hello ladies... just wanted to update you all. I didnt get
after I stopped my meds... and since Im travelling out of the country next week, the doc gave me this med (Cytotec)... which basically induces uterine contractions.
Took it yesterday, and almost immediately started bleeding heavily ... sorta feeling relieved, like my body is re-setting now. I was told that I didnt need a D&C (cause it was an early m/c) so hoping everything comes out well... and no complications.
Heading off on vacation for 2 weeks, looking forward to it. Also starting adoption procedures ... as it takes time anyway. We had a good talk with the RE... next cycle (we will do another sometime in sept/oct) will be the antagonist protocol (
Courtney, thanks for your words on changing protocol makng a difference for you).
Also pushed RE to do ICSI on all eggs; and possible PGD if I have > 5 embyros. Im keen on PGD... cause we seem to be stumbling only on account of possible chromosomol issues (just egg quality).. .and I rather they know beforehand than go through the transfer, wait it out, and then it fail ! RE thinks PGD sometimes threatens the mebyro... and so will do if only I have adequate number. And so we compromise...
In the meanwhile, have been imbibing lots of alcohol... just as a retaliation !!
Plan to get my body back into some semblance of shape... so we'll see what works out. Whatever happens... I plan to be a mom by nex tyear this time ... by having a biological or adopted child. Just spoke to a cousin who adopted (after 3 failed IVFs... all BFN)... and then she got pregnant naturally 2 years later !! I will continue to hope that the right baby comes into my life soon....
wishing you all the very best on your journeys towards motherhood... and courage to face all the struggles tha twill invariably come at some point or another. And hope to catch some of you on a future board
