Hi Mel,
Sorry I missed the point y7ou mentioned about you paying for infertility
treatments.
(I thought you might be in Canada, England, Australia etc where it might
be a covered expense.
All I was saying is that it not a sure thing to get pregnant and carry
it to term if there is an underlying infection preventing conception or
hormone imbalance that is challenging the embryo.
Untreated infection is a major cause of miscarriage and complications.
