pregnant chicks

Most fertility clinics will offer you a pregnancy test within two weeks after your treatment but if you want to do one for yourself, home tests will also give you a reasonably true indication at a couple of weeks. Many women forget that often when home pregnancy tests are held too quickly after treatment, they can sometimes show a false positive answer.

Of course, there are other signs of pregnancy for example: feeling sick, using the bathroom more often, lack of menstrual cycle, mood shifts, tiredness and improved sensation of smell and taste.

By And Large, the fertility clinic will stay in touch in the first few weeks when you get pregnant to carry out ultrasound scans to monitor the development of your foetus. Some fertility clinics that do not continue supporting you after their part of the agreement is complete so alternative arrangements will have to be made to look after your pregnancy and delivery.

Quite often it takes a short while for a woman to come to terms with the fact they’re having a baby after a course of fertility treatment so don’t worry if, initially, you are not as excited about as you thought you expected to be. There is nothing wrong with this, but the fundamental thing is to learn to live with your emotions whatever they are, and to remember that virtually all mums-to-be go through a mix of emotions on finding out they are pregnant whether they have had fertility treatment or not.

A common misconception is that a pregnancy from fertility treatment will be harder than an individual who hasn’t gone through fertility treatment however, you may feel it more emotionally unsettling. Although, at times it might mean you need more scans or appointments at the hospital. The reason for this could be because they have had previous problems before like miscarriages, multiple birth, and stillbirths or, owing to their general health. One of the most important reasons is when the mum is older because as you age the more likely it is that troubles will occur.

You may be surprised to learn that over a million infants around the world have been born as a consequence of assisted conception treatment such as In Vitro Fertilization and the chances are you will give birth to a healthy baby. Even with the safety record, you can never say there won’t be any problems experienced in a pregnancy, irrespective of whether it was assisted or not because they all have some risk but the majority of the time these are only insignificant. Women everywhere should try to revel in their preganancy as much as you can and slow down even though it might be easier said than done.

Unfortunately the amount of miscarriages after using IVF is above those for normal conception. The two causes for this are well documented: the first being that almost all women that undergo fertility treatment experience a pregnancy test early into the pregnancy. Alternatively a woman who has become pregnant by the regular route might believe she has had a late period but has in fact created a fertilized egg that did not implant correctly. The other problem is down to age because women who have fertility treatment are usually older than women who don’t, and the risks of miscarrying increase as the woman gets older. If you are worried about anything related to this, you should speak to a consultant from your fertility clinic.

Even so you must remember that there’s always a possibility of a test showing a false positive result if it is done too early.

If you are unsure, then there are physical signs of being pregnant for instance: feeling sick, using the bathroom more frequently, lack of menstrual cycle, mood changes, weariness and finer sense of aromas and taste.

There are other clinics that do not keep on with support after their work is done so alternative arrangements will have to be sorted out to look after your pregnancy and delivery.

Some people take a little while to come to terms with the fact they’re going to have a child after a course of fertility treatment so don’t concern yourself if, initially, you are not as excited about as you thought you would be. This is perfectly normal but the fundamental thing is to learn to live with your emotions whatever they are, and to remember that virtually all mums-to-be go through a mix of emotions on learning they are going to have a baby whether they have had fertility treatment or not.

In reality, your pregnancy probably won’t be any more difficult than an individual who hasn’t used fertility treatment however, you may feel it more emotionally unsettling.

It may not be easy but try to relax and enjoy your pregnancy if at all possible.

It is a harsh reality but the figure for women who miscarry after receiving fertility treatment like In Vitro Fertilization is just a little more than women who become pregnant naturally. This is because women who have fertility treatment are likely to have a pregnancy test very early on in the pregnancy. Occasionally, where a woman has conceived through normal means, she could have what she believes is a late period but it is where the embryo hasn’t implanted. Another problem is of course the risk of miscarriage rises with the mothers age because women who undergo fertility treatment tend, on average to be, older than those who conceive normally. If you are unsure about anything it is best to consult with your specialist at the clinic.
