Hi, yes I am and was accepted. It totally depends on the criteria set by your local ccg - I know some areas don’t fund if any partners already has children, all part of the shitty post code lottery I’m afraid xx

what are are you if you don’t mind me asking

I fall under Bristol, North Somerset & South Glos. CCG

thank you I’m Birmingham (I have kids) but my partner is Worcester with no kids

Aw really! I’m sheffield and my wife had a daughter we’re a same sex family and so I can’t have a child of my own without iui/ivf 😩 hoping it gets renewed but good to hear it’s not like that everywhere! I might try appeal if that’s a thing 🙈

It’s a really rubbish postcode lottery 😢 I had no kids and we were refused funding due to my husband adopting his little boy prior to our relationship many moons ago.
We fall under the North East and North Cumbria CCG.
