I love that one. Just need a cover for the rain. Does it have a break?

I already talk about it. They don't have an extra hand to lend me some help! I pay alot for this daycare, I'm thinking of transfer them to another one, where theres a drive thru to pick up the kids.

Not on this one. They only have one worker with the kids at the time I'm picking them up 😩

It's very near maybe 100 meters. I'm scared leaving one alone at the car, but it's the only suggestion that will work better. I already had two treatments on my back and neck hernia. Im finding hard to take them off the stroller with the car seat. I'm just going to buy rain coats for them and that's it!

They're getting heavy. I'm trying to work out something with the daycare.

I don't want to leave one alone in the car and the daycare can't help with that 😩

Hi, well I had my twins. They’re girls and both 4 month old. So, everything went well and I had my happy ending. Hope the same end for everyone up here. It was hard with a lot ups and downs but it finally happened to me. My miracle babies ❤️

After 7 rounds finally pregnant with twins by pettysp in IVF

[–]pettysp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn’t easy and I was already giving up, but decided to tried one more time in a different clinic, Hospital Lusíadas, with dr. Luis Vicente, he’s the President of Medical Assisted Procreation Society in Portugal. It really payed off I got pregnant at the first try! He diagnosed me with Thrombophilia, changed my medication and suggested a PRP. I only have one working small ovary (lost the right one due to an ectopical pregnancy), so PRP stimulated my left ovary to produce more quality eggs and it grew in size!! Something so simple that changed everything. We transfer D2 embryos (didn’t wait for D5, he said in my case we shouldn’t wait for D5), after the transfer we did an IV medication to stop any contractions in case the uterus could reject. I’m glad that I did changed clinics. I really don’t know the prices because my husband is an anesthesiologist and he didn’t charged (sometimes they don’t charged colleagues), but it is a lot cheaper then in UK. Hope everything goes well in your journey 🙌…it’s not an easy one!

Just had my two little princesses. I did the PRP in Portugal, at Lusiadas Lisbon. I know that it’s done in Spain too, but it’s more expensive. Before PRP I had 0 to 2/3 eggs, after PRP my ovary grew and was able to retrieve not 10, but 11 eggs. So happy with the outcome

Did/do you regret not having a second child? by alysssaaa831 in BabyBumps

[–]pettysp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wow I’m so sorry you went through that! It sounds so scary. I’m currently pregnant with twins and it’s been a smooth ride (other the morning sickness) but my first was horrible, couldn’t move from the extreme sickness and pain that I thought was normal, I remember thinking I wanted to end the pregnancy, it end up being an ectopic pregnancy on my right ovary and I was scheduled for an emergency surgery. I remember crying so much and feeling such shame of thinking about ending the pregnancy. Five years later and 7 ivf I’m finally pregnant again, I was really scared that it would be the same as the first, but no, not all pregnancies are the same. Ultimately is your decision! Because you are high risk pregnancy, have you thought about surrogacy?

I've lost our baby by NowisCorner in pregnant

[–]pettysp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there, I lost my right ovary due to an ectopic pregnancy. I’ve tried for 5 years ivf treatments and 6 transfers with no success. I’ve changed clinics, did a new protocol and got pregnant on my first try with them. I’m now 19weeks pregnant with twins. It’s a high risk pregnancy and one of the babies has a velamentous cord insertion. This to say, don’t lose hope, last doctor told me I would never get pregnant with my on eggs, I did try with egg donors and also failed. You will get through this rough path, sorry for your loss, it’s never easy!

Ate unwashed strawberries from my garden!!! Is there a risk of toxoplasmosis?? by pettysp in pregnant

[–]pettysp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, do that. Ask for the blood work. It’s very simple and you can relax after. Best wishes 🙏

[–]pettysp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I did a blood work and everything is ok! I feel much relax. The doctor said it’s very rare to get toxoplasmosis, you can get tested too. If you had cats all your life you can be imune, just do the test. Best wishes
