Hey just throwing some hope I'm mid 40s and expecting first child thru ivf Kkh protocol, day 5 embryo, grade b. It's untested embryo. Don't let the gynaes and insurance people get u down, it's possible to hVe a baby after 40

You girls are an inspiration! Jia you

i guess your concern is money? ask him if he can lower or waive it if its a short consultation.

im with kkh as private. its ok but some of the testing are handled by nurses and student doctors. If you have the cash, you can also google private doc, there are a few mentioned in this forum

if you really want a child, then next step is to try artificially through a doc or go natural route. the artificial route cost both time commitment and money so save up while you can. the time commitment bit, i guess you have to make time, or you can try natural until you decide its time to do...

How is everyone doing? Probably best and easier to chat here

Despite my miscarriage, i actually think my ivf was a success. it was at kkh. the doctors delivered the result of fertilising the egg and planting it in womb. thats what ivf is. what happens after is independent of the procedure, its up to what you are doing.

i asked for pre embryo testing but i couldnt do it because my current ones are already frozen. gynae at KK was against it, saying not foolproof and taking cells out of so little cells is harmful.

hi twinkle, a few months have passed and have you seen other docs or are you waiting until july 2023? Thanks much for sharing, I'm in the same predicament.

u can ask your thyroid specialist about pregnancy. he would know how to treat the thyroid part while your gynae continues as normal

so how is it? mine had no heartbeat hence aborted at 9 weeks

it could be your thyroid too. it is quite common among women for thyroid problems

did anyone do prenatal screening of the embryo prior to implantation? I was told by my doc I cannot do it for the frozen embryos, but i wonder if its true. there is subsidy...

hmm decide to have a cut off age where you want to be a 3rd time mum? Then dispose of the eggs after.

nope, private is from 20 k, you can ask them for a quote before you start.
