We have applied for IVF!

Today we posted our application for IVF. Now we just wait to see if we can proceed to next stage= Bloods and scans. It all rests on if the consultant is happy with my wife's medical and genetic history (Not that there is anything serious). We briefly considered NHS route but are not keen on waiting times and having to have 6 failed IUI's before IVF and just want to jump to chase and have 40% success rate and not 12%.

On Tuesday we also went down to London for her blood test to check her hormone levels which are now down to almost normal levels after almost a year on meds! Great news. To top it all off, she lost 6.5 lbs this week. Superstar wife!!!

Enough of the known donor and home insemination business. It just felt wrong towards the end and it was just depressing. We are well aware that IVF can be a tough road but at least it has better statistics and it is all clean and clinical and the sperm comes in a vial and not a sterile wanking pot
