The Conceive Incubator



---

Sometimes I cannot believe just how quickly time flies. 2015 has passed by in the blink of an eyelid. And what a year it’s been ! We launched our new clinic branch in Jumeirah Lake Towers (Dubai), have celebrated 11 years of Conceive and have crossed our 3000th baby mark !

And it’s all down to the love & support from YOU ! So from each and every member of Conceive, THANK YOU 🙂    We would be nothing without all of you so a heartfelt and sincere thank you for bringing us here today. As we approach the 44th Birth Anniversary of United Arab Emirates, we’d like to express our gratitude to this great country for allowing us to work in peace and harmony and for always blessing us and wishing us well.

What’s new this time around ? Well we’ve just had the honour and pleasure of welcoming on board the new author of B Method blog, Mr Mike Goncalves who has helped us give the blog a new and fresh look and cater specifically and uniquely to the ‘Fitness for Fertility’ mantra. Do also check out Cathy & Eric’s blog, Slow Swimmers and Fried Eggs as they both continue bravely in their narration of their struggles with infertility. Each week they bare their souls in the hope that someone else out here in the Middle East feels less lonely and isolated and depressed.

We also had a visit from the students of Pristine Private School who were incredibly enthusiastic and excited to learn about what we do here in the hospital. This is something we all enjoy greatly and welcome any more schools/colleges/academics who would like to visit us. Do get in touch with us through our website www.conceiveivf.com

This will be our last newsletter for 2015 ; the next will be in January 2016. So till then, enjoy all our content through all our verticals, have a very Merry Christmas and a Prosperous & Happy New Year !

Infertility, Tradition and Gratitude. Oh, and Turkey, a LOT of Turkey…

Soooo… If this post takes a minute to get where it’s going, you’ll have to forgive me. I’m in the final stages of a massive tryptophan-and-carbs hangover from Thanksgiving. And thanks to the power of tradition and memory, as Cathy reminded me, a turkey is required. “But sweetie,” I cautiously proposed as the guy who… Continue reading Infertility, Tradition and Gratitude.

Endo…what?? How Endometriosis could be affecting your fertility

Hello! I thought I’d share a bit more about my experience of Endometriosis with this post, as it’s such a common condition (I think the stats are around 10% of women in US have it!) and so often misdiagnosed.   Ps. The title of the post is inspired by so many of the responses I… Continue reading Endo…what?? How Endometriosis could be affecting your fertility

Turn Toxic Thoughts into Empowering Thoughts during the Infertility Journey

Cheers, dear readers,   We’ve all done it – woken up on the wrong side of the bed with toxic dis-empowering thoughts right out of the gate. We shoot ourselves in the foot before we’ve even gone for our first bathroom break.   For example, how often do you think these two thoughts first thing… Continue reading Turn Toxic Thoughts into Empowering Thoughts during the Infertility Journey

Acknowledging the “hard” in the decision to adopt or not
