IVF until we all get our bfp! 2012-present *13 w/twins & 1 w/triplets!*

[MrsC8776]

AFM ~ I just got my second beta results a little bit ago and it's 1301. My 1st beta was 3 days ago (15dpo), so I checked doubling time and it's 35.4 which I'm happy with. My first scan will be a week from now on the 9th. I can't wait!!

Great 2nd beta!!

crappy to be honest, emotionally. Why does it seem like MOST of you girls get a BFP on cycle 1; then me who has nothing obvious that would cause problems cant get pg on 3 cycles. Sorry, I'm just a little annoyed atm.... I need to snap out of it.... 16 days until my F/U. I've come to the conclusion that me and my RE may have to part ways if the FET doesnt take, and that really stings since I like him. anyways, thanks for asking

I totally understand where you are coming from..... unexplained infertility in my case then why am i know prego with 6 IUI's and 1 IVF so far.... so frustating

 

[Swepakepa3]

Hi Ladies,
I am back from my scan... Some bad news.. One of the babies did not make it.. From the very first scan, the doctors were not sure about that one.. Today's scan there was no heartbeat and the sac was really really small....
The other one is fine though and measured right on track.
I am definitely disappointed but also glad that the other one is doing fine. I will need to find a new OB-GYN anyway because my OB delivers at a hospital 50 mins away and I don't want to go there... So hopefully I can get a new OB appointment this week and hope this baby turns out nice and healthy.

sorry that both weren't sticky , however congrats on the one that did stick!!!! Yippie!!

 

[Swepakepa3]

AFM: still no AF however i did speak to the MD office, they told me to still come in for the first scan tomorrow.... so we shall see what they say

 

[TwoRdue]

Oh, more spotting pink this time so rung the nurse back and they will be doing another blood test tomorrow to make sure all is still rising. She did say that she is not to worried as it can be common not that it makes me feel any better... Now just the waiting game..

 

[hiccups]

Want so sorry. I'm glad to hear the other baby is ok.

 

[Lulu 07]

drsquid ~ I love purple! I'm sure it'll look great! Make sure to post pics once you're done with it.

Lindsay ~ I think it's adorable that your mom is doing some shopping for baby. I know my mom would start shopping as soon as she finds out what I'm having. Yaaay for the 9th! I guess we'll both have updates then!

Two ~ pink spotting should be ok. You should get it checked out but don't worry about it too much.

Swepa ~ good luck tomorrow!!

 

[Pink gerbera]

Want - sorry one didn't make it but at least you have one strong baby on board As you said the RE/ you have worried since the first scan for the second one.

Lulu - great 2nd beta. Hooray

Lindsay - wow girl you are getting prepared! I've bought two little baby grows, one for each and put them in the room that will be the nursery and that's as far as it goes at the moment. I think I'm holding off till 12 weeks then I'll shop away

Mobaby - I'm sorry you're feeling crappy. We've all been there. Just keep positive one day you will be a mummy

Xxx

 

[GettingBroody]

Mo - There's nothing fair about any of this - you have every right to feel as you do.

Lulu - Thanks! great numbers!

BOMO - good luck with ER today!

Never - I felt like that the last few days of stimming too. Was very aware of when I was walking around... You're nearly there!

Bubu - how are you feeling?

DrS & Lindsay - yay for decorating the nursery!! I can't wait to be at that stage!

MrsC - hope your dh makes it home in time for the scan! If not, will you reschedule?

OneOf - I really hope this cycle brings your bfp!

NotOpt - hope af is just around the corner

Afm, doing great! Just counting down the days towards my scan on the 9th - it really cannot come quick enough! Also, my voice appears to be gone this morning!

Mo I so understand how you are feeling and I am in the same boat! ... Unfortunately - that's life and life is unfair... if it were fair, none of us would have to go down the route of AC. At times I have felt the same - really happy for the girls when they are successful (no matter after how many tries) and also sad, that it seems to go "easily" for some and others have to struggle for so long.
It is a trying road... physically, emotionally and psychologically! My clinic even offers psychological support because they know how difficult it is - both going through it all, as well as the disappointments we're faced with.
We will get our long-wanted - unfortunately, we have to have that much more patience and strength to get there

Want - I am so sorry that you lost one of the little ones ... sadly, it is always one of the dangers lurking around the corner in any pregnancy and - unfortunately - very common with IVF. You have one other very strong little baby in there and I think you will have a nice and healthy bubba

Mo - There's nothing fair about any of this - you have every right to feel as you do.

Getting - thank you for asking. TBH I am trying not to feel - if that makes sense? I was so convinced last try that I felt something and was so sure that I had implantation going on etc. that it was that much more devastating when it was a ... so ... I am trying to ignore it and not read anything into it, but last night I did have light AF-like cramping ... which I didn't pay any attention to because ... well ... I have my blood test on Sunday and then I will know ... (Does that make any sense).

 

[Lindsay18]

Drs- nothing is definite yet until I find out how much it will be lol. I'll be doing the actual painting on the walls (I LOVE painting- I painted my entire house by myself!) we just want to hire someone to do a cute picture of some sort on a part of one of the walls. Nothing major lol

 

[Jenn76]

Swepakepa: Good luck at your scan, I hope AF comes soon!

TwoRdue: Good Luck today, I'm sure the test will reassure you that the nurse is right and everything is normal.

Drsquid: Have fun painting your nursery. Purple sounds great, I hope you post a pic. I can't wait to know what I am having so I can plan the nursery too. I had the room painted a light green back when we built the house. Since we were trying to conceive back then I figured by the time the house was built we would be pregnant and need the room. Finally two years later I can set it up.

Lindsay: My mom is so excited to shop as well we went to babies r us looking once but really couldn't find any cute unisex stuff. Once she knows the sex we will be going on a shopping spree.

Bubu: How are you feeling? When is your test date?

Broody: Hey scan buddy 6 days to go!

Hi Jenn (I hope you don't mind, I am just copying the answer I wrote to Getting ... ) thank you for asking. TBH I am trying not to feel - if that makes sense?

I am trying to ignore it and not read anything into it, but last night I did have light AF-like cramping (and off and on a sort of pressure-like feeling today) ... which I didn't pay any attention to because ... well ... I have my blood test on Sunday and then I will know ... (Does that make any sense).

That is a great second beta! Nice number. Can't wait for your update!!!

 

[bubumaci]

... not reading anything into it / feeling anything ... but:
Since about an hour ago I am feeling so exhausted, it is not funny... probably the progesterone (Utrogest) - but ... not possible from the transfer two days ago? *hope*

 

[PRAYIN4BABIES]

Good Morning!!!

How is everyone feeling?

 

[michelle01]

Hi Angie! I am here, just not really posting much on this thread. I am doing OK, waiting for AF who is now 2 days late; so darn fustrating!

Want - I am so sorry about baby #2, but you still have one strong bean on board!

Mobaby - I am sorry you feel so crappy; I have those days to. There are a few of us that are right were you are, starting cycle #3 I am not that optomistic.

Congrats to everyone else that got a BFP; happy for all of you!

 

[jchic]

Want - I am so sorry. I imagine hearing that was difficult. Good news is baby 1 is onboard and perfectly healthy. All my love honey!

Hope everyone is doing ok! So busy at work, so will do personals later and properly catch up. Have my last scan at my RE's office tomorrow, graduation day! Then I head to my regular obgyn on Monday!

 

[BabyOnMyOwn]

On my way to ER now, I still feel horrible and didn't really sleep well last night. I'm scared I'll bleed again this time. Oiy! I'll let you all know how it goes!

Have a great day!
