I've been lurking mainly around conception for quite a while while we have been TTC our first.

I've never had a pregnancy. We've started in the investigation journey and have just been referred for IVF. Im gutted tbh.
I thought (naively) that we might need a little help but would be pregnant soon enough.

Consultant has said that DH has abnormal sperm of 99%. He said there is still a chance we could conceive naturally but that it will be difficult. Waiting list for ICIS is 12-18 months and as I'm 34 he suggested we try a cycle privately while we wait and to also keep trying ourselves.

I don't know why I'm posting really. DH is trying to be upbeat and insisting that we will be pregnant by the time it's our turn on NHS.

I don't know how much a cycle of ICIS costs but I do know we have NO money for it.

Just Sad I guess.

Oh, so sorry.

I can't advise, but didn't want you to go unanswered.

Best of luck and Cake

Thank you for replying. I'm trying to be more positive today.

Have had lots of Cake and Wine so that has helped
