Some love stories begin in glass.
This is ours.
We were born in the early 1990s — before most people knew what IVF was, before the internet, before any of this had a name. We found each other years later, and when we began our own IVF journey, we realised neither of us had ever met another person like us — born this way, shaped by it, searching.
iamivf began as a question we kept asking in waiting rooms, in support groups, in whispered conversations. It became a place for everyone touched by IVF: the children grown into adults, the parents mid-journey, the hopeful, the grieving, the finally-there. We built it because we needed it.
You are not alone.
