I don't think anyone will actually think they will need to go through IVF in order to try to have a kid. Somehow, for some reason, some people seems to think having a kid is as easy as ABC. They didn't know that sometimes, in order for some people to have a kid, it can take years. It will actually take some hard work in order to even get pregnant. I know of people who are unable to conceive naturally and had to undergo IVF. I guess, I just never thought that I will be one of them.
We had been married for 4 years. Hub always wanted a kid. He thinks it is good if we are able to have one. If we can't, it doesn't really matter too. I want to have my own kids. Someday, one day, if I am able to. Our parents are not really giving us any pressure about having kids even though they had started to ask us about our plans of family planning. The good thing is that there is hardly any pressure over the traditional 传宗接代. So having a kid or not, is really up to our own decision.
It took us a while before we decided to go for IVF. I had undergone some tests, plot my BBT chart and all. Finally, we spoke to my gynae who said that IVF may be the route we had to go through if we want to have kids. We asked him for the cost involved to go through IVF as we were kind of worried if it will become something that we cannot afford in the end. There is no way we can just put a stop in midst of it after we start the whole procedure. My gynae mentioned that because Singapore government is encouraging people to give birth, we can use our medisave for the IVF treatment to cover a portion of it. IVF treatment is further subsidised through the Enhanced Co-funding of ART Scheme if we were to go to a government hospital. So if we want to pay minimal cash for this, we should go to the polyclinic to obtain a referral letter and go to the government hospital for IVF treatment instead of going to a private hospital.
Ultimately, I know I will want to try what is within my means to have a kid. It will actually be easy for me to say that I will just "Let nature takes its course" and if I don't have a kid, I can just blame it on fate. However, I know I won't want to look back when I am old and ask myself "Why didn't I try this route then? If I did, maybe I will already have a kid now."
So here is it... We are on to the unexpected Journey to having a kid via IVF...

ReplyDeleteIVF(In Vitro Fertilisation) is a well-known ART(assisted reproductive technology) used to help a couple conceive. In IVF, the fertilisation process happens in a laboratory, rather than inside the female partner’s body. The female partner’s eggs are retrieved from her ovaries and fertilised in a lab using the male partner’s sperm, which is taken from a semen sample. After fertilisation, the resulting embryo is then transferred to the uterus of the female, after being cultured in an incubator for a few days. The transfer is followed by implantation that results in pregnancy when successful.
