Yes, it's just over a week now until this year's Fertility Show - and my in-box seems to be full of Fertility Show related questions and queries. It promises to be another fantastic event and there are some really interesting speakers and exhibitors. I know I would have felt a bit uneasy about going along to an event like this in the early days of trying to conceive, as if it was some kind of public admission of a problem I kept hoping was going to disappear. In fact, it's ideal for anyone at the start of their journey as there's so much information to access all in one place - and if you're further along the path of tests and treatment, you'll find some of the country's leading fertility experts all under one roof discussing some of the latest developments in the field. I know it may sound a bit strange, but I've always found that there's something slightly empowering about these very special two days at Olympia - there may be some commercial elements to the show, but fertility treatment has become a commercial business - and they don't matter in comparison to the amazing strength to be gathered from spending time in the company of quite so many others who all understand exactly what it's like.
