[Blue12]

That's great news. Yes all of those tests are covered by Ohip. The only thing is a reg dr may not be able to order all those and may need a clinic to order those types of tests.

And good for you Hun. There is no right or wrong way of going about this xxxxxx

 

[Sandy83]

How exciting Ali loads going on for you hope everything works out you definitely deserve it xx

 

[sekky]

Morning ladies.

Brandy and Mells congrats on great scan results.

Ali wish AF shows up for you ASAP. Congrats on the promotion at work, also hope everything goes smoothly with the IF. All the best.

Got the the call this morning. Out of the 18, 8 were matured/treatedable and out of the 8, 5 fertilized. So I will get another call on Sunday to know if we are going day 5. Am happy right now and praying they just keep growing.

That's great news sekky. Grow embryos grow xx

Grow embryos grow!!!

 

[MoBaby]

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

I the least worried about gaining weight lol. Probably too worried about gaining weight. Im hoping to gain no more than 25 lbs. Brandy was concerned 8 lbs in 2 weeks? Wow! But you did lose a good amount in the beginning. And you are carrying 2.

Great news Sekky!!!!! So happy for you!

 

[Mells54]

Ali, congrats on the promotion and the IF. I agree there is no "right" way to do things!

Sekky, this are good numbers!

Sandy PMA!!!!!

Brandy, Mo I did not gain anything in the first trimester. I fluctuated up and down especially after stopping the progesterone and estrogen. But the last week or so I'm gaining and my belly is growing. I think it is all normal.

Hi to all the ladies!!!!

 

[everhopeful]

Great news Sekky - Grow embies grow!!!

 

[alicatt]

Thanks everyone! I think it will make this IVF a little more interesting. Hopefully his tests come out OK and we can move forward, if not we may end up having to do DS, but we'll try this route first. Thanks Blue for the info about OHIP, I figured they would cover the testing, but its nice to know for sure.

Mells, Brandy, Sweet, Mo - I don't think there is any true formula as to how women gain during a pregnancy. We all will, I think its a function of what we weighed before getting pregnant, how sick we are during the pregnancy and how healthy we eat during the pregnancy, oh and the size of the baby or babies growing in there. I wouldn't stress about it, just make sure that you feel good and the baby is healthy.

Sekky - grow embies grow! 5 is a great number

AFM - still no AF, but the spotting is coming, I'm sure by the end of today or tomorrow she'll be here, so now it looks like everything will be pushed back a few days. I'm OK with that, but it means we won't be having a Halloween ER!

 

[Turkey16]

So interested in, and excited about, this most recent turn of events Ali...good for you!!! Hope AF gets her butt here STAT!

Thanks Turkey!!!

If I haven't said it recently, you gals are the bomb! I can't tell you how helpful and supportive you all have been to me, and I just love that we are all here to get through this difficult and scary journey together. I can tell you that I am not sure I would have survived this past year without you and BnB in general!

 

[Em260]

Sekky - yay the fabulous five!!

Ali - wow huge turn of events! That is very exciting and fingers crossed all of his testing goes well.

Brandy - congrats on your scan!

 

[FirstTry]

Mells: if they're pretty sure on one, then I'll bet it's a boy!

Ali: what an exciting turn of events! A friend of mine had a guy like that, friends for 15 years, occasional flirtation/dating. They just recently reconnected, long-distance, the passion grew, and they have decided to get married! So, it can happen. But biological dad or not, he could still be daddy, if it works out between you two. Good luck!!!

Weight gain: the important thing is that baby(ies) is growing and you are getting calcium, iron, and protein. If not, the baby will take it from you and leave you with too little. Personally, I gained 18 lbs by week 18, which was a bit faster than they wanted, but have now lost 2 of those in the past 4 weeks. I asked the doctor if I should be concerned with the weight loss and she said not at all.

And GROW EMBIES GROW!!!

 

[Sweetness_87]

Hey ladies will get caught up later. I feel like crap stuffy nose with runny nose at same time hard to breath eyes feel like they are going to pop out of my head. Then today my lower back as been hurting constantly. Very achy.

Will be watching on here. Hopefully I can Make it to work tom

Ali- hopefully AF woll be here by tomorrow

Sekky- that's awesome!! I bet the five will make it to day 5

 

[MoBaby]

Feel better sweet colds suck and more so being preggo cuz you can't take anything!

I bought the sonoline b... Heard baby's heartbeat tonight with DH! So awesome!!

 

[Mells54]

Sweet, feel better.

 

[sekky]

Hey ladies. Hope everyone is having a restful weekend

Sandy how are you holding up? Not long till OTD Hun

Mo yay for Doppler. One more thing to keep you busy haha

Sweetness sorry about your cold. Hope you feel better soon

Expecting the clinic to call tomorrow and say we are going day 5 not just because I want to transfer blasts but I think my body need more time to recover. Am suffering a really bad bloat (can hardly stand straight), some pulling down my right abdomen and I feel some pressure in my throat when drinking or eating anything.

 

[L4hope]

Lots of good things going on girls!

Ali you are def keeping it interesting, but in a good way!!

Sandy, fingers crossed the cramping is a good sign. It truly can go both ways so let's believe its going to show up positive your little embabies are burrowing in for the long haul!

Sekky hoping you get good news on your fab 5 making it to day 5 for transfer!

All the preggos, Mo, sweet, first, brandy, Mells, Em sounds like everyone is doing well and having great ultrasounds. So happy for you girls!!

 

[FirstTry]

How are you and baby, L4?

Mo: that's a strong bean, to be able to hear the hb on the home Doppler so early! Did it take you long to find it? When I finally found mine (it took like 2-3 weeks of trying every day), it was really low down near the pelvic bone.

Sekky: have you talked to your doctor about OHSS? I think drinking gatorade is one of the things that's supposed to help. Feel better!

Sweet: me too. I've had a cold all week: sore throat, runny nose, sneezing. It's taking longer than normal to recover. Oh, and my foot's been having sharp pains in one spot. The OB thinks it might be broken!? If it's not better in another week, I'll have an x-ray. Can you imagine a sniffly, sore throat, pregnant lady with a cast on her foot?

My poor DH wants some lovin, but I'm not in any kind of shape
