Well that's a bummer. The link works for me, so I don't know what is happening. Computer stuff, I suppose. The website is Oxford Academic and the article is WDialysis and pregnancy: no longer the impossible by Kate Bramhamell, Maybe you can google it.

I heard you have to take Dialysis for six days a week and dialysis is double of what you do, because you have to clean the blood of the baby. It’s hard. I’ve never been through it, but heard the doctor talk to a young lady at dialysis.

Not what you're looking for?
