TTC After a Loss
IVF is our only option
Hello ladies, I'm back from vacation. I hope you all had a nice week.
Last week, I got a VM from my RE, and she said that DH's b/w came back, and it showed that he has Translocation - which is essentially switching of chromosomes during conception. This leads to m/c's and if a baby were to make it, it would have sever defects or retardation. DH is devastated - he started Googling last night, and blaming himself for my m/c's.
The RE said that we could do IVF and should have good success. I have a call into her office and I'm still waiting to hear back from her.
This discussion has been closed.

Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle!

I am so, so sorry.
Major hugs to you, and your DH.
We have been doing alot of research into this, and there is so much hope this can work.
Good luck!

This.
I have a balanced translocation and a healthy DD. Got ku with her our second month trying and no issues (so it is possible). We didn't find out about the translocation until the third loss trying for #2. DD is either normal or a balanced translocation too.
What is his translocation? I'm 7/13.
For other options... you could do IUI with doner sperm or try natural but have a CVS or Amnio. For us it was natural with CVS/amnio or IVF (with PGD).
Feel free to PM me if you want to talk.

I'm so sorry hun.
:::big hugs:::
This.
I did a lot of research on translocations when our doctor suggested against genetic testing. There is a lot of hope, I think, with a good and capable doctor.
