Thanks girls. cool, someone else in Brissy!

We were given about 85% chance that the operation would work and then 50/50 that a pregnancy would eventuate. I'm a bit of an optimist and the operation didn't cost nearly as much as we thought it would so we gave it a go. Being new to it all I'm not sure what ICSI is but I think I have an idea. I'm not sure we could have afforded it. IVF is so expensive isn't it? Heaps of good luck to you! dust:

The operation was pretty painful for dh (although I must say not as painful as labour so we're not even yet!) and it seems to have gone well. We are just waiting, have about 3 weeks before we can see if his body has started producing antibodies and therefore killing any sperm he makes. Fingers crossed. Crazy thing is, I've already started charting and even though I know rationally that it will probably take months or even years, I still have my hopes up. I'm getting worried about how I'll take the disappointment. It's ok though, I'm lucky to have my daughter anyway.

Shaz - will do and feel free to pm me too!
