Since being diagnosed with this chronic illness it had always been up in the air that I maybe able to in the future have more children. I currently have 1 daughter who was born 12 weeks premature nearly 7yrs ago.

Upon seeing a new consultant 2 years ago he actually put my life into more perspective. As I am a high risk with this illness and with what experienced with my daughter, he blatantly told me I am not able to have anymore children naturally as it would affect my body way too much.

So today I have taken the jump and contacted my local GP to arrange a consultation talk about being sterilised. This is something me and my husband have spoken about over the last few months as at present I do take quite a bit of medication. By having this procedure, would mean 1 less medication to take each day, 1 less thing being pumped into my body to alter everything.

Let’s see what 26th April brings….
