Good morning ladies, wow it's been a LONG LONG time since I have posted on baby and bump, mainly due to taking a break from obsessing about becoming pregnant but I am looking for some advice.
Myself and my husband have one daughter (8) who we conceived naturally with no problems, when she was 3, in 2013 we started to try for baby 2 and after 12 months of BFNs we went for testing which showed a problem with my husbands sperm motility. We had 2 fresh rounds of ICSI at Liverpool Women's Hospital which were both unsuccessful and took a break from TTC. For the last 15 months or so we have been trying naturally again and hoping for a miracle but surprise surprise no luck.
I feel like I am at my wits end now after 5 years of negatives and so we are researching IVF abroad. We physically cannot afford IVF in the UK and frankly I think it's ridiculously priced! I have been doing some research and emailed a few different clinics but I'd like some advice and recommendations from ladies who have actually been through it or know someone who has.
What clinic would you recommend? was it worth it in the end after the price of flights and hotels? what was the outcome?
Any experiences greatly appreciated, thanks ladies. x
