Infertility treatment step by step: surrogacy and egg donation in BioTexCom
A choice of international reproductive clinic is kind of a leap in the dark. That is why it is very important to be informed. The more information you have the better choice you can make. We will show you how it works in details
I can hardly believe this happens. Well, I'm not going to judge anyone. Sometimes it does happen we have urgent things to do at home so we can't come to the place just in time needed but every difficulty can be solved to my mind. This is the matter of communication simply. Well, for some reasons you cannot be with your baby from the moment of birth. I guess this is possible to contact the clinic and ask for some additional services. I mean they provide a babysitter from 9am to 6pm, so you may ask for yet another one to take care of your baby untill morning..so on untill the day you come. Guys are understanding, I think it is possible to find the way out always than simply ignore responsibilities. I was really shocked to hear this happens at the clinic. Anastasia seems also worried on the point. For me this situation is definitely strange. Why should I have someone else to take care of my baby the firts days we see each other in this world! I'm gonna do everything myself. No babysitter -just ME. I'm sorry things happen..
ReplyDeleteI'm with you andy. No babysitter -just me! Dh and I TTC for 4.5 years. We experienced 3 failed iui cycles. Got bfp with iui#4, unfortunately resulting in terminated -ectopic pregnancy 5w6d. Got another bfp the following year. I miscarried (test results came in Trisomy 16). Yet another bfp with FET - mc, organs damaged.We had to move on surrogacy plan. Our adorable Jack Matthew was born 2015 and I was by the surrogate's side in the operating room and can't imagine this happened other way. Though cases differ but we don't judge surely.
ReplyDeleteWe all know that if the delivery is planned, parents will be notified to come to the clinic at a convenient time so they can be present at the time of the birth. Overseas couples should be prepared to travel to the clinic at any time after week 36 when the clinic decides that the pregnancy is complete. When the baby is born it receives a quick evaluation to make sure that it is breathing well and healthy in most respects. Then the nurses usually bring the baby to the parents immediately. So they can take a first look at the child. Then the child is returned to the obstetrics room for a more complete examination. He's washed, wrapped, and checked into the hospital where he will stay under supervised care. The baby is never in the custody of the surrogate!! And from the first moment, the intended parents are assumed by the hospital to be the child’s guardians! After a few days of observation and evaluation, the baby is released from the hospital in the care of the parents. Again I can hardly imagine things go not like this....
ReplyDeleteWell, all things said are truth. I guess all mums find the first months caring for their baby a steep learning curve! Fortunately from the moment of birth your baby won't do much more than sleep, cry, and feed. Meaning all you need to do-- in theory-- is provide food, cuddles, and somewhere safe and comfy for her to snooze! I wanted to have every other thing controlled from the first day. I wanted to experience everything with my beautiful newborn via surrogacy, as I felt like some time lost when not being attached through 9 months. Parents might feel a bit alarmed by some aspects of their baby's appearance. I mean, newborn babies heads are often a bit squashed by their journey down the birth canal...One should be prepared. Then in first hours and days, your baby's eyes often appear as though they are squinting. Our nurse at Biotexcom explained this is because newborns can't yet control the muscles round their eyes. They also have sensitive skin. Hair- they may have a mop of it or very little. Either way, it's likely to change in quantity and colour in the coming months. All this is so nice and touchy and responsible at the same time to keep an eye on the baby from the first moments. They are precious. Hardly there could be a good excuse for not coming to babies in time..Sadly enough..
ReplyDeleteTheir nurses are awesome! All things explained properly and in time! Our girl was born a couple of weeks ago. And frankly speaking there were lots of things we weren't actually prepared for. Things read and things on practice differ so much!!!
DeleteWe didn't know for example, that they don’t show up in x-rays, but the baby does have kneecaps! They are cartilage and will remain so for the first few years of live. A newborn baby’s head accounts for about 25% of the entire weight! Newborns are only able to focus 8 to 10 inches from their face. They also prefer blank and white, high-contrast images to colored, graphic ones. For the first time we heard that baby boys are usually heavier than baby girls. When babies are born, they have 300 bones. Their bones fuse as they grow and, eventually, the will have 206 bones. They typically sleep up to 16 or 17 hours a day. Here's yet another thing - a baby can breathe and swallow at the same time until 7 months of age. A newborn baby’s heart beats 130 to 160 times per minute, about twice the heart rate of a normal adult. Just thought I could add your sweet post about newborns :)
Exactly! Thank you for this kind informative post. On the other hand, I just thought how our lives change when we finally get the LO..You just plain love life more – everything comes together and becomes better because of one tiny person and your love for them.
