Re: PAIF Check-in 5/5
Any symptoms? nausea occasionally, insomnia has hit like an s.o.b. the sleep was so good while it lasted
Rant/Rave? i was hoping some of the symptoms would improve off meds, but its basically the same
Next appointment? tomorrow is our first OB appt! I feel better about this one than the others because ive been able to monitor baby on the doppler.
Questions? anyone do pgs testing with fet? we have a high level mosaic embryo and the geneticist we talked to suggested we do amniocentesis to make sure the genetic abnormality they found didn't carry on, but I am very weary about that. I don't like the risk of miscarriage and I don't know even if the baby did have the defect if we would change anything.

Well we lived in a different city, I had a completely different job working in nursing homes right when the pandemic hit, we hadn't even started fertility treatments yet, so didn't really know our true diagnosis of not only MFI, but also poor egg quality. Two egg retrievals later, lots of injections, tears, heartache, a move, a job change and here we are.
