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

[princess_1991]

Just thought I'd share for those who hadn't seen my journal, found out yesterday we are having a little girl

Tiff - glad everything is ok, I think after our journeys the only thing we ask for is a healthy pregnancy!

Aq - yay for recommendation letter, got my fingers tightly crossed for august!

 

[Kelly9]

Well statistically IVF pregnancies favour females more then males, it's not a huge difference but it's there. Congrats. I'm praying for a little girl to.

 

[~Hope~]

I suppose our record here stacks up with that. With little Hannah and then Kirsten, Tracey, Doodar, and Isabella all with girls, and rosa with a boy. Did I miss anyone?

Tiff I really hope the spotting was nothing. And AQ I told her the exact same thing, just cos you only have one back doesn't mean identicals aren't possible!

Aq so glad your appeal has been submitted. It's really not long until august 13 - I have a ticker as its my 20 week scan that day too!

Kirsten congrats again for team pink

 

[africaqueen]

Kirsten- Yay for team pink! lots of pretty things for lil girls x

Hope- Ooh i shall keep my eye on your ticker then and look forward to your scan an also the decision for us altho im so nervous incase its a no again x

[Kelly9]

Hope are you leaning towards any specific gender?

Princess was your intuition telling you girl or boy before you knew?

I know indents could happen just not very likely. Plus if it's indents it HAS to be two girls cause I don't want 4 kids!!!!

 

[princess_1991]

Thanks girls!

Tiff - I could have sworn blind it was Gunna be a boy, I was so sure to the point I had dh starting to think it might have been a boy and we were both calling her "he"!
When the sonographer said girl we were so shocked! I cried
Still hasn't quite sunk in yet

 

[schoolteacher]

Wow princess a beautiful baby girl that's lovely!

Tiff- sorry to hear you had some pink cm I dread that happening even though everything I have read says it's normal and doesn't mean anything bad. Your mind would automatically feel the opposite! Glad your getting some betas, so annoying my clinic don't do them-though if I really got worried I would go to go and insist! X

Hope- I hadn't realised how many baby girls on this thread til u said! Interesting! X

aQ- great news on letter and date coming up! X

AFM- very tired but that's partly due to busy at school! Does pregnancy really go this slow? I've only known of my pregnancy 5 days and it just seems like the 2nd trimester is a life time away! It's just that I'm finding these early days so scary in case something happens! Feel guilty about everything e.g only eating 1 of my 5 a day today! Oh dear. X

 

[Kelly9]

I had to get the betas from my doctor, she's closer and it's easier.

Going in for my official clinic test tomorrow.

HA! Yes, it really does go that slowly. Especially in the 1st tri when we're afraid of everything. Every little twinge, every drop of blood (heaven forbid), everyTHING! Just think of every day as a step and every week as a milestone. You'll get there.

AQ, so exciting that you got your first approval!! Do you know when you'll find out the final verdict?

Tiff and ST, look at your beautiful tickers!
Am I really the only one having a boy?! Wow!

 

[Kelly9]

I have a boy he's 2 though

 

[babies7777]

Loving the new tickers, its so exciting in here, aq and tink its gonna be u next, and elmar, oooh aq did u say it was mr kingsland who wrote ur letter? i saw him on the news a few weeks back and he was fully supporting nice guidelines for a 3rd try so fingers an toes crossed his letter will swing it for u!

My dh thinks our second embie was a boy and the girl was stronger, it does look like that from our thread numbers for sure.

Re the worry, i still get scared when she has little quiet times and try wake her up, i think we worry till they are born then worry even more

 

[Traskey]

Tiff, good luck for your blood tests today.

ST, yes, it's a worry about eating and vitamins etc. Just hang in there, only one more day of school and then you can relax a bit at home.

Babies, my DH tries to wake ours up too when they get quiet.

Rosa, yay for boys

AQ, things are sounding positive, keep up the PMA!

for everyone else

 

[~Hope~]

ST the entire first tri is filled with worry - you just have to try and relax and stay positive. Oh and some days I don't even manage one of my five a day! Just get some prenatal vits

Tiff - I know you have a boy - but since he was your miracle I didn't add him to the list FX for the beta

I've been referring to twin 1 as she and twin 2 as he but I'm not sure that's an inkling. Gonna have to wait a while to see if I'm right as we're staying as Team Yellow until they arrive. Boo! DH is insisting!

AQ - my fingers are staying tightly crossed for you.

Hello everyone - got to dash I need to start working again :wave:

 

[Kelly9]

Gosh hope I couldn't do it with twins! I'd want to plan.

Won't have blood test from tuesday till tomorrow at the earliest and maybe not then looks like I'm not getting my results from today till next week. So mad, I've been worrying like crazy, the least they could do it put an end to it.

 

[africaqueen]

Hi ladies.

Babies- Yes mr K is our consultant an he has written the support letter x

Rosa- We will find out mid/end of aug the final decision. How are you doing? x

ST- has the news sunk in yet? lol x

I'm doing good, thanks! Very happy that I'm on summer break from teaching because I'm not sleeping well at night. Nursery is ready. 33 weeks tomorrow, so we're on the final countdown and getting excited!

 

[Kelly9]

It's always good to get the nursery done

My first beta was 128, I'm quiet happy with that