DeleteYou finally find out the real reason you have those breasts. lol The support you get from other people surprises you, because the people giving it are not always the ones you'd expect. Nothing is just yours any longer. You share just everything!!
No matter what you've accomplished in life, you look at your child and think, 'I've done a super great job!'
This video made me sad.. I mean I cannot understand why the things mentioned happen. Furthermore, I guess if it was one episode only, you wouldn't have created this video at all. Seems new parents do not come in time quite often. THIS makes me sad. I'm not here to judge or say it's wrong, but I'm sure this is not the way things should be done. We've just been successfully through surrogacy with biotexcom. Our princess is just a couple of weeks home with us after the flight from her second motherland. We were doing VIP plan so had the opportunity to be present at delivery. Our surrogate was amazing. She was coping super well, following all the dr's directions. She did great job for our family, we're extremelly happy we could see our girl's arrival with own eyes. I personally cannot imagine things went on differently. We could have a babysitter from 9 am till 6 pm, but didn't use this service too often. Just in case we needed some paperwork to be done. We've been waiting for our girl for so long! And now she was with us..I wanted to be every other second with her.
ReplyDeleteSee, with those things said I'm not perfect. Just a human who makes mistakes like others. But I'm trying to learn from them. I believe parenting could be challenging for people. All they need is time. Time to get used to their new status- being new parents.
This video is very informative and points some of the could be problems. A nice way to talk to parents and help them successfully through.
Thank you

ReplyDeleteI'm sorry things like that happen..Anastasia seems quite disappointed..Though I might be wrong. I also believe new parents must have some serious reasons for not coming to the repro center on time. Otherwise it's hard to understand..Lindsey hawks, love your comment. Hope those episodes are going to be rare ones.
ReplyDeleteWell, the law says sth like this 'Parental responsibility means the legal rights, duties, powers, responsibilities and authority a parent has for a child and the child's property. A person who has parental responsibility for a child has the right to make decisions about their care and upbringing.' I truly can't understand how all this can be neglected. Even though those are just the first steps/days/weeks whatever. Nothing can be more important than your newborn! This is my personal point of view.
ReplyDeleteI'm not going to judge sb or sth. Will just say I can't see the point in explaining the obvious things. Well, you can be busy enormously at home and may not come in time to the place. But do it tomorrow, not after weeks! I don't understand who should than care about babies if not their parents?! The clinic's doing a huge amount of work for every couple. Starting from the preparing all te necessary documents. They do offer the babysitter's service from 9am to 6pm, but should they do it for 24 hrs/7?! Guys, that's really irresponsible
ReplyDeleteNothing can get you prepared for how stressful and emotionally draining IVF can be. It's not just because you get a hormonal, drug-fuelled mess. Moreover, it’s not just one visit. It’s multiple visits on a tight schedule! A commitment is required. We are loyal, dedicated people who tend to see obstacles as challenges. Even on our best days we find it difficult to adhere to the injection schedule and get out of bed for daily 7 a.m. blood work and ultrasound. The only thing that keeps us going during this time is having sb's support. Be this dh or relative or a friend. Anyway getting treatments always reminds of the end goal - expanding our families. And when it happens I'm sure we'll be there with our kid!
ReplyDeleteInfertility treatments involve significant financial, physical, psychological and time commitments. All these are perfectly balanced in Biotexcom clinic, Kiev. I can hardly think of any other place offering such services for those money costs. VIP surrogacy plan covers the IP from money loss! Biotexcom guarantee says they'll try again and again unless the baby is placed in your hands. Drs and nurses keep an eye on your baby all the time, starting from the initial stage and up to several weeks after delivery (depends on the length of the exit process). IP shouldn't neglect things though. If a babysitter is avaliable from this and up to this hour, this doesn't mean someone has to take this responsibility clock round. It's obvious. There are also other new families, where the clinics staff takes care of babies as well. Their weekly updates on fb show exact numbers. So many newborns to take care off. I'm not judging. Reasons may be truly serious at times. If coincidence – it's normal. If it's ''trend'' – than no good by all means.
ReplyDeleteI can hardly imagine such situations. but we're here not to judge. new parents must have had some urgent things to do at home, so that they cannot fly the very same day..Anyway, if this does happen - there's a plently of ways to solve the trouble. For example, contacting the manager and ask for some ''additional help'' which will be paid as soon as you arrive. I'm sure guys will never say ''NO''. The thing is to solve the problem immediately, and not make others worry on things the new parents are already resposible for.
