The Unnecessary Panic

13 May 2015

Being a first timer pregnant woman, I had no idea what to expect.. I did my homework and do the readings, but when I found a little trace of spotting, I immediately panicked and saw my obgyn. Dr Andi Hudono was not available, so I went to see Dr Robert Alief, despite the nurses saying that it's normal and is a common sign of pregnancy.

So I went ahead and see Dr Alief and after he scanned my tummy, he said everything was ok and I should have some rest.

    Hi

    A big congrats on your success, and double happiness of conceiving twins. I am also doing my ivf with dr Colin so am super pleased to read your post. I've done my egg retrieval in May nut due to my age, we also had to do PGD. I also had to clean up my uterus due to polyps so will only be going back for frozen egg transfer sometime in sept. I'm going 41 and from Singapore. May I know how old are you? We had 4 embryos at day 5 and 6. But after PGD, we have 2 normal babies. Very happy w that. Still undecided if we'd put 2 in or just 1. How did u reach the decision of putting both in? Did Dr Colin recommended tt u do tt?

    Once again for blogging on this. Very happy to hear your positive news. Good luck on your journey and rest well.

      Hi Celeste, sorry to respond so late. I'm 33 and these twins will be our first ones. Dr Colin made the decision for us, he did not even ask our opinion, so we thought that's the procedure. Since we don't have any kids yet, we don't mind having two (or three as the nurse said would be the max number of children that can be conceived when 2 embryos are put in)

      :)
