well, we've had advice from another FS within SIVF, who has said they WOULDN'T just try naturally for six months, but would return more promptly to IVF, since our chances of natural conception remain slim, despite the fact we have proved we can achieve it. She said given my age, and our desire to ultimately have two children, and me only with one damaged tube, the clock is ticking. ...

so another viewpoint!

We are thinking of waiting just 3-4 months and then going to IVF. That will give us a chance to heal and regroup a bit too, and take a holiday etc. I am not ready for IVF right now! I am nowhere near strong enough emotionally.
