Rosa-still so pleased for you!! you have another beta tommorrow don't you?xxxx

Thanks! Yes, tomorrow is beta #2. Still trying not to get too excited until I hear that number.

ST and princess, sorry that you're still waiting for af. How annoying! I think everyone on this thread has had to wait for her at some point. Hopefully she comes soon!

Kelly,

Babies, do you still have ohss bloat? When did it go away?

 

[babies7777]

I'm still really bloated, i thought this morning when i woke up it had gone down a little but its back tonight. I'm not sure when its meant to calm but having said that im not fluid restricted at all so that may be why its still the same. Are you still taking progestrone? my clinic is doing a trial to see if extended use of it is beneficial and im taking part, i dont know if i have the real thing or a placebo till i give birth but i do wonder if the bloating is anything to do with the possible progestrone intake as well too. Everything crossed for your test tomorrow and i hope work is easy on you.

Every morning I wake up feeling like it's a bit better and then it's not. Yes, still taking progesterone. Shots and the suppositories.

Just popping on to wish Rosa good luck with tomorrows beta result x

Lou- Nice to see u back, we should be starting around same time x

Hi to everyone else. Im back at work tomorrow so off to bed. 10 days till AMH result xxx

 

[princess_1991]

Cramping tonight! I reckon I'll wake up with a visit from the witch tomorrow but I'm in no rush, clinic says we'll start when she comes but secretly I want her to hurry up

Rosa good luck for beta tomorrow,

just a quickie girls, I really should get some shut eye

 

[Kelly9]

Rosa so long as it's not getting worse! Keep an eye on your weight it should tell you how much fluid you got in there and if it's getting worse or better. I had stage 3 OHSS so it took forever and a day for my bloat to go down but your ovaries will stay big till second tri, mine are still 2-3 times bigger then they should be though they're not bothering me anymore and haven't for a long time.

 

[princess_1991]

Af has arrived
Because i woke up on, that counts as cd1 right?
That means I start stims tomorrow

 

[babies7777]

yayayayayayyayayaayay thats great news princess, soooooooooo excited for u!!

Af has arrived
Because i woke up on, that counts as cd1 right?
That means I start stims tomorrow

 

[~Hope~]

if you woke up bleeding then I think today is cd1! Oh how exciting! I am so glad that you can finally get started Kirsten

Rosa any news?

I'm finally starting to feel better, went back to the docs today and she was happy for me not to take the horrid antibiotics, I've just got to complete the course of the other ones. And then once that's out of the way on Saturday I get to start the caneston pessaries that she prescribed today! Then it's my turn to wonder when the witch will turn up...

I was reading the miscarriage chapter of zita's book and a guy in there says that it's not true about the risk of miscariage being greatest up until 12 weeks and that it's actually 8 weeks. It's just skewed because of the number of missed miscarriages that are identified at a 12 week scan. If we are lucky with our FET I'll be asking for a scan at 8 weeks instead of 7, I think our last one was a week too early, once I saw that heartbeat I let myself relax and make plans and I don't want to do that again. He says if the heartbeat is there at 8 weeks there is a 98% chance that you won't miscarry.

Hope everyone is ok and enjoying the first real day of 2012.

AQ how was work?

 

[Kelly9]

^ hope that is right! Cause after the 8th week the baby officially becomes a fetus and the placenta takes over nourishment and growth thats why we always waited to hear the HB at or around 9 weeks to announce, I felt comfortable saying something to family then.

Princess yay!!!! My clinic says it's cd 1 if she shows before 3pm so I'd call it cd1!

 

[rosababy]

Af has arrived
Because i woke up on, that counts as cd1 right?
That means I start stims tomorrow

Yayyy!!!! Bring on the jabs!!! We really need a jab emoticon.

Hope, no news yet. Doc didn't write "stat" on the order for the beta, so I'll probably find out tomorrow. Totally annoying. Very interesting on the 8 week versus 12 weeks! I never knew that! Glad you're feeling better.

 

[princess_1991]

Doc says today is cd1 so I start stims tomorrow
Also follie scan is booked for Monday and Thursday
Can't believe were finally getting somewhere!

 

[babies7777]

Hi everyone hope you're all ok.

Hope, i never knew that either, think im gonna try book an 8 week scan too now.

Rosa, everything crossed for tomorrows result

Princess yay for starting tomorrow, soooooooo excited for u.

Wanna see a good bloat pic? I'll show you mine from when I had 11 pounds of fluid in my stomach waiting to be drained.... let me dig it up your eyes will pop out of your head! Oh and just so you all know I'm not doing it to compete and babies thats an impressive bloat! Do you know how much fluid you got in there?
