IVF/ICSI in Aug/Sept/Oct Updates on 1st page!

[~Hope~]

Kazz how did it go?

Flip it's true the needles for stimming are really nothing. Just keep positive thoughts in your mind. I can really recommend the IvF hypnotherapy programme from Circle and bloom (google them) for staying calm and positive

Well thanks to me having some random palpitations a few weeks back I just got fitted with a 48 hour heart monitor. Have this little box hanging off my chest, no idea how I'm going to sleep tonight, it's hard enough already. And I can't shower until after 3pm on Friday when I get to take it off!

Oh hope that sucks! I hope it's nothing though.

oooh sorry to hear that. Just HAD to write to say I love the names for your daughters! I would love such names (well in french) but my DH would never go for it =p

 

[Kelly9]

You've picked names hope?!?! That can't be right you don't know gender yet... I need to make a guess for you at some point.

 

[kazzab25]

Hi ladies, hope your all doing well!

Hope, now showering till Friday!! Feel for you Hun!! Hope you get it sorted though!

Kelly how's you?

Well, we had the appt, I'm going on metformin for two months which I'm happy about as I've heard good things about this as I suffer with acne, weight and excess hair! Not much going for me really! So I'm hoping this will help! Does anyone have any experience with this? Scan of womb all looks good, oh as was 2 million but the motility is now normal and but morph still low. But as long as all my blood comes back normal looks, like we are being accepted for egg sharing ! Wahoo!

 

[~Hope~]

Kazza that is good news. Fx the metformin helps.

Indigo and Violet are just the nick names for the babies in utero

Tiff we do know the genders - we found out at 20 weeks - it's a secret though as we decided we didnt want the world to know until they are born. In real life only our close family knows. Let me know your guess and I'll tell you if you're right

 

[Kelly9]

Sneaky hope! Ill pm you when on my lap top. Remind me of your earlier symptoms?
Kazza great news!

 

[schoolteacher]

OMG hope we thought you were totally team yellow! How exciting! X

Kazza- I took metformin for awhile but had to stop as I couldn't deal with the side effects! Are you building the dose gradually? It's known to be a bit of a bitch but I hope it helps! X

 

[~Hope~]

I always wanted to know and DH said he wanted to be team yellow so I came around to his way of thinking. Then at the 20 week scan I said to the lady that we didn't want to know the sexes and he pipes up that we could find out if I wanted to. Cheeky swine I could have kicked him! He said he wanted me to have a surprise, but he was happy for that surprise to be at the scan. We decided to only tell our close family, so every time someone asks wether we know I lie and say no, because I've found if I say yes but it's a secret people try and push me to tell them!

Tiff early symptoms were extreme tiredness, nausea (but no vomiting). No cravings really. Ad my bump is all in front.

 

[kazzab25]

Hiya

I'm building it up gradually three days on 500 mg, 3 days on 100 mg then full1500 mg

 

[Kelly9]

Hope I pm'd you! Waiting eagerly for a response!

Kazza I hope it's kind to you.

 

[Tinks85]

Hello ladies, how are we all?

I wouldn't have the strength to be team yellow

Any gender guessing for my little olives? My gut feeling is 2 boys.

Kaz, I was on metformin during my first cycle. I went straight on to 1500mg a day. I had a bit of sickness and an upset tummy but don't think I was actually sick. Hope you have few side effects Hun. Congrats on being accepted for egg sharing though. Exciting

A few twinges today just below my belly and was worried. I worry over everything. Is this normal? The MW said cramps and twinges can just mean you uterus is expanding?

 

[babies7777]

I got lots of twinges and stretching, im guessing with twins its even worse. Just rest as much as u can and drink lots of water, it def helps.

 

[Kelly9]

With twins you would for sure have more cramps etc! I'm getting quiet a few and I've got just the one in there. What were or are some of your pregnancy symptoms and cravings?

 

[Maddie30]

Hi ladies,

Wow I feel I've missed so much. I'm now on maternity leave and I really don't know where the time has gone. I'm term tomorrow so anytime now. Follow up uss was good. Bean remains on 10th centile but liquor volume ok. We just can't wait now to meet our precious baby

Tinks congratulations I'm so please for you. I'm sorry about your bad news though and hope your partner bearing up ok. Don't worry about twinges...it's quite normal. Any concerns though see gp . Xxxx

St and Kelly glad your a little bit better. Hope your both well

Hope how did the 48hour monitoring go? Not long for you too Xxxx

Kazzab so glad you have a plan now. Goodluck with metformin . Xxxx

How are my mum's doodar,rosa,babies,princess??? Hope your loving every minute of it Xxxx

Aq and the rest of gang ....hiiii Xxxx

 

[Tinks85]

Thank you for the reassurance girls

Kelly, how are you. does different symptoms mean different sexes hun? My symptoms are sickness but not often actually sick just feel it, tiredness. Gone of all sweet food so no cake, biscuits, chocolate, ice cream, sweets. Craving melted cheese especially cheese toasties and veg at the minute and carbs like chips and crisps and hash browns.

Maddie, wow I can't believe you are term. So exciting. Hope you don't go over

Hop, how are you doing with that machine?

 

[Maddie30]

Me neither Tinks xx

 

[Kelly9]

For me different symptoms meant different gender and they've been consistent with all my pregnancies. Though can be different from person to person. I think you're having at least 1 boy but I'm not sure about the other, twins makes it so much harder to guess. Maybe boy girl twins Thats my guess for now.

Maddie yay for mat leave! I'll be on mine in Feb sometime and can't wait!

 

[Tinks85]

Boy girl twins would be perfect obviously we don't really mind though as long as they are both healthy. Can't wait to find out. Previous experience is good for me. I do think 2 boys.

How is everyone? X

 

[~Hope~]

Maddie yay for being nearly term and for mat leave! You'll be our next mummy

Tinks I'm saying boy for your cravings and girl for your ms so my guess is one of each

The monitor came off on Friday and I was so happy to take a shower! I'm dropping it back tomorrow when we go for our 32 week scan so I expect they'll write with the results. I didn't have any palpitations so expect to get the all clear.

Hope everyone is ok and enjoying what's left of the weekend :wave:
