Selective reduction!!
Well I went to my doctors today and had an ultrasound (I'm 6 weeks) and to my surprise (big surprise) the doctor found 4 maybe 5 heartbeats. I was so surprised. I knew I had 6 matured follicles when I did the iui but I didn't think 5 of those would actually implant. Now they are telling me that I have to get a selective reduction and reduce the pregnancy to a twin pregnancy. I am so sad and scared. Has anyone ever been through a selective reduction? What was it like and how painful was it?
they may have problemsbut are you willing to have a baby with down syndrom and take the responsibility for it. They are the happiest kids ever! The chances of haveing them be deformed is rare the highest probibilty is Downs! Im def not trying to pressure you but honestly I think that if I were in your shoes I would keep them and take what God Gives me!
I am just thinking about the risks there is of having multiples. I would love to keep them all, of course, but what happens if they are born with serious birth defects that are long term? Won't they be suffering? I am in a very tough situation and I only want what is best for them all!!! I am so confused.
Exactly! i was reading their wikipedia page (of Jon & Kate plus 8) and they said the doctor wanted them to make selective reduction but they said they couldn't do it and their kids look so cute
I gotta say if it was me. I wouldn't reduce. God has a plan and those babies are apart of it. You do NOT have to reduce. Think clearly about it though.
hey do you watch Juoh and kate + 8? ok well not to compare anything but the pregnancy! My theory is that if it is ment to be it is.. If you were to do selectivereduction you may fell guilty for the rest of your life! I know I would as well as wonder if they would have all been healthy! Why dont you Private message me and we can talk in private! You seem so confused and upset andI would love to chat! Hope to hear from you soon!
I do feel so depressed b/c I seen all the little hearts beating. It was the most wonderful thing. I do think about the babies health and I don't want any of my babies with birth defects. I am so confused!!
