Re: old age mother frozen embryo pregnant fetus and their 11 year old son "same age"
thawing
embryo thawing only 20 minutes
if there is no "total two child" policy, even Ms. Zhu himself forgot the 11 "ice baby" in the hospital. She has not paid the savings for 105 months in a row. Last August, she and her husband came to the Third Hospital of Guangyi, and asked them carefully about their "ice babies". Fortunately, they were all still there. So they immediately paid 11 thousand yuan for embryo preservation. At the beginning of this year, they came to the hospital again to awaken these "ice babies".
Du Hongzi, deputy director of the laboratory of reproductive medicine, Guangzhou Medical Third Hospital, said that the process of waking the baby is not breathtaking. The thawing of the embryo is only 20 minutes. However, during the freezing and thawing process of the embryo, the rate of temperature rise and decline has a significant effect on the embryo, because the water in the cell is easily formed in the temperature range of -30 C ~-60 C. Therefore, avoiding the formation and recrystallization of large ice crystals is the key step in embryo cryopreservation. Moreover, the preparatory process will take half a month to 1 months. Because the embryo is not ready to thaw at any time, the time for the thawing of the embryo must be determined by the doctor according to the ovulation of the woman and the endometrium, and the embryo needs to be synchronized with the endometrium. Specifically including the following six steps:
1. mother for a physical examination;
2. father and mother of both sides to set up a thawing file;
3. registered, see the doctor;
4., according to the doctor's presentation, monitoring ovulation (including blood extraction, B ultrasound); After the thickness is determined by the doctor, the embryo transfer date is
6., and the embryo transfer is scheduled for 14 days.
pregnancy
to a stable
in March this year, after full preparation, the doctor "awaken" to the 7 embryos of 11 embryos frozen by Ms Zhu. The joy is that there are 3 embryos "waking up".
, then, after testing Ms Zhu's ovulation cycle, doctors chose to transplant these three embryos into Zhu's uterus. 14 days later, Ms. Zhu carried out a pregnancy test. She was surprised to find that she was pregnant. 14 days later, B ultrasound showed that three fetuses were alive, which means that she had 3 babies at the same time.
of course, according to her physical condition, not to mention triplets, twins, the risk of pregnancy is quite high. Moreover, Ms. Zhu herself originally wanted to catch up with another baby. So when she was about 11 weeks pregnant, she came to the prenatal diagnosis department, and underwent the fetal reduction operation, reducing the number of fetuses to 1.
survival of the fittest. As a result, the healthiest and best developed fetus remained. That's the lucky "ice baby". Of course, the adventures of this "ice baby" have not yet ended. TA will have a long pregnancy with her mother before she can come to the world smoothly.
