I would think about ivf, but i would also think about adoption

I’d consider it. I’d be keener to think of adoption but when we spoke about this before our children were born, my husband thought he’d be able to understand their bad behaviour if he could see our characteristics in the children. I don’t know if he still thinks the same when our youngest chats through the football ( that’s from me by the way)

Hi again Rhiaannon
Actually, my partner and i have discussed this (working in infertlilty makes you paranoid that somethings bound to go wrong!!) and we would consider it, yes

That’s a hard question to answer. I really wanted children and now have 2 boys. I would have been very sad if I hadn’t been able to get pregnant and would probably have had tests to find put what the problem was and would have considered ivf. But ivf is very hard emotionally and not guaranteed to work. Plus there are lots of children looking for adoptive famies. So in our overpopulated world, maybe it would be better to consider fostering or adoption instead. It’s very hard to know what we would have dine if we’d been in that situation. We are v lucky to have 2 great sons. Jo

Hmmm, good question.
My gut response is to say no. HOWEVER, one never really knows how one will feel till it happens. My widfe and I still pretty young and havent tried to have kids yet. How would we feel if we tried and couldn’t. Honestly, i dont know.
