share their birthing story. And my biggest shame is still feeling jealous of those families with multiple children. What I would give to 

be able to provide my only child with a sibling. So a club would be fantastic! If there are any others out there with a similar story please make contact. Much love to all you infertility warriors, no matter where you are in your journey to be called mum šŸ’ž
