Welcome to BB. We are another couple who were given a 1% chance of conceiving and if so there was a 50% chance of the pregnancy been ectopic. Before our first stimulated IVF cycle we concieved our tummy bub which made it to the right spot and is due in 3months time.
Has your DH tried ways to improve sperm quality? Not to say you both would want to try them but the difference between some sperm analysis before and after can be amazing. Wishing you all the best and will keep everything crossed bub no2 will be on his/her way very soon.
welcome to BB! i wish you all the best with your journey. My DH and i were givin a 1% chance and same problem my DH has no sperm motility and low sperm count. We also walked away feeling confused and flat but i believe the process is very easy it all just flows once you start and a good clinic helps Is your DH on menevit? that helps my DH a bit? I think just go into it with an open mind and be prepared for the journey xxxxx
Thanks everyone for your support and encouragement !
My DH has been on Menevit for about 6-8 months.
We've got our next appointment in late Feb so will start to get the ball rolling but
In the meantime, I just need to shed some kilos to help my side of things ......
DH and I did our first round of IVF in August - he has a blockage so they have to operate to get sperm out of him
I dont think anyone here will lie and tell you it is easy because it isnt, but we are all here to help and support each other. Feel free to ask questions, especially if there is something you dont understand, the girls here have helped me understand so much about the IVF process.
Also do yourself a favour and buy the book making babies by Theresa Miller - It is all about peoples personal IVF stories. It really shows that everyone has a different journey.
Welcome to BB! There are so many lovely women here, who have some wonderful advice and experiences.
We needed IVF due to my endometriosis and blocked tubes - it was pretty severe and I had it removed. It took us 2 years to get our head around the fact that we needed to do IVF after that though, we found that we had to be in the right head space.
I found the whole IVF process to be very straightforward, not as stressful as I had anticipated (due to a very supportive FS) and our first cycle was a success.
I also did acupuncture along with my cycle, and feel that helped tremendously.
I am sure that as you go along, you'll have loadsssssss of questions which is what BB is really good for.
