Ivf bad result
We were hoping to have another brother or sister for my 10 month and fell pregnant 3 months ago.i was told I couldn't keep baby as the beast cancer I'd been diagnosed with 1 week later was a Grade 3....
To be honest i wasn't sure how i felt about it as i had no time to contemplate, only a weekend so we just rolled with it. it didn't quite sit right anyway, I'm not one for playing with nature and i understand what length women will go to to have a child as its such a yearning and natural pull, so i certainly don't condemn the process of IVF i just wasn't quite ready. I wasn't ready to make any decisions or shut doors, you are brave to stand strong and say no. To be happy with what you have. I guess i even felt greedy wanting a child at this stage but it was about securing a safety net for the future. To be honest i wasn't sure if i would even have the energy at 42 (which is the minimum recommended wait time of post treatment of 2 years) not that its old but i just don't know how my energy levels will fair after i come out the other side of this. Emma - have you finished your chemo?
