WHO IS GOD?
Dearest sisters, good morning. Hope we are all fine? The bible says iron sharpeneth iron so permit me to pour out my mind. Sometimes we are strong and sometimes we need shoulders to lean on.
Am so depressed right now...

Sorry for the long note.

Medically, research tells me we do not have the facilities in Nigeria to do a PGD and the only lab that does it charges as high as 1million . God's power is greater than all powers / PGD.
Who has the final say? Jehovah has the final say. I will not take my eyes off God, I trust in his mighty powers...Baby dusts to all

@kingsdaughter, my gynae suggested i do ICSI in Gynaescope, am glad to know you did yours there, can you please give me details of the procedure, what to expect including the cost? i just want to have an idea of what to expect before going there and i seriously dont know where it is located though my gynae promised to take us there when we are ready and even ask for a discount for us but i still need to have an idea of the cost estimate before we go there.

LadyGuinivere:

I no been wan talk but let posterity not judge me. Somebody on this thread has already commented about the man liking o push for donor sperm. I also know somebody who went there recently and the man was also pushing hard for them to use donor sperm. Which personally I find very unproffessional considering that ICSI exists. Without trying that you jump str8 to donor sperm. With a Nigerian man?!
Anyways that is all the info I have on the man. Go to the clinic and get a feel of the place. I also think there's somebody that said she got success there. Read back a few pageas and see if una go fit yarn

mumihaja:
@kingsdaughter, i know that area, how many months did the test take pls? cos we want to try again this month cos my gynae gave us october -december to try on our own....is it somtin i will start as soon as af shows up?

Beetle:
Double favour, you might not need PGD. How do you feel when you're about to miscarry? Could it be immunes? Some peoples immunes fight pregnancy, could be your white blood cells are on the overdrive. Do you always have cold around implantation?

If you do, you might benefit from Low dose aspirin, omega 3 fish oil, Prednisolone and Clexane. What of your vitamin D level? Have you ever have this tested? You might need to up your dosage on this as well? Not all miscarriages are genetic. It could just be your body fighting the embies.

Sammiejo:

Most doctors do not want to take chances with a vaginal delivery which they can not really control esp where is no labour/delivery history. They would likely offer the CS option if 1.there were challenges with conception/pregnancy esp if this is the first child (These babies are usually called " precious babies" 2. the lady has had complications in previous delivery that resulted in death of a child where she has no live child/children . This also a case of " precious baby" 3. Other normal medical reasons for CS. I think you would be option 1. the choice is yours on what to go for.

kingsdaughter:
thank you for the 'epistle' these stories help the rest of us draw strength. gives us hope.

@gingerspice it is well with you. I know the feeling of disappointment and anger can be overwhelming sometimes let me share a part of my testimony with you. just before egg retrieval, I noticed my lower abdomen was really aching I just tot maybe it is normal. It was so painful I had to look around to see those that came for scan everyone was looking happy and normal- I told yourself see your mates ! Fast forward till egg retrieval day I was there from about 7am till 6pm why? Because I couldn't just stand up and I was like 'my mates'have left the hospital since 12 I am still here. It took one throwing up session for me to gather strength to walk into the car. Days after egg retrieval I had no mates around to check to see if they were uncomfortable and having tommyaches as well. I just told myself it would be over in a couple of days. I started calling 'my mates' again to find out if all I was feeling was normal That was just the beginning.

My sister, 3 days later I just woke my husband up early in the morning that I knew I was going to die that day he should just call them in the hospital to let them know we were coming I felt like hell. Our transfer was in 2 days but that was the least of things on my mind. The next 72 hours all I was doing was calling on God to spare my Life even as the transfer was done in the midst of this and the doctor kept on assuring me My embies would be fine and severe OHSS doesn't affect their growth or attachment. Na that one I dey talk?? I say make I just feel normal again I couldn't sleep without being induced to sleep. From 5.00pm I would have started lobbying for sleeping injection. meanwhile 'my mates' walked in on transfer day and walked out to go home. I had a procedure called paracentesis and I spent days in pain draining water from my 6months pregnant-looking stomach.


Why I am saying all of this- I was also in a limbo of emotion pain anger and discomfort. Sometimes I was in anger and when I couldn't sleep I would beg my husband to lay his hands on my stomach and pray. Why was I angry?-cos I had given up on the embies transferred, we had spent so much and this unexpected wahala just started which meant spending more, why did God have to make me go through the Wahala? At least I have read here pple going for IVF, ICSI no stories are they not'my ttc mates' why was I different? I had been through enough I just wanted to be well. Though the process was slow, I healed slowly and got my BFP! In retrospect I don't think I would have been more hurt if I went through all that pain and suffering and I didn't have a good news. I just thank God for life and Good health cos 1 single morning sickness like this I nor get. Instead Na chop I dey chop. It ended in praise for me !! @gingerspice, Ladyguniverse, itissettled3 and every other
mum to be on this thread-
IT WILL SURELY END IN PRAISE FOR YOU!! AMEN

Sorry for my epistle
