So, DW and I are about to start on another round of IUI, a year after the birth of our DS, who was conceived the same way. My problem with the process the last time was the quality of the rooms where I had to go and "deliver" my "sample". One room was in a basement, where the bed was right under an air conditioning duct and there were some heavy-duty road works going on outside - no exactly the most relaxing atmosphere. The other place was where the room was just behind Reception so the noise of telephones, chatter etc. was clearly heard. Again, not conducive to the job in hand (literally!). Having to "produce" is always a stressful experience when you know that some doctor is standing by waiting to squirt the result into DW. So, has anyone experienced the same problem and who has found the a clinic in London with the best facilities?

All my IUI experiences were a case of produce at home and then deliver to hospital (only 10 minutes away from us).

If you get to IVF stage, though, I can thoroughly recommend Bourne Hall, just outside Cambridge. Facilities for production of sample were first class, and the success rate is also very good.

Take your own laptop and some headphones?
