    Hello ladies...

    I was active for a while in IL and then disappeared coz i conceived in may. To brief about me, I have a son who is 2 yrs old and he has down syndrome... I was devasted :bowdown when my son was born and hated god for punishing me n my child so much.. later i decided to have one more child to make me feel better and also my downs son needs a sibling.

    Thats when my battle started... I had been trying to conceive since 2010 and finally i succeeded only this april may.... I tried my BEST every month but always seeing a BFN.... finally i met dr roopa k.s and she put me on clomid 200 mg... and in my 2nd round i succeeded...

    But what i felt really worked is, I used preseed along with clomid medication. During my 1st round of clomid i did not use preseed. But during my 2nd round i used preseed and also kept my legs up in air for 10 mins after sex ( advised my doc) . I really dont know what did the magic. whether it was the clomid or the preseed or the legs up.. or even the combination of all these together also could have worked.

    Since i have a previous child with down syndrome, I had my amniocentesis scheduled yesterday... it just got over yesterday ... it was a bit painful but definitely very very managable...it is not at all scary.. i am awaiting my results... it takes upto three weeks for the result to come... I need all your prayers for a good result...

    My advice to all ladies who are trying to conceive...

    1. Pls try preseed or conceive plus atleast once... I definitely feel it is worth the try... you can buy one for yourself in ebay.in.

    2. Please use a digital ovulation kit to track your ovulation. They are the perfect one's.. charting BBT will definitely not be right. I used Clearblue digital ovulation kit. (bought it from ebay ).

    3. if you are seeing an fertility specialist in bangalore dr. rupa is good... she does not fleece money and very patient.. infact i was hurrying her for an iui but she said lets try clomid for 3 or 4 cycles atleast.

    4. once you conceive, pls go to a GOOOOOD gynec.... my suggestion is Dr. Padmini Issac. She comes to cloud nine hospital, bangalore.

    5. This is for ALL BANGALOREANS ..... PLS HAVE ALL YOUR SCANS DONE ONLY IN SRINIVASA ULTRASOUND SCAN CENTRE located in shankarapuram. Dr Ramamurthy is the best in india... If you have to undergo any procedure like amnio, he is THE BEST in india... trust me on this... My amnio was just a 10 second process with him.. check out all other places, they will take a minimum of half an hour... and if he has done your scans then u can be rest assured that your baby is absolutely fine. I have seen ladies from chennai, pondicherry and other cities coming all the way to bangalore to get done scan or any procedures like amniocentesis from him.

    But getting an appointment from him is very difficult. He scans only 40 ppl per day... and you need to get token before 7 a.m in the morning for that day's scan. i used to go at 5 a.m and get the token and wait till 9 a.m and see Dr ramamurthy... if you go after 6.30 or 7 for token its a waste coz ppl start the queue right from 4.30 or 5 a.m ....

    It may seem really stupid to do all this but if u think u want the best do ought to do this....

    If you guys have any doubt or information about these doctors i met, pls mail me at sivakumar.harini@gmail.com and i shall be glad to help u.

    Cheers

    harini

    Dear Harini...Your mail was very informative.
    I share your emotions..I too have a 16 yr old Down syndrome son...Felt very devastated & depressed with the question "why me?" those days...afterwards, we decided to have a next child, had Aminiocentesis done and have a brilliant son thereafter...My prayers and best wishes to have a lovely kid...All the best...
