Clomid & male factor infertility

[pink32]

Hi Girls,

these are the type of pics that i got from my last ultrasound...unfortunately there were no full length photos of bub but here they are...my little munchkin is still very boney...the really good 4d pics will be at 30 weeks (thereabouts)

 

[Mamamirfy]

You're lucky....I can only get my 3D pics done at 22 weeks, no later. I'd love to get one at 30 or so....you can really tell what they're going to look like

 

[pink32]

really why? is that because they're twins? because they told me the best 3d/4d scans are between 26 and 32 weeks because they have fat on their face and its just the best time....that's why my buba looks like a little alien has no fat on its face yet...

 

[MySillyGirls]

Wow!! They won't do 3d pics here unless you order them from somewhere other than your ob/gyn.

 

[Mamamirfy]

Yup, same here. All private- I think it's $175 for the package. They said twins r best done at 22 weeks because they run out of room after that. Otherwise with singletons they do like to do them later. Id do anything for just a normal scan. Been forever.

 

[pink32]

wow, we have it soooooo much easier here we can get private ones too which i will be doing at a bout 30 weeks which also includes a professional maternity shoot and pic, 50-100 baby fotos and 1 newborn photo....

Lesley how are u feeling? bloated? anything? i know u will be testing soon, be sure to update us asap..

girlies - i just went to the shops this morning and i tell ya what, i'm struggling with baby clothes...there are sooooo many beautiful outfits for girls i just want to buy them u know... i'm the most impatient person i know - seriously - so i'm quite proud of myself atm....

dying to know what ur having miranda and we got ages to wait ....Xoxo

 

[Mamamirfy]

Lesley - how are you? When do you get to test?

R- Good for you for not buying anything! I haven't been so well behaved. I have bought boy and girl stuff. In my heart I really feel like that's what im having. But either way..im bound to use some of it so no biggie lol

I know! I'm dying to find out for sure....

 

[MySillyGirls]

Hey, girls. I think I am out. I started testing (with FRER) and got a BFN. I know it is early and I'll keep testing but it doesn't look good. It feels like a repeat of last time. BLECH. If this didn't work, I am going to Vegas for a long weekend of fun and debauchery.

 

[Mamamirfy]

How many dpt are you? I loooooove Vegas- wish I could join ya. Not out yet sista!

 

[MySillyGirls]

Today would have been 10dpo or 7dp3dt.

I LOVE Vegas!! Did I ever tell you I got married in Vegas? LOL

 

[pink32]

hi girls,

Lesley ur not out yet! are u feeling bloated? feeling any diff from the last time? did they freeze some eggs or did u transfer all of them? dont give up yet - i'm not..

Miranda - ur too funny! you know i was going to buy some girly clothes too! there is one particular outfit which i absoltely adore - but what if i have a boy lol...

i hope u have a girl and boy too! that would be perfect, one of each but i guess we'll juz take what we're given

 

[Mamamirfy]

Lesley - OMG So jealous! I wanted to get married there but DH wouldn't allow it! We LOVE it there though, went 4 times in one year once, I went last year with the girls...but our Vegas days are over for a while I suppose. So nice and close, it's only a 2.5 hour flight. I wouldn't be booking your trip just yet tho girly....you're not out yet

R - I bought more stuff today! I went to get my nephew a birthday gift at Carters/Osh Kosh and couldnt help myself...but I only bought girl stuff this time. Sooooo cute!

 

[MySillyGirls]

Miranda, baby shopping is so fun! When my daughters were babies, I always shopped at Gymboree.. I still try to shop for them there, but they are fighting back and want stuff from Justice. Boo. Also, the clothes at Hanna Andersson are really cute!

Well BFN, FRER 8dp3dt. I wonder if my problem is implantation..

 

[Mamamirfy]

We have Gymboree here but not Justice or Hanna Andersson's. I'm going to Seattle for the weekend for shopping..I'll see if they have them there.

What day are you supposed to go for blood tests? I got a positive a a bit early but it was VERy faint and I have two in there...so please don't lose hope. Did they change your progesterone dose at all?

 

[MySillyGirls]

I don't think they changed my progesterone dose. Frankly, I also don't have any symptoms at all... I didn't have any embies left to freeze

So, check out www.hannaandersson.com They don't have a ton of stores (although we do have one near us...most of their business is mail order. On my oldest dd's modeling stuff, she almost always wears hanna to auditions..lol

 

[Mamamirfy]

Well it aint over til the fat lady sings! Checked out the link...super cute. I can't wait til I can buy things guilt free......i need to know what i have growing in there. Do you have a guess?

 

[MySillyGirls]

I am guessing one of each

 

[Mamamirfy]

Thats my feeling too. Still feeling unhopeful?

 

[pink32]

hi Girls,

lesley lets wait till u get ur bloods done...i stil have a good feeling this time...

Miranda - i love osh kosh, they sell it at department stores here so its not as expensive as it use to be - alot more affordable.

i'm so tempted to buy a girly outfit but i dont know what i'll do with it if i have a boy??? i said to dh "maybe i should buy it and and find out what the stores exchange policy is" dont think they'll exchange after 4 months...hahaha!

we bought a mattress for the cot last nite..got a great bargain too... the matress was orignially $170 and it was on sale for $85...also got the new video monitors with Lcd colour screen which was also on sale....we've pretty much got all the big stuff now which is great...we got things at the right time...

hope u girls have e a great weekend...we're still with my parents so cant wait till our house sells so we can move out and buy our own...just praying its soon really want to be in our own place b4 bub arrives.... xoxoo

 

[MySillyGirls]

Hiya, girls!! I hope you are both feeling well. Sadly, I am most certainly out. BFN. Beta should have been tomorrow but the office is closed tomorrow, so I'll go Monday. Anyway, I have a phone consultation on Monday with an adoption attorney. My feelings right now are a mixed bag. I LOVE and BELIEVE in adoption with all my heart. After all, my youngest doll was adopted and she is soo much like me it is scary. However, I also loved those little embies. And, my mind raced back sooo many times to that adorable little blonde curly first born of mine who grew up way too fast. I had really gotten used to the idea of another one of those. Another small baby (youngest dd was 13 mos when she came home from Russia).

Finally, and probably one of the most difficult things is that this whole process has been representative of my age and time flying by on me. You always think you have soo much time to pursue your dreams and really you don't. It seemed like I was young yesterday and now IVF has been a constant reminder that I am not anymore.

LOL...sorry for the drama. My heart and head hurts right now. Hugs to you guys!!

Also, I may hang around for another week or so to follow a couple BNB gals on another thread, then, I am probably pulling out of BNB. Luckily, I am FB friends with you fantastic ladies, so we can be in touch anytime
