What fantastic news! That's amazing! 20 weeks is pretty far along. I know u've had miscarriages in the past but do you have a reason to be worried at this point? Try to enjoy the experience as much as possible and worry about stuff when stuff actually comes up.

AFM: I'm still trying. I did 3 rounds of clomid, all bfn. Now I'm on my 2nd round of Follistim injections and in the 2ww.

Thanks for the update and I hope you have a very happy and healthy 9 months

Hi, i dont have any particular reason to be worried, I just feel after 4 years trying and having 2 losses in those 4 years that this pregnancy is almost too good to be true. I always felt like i was just gonna be one of those women who never had a baby it always happened to someone else and not me, so im fretting now that if ilet myself be happy finally nature will be cruel and snatch this gift away from me, crazy i know but as you can appreciate you spend so long wanting and wishing dont you? Just taking one day at a time and being thankful thats all i can do. So your in the 2WW? Any signs/symptoms yet? Are you symptom spotting or trying to put it to the back of your mind? Is follistim for regulation of ovulation?

Oh, I know. Whenever I get my BFP, I'm sure I'll be super paranoid as well. So, your BFP was natural right?

The follistim injections are FSH injections, so they get the follies to grow and mature properly. No S&S yet but I'm only 4 dpIUI/O. But after the first round of the injections I learned that I can't trust my what my body is telling me in the 2ww when I'm doing injections. At times I could feel pressure in my uterus and twinges. A few days before O I expect those things but not a week or so before. Anywho, just trying to distract myself during this 2ww.

hi

yeah i conceived naturally, strange really because i'd been fretting all this time and posted this thread and then thought right its december festive season im going to put the baby idea aside until next year now and enjoy all the xmas parties have a drink let my hair down forget it and boom pregnant! They always say when your least expecting it dont they?How long you got to wait now in you 2ww?

I have about 6 more days until the official beta test on 4/16. I know I'll test before then, I'm just trying to make it as far into the 2ww as possible cause I wouldn't want to get a neg that's not real.

So how did you realize you were pg? Late AF? Symptoms? How many DPO did you get your BFP?

i went to my works xmas party and started to sip a glass of wine and nearly gagged! Which isnt like me! And i really struggled to drink all night nothing was tasting nice, then the next day i went to my cousins wedding and again none of the drinks were tasting nice and i couldnt keep my eyes open - i had to go and lay down in the hotel room in the afternoon for a couple of hours to get some rest. Those were the only symptoms, so AF wasnt due for three more days and as i wasnt symptom spotting i wasnt thinking to test, then the morning AF was due to arrive i got up went to the bathroom and nothing! so i went to my wardrobe pulled out a test and did it and it came up with the 2 blue lines instantly as soon as my pee had literally saturated the stick! Most amazing thing ever because it was so unexpected. Usually other months im symptom spotting and doing a couple of tests a day leading up to the AF day always being negative of course! Then i thought id be over the moon but all ive done is worry myself sick with nerves and what ifs since just want the next 4 months to fly by. So how long have you been trying altogether? This month April is exactly 4 years now for me. Just unfortunate to have one chemical and one mmc in those 4 years. Everyone always used to say - at least you know you can concieve! Buts it no better as whats the point in conceiving when you lose them..im just praying now this is my time and this one sticks.

We were trying 2 years in November, so I guess this makes 2.5 years now. Thankfully, I haven't had a miscarriage, but I think I may of had on chemical. The doctor passed it off as nothing, a fluke, but I think it was a chemical. It was the first round of clomid we were on 5 months ago. The beta test came up as a slight positive. I don't know what units they are but the test isn't suppose to pick it up until it gets to 5, and it was a 2. I think something tried to implant and wasn't successful. But since it was never anything, I was never really upset about it.

I would never say that you are out of the woods, but at around 20 weeks, I would say that the odds are in your favor. So 20 weeks, do you know the gender yet?

no my scan isnt for another 2 weeks yet when im 20 weeks but im not going to find out the gender i like the idea of not knowing until he/she is born! My mum and dad took 6 years to conceive me you know im an only child and they tried and tried had every test done nothing was found to be wrong, then just one month it happened and my mum was pregnant with me and then it never happened again they tried for about another 5 years after i was born. Its so strange isnt it the way that some people have to wait and wait to have a sucesseful pregnancy and some people get pregnant at the snap of a finger.
Do you drink grapefruit juice? I swore by it to ovulate.
