ad. We have partnered with Laura Bradshaw who has offered her advice on how to support friends and family going through IVF.![]()

"The one thing I always get asked is "how can I support friends/family going through IVF?" and I always say the same - be there for them! It's easy to overthink this situation, but in reality... a kind text message is all it takes. I always find a text message is best because it gives them time to write a reply, rather than being caught off guard if they're having a tough day. Here are some messages I would send if I had a friend or family member going through IVF and remember - even if they don't reply, I promise you it will mean the world. Let me know in the comments if you have had IVF and been supported in a really lovely way?"
What lovely feedback to read today.. 🧡 ![]()
