Couple: £90,000 for our IVF baby was 'all worth it'
A couple who spent £90,000 on IVF say it was "all worth it" - as they now have a baby boy.
Helen Proctor, 34, and Marc, 33, from Southampton, spent seven years trying for a baby, suffering a number of miscarriages and going through six rounds of IVF.
But their dream of having a family finally became a reality with baby Blake, who is now 12-weeks-old.
Dad Marc agreed it was a lot of money, but said, "Believe me it's all worth it. I'd go through it a million times just so I could have him here."
Mum Helen said they were "very lucky" to be in a position where they could pay for such treatment, and couples with less should make sure to research the clinics first.
