Hello all I'm hoping for some advice and a point in the right direction from you ladies in the know. Bit of background first,
I'm 27 DH is 25 tomorrow. We have been blessed with three children my eldest from a previous relationship and our two together. After a traumatic birth we made the huge mistake of having a vasectomy, 10 months ago we paid for a reversal. We where told at the SA that the results where fantastic in every way, but I noticed that I didn't have some of the figures that I had seen other ladies talking about in the reversal thread that I am part of. So after pushing for more info we where giving the other figures and it turns out DH has 100% sperm antibodies. The surgeoun says that this is not a problem but a lot of research on the Internet says otherwise in fact in seems that fertility specialist say quite the opposite and that natural conception would be impossible. Despite the fact that I know how lucky we already are, this has left me heartbroken and from what I read it seems that if the sperm was washed that icis would be the option for us? Unfortunately after already spending £3000 on the reversal we just don't have the money at all. I had read that with egg sharing you can get a round of treatment for free? Or is it just reduced fee? At first i felt confused on how I felt about egg sharing but then I started to think how I feel with such a longing for another baby and then I thought of the woman who I could help who doesn't have any children and it was like a switch, what an amazing gift it would be.
Who would I contact to find out more and if we might be suitable? We are in West Yorkshire.
I'm sorry if I have rambled on, I really hope somebody replies xx
