Anyone doing FET in October?

[notoptimistic]

Hey girls - any updates? Bumski - have you felt any flutters yet?

 

[bumski]

Hi hun, yeah on the odd occasion I can feel baby move, usually at night when I'm lying still, it's lovely but still so light they could be easily missed.
Iv rearranged my gender scan to today so I will find out if we are having a little boy or little girl in exactly two hours!!!!
This is so surreal! I never really believed we would get to do this, I can't explain my excitement!
I will update when I'm back x

How are you feeling not, has your bump started growing yet? X

 

[diliapickle]

Bumski so excited for you!

Hope everyone else is doing well!

bum - That's awesome that you've felt some movement! I can't wait to feel my baby move - I don't think I have yet. I know it would be very subtle at this point but any odd sensations I've felt so far I've thought might be gas and digestive issues. That's great that you get to find out the baby's gender today!! I totally understand when you say you never thought you'd get to this point - I still feel like I might wake up one day and discover that this was all a dream. My next appointment is on the 31st with by obgyn but no scan. I am hoping he will listen for a heartbeat. I think at that appointment I will be told when to schedule the anatomy scan. I think I remember them saying they do it at 18 weeks. I am 14 weeks and 5 days today. I'm definitely starting to feel better - I haven't vomitted in at least a week although I do still experience nausea at varying levels every day. My bump is growing a little and is definitely noticeable when I wear certain clothes. Are you in maternity clothes yet?

dilia - when's your next scan??

 

[diliapickle]

Not - That is great that you are feeling better! I look forward to when I am feeling better! Though part of me likes it because it reassures me! Though sounds like you have a little bump which is awesome!!

My next scan is tomorrow! It will be my last one with the specialist and then I transfer to the OB!

Hi everyone, just a quick update as we have family round!
We are 100% having a little girl!!!!! Omg iv never felt so happy! The baby is no longer 'it' but our baby girl!! I just can't believe how this feels, so so worth having a private scan, it was amazing, we saw everything from her little face to her fingers and toes! I'm so in love! Xxx

 

[diliapickle]

AWW so happy for you bumski!! Go team pink!

 

[notoptimistic]

Congrats bumski! That's wonderful news! Was it a 3d ultrasound?

 

[Cynthia86]

Congrats Bumski!!!

 

[MoBaby]

congrats bumski

 

[notoptimistic]

yay for 16 weeks Cynthia - your ticker says you should be feeling kicks soon if you haven't already - have you??

 

[Cynthia86]

TY Not! I can't believe I'm 16 weeks already! I have been feeling little flutters here and there. Almost feels like a goldfish swimming around in there! Can't wait until they actually turn into little kicks so DH can feel babies moving as well. I had an appointment yesterday and the twins are doing great. I go back on the 8th for the official anatomy scan. Can't wait to see if the tech was right about them both being boys. I'm really anxious to start shopping for them!

How have you been? Any flutters or kicks for you yet? Will you be finding out the gender soon?

How is everyone else doing?

Have you started shopping for your little girl yet Bumski?

 

[bumski]

Kicks still feel the same really, just the odd flutter here and there but nothing I would call obvious yet
Iv been so tempted to start buying for her but I want to try and wait until it's confirmed as you hear so many stories about them getting it wrong, I hope not though as iv started planning for a girl lol
Not, when I had the scan it was a 2d but she flicked onto 4d for us but unfortunately baby had her face right up to the placenta so we couldn't see her, last time she covered her face with her arms, this baby is camera shy which is not good as I'm a baby portrait photographer, she better get over it lol
How's everyone feeling? X

 

[diliapickle]

Cynthia - aww so exciting your little goldfish! Yay for being able to find out the sex for sure soon! Then you can go on a shopping spree!

Bumski - When is your next appointment to get confirmation on your girl? Bummer she is camera shy but hopefully she gets over that before she is born! haha

Not - hope you are doing well!

I am finally in the double digits and 10 weeks! And finally graduated from the FS! So have my first OB appointment on the 6th and then the nuchal testing on the 12th cuz my FS told me I needed to go get it. I am a bit nervous about it just cuz I don't know what to expect! I dont care about results (well i do but won't change anything) but it just seems nerve wracking!

 

[bumski]

It feels great to get into double figures doesn't it, another milestone
My next scan is at the end of feb now when I will be 21 weeks feels like forever because iv had scans almost every week so far, iv bought a couple of little things, i.e booties, bibs etc but I'm really trying hard not to too much until towards summer as the clothes etc will change, it's mainly winter stuff at the min.
How are you feeling dilia? Is your little one treating you well? X

 

[diliapickle]

Oh man not until 21 weeks! That does feel like forever! Hopefully the time goes by quickly though!

I am feeling alright. Last week it seemed like symptoms were disappearing and I was getting some energy but this week it has all come back with a vengeance! So tired and gotten sick a few times. Oh well totally worth it!

Hi ladies. I am exactly 16 weeks today and had my ob appointment yesterday. I got to hear the heartbeat for the first time! He said it was somewhere in the 150's - 160's. I guess they don't really care to be exact as long as it seems to be beating regularly.

I too have felt some movement but, like bumski said, nothing really obvious. I think over the next couple of weeks the movements should become more pronounced.

Cynthia - Next Friday is the big day?!? That's so awesome. I just scheduled my anatomy scan for the 15th - so exactly one week after you. I think mine is a girl but my husband is thinking boy. I always thought I'd prefer a boy (as werid as that may sound), but I will be so happy to just see that the baby is going to be healthy.

bumski: That stinks that you have to wait so long for the next scan but at least the movements will pick up before then so you will get the reassurance that things are going ok! I haven't bought one thing for the baby yet. I think I want to just wait until after the anatomy scan. I should probably start reading up on what products to get.

dilia- the 12 week scan is awesome! It took about 20 minutes I think. They do some measurements, in particular they look at the nuchal fold which is the translucent area at the back of the baby's neck - they measure that. A smaller measurement usually corresponds to a smaller risk of down syndrome and some other chromosomal disorders but not necessarily. They also take blood and the combination of the blood tests and measurements will help them determine the baby's risks.

 

[diliapickle]

Not - yay for hearing the heartbeat! So exciting! And only two weeks till your anatomy scan yay! thanks for reassurance on 12 week scan!

 

[Mommyagain]

Reading this thread has given me hope! I go today for an u/s and all to see if my FET is still on for Friday. I have had a good feeling about this cycle so I am praying I am right. If all is good I will be having two 5 day embryos transferred. They all have good grading's. Oh, I hope I become an FET success story too!!!!

 

[bumski]

Lots of luck to you mommyagain! You will have to let us know how it goes, fx crossed for you
