Hi Angie,
Thanks for your reply...I am stressed that I won't be able to carry...my
sister had a very painful pregnancy. The placenta wasn't feeding the
baby and the doctors had to induce pregnancy at 7mths. The baby then
developed NEC and most of her bowel was removed. My sister's organs
fused together...cancer was found in her bowel, but thankfully it was
discovered early enough and removed. They are all well now, but I fear
this could happen to me.
So sorry to hear you are unable to have children and had very painful
experiences. My thoughts are with you.
All the best and thank you,
Tanya
