PossiblityGod:
Happy easter everyone and trust we are having a good easter celebration. This is a new moniker but an old member.
Please I need advice and suggestions. I did ivf late last year, got pregnant but lost it by 11weeks 5days as a result of no heartbeat. I even attempted suicide because the pain was too much for me to bear, but to the glory of God I'm healing gradually.
I went for the evacuation(MVA) last month, I am yet to see to see my period though.
Before starting the ivf, I took some recommended drugs to boost my egg quality for some months as well with hubby, the two subserol fibroids that were small before the ivf increased to 6.5cm as a result of the plenty progesterone that I was taking,
Now my questions are; what should I do to avoid the reoccurrence of no heartbeats again ie chromosomal abnormalities.
When can I go for the 2nd round of ivf and do I need to prepare myself again? If yes what drugs do you suggest.
Looking at the size of the fibroids now does it need surgery or what can I do to reduce it?
If I should go for ivf again, do I still use same hospital or change to a new one?
I am 35year old married for 5years,hubby has low sperm motility. Please I need everyone opinion on this, please do not read and pass, help a broken sister. @blendy, @zest4alllife, @omojudy, @uridiame

sorry for your experience sis, please try and resolve the fibroid issue before going for another IVF, pregnancy also makes fibroid to increase, most doctors don’t do IVF with fibroid no matter its location, also boost your egg quality once more if its more than 3-4 months, as for wether you can use same hospital, its entirely your decision to make based on your previous experience with them, o would suggest you do IVF/ICSI next due to your hubby’s low motility, poor sperm can also lead to poor fetal development but with ICSI they select the healthiest sperm and use it to fertilize your egg. May God grant you success in your next attempt and may the babies bring joy to your home.

I asked about the price of infacol I was told it's #4,000 please is that the price?

i even got mine 6k last week

kokaiye:
how lil is d jaundice..? If it is as lil as its not obvious... Yes it can go on its own... Just mk sure u feed her very well so as d bilirubin will b pooped out of her body... As 4 d colic, if u can get infacol in ur area, gt it cos it wrks wonder if not... If ur baby is bottle feeding, gt an anti colic bottle, n more importantly burp ur baby alwz b4 u put her down after every feed... If ur baby is already a month old, u can gt grip water... These are ways u can relieve ur baby of colic.

sweet cappo, how are you doing, your babies are greeting o, I don’t know why they are always hungry

Congratulations to mamas that tested positive, and to those on the process, it shall all end in praise

Mamaejimaato:
Praaaise the Lord!
Hallelujah somebody!
Is a BFP on a first trial after almost 6years of marriage with 3 failed Iui and Amh of 0.56. Jesus did it for me. To Him be all the glory.��
I want to use this medium to say thank you to the pioneers of this group, those of you, who have shared your struggles, what you did differently and have taken your time to answer questions
On what I did differently:
Firstly, I almost finished reading this thread �as it open my eyes to so many things as I didn't even know group like this existed during my ttc years and Iui trial.

I copied and saved things people did differently and added my own,

I prayed and fasted for 3days for God to take perfect control of everything.

Short protocol was used for me as a result of low Amh. when my period started, I dewormed and took lemon and lime infused warm water first thing in the morning for 5days, prior to this, I have stopped taking beverages, soft drinks and malt.
I started wearing stockings even before the egg collection as I read that it helps to increase blood flow to the uterus and wore it all through the 2ww, soaked my feet in hot water atimes b4 EC, ate one egg daily, ate a lot of almond seed, avocado pear and other fruits even after the transfer.

