“Dr.Orders”…..


It was two nights ago Kev and I were both on edge with EVERYTHING going on in our daily lives. We decided to email our team to inquire where we are at in regards to our next cycle (implantation). As paranoid as we both are in regards to..well surrogacy, we immediately had our email bounce back from Dr.Samit address. Of course we freaked out and immediately emailed Lexi and Anjani. They both reassured us that “the little glitch in our doctor’s email address is being worked on. And to please not be worried for everything is good and striving. Please don’t worry:.

Okay, well… understand this….in the past two and a half years we have been meeting with, interviewing and observing many agencies (middle man in between us and India) that exist here in the United States. Come to learn, one of the few we were considering turned out to be not so good. Having said that much, of course we are both on the defense when something of the sort comes about. Over paranoid, over anxious, yes I will say so. Please understand we are taking our future and putting it in the hands of experts half way around the world.

To much of our dismay we received an email that reassured us and pushed us into our faith once more from Dr.Samit.
I believe my email not working for a day gave you some anxious moments. I understand how this process has been emotionally as well as physically draining for you two, however as your Doctor I would like to give you a suggestion/advice-try to be as calm as possible and as positive as possible about this journey to parenthood. It is very important that you have full faith and trust on us during this journey.  We are here to help you in every possible way. We will interact with you regularly; we will answer all of your queries. Sometimes there might be a little delay because of logistics, but we will not leave you alone on this journey.  We are with you every step of the way.

The grading of the embryos can sometimes change post thawing. However we will transfer a mix of Grade A and B quality embryos (best for implantation).
All surrogate’s are given optimal Luteal phase support in the form of progesterone Injections 100 mg/daily and Vaginal pessaries/suppositories,200 mg/daily.
We are a clinic that specializes solely in fertility care and treatments. We are up to date with all happenings in the field of infertility all across the globe and if our seniors/team feel the need to incorporate any latest state of the art developments to improve pregnancy and live take home baby rates, it is done immediately.
Please take my email in the right sense and remember we will and are doing everything possible to help you both become parents in the shortest amount of time.
The surrogate stops birth control pills today.  She will get her menses by weekend. So we are looking at an embryo transfer between 24th to 28th of march.

We shall update you again”.

That was it. That was all we needed to hear from our doctor. I will say that I have every once of faith and belief in KIC.  My worries..my apprehension was put to rest when our doctor, Dr. Samit reassured us that he and his team are and will continue to do everything they can to provide us with a child(ren ).
Need I say more?? Thank you again to Dr.Samit and his team for reassuring us to stay positive, believe and keep faith. I will say, this much. Kevin and I are 100% thankful that we choose KIC for our future.

Until next…
