Hi everyone,
I have a 7 year old son and have been struggling to give him a sibling for around 3 years now.
my husband and I had all the tests and they found that my husband had low morphology. We started to speak to the fertility consultant and they tested him again it came back his morphology was now ok. Not sure what to do now. I'm worried if there is something wrong with me that they have missed because sometimes my Periods last a day or 2. 3 at most and very light. I'm 35 years old and my husband is 37. Every day I worry that time is running out and my boy is asking for a brother or sister all the time. Everyone around me having babies and I am hiding away from them feeling bitter and jealous.

I know I am also very blessed to have the one child I do have.
I don't know if I should get one more second opinion on myself before we pay for ivf.
Any advice welcome

Hey, you sound in a very similar situation to me. I've been trying for over two years now and DS is 9 and desperate for a sibling plus this is my OH first. His SA showed low normal forms but my fertility consultant doesn't seem too worried and thinks I'm not ovulating properly. We've tried Letrozole and Clomid but have now decided to go down the IVF route which I've got my tests booked next month

Hi thanks for your reply. Sorry to hear your in a similar situation. It's hard isn't it. I wish you all the luck with your ivf. We will be in the same boat soon too. I think it's going to have to be our next option now to complete our family puzzle hopefully. Xxx
