mabelly: Consider which option? The option that involves flushing your fetus, if the genotype is SS? How many are you willing to abort to get your ‘desired’ genotype? Op I don’t think that love will be strong enough to weather the storm that comes with this. Love is not selfish! Let him go, God will provide a compatible man for you. 1 Like 1 Share |

OP, don't intentionally bring kids into the world to suffer. Pleeeease! 1) Either find someone else you're compatible with, so you can give birth to healthy kids! 2) Or stay together and look into other options, like adoption! 1 Like |

I don't wish death for either of you, but if one of you die, will the other one remain single for the rest of your life. Why do you decide to bring pain to innocent baby? If you've ever seen pain that associate with SS children, you'll never try to bring such children to this world. I have 2 as siblings, one is gone and God's grace is what's keep the other. Please be wise, avoid deliberate bringing of problems into your family. Look for other girls for betterment of both of you. This is just an advice.[color=#000000][/color] EmpresFIDEL: 1 Like |

EmpresFIDEL: You don't need to break up.. Read more on 1. PGD ( Prenatal pregnancy test)CVS The foetus is tested about 10 weeks and if it's SS( you can decide to keep it or do as you wish) it's don at the sickle cell centre at idi-araba @ 280k as at Febuary this year, you can go there to find out more. 2. IVF + PGD This is more expensive as it's an IVF procedure plus test done on the fertlized egg before implantation and might cost upward 2m depending on the centre you decide to do it. Basically..you eggs are retrieved during ovulation and the husbands sperm is used to fertilize the eggs , afterwards the eggs are tested ( bare in mind during IVF , more than 10 eggs can be retrieved). After ferlization and eggs tested..you can discard the SS ones and request the AS or AA ones to be implanted back into you ( you can decide to have twins this way) and or freeze the remaining eggs( if you are lucky to have many that are AS or AA) so next time..you only come for implantation Mind you this procedure cost alot( budget 2m and above for this) And if you do none of the above and have a SS child Then you next option is bone marrow transfer ( this is still but a procedure already done at uniben and sickle cell centre @ idi araba planning to start soon) Above are your options medically. If you both love each other as you proclaimed..those above are the available options now and will involve sacrifice. All the the best and Good luck 7 Likes |

charliboy654: So you are encouraging the couple to commit abortion and kill a fetus because they are stu.pid enough not to marry some one else because of the irrational love each other. I wish they aborted you. |

Home Blog How to Prevent Your Baby from Inheriting Sickle Cell Disease How to Prevent Your Baby from Inheriting Sickle Cell Disease How to Prevent Your Baby from Inheriting Sickle Cell Disease 03:53 25th September 2017 | Sickle Cell Prevention SCD PGD Sickle Cell Disease Sickle Cell Anemia Genetic Conditions Embryos Sickle Cell Prevention The last thing loving parents want for their children is suffering. Grazed knees and broken hearts are essentially inevitable, but almost all parents will do everything they can to protect their children from anything even remotely threatening. UNFORTUNATELY THERE ARE SOME THREATS LURKING AROUND, EVEN BEFORE BIRTH. Sickle cell disease (SCD), also known as sickle cell anemia, is a condition inherited from one’s parents and therefore not contagious. Unfortunately, this genetic condition has serious effects including vision problems, delayed growth, frequent infections, painful swelling of the hands and feet and fatigue caused by the anemia (shortage of healthy red blood cells). The worst and main symptom, however, is severe pain (sickle cell crisis). Repeat episodes, of varying intensity, can last for hours or even weeks. In time, it leads to organ damage which may or may not include the skin, bones, joints, brain, eyes, lungs, heart, spleen, liver, kidneys and penis. FORTUNATELY, THANKS TO PGD, BABIES DON’T HAVE TO BE BORN WITH SCD. Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) is a procedure during which fertility specialists can test embryos for genetic conditions, before assisted implantation and conception. By doing this, babies don’t have to inherit certain conditions from their parents and suffer the consequences. PGD is done through the biopsy of day 5 embryos generated through the In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) process. IVF is not necessarily needed to help couples who request PGD as some of them do not have infertility challenges, but to test for genetic conditions, an IVF needs to be done. Once the fertilized eggs become embryos, cells are biopsied to test for specific genetic conditions like Sickle cell. Healthy embryos can then be selected for implantation. Preimplantation genetic screening (PGS) can also be performed on embryos during IVF treatment to screen for numerical chromosomal abnormalities. Bridge Clinic’s fertility specialists can test for 13 genetic disorders and chromosomal abnormalities. https://www.thebridgeclinic.com/blog/how-to-prevent-your-baby-from-inheriting-sickle-cell-disease 1 Like |

So I joined nairaland to reply to this. Everyone would say It's a foolish thing to do. Marry someone when you know that you could end up birthing children that could die because you chose to ignore common sense. But everyone is not in love with your partner. And that's love. Only you can see what you see in him that makes this worth it. There are medical options out there. It's 2018. Google choronic villus sampling (CVS). It's quite expensive. But it's an option. These are life choices. I don't think you need the whole world to give you advices except you can deal with the kind of confusion you'd find yourself in. Cheers. 4 Likes |

EmpresFIDEL: Though this is a tough case but you are not without options. However, the onus lies on you to decide which of the options to take. If you believe in miracles, good for you. However, I will advice you should pray for a miracle that will change your genotype before marriage rather than gp through though times praying nothing happens to the child. Again, I am 100% sure the two of you can go ahead, get married, have 100 children and all of them turn out AA. The chances are very slim but that doesn't mean it can not happen. It is all about probability and not certainty. Only God can help you sort this out naturally. Good luck in your decisions though. I join my faith with yours to declare that all is well with you both and you are made whole in Jesus name. 2 Likes |

Amniocentesis that's the process, it's done in the US. If you both can let go, that'll be better . . . easier said than done though. We couldn't let go, we risked it and we were lucky, but I swear that's the dumbest and most wicked thing a couple could do (risking it). You can't have kids without amniocentesis that would be evil! Separation is better by far, no one needs such devastating situation in his/her life. |

Babygirl, pls just let him go. My late best friend while in high skul came from a family with ss issues. Three died in a straigh row in a space of four years. All died while in final year in the uni. Then came my friend as we finished high skul n were about to enter uni. His own crisis started. My friend begged for death but death refused to come fast. It was eating him slowly.the pain was excruciating.Their parents, I cnt describe what they passed thru. The pains of losing kids almost every year and always in their finals sent the two of them to their early graves due to heartbreak. My dear dnt try this bcs when it starts this ur love will turn to resenment and hatred and regret. MAY GOD'S WISDOM PREVAIL. let him go pls. 4 Likes 1 Share |
