Any woman who has gone through infertility would understand how painful it is – both emotionally and physically and also strenuous on one’s pocket. I know it as I had gone through years of infertility before I had Alycia. I had sought various invasive methods of infertility treatments which include taking several rounds of Clomid, underwent a laser ovarian drilling and laparoscopy through a keyhole surgery, double Hysterosalpingogram (Uterotubogram) or HSG to unblock the Fallopian tubes and finally an IUI which is an artificial insemination.
Before I went for each infertility treatment, I surfed the internet and read up tons of information on treatments for infertility and the success rate. When I finally conceived Alycia after a single IUI procedure, hubby and I were elated. However, my pregnancy was not smooth sailing as it was plagued with troubles from the very start. Thank God, I managed to carry Alycia to full-term despite an initial pre-term labor threat (shortened cervix) at week 20 of my pregnancy. I was then ordered by my doctor to take leave from work for 3 months to bed-rest at home.
After Alycia was born, hubby and I were the happiest and proudest parents on earth. Alycia was our pride, joy and victory. I had absolutely no regrets going through what I had gone through and loved every bit being a mummy. Hubby and I wanted another baby soon and this time, we managed to conceive Sherilyn without any fertility treatments. Alycia and Sherilyn are indeed our 2 miracles and very soon, we will be expecting our third miracle!
