My story in a nut shell:
I met my oh, he'd been married and had a vasectomy after having children with his ex wife. So I knew this from the start and had the conversation of kids, marridge etc. I have no children of my own, and at the time I was'nt too concerned about having children, although I knew I would want them one day. Now here I am, and its all I think about!!!
He had a reversal over a year ago, tests have shown his swimmers arent too great . Ive had all my bloods and scans done and now we are just waiting for our doctor to send us on to a FS. I was really hoping we wouldnt have to go down the road of ICSI, but it looks like we are heading that way.
I have good days and bad days, and just want to fall pregnant so much but feel like its never going to happen !
On top of it all, we are not entitled to any help on the NHS so we need to fund the treatment ourself, and im worried if it doesnt work we really arent going to b able to afford to keep trying.
My oh is very supportive and feels quilty for me having to go through this, I do love him to bits but in the back of my mind im worried one day I will start to resent him for having the snip.
Its a constant battle of trying to stay positive and see the bigger picture. I dont have much support as Ive kept it between us and a few close friends.
Please can anyone tell me if they have, or no someone who has been in the same position?
