Our baby boy

18. September, 2018

“We were trying to get pregnant for exactly five years and two months. It wasn’t possible for us to conceive naturally due to endometriosis diagnosed by my doctor. The only way to have a baby was artificial fertilization.

“It took us a year before we decided to undergo an IVF treatment”.

 

It took us a year before we decided to undergo an IVF treatment. The genetic testing came off well so nothing prevented us from beginning with the hormonal stimulation. After the pick-up of oocytes which took place June 2nd 2017 we found out that I had 7 egg cells and 5 of them was possible to fertilize. After six days of cultivation we were told that we had only one blastocyst that was necessary to cryopreserve since one of the genetic tests of mine wasn’t done yet.

“We couldn’t believe our own eyes when we saw the two lines on the pregnancy test after 14 days”.

 

The transfer of our only embryo finally took place on the 1st of September 2017. We couldn’t believe our own eyes when we saw the two lines on the pregnancy test after 14 days. After so many years! The doctor confirmed my pregnancy at a check-up and new, more beautiful phase of our lives began.

Screening and ultrasounds were absolutely fine and our baby was doing very well. However, in the 19th week my vaginal portion of cervix started to shorten, since then I had to lay in bed. Fortunately, everything ended up well and on the 8th April 2018 our baby boy Honzík was born. Although he came into the world a little bit earlier, exactly in the 34th week, he’s absolutely healthy and makes us very happy”.

Thank you, Repromeda.
