It was one year ago we were told it was very unlikely you will ever have anymore children. I went in for a d&c very sad. I wanted one more baby. Yet cancer was going to rob us yet again. The doctors felt I couldn’t have anymore kids because of the cancer. I did some research and women with Medullary Thyroid Cancer struggle to stay pregnant, but men don’t have any issues having children. For women our entire endocrine system is in havoc.
When I went in for the d&c I had wished we could do it the day before. October 10 is Brett Favre birthday and I hate doing sad things on birthdays lol. Well now a year later I feel this brought me luck. Five weeks after my d&c I got a positive pregnancy test. A year later I have a sweet two month old baby boy!
I was told by numerous doctors you probably can continue to get pregnant but you won’t stay pregnant. The fact you have G is a miracle. You and your husband need to consider what type of birth control to use and do something permanent. This was so hard to hear at 36 years old. I was so depressed for a good two weeks. I probably was struggling because my hormones were a mess plus hard news.
My advice is not to go against what the doctors tell you to do, but it is lol If I had given up having a family because of what doctors told me over the years I wouldn’t have George or Cash. It took A LOT of hope over 8 years to not give up. Some days it was just a spark of hope and other days I could imagine holding a baby, chasing a toddler etc.
Im so thankful for my sweet little miracle boys!
