My journey through fertility investigations and treatments!
My name is Rachel and I was born in North London/England on 28th June 1986. I am married to my lovely husband Kenny and we live in Essex with our 2 cats Noddy and Snoopy. I have created a blog about my journey through fertility investigations and treatment as I feel that not enough is said about this subject.
We are Officially PREGNANT UNTIL PROVEN OTHERWISE! (pupo)
The embryo is currently tucked away inside of me hopefully baking away and becoming a baby.
It's kind of scary because although I know that I am currently technically pregnant, I'm under no illusion that it could all be over as quick as it started.
The next few weeks (10 to be precise) are going to be the slowest, craziest, hardest days ever.
Over the past few weeks we have had the tough job of deciding which hospital we would like to be referred to for the IVF process.
We have had to weigh up the pro's and con's of each of our top two clinics but finally came to a decision.
BOURN HALL CLINIC CAMBRIDGESHIRE
We decided that for us Bourn would be easier to get to and better for me in general as it has a much more relaxed atmosphere than Barts.
I am a really stressy person and getting on and off trains into central London would just tip me over the edge.
We Originally picked Barts as we thought that being in Central London it would be one of the best hospitals we could go with in the UK but since looking further into it all we felt Bourn had more to offer us.
We visited the Cambridge Clinic a few weeks ago and was highly impressed by the friendliness of the staff. The hospital itself is well maintained, quiet, clean and comfortable which is just right for us.
In November last year Bourn Hall hit the National Headlines for it's high success rates.
