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

[drsquid]

i didnt feel anything til umm 19-20 weeks i think (heh already dont remember). i kniw it was around when i popped. i thought itd be earlier cause of two but when i scan them they are mostly pummeling each other rather than me. i felt the boy stretching a lot before i felt them kicking (he likes to push out or something.. all i know is i get a weird ridge along my side and it feels kinda creepy),. the kicks are cool, decided they feel like when you get eye twitches. ie like a little not painful muscle spasm or something,. neat

 

[GettingBroody]

Az - delighted the IUI went well!!! Keeping everything crossed and sending loads of

Want - so sorry you're going through this. Even when you know exactly what it is it's still stressful and worrying. Hopefully this gush and clot might have been the end of it?

Sekky -

DrS - that monitor sounds cool, must google!

 

[Jenn76]

DrSquid: So can you put it up in the corner of the room and be able to zoom into each crib? Your schedule must be hard to find child care, I assume you'd be looking for a nanny.

Want: I'm so sorry that the bleeding is still happening. I hope your doctor will see you sooner. I imagine the more clots that you can pass the sooner it will be over, but I'd be stressed too.

Pink: No movement for me yet, so looking forward to it. I was wondering the same thing as to when I could expect it.

Sekky: I hope you can get started again soon. You are another one of he ladies that has been here from the start and I'm truly hoping to see BFP's by everyone's names on this front page.

want I am so sorry i hope you can get in this week!

afm, I have been experiencing these dry chicken skin type bumps on my legs right under my tush and also hive like bumps on my buttocks...anyone else on here ever heard of this in pregnancy? I was exposed to fifths disease and am not immune so kind of worried....noticed it was worse friday but no chance to call the doctor so will call Monday...they are not itchy which is odd...

Have not experienced that. Are you allergic to anything? I know when my cousin was pregnant she had splotches all on her face. I guess caused from hormones. With hives I would think allergic reaction.

Hey everyone wanted to check in....If you got sore boobs before you found out you were pregnant how early dpo was it? If you remember? Last cycle I did meds I had sore bb's at 2dpo...and all the way to AF so bad DH couldn't touch them.....now though they don't hurt at all does that mean my progesterone isn't high enough?? I'm now freaking out about my progesterone check in the morning...I've never been so freaked out my bb's ALWAYS hurt.....I wonder if I even truly ovulated I am sure I did with all the pain I had but....I duno Did anyone get preggo without sore bb's??? Just need some reassurance I suppose.....the doctor said this was our last Femara/Follistim cycle sooo if this is a bust its IVF next I'm sure of it

[PRAYIN4BABIES]

AFM, this bleeding thing is starting to take a toll on me... Today i went out for lunch to my fav place and all of a sudden I felt a gush coming out (luckily i was wearing a pad since my brown spotting hasn't stopped in 3 weeks).. I went to the bathroom to check and there was some red blood on it and I passed a small clot but after that no more bleeding... I know this is still from the clot but seeing blood freaks me out all the time.... I don't have an appointment for another 4 weeks but I might call on Monday to just inform them and see if they want to see me earlier!

Im sorry you are going through this big big to you.

 

[tiffttc]

Dont count yourself out iam hoping and praying that this is your month lots of baby dust to you

 

[almosthere]

Andrea no sore boobs for me not even the slightest bit still no noticable breast changes. And jenn what I have is not hives as it does not itch so no sure I will keep you updated with my situation tomorrow after speaking with my nurse!

 

[AndreaFlorida]

You ladies give me HOPE OMgoshhhhh I usually am DYING with my bb's being so sore before AF usually from 1dpo...but this cycle NOTHING but lots of cramping IM SO NERVOUS.....PRAYING TO GOD I finally might get my husband a baby of his own IM PRAYING SO HARD.....Thanks for all the answers!! Sorry I wasn't here when you wrote them I was watching Evan Almighty and crying for absolutely no reason....

