The procedure is expensive

I remember she once put a number on it but I’ve forgotten.

She (finally) did a regular instagram post about it.

Here I am over a week ago at my doctors office getting an orientation/lesson on how to inject myself with growth hormones. One of the first major steps for egg retrieval. I’ve been stewing over the idea of freezing my eggs for a couple of years now, and decided to move forward with the process only just recently. I did my research on facilities and then it all boiled down to these deciding factors; I want options. I’m buying time. I’m unsure and scared and hopeful. I have the best life partner a person can ask for and I know I want to one day raise a child with Bryan. I’m just unsure when that will happen. And I realized that’s ok. It’s ok to be unsure when the time is right. And a lot of people have told me that “There is no right time. Just do it! What are you waiting for?! It’s the best thing to have ever happened to us!!” And I believe it all but I’m going at the pace that’s right for me because I’m not ready just yet. I’ve been documenting my journey to freezing my eggs because I too have a ton of questions about this process. How you feel on the day to day basis, the overall process and which injections suck major balls. Everyone is different and everyone’s process will be different but I hope that sharing my journey will help answer some of those questions. More to come on the blog but in the meantime if you have any questions please leave below! Huge thank you to my doctor @drshahinghadir at @scrcivf and the amazing team Ari and Angela as well as the other kind nurses at this center who have taken such good of me. I didn’t realize how draining the process would be and they have all been so patient as I squirmed getting my blood drawn or having a probe up my vagina to measure the growth of my eggs (bi weekly), I’m glad to have gotten to know you on such a personal level 😂.

In the last 24hrs she posted on insta stories what her injectionproducts look like.

Ahh, thank you.. Even tho I wish thta most women shouldn't have bio tick-tock when men don't need to worry since I know that feeling bec the more I'm getting older since I would love to have a family of my own, but need a guy to do that or need $$$ for sperm donated bec everything complicate and all that.. But I'm glad that she spoke up about it since I'm sure other can relate to that situation..

Fertility in women is always a complicated topic, I like that she's very vocal about why she is doing this. Is an expensive procedure, not all people can afford it but there is also a lot of prejudice about postponing child bearing or even not having kids, that even if Jamie's reasons are different to other's she can use her voice to educate.

**stlavin95** · 03-25-2019, 08:20 PM

She certainly can, which is good to see
