Nausea In the days following the test I am euphoric, but it’s also very unreal. After all the setbacks, all the meetings in which we heard about the real facts and figures, we got pregnant on the first try! I keep thinking, “There was only an 8% chance…!” But I also don’t want to celebrate …
Thank you! We would like to thank everybody from the bottom of our hearts, for all the reactions, messages, calls, flowers, sweets, presents and mail!! ♥ (Haven’t seen the last 2 blog posts? Check them here:https://fermontfotografie.nlen/now and https://fermontfotografie.nlen/68-reflection) From next week there will be a new blog every Monday at 7PM 🙂 See you then!
Reflection (Have you missed the blog before this one, with our announcement, then watch that first 😉 https://fermontfotografie.nlen/now) The last year has been an emotional rollercoaster ride. From trying to combine continuous hospital visits with my work, and constantly being busy with babies while wanting one so badly myself (and not knowing whether it would ever …
And what now? What do you do when you would really like to have a baby, but you can’t? There is still a taboo on this subject and lots of couples choose to keep this for themselves. Breaking this taboo is one of the reasons we chose to make our story public. We didn’t expect …
Een paar weken geleden werden we benaderd door “Ophij” het broertje van “Opzij”. Ze wilden graag Denny interviewen over zijn teruggedraaide vasectomie n.a.v. onze blogs over het proberen zwanger te worden. Denny vond het leuk om mee te werken en zie hier het resultaat!
One more day.. Out of the whole process so far, these have been the worst weeks of all. Everything you feel, and I mean everything, gets weighed up. The abdominal pain was gone after 3 days, but of course, if there’s nothing in my womb then that’s logical. Every now and then I feel twinges, …
Waiting weeks On a Friday evening we go to the opening of a new place in Middelburg. And while there I suddenly develop intense pain in my abdomen. Oh no. 🙁 Is it going wrong already?! Positivity is gone. I try to keep going, but it gets worse and worse, so I soon tell Denny …
The transfer I answer the phone, “Hello, this is Marry Fermont.” At UMCG they understand how it is done. They don’t waste time, and immediately say why they’ve called… “I have good news. Your embryo has divided well, and you have an appointment for the transfer at 13:15.” What?!?! Really? I repeat what she’s said, …
A good embryo? The fertilization takes place on the same day as the egg retrieval. Well, that’s when they put the sperm and egg together in the lab. Whether fertilization takes place remains to be seen, as does the question of healthy cell division of a fertilized egg. Because this all needs to happen within …
His seed Now it’s Denny’s turn. The lady from the lab – who is also very friendly, it seems like there are only friendly people working here – says that I can go with Denny, but he doesn’t want to even think about it. I go into the waiting room. It takes, for Denny, quite …
