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

Lotus- How's your adjustment to VA? A bit different than Hawaii?

Oh yes, it is different. I'm freezing now. Thankfully I have a cozy fireplace in the family room and a space heater in the bathroom. There are definitely perks, though. It's nice to be able to drive further than an hour away and not in a loop. We're trying to plan some short road trips and try a new cuisine each week. Most restaurants in Hawaii are Asian influenced, so we find ourselves still looking for Asian food here all the time. We really need to branch out. We miss Hawaii, but have met some great people so that helps.

I'm sorry Ali how much does embryo donor cost in your area?

Brandy that is great news!! Do the Drs think your little ones will be preemies?

I'm trying to decide when I want to go for another FET!! I still have to meet with my OB also and make a plan because of preterm labor. I really hope I can make it further this time and avoid the NICU. Things were terrifying with my little girl and even though she was 35 weeks, she had all the drs and nurses scared. I am thinking progesterone shots and steroid shots. I hope my OB has some positive news!!

We should be able to make it to 38 weeks IF my cerclage stitching holds. Right now were taking it 2 weeks at a time I really need to get to a more viable stage first then we will review. But since there is no sign of it giving at this point the doctors are very optimistic. The current plan is to remove the stitching at 34 weeks (feb 18th) and then let nature take its course. So the babies could be as early as 6 weeks if it stays on track.

I'm missing everybody!!! What's new with y'all?

I have an ultrasound this afternoon, first one in a month!!! Super excited, but nervous of course. I have been sooooo tired, that all I really have energy is for quick one-liners, but I'm lurking and thinking of you all daily!! 14 weeks today, so hopefully I'll be getting some of my energy back one of these days!

Hope everybody has a great day!!! xo

[MoBaby]

Congrats Mel!! I'm (impatiently) waiting for dec 14th.. That's my vday! My scan is in a hour!! Baby is moving all around in there so must be good!!

 

[MoBaby]

Scan went great. Baby measuring good and all looked fine. Cervical length 3.4cm no signs of ptl. Yay! No pic b/c baby wasn't cooperative but oh well I go in every 2 weeks now b/c of the tightening I've been having. Dr said I'll feel it more than most due to my uterus being smaller and being thin. But he did say no more than 8 hrs working so that means no more call until baby comes!! Yay! He said he could give me a note but I'll wait until jan b/c I'm done for this year.

 

[Mells54]

Glad everything went well Mo!!!
