Hi, when I very 1st started going down the road of TTC about 14 yrs ago - back then my DS was 3 or 4, and as I somehow concieved him naturally we had to pay privately we did a couple rounds of IUI back then. Now I am with a new DH and have been with him 5 years - he has low sperm count and they have discovered that I have edno and psoc, we are able to go publicily.
From what I can figure if your 1st child is concieved naturally you have to wait for 7 yrs before you are eligible for public funding.
Hope that helps
