Matt passed me a bag, inside was a card with a beautiful letter he’d written that made all my tears melt away and the most beautiful soft white rabbit
But Plan A is good….. We sat in the car after the scan and Matt rationalised everything for us. “This is good news Bec” and he was right, it was fantastic news. There may of been problems with the little one had it survived, which could of effected the strength of the other one too. ….. We had made it to week 9, I have the best husband in the world and I am pregnant WOW. The next 3 weeks were going to take forever!!
I called the midwife at Pembury hospital to tell her we now had a singleton, which meant my pregnancy would take a much simpler course but I would still be consultant led rather than midwife led, due to being older and the complications that can entail
So now we await the 12 week scan and the combined test for Downs Syndrome, which brings its’ own worries. I hopefully have a lower risk factor due the fact that my donor is 21 years old but you can never count it out, what will be, will be.
Until then, we carry on and start to enjoy the fun things, like pram shopping etc (already found THE ONE), I have to say it’s almost as much fun as finding your wedding dress! We have also decided that we won’t be finding out what we’re having. So much in life isn’t left as a surprise anymore and I can’t think of anything more exciting than going into labour or surgery for a Caesarian and having that anticipation of ….what will it BE.
We are now 12 weeks https://hookupdate.net/sugar-daddies-usa/ and 1 day pregnant and still the injections continue but now they are making me cry ( it’s only been the last couple of weeks that they have become unbearably painful) The ending of these excites me nearly as much as the 12 week scan next week. I cannot wait till June 28th when 5 months of pill popping and needle jabbing will be over, I might even have a glass of bubbly to celebrate.
PLEASE don’t feel you need to ask me to pass the blog address on, I wrote it in the first place to help me but also to help others feel they are not alone. I am over the moon for this to be given to anyone you feel it may interest. I have been asked many times if this is ok and now I can safely say ‘yes’. Only the other day I read on the front of the paper that women are being wrongly informed that they will get pregnant over the age of 40 without IVF or donor egg (it does of course happen in a small amount of cases) but the bottom line is, that the majority of celebrities you see with babies over that age are mostly not being truthful and medical intervention has played it’s part. Time to be open and honest methinks.
On a more somber note, those of you who have followed this blog will recall the beautiful Lady LaRue, who inspired me through his strength of character to go straight into our last shot of IVF. Stephen has been taken into a hospice in the last couple of weeks as his life is nearing an end…. He is still making others laugh and I for one will never forget what he inadvertently did for us. So spare a moment for this outrageously funny, beautiful man as he prepares for his next adventure. Thank you Stephen for giving me the courage to continue, I owe you! X
