Its great that you and Kelli were able to start a family this way. How did your daughter come to be, if that's not too forward a question fer ya!?
Long story short - Iain was conceived via IVF and ICSI because my "sperm count" was about 3% of normal. My low sperm count was idiopathic - that is we did not know why. When we were ready to go for another baby, we retested and I had spontaneously regenerated to about 50% of normal - WELL within limits for a "normal" conception. And Adrienne was conceived... Well, the old fashioned way!

To this day we don't know why I "recovered" that way, but I think it has to do with weight loss and exercise.

In any event, I have been blessed with two lovely babies, one by science and one the "old fashioned" way! Both miracles, in their own way!
