You are an important part of Osian’s life
Herts & Essex have been with us every step of the way on our difficult fertility journey.
After 7 months of trying to conceive naturally, we underwent tests to check for any underlying problems. Having been given the all clear, we were advised to try a round of IVF if we were still struggling after a year. Just as we reached that point, we had a positive pregnancy test and needless to say we were relieved and so happy!
Soon after, we had some concerns and a scan many weeks later sadly confirmed the pregnancy was ectopic. Our world fell apart that day. We didn’t know anything about it and were scared, but we received the highest level of care and empathy from all staff at the clinic.
After recovering from surgery and a short period of trying naturally, we decided to proceed with IVF treatment.
After an abandoned cycle, we restarted and were very lucky to become pregnant on the next cycle. It was an anxious pregnancy with some scares and complications in the early days but again, the clinic took such good care of us.
We’ve had our lowest and highest moments behind those doors and we can never be grateful enough to the staff who supported us and got us through each step.
