Anyone doing FET/IVF in Jan 2013 till everyone's BFP (Everyone Welcome)

Sekky congrats for a good retrieval! 18 eggs! :)

Turkey, that's a good rise, looks like you're all set - for now! You'll get all sorts of anxieties throughout the pregnancy...

Sandy, stay positive. This thread is on a roll, babydust storm is still active!

Ali, Lotus, I hear ya about the colonoscopy. I had it twice before and the prep always sucks. Can't remember the number of times I've puked from drinking that vile liquid the night before!
 
Turkey, congrats! That is a great rise.

Sekky, 18 is an awesome start! We had 18 and 10 fertilized. We ended up with twins and 3 frosties!!!

AFM, I have my OB consult today. I get to see the babies again!
 
WOW.. so much is happening here!!!


Sandy - PMA and hoping for good news for you on Monday! :thumbup:

Sekky - YAY! 18 eggs is great! Can't wait to hear how many were mature and how many fertilized, are you doing ICSI?

Turkey - great rise, you should be very happy with that increase!! Can't wait to hear about your US on Tues.. you are right it is early, but they should be able to see the gestational sac, and that might be it, but that is something! At least you'll know if there are 1 or 2 sacs in there!!! Course you could still have identical twins if there is only 1. :haha:

Anxious, Lotus, I'm amazed at how many of us have intestinal issues! WOW! It makes you wonder if our digestive system has anything to do with our reproductive system? :wacko: I know they aren't connected, but maybe they are related in some way? I mean maybe we don't absorb food the same way other people do and that sets off our hormones to be imbalanced which then causes infertility? I'm grasping at straws here, but who knows? I recently read an article that said that the digestive enzymes in skinny people are different than those in obese people, and they are wondering if transplanting the skinny digestive enzymes into obese people would help them lose weight? :haha: So stranger things have happened!

AFM - today is AF day, but while I have all the symptoms she hasn't arrived yet :cry: It is only 11am here so I have time, but if she doesn't show it is going to cause some serious mess for me with getting day 3 bloods and so on. The :witch: is always so inconvenient! :grr:
 
Yay Sekky! That's awesome! Looking forward to your fert report.

Sandy: there's no reason to think it wasn't successful. Patience, my dear :)
Or POAS?
 
Thanks ladies. I can't wait for the fert report either.

Ali the embryologist decides with the quality of sperm and mature viable eggs. I will know what they did tomorrow. We signed the consent for both IVF and ICSI.
 
Amazing number sekky!!!!!!


Had my nt scan today. Babies are both great! :)

Congrats Blue!!! I have a scan in 2 hours... cant wait :) Not an NT scan so I am not really sure what they are doing! It with my delivery doc and the appts 2 freaking hours.
 
Blue, Brandy, I had my scan this morning too. Both babies are doing fabulous. She also told me my uterus is the size of someone at least 18 weeks! But with two that normal. They also were pretty confident in the gender of one. Until I get the official results on both we are staying team yellow!
 
Sekky - congrats!! 18 eggs is amazing!!

Blue and Mells - great news about your scans!

Ali - I hope Af shows up today. I know you're ready to get this show on the road.
 
Great news Mells and blue

Hope your scan went well brandy.

Afm getting sharp cramp like pains in my right side so not sure what to make of it. DH keeps telling my to think positive but can't help thinking I've been here before 3 times already and never got that positive!!!!! Xx
 
Sandy: I had cramps every day with BFP, so it's probably not a sign either way. Plus, your body is recovering from the stims.
 
Blue and Mells wtg with the scans :)

Mells- Doctor said I am measuring at 16 weeks... I said no wonder none of my freaking pants fit!

Has anyone gained weight yet? My doctor was slightly concerned that I was 12 weeks and havent gained anything. I eat like a horse but I have always been a very healthy eater.


AFM- Ultrasound went very well... Both babies are measuring 12w6d HB was 161 and 162. The tech was able to get good measurements but not food facial pics of Baby A so I am just posting a pic of baby B :)

brandy I know I only have 1 but I havent gained anything yet either. My weight fluctutes 1-3 lbs but I still weigh less than I did on day of transfer (by 3-4 lbs)..my ob has only seen me once so he doesnt know that.. I read you should gain 1-4 lbs in first tri and many dont gain any.

I am excited for tomorrow. Why?? Its my LAST day of crinone!!! Then I start taking oral progesterone on Saturday but I am soooo thrilled!! YAY!! :)

Thanks that makes me feel better :) I surely am not going on some crazy eating spree or anything so they can forget that lol.

Congrats on the crinone! I have 3 more days of it :(
 
Congrats ladies on the scans!!!amazing:)!

Mo-try not to worry much with weight I lost 15 but recently have gained it back. Actually 8 pounds in 2weeks. As long as baby is growing that's all they care about
 
Great news everyone!! Keep it coming!

I have some interesting news.. I may have a IF (intended father) as opposed to using DS. I'm interested in pursuing this as I think it would be better in the long run for the child(ren) to have a father. We've been trying to sort out our feelings for each other, and how this might all work for a few months. I always do things ass backwards! Have a baby through IVF then sort out the relationship after! LOL! We've known each other for over 20 years and have dated on and off for the last 7. There is one complicating factor, he's currently in Canada, and I'm in the US. We need to get his tests done, SA, chromosome and infectious disease panel. Does anyone know how this is covered in Ontario? Would these tests be covered by OHIP?

I also got a promotion at work today, kinda sorta, still not sure what it all means but hopefully tomorrow I'll get more details.

Unfortunately AF did not show! UGH! I think I saw a hint of spotting so maybe she'll arrive fashionably late tomorrow!