ReplyDeleteOh God, it's really really sad to hear.. It’s such an exciting time being pregnant and waiting patiently for your newbaby o arrive. But when your bundle of joy finally puts in an appearance, the reality of life with your new baby can be quite daunting. I love the way http://www.bounty.com explains this.~
ReplyDelete''If you give birth in hospital, the first day can be quite good. You may be given breakfast in bed (albeit hospital food). You may have help from a nurse to wheel your baby over to you when he needs feeding, and get rid of rotten nappies and even be on hand if you’re not quite sure what to do next.
Once up and fed, your baby and yourself, you are told you are able to go home, great, get home to your own bed, own bathroom, but wait….no help on hand for your baby….panic!!!
So you’ve finally managed to strap your baby into his car seat without bashing or pinching him, and carried his seat down to the car, but how on earth does it fix into the car? You look at your other half, he looks back blankly, you finally find the instructions in the glove box and get the seat correctly fitted, phew…then baby starts to cry as he is now ready for another feed, panic!! Unplug car seat, feed baby in the car, start process all over again.
Finally you are on your way home but you daren’t drive over 5mph, what if baby gets knocked, and what if the bumps hurt your stitches…ouch! Panic!!
Ah you’re home, but everything feels different. Baby stuff everywhere, you get unpacked, but then what? You have no idea what to do next, oh hang on baby is crying, yes, you need to figure out why…panic !!
Why is the baby crying? He’s fed, winded, changed and slept. Finally you settle your baby, sit down, wonder what to do next and your baby wakes again.
You long for your baby to settle for the night so you too can get some well-deserved sleep in your own bed, but you get your baby settled in his Moses basket, and spend the rest of the night obsessively watching him sleep. Panic!!And it’s only day 1!''
I believe not everyone is emotionally ready for this first meeting..BioTexCom team usually do their best to guide new parents through all those tricky moments though.
It's hard for me to think about such situations. Even to think. We've been waiting for this miracle of life for years. We are still waiting!! I dream one day they'll place the baby in my arms and say - he's yours, be the best parent..I cannot imagine the thing which could stop me from not seeing my little one after the surrogate delives him. ( I cannot understand why I keep on saying HE - maybe this is going to be a boy?!) Anyway, I'm confused about the events you're mentioning. Hope those won't occur any more.
ReplyDeleteUseful watching. For those who have struggled with infertility and those with medical conditions that make pregnancy unsafe, surrogacy is often the answer to years of unsuccessful ttc and treatment shots. This is my opinion. I personally have nothing against the procedure. Gestational surrogacy often enables one or both parents to maintain a biological relationship with their child. One can use own egg & partner's sperm; donor egg & partner's sperm; donor's motochondria &own egg &partner's sperm (the newest method Biotexcom clinic is currently offering). I'm sure surrogacy creates relationships for the majority. As many IP become close with their surrogate, developing meaningful bonds that can last a lifetime. Everyone’s expectations are negotiated and signed prior to the embryo transfer. So everyone knows exactly what to expect during the process. IP are usually able to be involved in their surrogate’s pregnancy. They can attend all the key appointments. They can be present at all the important milestones. Surrogates have a proven track record of carrying healthy pregnancies. So it often makes surrogacy more likely to be successful for intended parents. Well, I believe these are just some rare events, and the majority of IP come to see their babies in time.
ReplyDeleteI willingly share our story. We were like thousands of couples struggling hard for their miracles. Infertility is a huge burden placed on a woman for the most part. Giving birth to a baby is our main role and if we fail to cope we suffer and grieve. This is quite normal. But here one decides what should be done further. Our story started from me, a 35 yo, married and desperate for a baby. Soon after we started ttc I got prego and felt like the happiest woman in this world. But this didn’t last for long. I lost my lo. This repeated again and again. Multiple miscarriages in 16 months and one ectopic seemed entire grief and a complete heartbreak. We knew we’d not cope without medical help. So we applied for help in Greece. We passed there 2 rounds ivf with oe with no success. At our next Biotexcom clinic we were told our eggs were not going to work, so we’d better look onto egg donation.. Furthermore they found the obstacles with my health preventing me from a successful pregnancy. I can’t describe or find just right words for that we felt. Too many disappointing news at once. But we found strength God knows from where, but we took it like our last chance for happiness. And went on, and were lucky to bfp from the very first shot. All this is the time, health, strength, finance matter. But one should never give up – only this way we succeed.
ReplyDeleteI understand your concerns. At my clinic I was told we'll have a babysitter from 9am to 6pm. But if things are ok we're planning to arrive a bit earlier the delivery date. So that we could be present from the very first day. I'm not sure will apply for a babysitter's help 'cause I wanna do things myself. I've been waiting for this so long. I won't miss the chance -lol.