I was even sad, during the stimulation when only 5viable follicles was seen, I nearly wanted canceling the cycle, but the doctor encouraged me to go on, as God would have it, on the day of egg retrieval, 6eggs were retrieved, 3 fertilized but only two made it to blastocyst which to the glory of God the two implanted.�
I ensure I insert my cyclogest same time, 10am in morning and 10pm at night. Progesterone injection is 12pm every 48hours, I took folic acid and pregnacare original too.
I took pineapple core for 5days and also stayed in a nearby hotel for 5days after transfer.
My people I didn't bath for 2weeks, I only use wet towel to clean my body,� no cream, no deodorant or perfume at all, no house work of any kind, but i try walking around the house few times during the 2ww.
I took DHEA 50mg2xe, coq10 200mg 1dly, l arginine 500mg 2xe, and folic acid for 4months based on doc recommendation before the cycle commence.
All these I got them from here

super congratulations sis, i wish you a smooth 9 months journey. Soo happy for you

Freddonance:
Breech at term & or in labor is an indication(absolute) for c/s. Not a breech remote from term. Your baby can turn before term. So in that case, if there's no contraindication for vaginal delivery why shouldn't you be allowed to labor?

Its my preference, even if both are cephalic i will still opt for cs, two babies with two different placenta is not what i will risk, not after all the stress they will say placenta refused to come out, twin birth is very complicated

Poster i am on the same table with your wife, please let her register in a general or teaching hospital, twin pregnancy is a high risk pregnancy and needs hospital with good neonatal care unit just incase they come earlier.

If the twins are sharing the same placenta and sac they are likely to come between 34-36 weeks, if they have separate placenta and sac its between 36-37 weeks, twins do not get to 40 weeks.

As for me i am going for elective, my doctor mentioned it as early as at 12 weeks and i gladly accepted. Reason is that one of the babies is breech while the other is cephalic, it could lead to complications during labour.

Mercychen:
Apart from tiny cervix or complications, every woman can have a natural birth except she's the lazy type.

May God help you during your own time is the only thing i can say to you because your ignorance is annoyingly irritating.

I am sorry for the late birth story o. I have been so lazy to press phone since delivery. I want to thank God for his Grace upon my life from conception till date. The pregnancy journey was not too stressful for me apart from the normal symptoms applicable to pregnancy.
I delivered on a Friday and the Monday of the week of my delivery(Week39) , I had malaria symptoms, I came .

congratulations �

MummyAD:
Mamas in the house pls Help I did cervical cerlage few days ago according to Doctor's advise but ever since then I have been having terrible pains on my pelvic area with spotting my doctor said it will stop but up till now I feel pains and it's becoming unbearable I can't stand properly I am worried and hope this won't affect my baby I don't care about the pains just worried about my baby

I only experienced spotting for a day, after that nothing else. Though I was placed on compulsory bedrest for some days but I wasn't feeling any pain, Hope they gave you antibiotics? You can go back to your doctor or go for a scan on your own. Quick recovery

Mamaejimaato:
It is well sis! God will come through for you and you will overcome.
Which clinic did you use and what is the diagnosis?

Hmmmm, my story with medisson, she said I had cyst and that the quality won't be good, that my only option is donor egg. I showed her my amh result that I'm an excessive responder she no gree o,how my right ovary is twisted and can't be accessed, that it's up above my uterus, I went back to omini, he said it's a follicular cyst and that the right ovary was behind my uterus, which can be accessed too, we went ahead to have a successful cycle. Please try and use another hospital in your next cycle. Sorry for your experience.

mimitoosh:
Hello mama,I am here with my second cycle update,sadly it didnt go well as planned,yesterday was supposed to be my retrieval day but I woke up to the news that it wasnt done cos my follicles has turned into cyst,so doctor couldn't retrieve because of the fear of harvesting just one or two which may not be of good quality.To tell you I felt devastated yesterday was an understatement,my first cycle in july,I got 7 good eggs,so this time around I decided to be on q10,vit E and C,folic acid just to improve the quality of my eggs since the first didn't implant.
It's so sad that this cycle had to end this way.

Thats very fair, during my cycle 37 were collected and 24 fertilized, we wanted to freeze and they quoted 430k for 6 months :', we had to discard them, how I wish I got a fair price like yours. It pains me anytime I remember it. I just thank God we got twins from the cycle, I don't know what I would I have done if not for God's mercy.(

Fireandice0589:
Thanks mama. Our hospital is 300k/yr. Will freeze it o regardless

babestell:
my baby boy is here. 12th November

Thank God for a successful delivery

congratulations sis.

