Sorry to update ladies that I had a miscarriage today. It's been a difficult day but not entirely unexpected. Looking forward to some normality now away from the ttc ivf nightmare. That's me done with it.
Going to book a holiday with my boys and get back to living!

Wishing you all much love and good wishes and thanks for all the support xxx

Hi all of you lovely ladies! So sorry i have been MIA! When we got our ivf treatment we had just moved out of our house, we had sold it months prior and were waiting to move into our new build, we moved in 5 weeks ago and we have not had internet�� then we took a holiday to salou so been all go,.. its been grim haha but i brought my ipad round to my mums to do some internet shopping and wanted to say and and check in o you all.

Minno, i was reading through catching up since i was last here and i was so happy and excited for you then read your last post and feel so upset for you, you have been through so much. I just want you to know that i am thinking of you and hope your heart heals soon, let your boys fill you with love and hugs,... Wishing you well and hope you managed rest on holiday xx

Hi everyone else too, great to read you are all doing so well, really happy for you all.

Us, well all going fine, twins gave me a scare at nine weeks i bled bad, hospital did a scan and all ok, had our 12 week scan last week and they looked perfect! We are in our 13 th week now and i am sick as a dog! Hope this goes away soon.

I will try and pop back on soon, should have sky in shortly so i can keep up to date with you all, for now though love to you all, hugs to minno, you girls are so lovely xx

Hey everyone

How lovely is this weather!

Chi really nice to hear your doing so well, must have been terrifying that bleed though. This years flying by, 13 weeks already!. Are you keeping it a surprise or do you think you'll fine out the gender?.

Hey H, how's things with you? Did you manage to get your pram/buggie? It's not long now eh! - you must be excited. From an outsider looking in it seems like the weeks are just melting away but maybe that's not the case when your pg? Lots of worries - well defo me anyway! I worry about everything.

Afm - well as you know last Cycle was a disaster. Zero fertilization. This cycle was ICSI with drugs changed to menopur 300ui. Stimms were fine, we got 13 eggs! last time 5. Called the next day - 9 were immature!!! but 3 fertilized and 1 fragmented. I was crying at my lost 9 but it was a relief we could make embryos together!. I'm all honesty I didn't hold much hope for 3 embies making it to day 3 far a less day 5.

Fast forward through sleepless nights and lots of tears on my part. Monday 9th June we had 3 high quality blastos! shocked doesn't come close.

We discussed transferring 1 or 2 which felt so surreal to be actually having that conversation but considering the advice of Anne and DH we decided on 1. That was 8 days ago.

I want everything yesterday so I've been testing since 3dp5dt (trying to convince myself I was testing out the trigger) Yeah right!. BFNs... Until 6dp5dt - I have been testing positive the last 3 days (numerous tests) but for some reason the lines are darker at night. This morning I thought I was out. 2 tests with barely there line. I was devastated beyond belief. I am so confused tonight I took another and it's slightly darker the my night one yesterday. I thought I was out, still pretty upset really don't know what to think. OTD isn't till Sunday. I got the darkest positive yet tonight but that this morning has really terrified me. Same brand, same morning time but a barely their line- twice!. I want to be happy but I'm absolutely terrified, DH is so positive but I help but think something must be wrong for that test to show as it did regardless of tonight's. Sorry girls - no one to speak to except DH and my BB buddies xxx

Hope your all well Minno xx

Waves to everyone xx

Hey Glitter,
Lovely to hear from you. That's fantastic news and stay positive, remember it's still early so tests won't show great! But if you are getting some darker lines then that's a good sign ! I know how upsetting it is to hear not many were a success but remember it only takes one ! Good luck for Sunday, I'm sure all will go well . Xx

No it's not long at all, we could be taken in 7.5 weeks ! It has flown by for me! I thought it would drag but it certainly hasn't! We haven't yet got pram but know which one we are getting so will be ordering it within next few days xx

 

[Funfair1980]

Hello ladies sorry to be quiet I was going through all the post and if I type to reply it wasn't sending the post.

Minno I was also happy for you only to read your resent post about miscarriage how devastating, I am so so sorry and my thoughts are with you, just take as much time as you want to grieve and most of all enjoy time with your boys.

Chi 13wks already time is flying, hope sickness settles down.
H almost time to download, the twins will be joining us soon. Are you going for natural, induction or c-section.
Glitter fingers crossed its a bfp Sunday is round the corner.
V howz you and your boy doing hope he is behaving and looking forward to joining us.
Me and wee man are doing well, he's so well behaved just gets up once for feed around 5ish and goes back to sleep till 8-9. Enjoying the sunshine and going out to playgroups with him, he enjoys watching other kids playing. 12wks now and learning to sit.

Waves to everyone. x

Hi ladies and waves all round!

We are doing good, met the twin consultant at forth valley yesterday so all going well. Did you know they tell you the sex of twins at 20 weeks? I was gonna book a private scan but wont need to now

Glitter, thats fabulous, everything is crossed for you but i feel it that ur ++++++ xxx

 

[H4M]

Funfair sounds like you have a very clever little man there . We are hoping natural.. They are both facing down so that's a good sign, have a scan again in couple of weeks and will see nearer time, if they still in correct position then will be natural but if one turns round or not growing as well Ect then will proberly be a c section but so far so good xx

Chi that's good you had your app, yeh I knew about the sex and 20 weeks, that's when we got told exciting times, how you feeling? Xx

 

[Chi mama]

Feeling ok, more tired than anything, have a scan on july 10th just to see they are ok and will be 16 weeks by ten hope u well xx

 

[V2R]

Hi everyone sorry not been on for a while it's been hectic training my cover at work she has since walked out lol property I rent out is empty now so been busy sorting that out just not had a minute to think about baby!

How are you all? H4M are you having a natural birth, have you done your plan yet? Congrats Chi mama are you finding out what you are having? Funfair your wee man will be getting big how many months now? Minno I am still thinking about you, I hope your ok & booked a holiday.
Whats the update with everyone else on this thread? I'm a bit lost now I've been away for a while!

My wee boy is a right wriggler he is defo letting me know he is in there but I love feeling the kicks & even go to my bed early just to see if I can see my tummy moving. Decided on my pram so that's getting ordered next week. Still not thought of names my o/h keeps suggesting ones I don't like!!! I can see our baby being 'no name' for a while. Cant wait to meet him. xx

 

[H4M]

Hi everyone. Sorry I've not been on in ages. Had problems with internet Ect on my phone.
V that's great about baby moving how are you getting on? Did you get your pram ordered? We are struggling with names too ! I find girls names easy but boys very tricky... Not long for us to go now approx 4-5 weeks before we get taken in.... Scary how quick this has all come around. Have had another scan though and everything is fine with both babies. Hope you get your house sorted out. How long have you got left of work? Xx

How's everyone else doing???? xx

Hello! I'm also starting ivf at Dundee next month just waiting on day 1 to make the phonecall, pack through and spray waiting to go. Excited but nervous. I too have high ovarian reserve, spoke with the clinic and they said that the only thing that may happen is injections reduced dose and maybe more scans, we will see.

Good luck xx

 

[Chi mama]
