Hi everyone!

I can't quite believe it but after a while year we only went and filled the last thread.

I'll tag you all below so that you can find me!

If anyone silently reading along wants to keep following - here's the place. If anyone wants to read the fertility journey for the last year have a look through the last thread.

Thanks so much for sharing that @lavafield it’s really good to hear from someone who has been through it! I’ll certainly see if the consultant will give me his opinion even though I know they’re not allowed away us either way. I feel like there are such pros and cons for both. I also know that inductions can often end in sections and I’ve heard that recovery from an emergency section can be even worse than recovery from a planned section so it’s really hard to know what to do but I’ll try get a good steer today. I have heard that too about babies often not being as large as they estimated!

Not sure it will ever be something I need to worry about, but if I'm ever lucky enough to make it to term I already know I want an ELCS.

Emergency surgery was the scariest thing I've been through, I'd much rather have a planned section and not worry about needing an emergency one. Not that there's a right choice, but if you choose one you shouldn't feel bad.

As my update, I'm due to have another transfer next cycle. I'm only CD12 currently and will begin drugs on my next CD1 - so just a couple of weeks time. Transfer is likely to be towards the end of May.

We are adding blood thinners this time, which might help avoid early miscarriage, if this transfer also takes. They didn't want me to do a double transfer so we will be sticking with a single again.

@MocktailMe Good to get your updates! I am in awe how resilient and strong you are, keep going! Adding blood thinners might be the thing you needed!? I know someone who failed to get pregnant for many years until she started taking blood thinners early. Wishing you all the best for your next transfer! ❤️

@WaitingformiracleYes, that was also a factor for my decision, inductions can escalate to emergency sections. And recovery from an emergency section is much more difficult as the body has already gone through the stresses of the induction
