Couple who spent 20,000 on fertility treatment finally conceive – after mum drip fed egg yolk

A couple who spent 20,000 on fertility treatment, finally conceiving their beloved son on a special diet of egg yolks and soya, are getting married with their newborn as guest of honour.

Cathy Garvey, 43, and Dan Bowley, 42, of Kings Norton, Birmingham, spent a heartbreaking six years trying for a baby which included four rounds of failed IVF treatment.

But scientists at CARE Fertility, finally cracked it on their fifth attempt by drip-feeding the new mum egg yolk and soya oil to fight killer cells that were destroying her chances.

And thanks to the unusual treatment, Cathy and Dan, a retail manager, are now the proud parents to baby Joseph who was born on July 8, weighing 7lbs 14oz, reports the Birmingham Mail.

Now the couple can start saving for the wedding they dreamed of.

It was worth every penny because we got Joseph in the end, said Cathy, 43, a recruitment adminstrator.

We did have to put off our wedding because we couldnt afford it after spending so much money on fertility treatment.

But Joseph is perfect.

"Hell be the guest of honour at our wedding.

Cathy struggled to get pregnant naturally for two years but had expected to have problems after previously being told she had blocked fallopian tubes.
