Congratulations wish you a healthy nine months.
ziondota:
My testimony... BFP after failed ivf last June. Please join me to shout three thunderous alleluia. Hmm, how do I start? Singing..What a mighty God we serve...Am not really an active member but i have posted like twice. When my ivf failed I was so confused and devastated. I had so much faith it was going to work. I went back to the clinic 2nd of August for a review. The doctor couldn't say much. I was insisting that the failure must have been because of my multiple fibroids. The Dr assured me that it wasn't and asked me to come back for FET once I see my period. I agreed but getting home, I told hubby am not ready to go back yet for the FET. I told him I needed to take care of myself and use any of these networking products to shrink the fibroids before going back ending of Oct or Nov. He accepted. I continued my normal life, the products I wanted to buy and use, I just couldn't buy partly because I wasn't convinced it will work. I once asked about swissgarde products here no one answered my question. I became skeptical about it. And I started looking for another one to try. Hoping that when my period comes out I will go and get. My sisters, af no come out again ooo. I expected it on a Saturday, I no see. I never thought I could be preg, I was like hope it's not hormonal imbalance. Up until Wednesday no show, normal me will check the next day self. Not until Thursday morning around 3am I woke up to poo and decided to check and omg I saw double lines with the second being very visible too. I rushed to the room and hubby was awake too.. I knelt down, showed him the stick and started singing and crying that early in the morning. Hubby was like my voice was too high and that I should explain to him. I no answer am o. I sang to my satisfaction before answering him. He was shocked because he didn't even know my period was late. I just can't even explain this miracle. God is indeed awesome. Indeed it's only God that perfects conception. Please join me to worship this awesome Jehova. The only true and wise God. Oji obara akpu nwa... I have this words of encouragement for the remaining sisters still waiting. God is the only giver of children and what He does for one, He promised to do for others. Be steadfast in prayers, take your mind of it a times. Also please don't let any medical reports weigh you down.. I was diagnosed of so many. Blocked tube, multiple fibroids. Of late too, hubby was said to have low account. About three last tests he did is low 10, 5, and 15 million respectively. Am here to pray that this God that wiped my tears after 4years of waiting and after a failed ivf will remember each and every one of us here and this year will not end without God remembering many of us here. .. Amen! grin grin cheesy

Good morning mothers of great nations, please does anyone know any great fertility clinic in Netherlands especially The Hague, I will be there for 2 weeks and wanted to know if I could see a fertility specialist to rerun investigations. Please not just an Obstetrician or Gynaecologist but a hospital that also does ART(IVF/ IUI PROCEDURES). I need this info urgently as I would be there by weekend and I am finding it hard searching for one since there's a Dutch language barrier.

Myths And Misconceptions About In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)

IVF or In Vitro Fertilisation is not without its fair share of myths. Some people see IVF as an expensive treatment that only rich people can afford. To some, IVF treatments always result in twins and triplets.

In this mail, we have listed ten prevalent myths surrounding IVF and contrasting facts that dispel these myths:

Age is a barrier
This is false. Success rates of IVF may be affected by age. However, virtually women of all ages including post menopausal women can achieve pregnancy either with their own eggs or the use of donor eggs. However the safety of such a venture needs to be weighed in women of very advanced age group

Fertility medication causes cancer
Medical studies to date have concluded that fertility drugs are not linked to development of ovarian, breast and endometrial cancer.

Donating eggs will finish your eggs
This is not true. A woman is born with all the eggs she will never need in her lifetime. At menarche (her first menses) she has over 400,000 eggs and from that she requires only 400 in her lifetime. However every month she recruits or mobilizes a certain number say 20 only one or two grow to the point of being released around the middle of her cycle during the process of ovulation. The remaining 18-19 die off. What IVF does is to give drugs to sustain the growth of the 18-19 that will otherwise have died anyway. So there is no extra reduction in her eggs due to donation

Success rates are really poor
This is not true. Not every woman gets pregnant every time she has intercourse during her ovulation. Do you know that the chance of conception monthly on the average is 20% (1 in 5 couples)? The other 4 try again the following month. IVF success rates are even better than nature. They average 40-50% in young women less than 35 years of age
IVF is always successful; I should get pregnant after one attempt
This is not true. Just like even nature fails sometimes following intercourse at the right time (in fact most of the time) IVF can also fail. And because success rates are not 100% couples are advised to prepare for at least 2 cycles to achieve success. One failed attempt does not mean the next will fail either.

IVF is for women only
This is false. In fact there are several techniques (ICSI, IMSI, PICSI) designed to help situations where the man has problems with his sperms. There are situations where the woman is fine and the factor causing infertility is in the man (male factor infertility). She is only having IVF on behalf of the man if you like.

Intracytoplasmic morphologically selected sperm injection

IVF is the last solution to wait for
The earlier the couple present for IVF the better for best results as age is a factor in its success. Many times couples waste time and money seeking for solutions elsewhere when IVF is the only solution for example in situations of tubal blockage.

IVF only results in multiple pregnancy twins, triplet
This is not entirely true. Yes, IVF increases the chance of multiple births by about 25% however several IVF pregnancies result in singleton births and the risk of multiple births can be controlled by controlling the number of embryos transferred. Elective single embryo transfer is now being advocated to reduce the chance of multiple births.

All IVF pregnancies must be delivered by Caeserean section (C/S)
No. It depends on several factors. IVF pregnancies are like any other naturally conceived pregnancies. IVF pregnancy is not an indication for caesarean section. The doctor must assess the pregnancy and see if there are any obstetric indications for a caesarean delivery. However many couples having been trying for a baby for several years and with a high chance of multiple pregnancy will resort to the safer planned option of elective cesarean delivery. It is possible to have a normal vaginal delivery following IVF

IVF is really expensive; it is only for the rich
IVF is affordable and cost should not be a deterrent. Couples can save towards IVF in the same way they would save for other capital intensive projects. Some clinics have the option of instalmental payments and in some countries there is some form of insurance cover for IVF.

Sperm boosters can help men with low sperm count
In this era of evidence based medicine, there is currently no medical evidence to support the use of sperm boosters. Some of them may in fact be detrimental. Most are a waste of resources and time as the female partner is aging by the side as the male partner insists in using these mostly ineffective so called sperm boosters reducing their age dependent success rates. More so the cause of the sperm abnormality may not even be amenable to these medications for example absent testes or blocked vas deferens (the tubes that deliver the sperms). Instead behavioral modifications like abstaining from alcohol, cigarettes and marijuana and weight management could be more beneficial

well, i paid 850k in total. but this did not include tests and examinations.
I was asked to bring the results of the last hormonal profile and HSG and everything was fine.

so we just proceeded with the ivf. As per the success rate, i do not really know. A colleague who did hers at george's introduced the hospital to me.

At first, i was skeptical. But i just decided to give it a try. I paid for the procedure since last year, but was to scared to start the process until this year.
