We (well DH) had a reversal in Vic back in Nov 2007. It cost us about $4000 all out of pocket (no medicare rebate). It was successful and we got pregnant the following month. I went on to have a beautiful daughter.
We started to try for No2 in Sept 2009 when DD1 was 1yr old to find out the reversal site had scarred over and it was like he had never had it done We then went down the IVF/ICSI path and after 2 stim cycles and 7 transfers we had another little girl.
I was actually going to get DH to have another reversal...we had even booked in for it when I got pregnant on the last transfer. The FS we went to gave us a 50% chance of the 2nd reversal working and not scarring over. I have to say going down both paths I would prefer the reversal again....and if I could convince my DH to have another bubs I would certainly go the reversal path! but thats not going to happen as DH is done!