Towerofgrace:
You are welcome sis, our very own iya ibeji, i tap into this anointing on my next mission ooo, let me just close shop afterwards, glad everything is fine with the twins. When do you intend to start shopping cos i don't even know where to start, plus this end of the year price hike is making me think i should wait till Jan which will be 3rd tri already, i am just confused ojare

Funny enough alot of mama's feel kicks/quickening and don't realize it, mine started like vibration/twitching sometimes or like gas/fart around my navel, don't worry you will feel them soon and the boxing competition ehn

Amen to your prayers my sister,you need to see how they were summersaulting during the scan, I can't believe these are the people I was worried about, it was a huge relief too. I will be shopping January too, though I'm getting some few things here and there. It is well my sister

Alright ma. Thank you so much.

kokaiye:

Thank you

kokaiye:
but u dnt ve malaria na.... U said it yrsef u dnt ve symptoms Y do u wanna take it?! Stick to ur prenatals... #singing# peperipe peperipepe!!! No go dey do pass ursef.

Thank you so much, they are always asking me if I have started feeling kicks but I didn't know why,the placenta is even posterior, I'm just coming back from scan to confirm if everything is fine cos I haven't started feeling their kicks. Thank you for your explanations, I really appreciate it.

Towerofgrace:
Hello Mama, anti malaria drugs are not just given or taken anyhow during pregnancy as some can pose great risk to your baby.

I had concerns about it and asked my Dr seriously before i was convinced about taking it. My Dr's explanation is that anti malaria drugs is different from malaria preventive drugs which is the routine one given in pregnancy not the regular malaria drugs used for treatment of malaria when you already have it.

The Malaria preventive drug is given anytime from 16weeks upwards not before to ensure you are in 2nd tri and after you must have started feeling your baby i.e quickening, so pls discuss with your Dr. If you have started ANC your Dr will keep asking if you have started feeling your baby move it is because they want to know best time to give you malaria prophylaxis medication, at least this was what happened in my case, if by 20weeks you still don't feel your baby maybe due to anterior placenta, they will definitely give you the malaria prophylaxis then.

Whatever you do, don't self medicate pls.

Alright, thank you[quote author=Kinado post=107417600][/quote]

Yes I have registered, was only given routine drugs I.e the vitamins, nothing else. Thanks mama, I will do as suggested

Mizjemie25:
Are you registered for antenatal yet?? Your doctor is supposed to give you at the appropriate time! Pregnant women are supposed to be given anti malaria at least twice during pregnancy.. it’s part of the routine drugs just like tetanus injection.. And yes swidar is the branded one.. talk to your doctor.. might not be good for you if you react to any of the components.. like me.. I did react on my first dose so I wasn’t given again

Good evening mamas
I'm in my 2nd trimester but have not taken any anti malaria drug, someone told me it's risky that I should get swidar, but I'm not having any symptoms. Please is it advisable to use the swidar?

Hahahah, abeg make Una no vex, Good morning mamas o, hope we all are doing great. Able cappo I salute you o. May God see us through!

Welcome to a new month,the month of NOVEMBER...

Towerofgrace:
it can sometimes be picked on scan especially if the tubes are really enlarged/swollen, you know it is fluid and more than often scan is able to pick up fluids

Okay, I didn't know that.

Mamaejimaato:
Well done momma's, I just joined nairaland.
please has anyone got a referral here from doctor chudi in ask the gynaecologist facebook?
I am preparing for ivf, hoping and believing that it yeild triplets for me in my first try, as I have done 3 failed IUI.
I am taking some supplement as directed by to the doctor to increase my egg quality. I need suggestions on what and what not to do before I commence

Amen to your prayers, kindly read through previous posts or use the search bar as your questions have been treated severally.

Ladygracy:
Okay mamas so I decided to go for scan today because I was still bleeding though not much. I also had on and off lower right abdominal pain. Please this hydrosalpinx I did not have it before the ivf procedure so how come. Please sabi mamas what is the way forward can it be treated i also have enlarged right ovary I guess this is as a result of the drugs.

Sorry for your experience sis . This your result is somehow o, ( I stand to be corrected) hydrosalpinx is a fluid in the fallopian tube and is only seen through an HSG, pelvic scan does not detect it.
