Hi everyone,
I am waiting for my day 1 cycle to start and my medication is being delivered tomorrow. I am very nervous and feel like I’m so unprepared for the journey ahead. So a bit of background of my journey..me and my partner tried for a baby first time round and took us 7 year to conceive, we were going to go down the IVF route via the NHS but luckily had already caught on I was 29 when I fell pregnant and 30 when I had my son. My partner is 2 year younger. Turns out after all the tests that he has severely low sperm count, all my tests always came back normal. So I always knew I wanted another baby but was so happy about having my son I kind of forgot about how hard it was. Anyway we’ve been trying another 7 year for baby number 2, my sons now 8 and he gets upset about his friends having siblings etc which devastates me! The past year we have gone down the route of private IVF had all the blood tests etc and they have recommended ICSI and the dose of Bemfola is 112.5 I think. Any advice would be amazing as I am currently going through a hard time with my mental health as the trying for so long has taken its toll unfortunately and I’m now 38 so scared about that being an issue too…😥
