don't mind telling u all.. im a teacher so my work starts very early! even before the nuh clinic opens haha then plus all the waiting time.. aiyo.
the first cycle i took mc halfway during stims too (5days) because my job is really hectic, got alot of students always looking for me literally all day long, even msging me at night. so if im on mc, they will know not to keep msging me. i did work abit from home..
anw, i explained to my boss and told her abt my previous miscarriages, so she was ok with me going for a round of ivf. but now, so soon again, i gotta tell her i might be away for 3 wks in sept which is very close to exam period.. oops.. i dont think she was expecting this.. like i think she will expect i find a better timing like during school holidays?
i know that my students will definitely be affected too, and actually i wasn't planning to do next cycle until december but then i still have leftover from the first pgd kit that will expire if i dont use up in two mnths.. so if i do straightaway, i save a v substantial amount of money i dont have to fork out cash for the nxt pgd kit again.. and u know this whole infertility journey is v financially taxing! two previous pregnancies/miscarriages, all the tests, ivfs etc already used up alot of money.
btw
@cen, pgd totaly cost depends on number of embryos u test, up to 5 is abt $8k cash on top of normal ivf. if u have 10, it's about $11k! all must pay cash. the first round for me, they did a d3 biopsy so that when the results are out, will do a d5 blast transfer.
wonder what u girls think? i feel quite guilty towards my students also..
