Forums New posts
Congratulations Sadie, fantastic news, although like you Ferne I will be more than happy with one, my daughter was more than enough for me at the time too, lol x
 
Thanks all!

Yes, we cheated! :wohoo: Clomid, Ovidrel trigger shot, and an IUI to speed things along because OH lives in Italy and I'm in NY. I was never ovulating when we were together and so we planned his visit last month on purpose! (except 2x during the summer, but no ovidrel shot and those tries were not successful)
 
Wow, what a story Sadie. 2x's H&H9!!! :) :thumbup:
:wave: HStein!

Thank you, feeling fabulous! Gonna be a very high-risk pregnancy later on, so I'm enjoying the early weeks!

How do you know it is going to be a very high-risk pregnancy? Did you have one in the past?

With my daughter, I was put on strict bed rest just before week 20 and I wasn't allowed to do anything until week 35. I hope that doesn't happen this time. Especially now that I have a 3.5 year old daughter who very much needs an active mom.

You were being monitored for progesterone levels before the Rx. How was that? Did your regular dr. mandate based on your MC from earlier this year?
 
Just wanted to say hello to everyone. I am 36 years old and i am due June 4, 2011. I have a 6 year old son, and had a stillbirth at 23 weeks in June 2011.
I had my first ultrasound last Friday, heartbeat 141, nice and strong.
My first MFM(maternal fetal specialist) appt was yesterday. He said that everything looked good so far. I will be seeing the MFM at least once a month, and having a unltasound every 2 weeks with my OBGYN. I have PCOS, insulin resistance and hypothyriodim. I am thankful for being able to see my doctor so often, but I am still very nervous!!!!
Good luck to all of you!!

Welcome lizbif!
Congratulations! The heartbeat! So exciting. I've never heard of a MFM. I'll have to look that up.
Sorry to read about your stillbirth. It's very understandable why you're so nervous but it's sounds like the doctors are really taking extra care with you.
H&H 9!
 
:wave: WELCOME HStein and lizbif!!! Glad you're joining us!

No, my dr has always done that--with my other two pregnancies too. My reason for MC was never diagnosed (I never had any bleeding or cramping or anything, the heart just stopped beating). I think it's part of the protocol to test for hcg and prog as those are the two hormones that are significant for early pregnancy. I think my dr wanted me to actually have all the tests--how many did I have? Lost count...6? Because of the MC and wanted to be sure that the levels were rising appropriately.
 
I'm on the phone with an insurance company trying to advocate for a client to get out-of-network coverage. I feel a little sorry for this representative. Yup, I'm an irritated, hormonal pregnant woman so don't TRY to mess with me! I've already ripped her a new one and I'm ready for her supervisor!
 
Liz congratulations on your bfp! It must be so amazing to hear the heartbeat! im so sorry about your earlier loss.

Ellie I know what yoy mean! Today I snapped at a high school student on the subway escalator!

Thant's funny! My family is not allowed to bring up hormones. I'll rip their heads off if they do. Last time they pulled that card all the time and just made me more mad.
 
I use the hormone card all the time with my high school students. It helps keep me focused and reminds me that there are some moods that are difficult to control and that these young girls have no idea whats even controlling their moods, at times. I had a hard time with mine when I was younger and remember what it was like. Nightmare!

On another note, it is rude when family members bring it up when because then its almost as if theyre mocking us....

And on a happier note, I just went to a fancy restaurant with my friend and an older gentleman chatted us up, as we sat and ate at the bar. It was fun ordering non alcoholic drinks while my friend had 3 cucumber martinis! Anyway, he said goodnight and shortly later, we were told that he paid for our entire meal, which had to have been at least $100. So thoughtful.
 
None of these people know I'm pregnant, I think I just used it mentally to rev myself up. I get so frustrated when insurance companies say they won't cover services when they're legally required to. Try giving me the party line and I will call you on your BS! They're now covering her treatment and they're happy about it, even if it's just because they got me off the phone!
 
Brief survey: What symptoms are you experiencing right now?

For me:
- shortness of breath
- dizziness
- congestion
- headache
- nausea
- difficulty sleeping
 
I'm still a bit gassy (but thank God not much oder!), shortness of breath (I think I have heightened mold/dust sensativities), mild cramping/tugging (today more middle to right side), and creamy CM.
 
Gassy, shortness of breath, constant exhaustion, cramping/twinges now and then, and sore boobs that grow bigger every day!!
