Many thanks to all who attended this year's baby party at Burger farm in Newtown.  This wonderful event was held on Saturday October 6th.  More than 1,000 adults and about 900 babies were there.  The center has now generated more than 5,000 babies from in vitro fertilization procedures.  It was a fantastic day for our staff to have a chance to visit with the families we have worked with so closely.  Many traveled considerable distances for the event.  We had many families from Lexington, Louisville, Dayton and Columbus in addition to our local couples. 

Baby Reunion 2005!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Our 2005 baby reunion happened on Saturday October 29th.  This year it was held at Berger Farm with a Halloween theme.   Approximately 1,500 parents, children and staff attended.  We had fabulous weather.  We all enjoyed the fall weather and the many activities at Berger farm.   The children ranged from 4 weeks old to 15 years of age.  It was a wonderful opportunity for the staff to visit with previous patients.  The center has now experienced more than 4,000 babies born from IVF and other high tech procedures such as embryo cropreservation.  Thousands more births have resulted from "low tech" procedures such as ovulation drugs and insemination.  The Cincinnati Enquirer was on hand to commemorate the event.  Below are some photos from the event.   This is our 17th such gathering.  If you missed it this year make sure you attend next year!!

Baby Bash 2001



On September 15, 2001 the Institute for Reproductive Health and Christ hospital hosted our annual BABY BASH. This is a picnic held at Parky's Barn in Winton Woods for all those couples who conceived through IVF technology. We have to date had in excess of 2,000 babies born from the program. Approximately 2,000 moms, dads, babies, children, and grand parents attended. The weather was perfect. The kids enjoyed the pony rides, hay rides, play barn and the petting zoo. The adults enjoyed lunch, and refreshments. The staff greatly enjoyed seeing the babies and children. It was also a chance to socialize with our enduring patients who stuck out these difficult treatments and ultimately succeeded.
