hi
so we have secondary infertility, my tubes are blocked after a difficult caesarean with my son.
we are waiting on a repeat HSG, but realistically our only chance is IVF.
I'm 37, my son is 6, 7 in December. I feel lost and don't know what to do. I so desire another child, however even if IVF works the age gap will be huge and I'd have 2 children at very different stages. the cost frightens me as would have to take a loan, and that makes me feel guilty for the child I already have.
I soooooo wanted a smaller age gap, going back to the start is scary. but I cant go back, and I'm so torn about what to do.
I feel all this time to weigh up the decision isn't actually helpful, and I don't want my desire for another child to negatively impact my son.
at some point we have to learn to live with the decision we make and I'm frightened of doing the wrong thing.
