(Translated by Google) 🌱Sharing my journey from waiting to embracing—the road to having a child
April 2024: Starting with the basics: measuring basal body temperature to calculate ovulation, using ovulation test strips, undergoing fallopian tube imaging, hysteroscopy, and taking ovulation-inducing medication.
The constant tug-of-war between anticipation and disappointment was truly agonizing.
October 2024: We decided to begin IVF treatment.
Every 2-4 days, we had to return for blood tests, transvaginal ultrasounds, and adjustments to the ovulation-inducing medication dosage, until the trigger shot and egg retrieval.
At that time, I became afraid of blood tests and injections, and my body was exhausted and my immunity was low.
I often felt like a farmer, carefully “nurturing” the eggs in my uterus, hoping only for the day of harvest.
To avoid ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, we didn’t perform fresh embryo transfer and had to freeze the embryos first.
The marks of 12 injections remain on my belly, and also in my heart.
Bloating, dull pain, ascites, and a growing belly—the discomfort is something only those who have experienced it can truly understand.
Throughout the process, I doubted: Was this choice really right?
But someone told me, “Seeing your child makes it all worthwhile.” I chose to believe and not give up!
To confirm there were no genetic diseases, we did CGT gene testing and sent three blastocysts for PGS screening.
The result showed that one of them had an abnormality at the end of chromosome 8—that moment felt like a bolt from the blue ⚡️ But I could only tell myself: thankfully, it was detected.
January 2025: Entering the thawed blastocyst implantation period. Implantation was done after ovulation in a natural cycle. I went for checkups, blood tests, and transvaginal ultrasounds almost daily, just to time it perfectly.
On the day of implantation, I was incredibly nervous. The discomfort of the swollen sphincter, the dull pain in my lower abdomen, and the hormonal changes made my body more sensitive.
But unfortunately, the first attempt was unsuccessful.
February 2025: “Little Mochi” miscarried naturally at 6 weeks.
That period was very low, but the mothers around me told me:
“For the child, anything is possible.” Subsequent tests of my immune system showed no obvious abnormalities, but I still took quinine for three months to adjust.
December 2025: After a six-month break, I started again
Switching to a cycle of medication implantation to reduce the stress of frequent checkups.
But starting in the fifth week, I experienced recurring bleeding, constantly running between the emergency room and outpatient clinic.
Every day was filled with fear—fear that my “little darling” might leave again.
Those days were truly exhausting, both physically and mentally.
March 21, 2026: I graduated! 🎊 Having gone through this journey, I realize how difficult every bit of perseverance is. 🙏
Thank you to Dr. Huang Jianrong and the medical team who helped me along the way,
for giving me so much support and strength when I lacked confidence and felt down.

💖A message for those of you who are working hard:
If you are also on the path to having a child—I really want to say to you:
You’ve worked hard!
Please don’t give up, and don’t blame yourself.
You’ve worked so hard and been so brave.
Take good care of yourself.
Your day will surely come.
Good news is coming! 🌷
I sincerely thank Dr. Huang Jianrong and the entire medical team, as well as Chan Yi, who was in charge of the ultrasound examination, for providing professional care.
During my most vulnerable and uncertain time, your meticulous care and words of encouragement became a vital force for me to persevere. 💪🏻
🌱分享我從等待到擁抱的旅程—求子之路
2024/4
從最基本的開始：量基礎體溫算排卵日、用排卵試紙、做輸卵管攝影、子宮鏡檢查、吃排卵藥。
在一次次期待與失落中來回拉扯，那段時間，真的很煎熬。
2024/10
我們決定踏入試管療程
2–4天就要回診抽血、照陰超、調整排卵針劑量，直到打破卵針、取卵。
那時候的我，開始害怕抽血與打針，身體疲累、免疫力下降。
常覺得自己像個農夫，小心翼翼地在子宮裡「養」卵子，只希望能迎來收成的那一天。
為了避免卵巢過度刺激症候群，沒有進行鮮胚植入，只能先冷凍胚胎。
12針的痕跡，留在肚皮上，也留在心裡。
腹脹、悶痛、腹水，肚子變大，那些身體的不適，只有經歷過的人才懂。
過程中也曾懷疑：這樣的選擇，真的對嗎？
但有人告訴我：「看到自己的孩子，一切都值得。」我選擇相信且不放棄！
為了確認沒有遺傳疾病，我們做了CGT基因檢測，也將三顆囊胚送去PGS篩檢。
結果其中一顆在第八對染色體末端異常——那一刻真的像晴天霹靂⚡️
但也只能告訴自己：還好有篩檢出來。
2025/1
進入解凍囊胚植入期
自然週期排卵後植入，幾乎天天回診、抽血、照陰超，只為抓準最好的時機。
植入當天，真的很緊張
鴨嘴撐開的不適、下腹悶痛，加上荷爾蒙影響讓身體更敏感。
但很遺憾，第一次沒有成功。
2025/2，「小麻糬」在6週時自然流產。
那段時間很低潮，但身邊的媽媽們告訴我：
「為了孩子，什麼都可以。」
後續檢查免疫系統，雖然沒有明顯異常，仍服用奎寧調整三個月。
2025/12
休息半年後，我重新出發
改為藥物週期植入，減少頻繁回診的壓力。
但第5週開始反覆出血，急診、門診來回奔波。
每一天都在害怕——
害怕「小乖乖」會不會又離開。
那段日子，真的身心俱疲。
2026/3/21
我畢業了🎊
走過這段路，才知道，每一份堅持都不容易🙏
謝謝一路上幫助我的黃建榮醫師與醫療團隊，
在我沒信心、低落的時候，給了我很多支持與力量。
⸻
💖想對正在努力的你們說
如果你現在也在求子的路上——真的想跟你說一聲：
辛苦了❗️
請不要放棄，也不要責怪自己。
你已經很努力，也很勇敢了。
好好照顧自己
屬於你的那一天
好孕一定會到來 🌷
由衷感謝黃建榮院長與整個醫療團隊，以及負責超音波檢查的蟬伊，提供專業的照護。
在我最脆弱、最沒有信心的時候，你們的細心照顧與一句句鼓勵，成為我撐下去的重要力量💪🏻。
