IVF BFP 'S .. The journey, the hope, the success.

Mizuno - are you talking about the moby wrap? I looked at that one but ultimately decided that the K'tan looks less complicated. I'm doing that for LO while she's really small and for when we are at home or local and then I have an Ergobaby carrier that I picked up from Costco when they had them last year for when she's bigger.

Flagirlie - I think snoring is supposed to be normal in pregnancy. DH says I do it, too (then again, so does he ).

Hi ladies - mind if I join you?

I was on the original thread back in August but my fresh cycle had to be cancelled as I developed OHSS. We had a frozen cycle in Nov/Dec where we transferred a single embryo and I am currently 17 + 4

It will be nice to have some people to talk to as I haven't announced yet (not even to family although I think I will struggle to hide it for much longer!).

Is anyone else here a high risk pregnancy and under consultant led care?

Welcome Serenyx!!! and massive congrats

Why are you classified as high risk?

I am under watch because I'm of advanced maternal age so currently I'm going to my regular OB every 4 weeks AND a separate MFM specialist every 4 weeks for ultrasounds. Once I hit 30 weeks I start going to both EVERY 2 weeks. Can you imagine an ultrasound every two weeks!?!? I can't wait!!!

Welcome, Serenyx! I remember you from the old thread. Congrats on your pregnancy!!!

 

[Serenyx]

Thanks both for the welcome

I am high risk because my daughter was stillborn two years ago

We currently see the consultant every 4 weeks as a minimum, he did say I could go every 2 weeks but we decided on 4 weekly appointments for now. However in between consultant appointments I also have my midwife appointments. Like yourself, once I hit 30 weeks I will be seen every 2 weeks.

The extra scans can be a blessing, I have had 5 scans already and another 5 are booked, however I am terrified every time I go to the scan

I'm so sorry, Serenyx.

Do you know the gender of your LO yet?

 

[Serenyx]

I'm so sorry, Serenyx.

Do you know the gender of your LO yet?

Thank you

No we don't know, I am happy to stay on team yellow but this is one decision I leave up to my DH (he doesn't get to make many decisions regarding the pregnancy ). He wanted to find out last time so I guess he will again but he doesn't make up his mind until we are actually at the scan.

At my scan this week the consultant did ask if we wanted to know just incase anything was seen on the ultrasound but we didn't see anything (I am pretty terrible at interpreting the scans anyway though!).

Serenyx I am so sorry for your loss

Thank you Mizuno We will take a short break and will try it again. Dr told us that we have one really good embryo, 2 good ones and 1 ok. Hopefully next round will be the lucky one.

Megan, I hope you somehow still read this!

My IVF clinic is doing a clinical trial that is for people with IVF failures despite having "good embryos". They cover meds and the IVF treatment itself:

Koshka, I am so so sorry to hear that

 

[PostalMom]

Koshka, I'm so sorry babe. Be strong and don't give up.

On a different note.. my Sil is was also pregnant with twin girls. Last night her water broke at 26 weeks 5 days. The girls are hanging in there at 2 lbs 13 inches, and 1 lb 15 oz and 12.3 inches. Please send good thoughts out for kesha, chloe and Amelia.