Before you ladies replied I just knew this cycle was a bust I would and tell DH that I just know I'm not pregnant (which still may be true of course) but you ladies did make me feel a WHOLE lot better.....THANK YOU for saving my HOPES

 

[Jenn76]

Andrea: No sore boobs here either. Still not sore to this day. FX for you,

 

[MrsC8776]

completely OT but... i bought a foscam internet security cam. been putting off setting it up cause i heard it was complicated... omg sooo not true. thing works awesome. i wanted it as a baby monitor that i could access from work or my phone. $100, pan zoom audio etc.

Thats exactly what we were looking for before we got the cameras we have now. We wanted something hubby could watch in Afghanistan while in his room there so he could see the girls. We might still look into something.

I'm so sorry you are still dealing with the bleeding. I really hope it ends soon for you so that the worry can end. I do think you should call and at least let them know. At your last scan didn't they saw there was still an area that was bleeding and there was a clot? I hope thats what it was and there will be no more bleeding from now on.

Want I'm sorry you had this experience. Like you say the clot will be what you know about already but I understand the worrying must be really hard.

I worry constantly. I need to snap out of it. Sometimes I can almost freak myself out with worry but deep down I know everything is fine.

Pregnant with twins girls - when did you first feel the babies move?

Dr - that sounds awesome!!

Have a good day everyone. Pink xx

I actually felt movement very early. I just looked back and counted the weeks. I was 14 weeks when I first felt them. I think it all depends on what position they are in and things like that. I did officially feel them on the outside the last night. That was exciting! It will happen though and when it does it might take a few times for you to notice it.

want I am so sorry i hope you can get in this week!

I haven't had that or heard about it. It does sound like you might be allergic to something. I did notice that my skin became very sensitive once I did get pregnant. Are you using a new soap or laundry detergent?

All I had was very sore nips. Actually still do. It comes and goes but not really any sore bb's. Fx for your bfp! Everyone is different.

Thank you! We have got all the furniture. My husband works 6 weeks on and 6 weeks off out of country so we have to get things as soon as possible. It's all put together and the room is almost all set up. Now it's time to start buying clothes. I can pick that stuff out and get it home by myself of course. What about you? Have you started getting stuff yet?

Stinas~ How are you doing?

Not~ Will you be testing before tomorrow? Fx for you!!

Mo~ FET this week!!!

 

[azlissie]

Want, I'm so sorry you're still having bleeding. I hope this was the last of it and you can start to relax and enjoy the rest of your pregnancy!

Almost, I've never had bumps like you're describing but a friend of mine had something called PUPPP - she was covered in red blotches. I think hers was itchy though, so that might not be the same thing.

AFM, I'm feeling pretty positive about this cycle so far. I definitely had ov cramps yesterday so I know that the sperm was still alive and I'm hopeful that being on prednisone will help overcome any issues with my arthritis. I'm going to be so tempted to test on Thanksgiving because that would be such an amazing thing to be thankful for, but if it's bfn it will kind of ruin my day. So we'll see what happens!

 

[MoBaby]

Yes fet this week but I've had spotting (since Monday on and off and not everyday) so I have to call in the morning to make sure everything is okay to proceed. I did have the same thing when I was stimming last cycle and it was all cervical so maybe it's just that.. But I don't want to risk anything so I'm calling hopefully they won't cancel. ugh. If not one thing then another with all this stuff!

 

[AndreaFlorida]

Did anyone test out their trigger? What day did it go out and come back as a real positive....?? My blue handle tests were negative at 5dpt and this morning...took one tonight and its positive again....I duno if I wanna believe it of course...but something is up so thats why I'm asking just curious if its EVEN POSSIBLE to be real again...just odd how its gone 2 days then wham positive again....I duno....I'm probably crazy LOL

 

[MrsC8776]

I would give it at least 10 days... at least. Thats a safe number and it is semi close to the end of your tww. Those tests can be difficult to read sometimes. I used the wondfo and it never went fully negative.

Mo~ I remember you having spotting before. Hopefully it isn't a big deal but best to be safe and ask.

azlissie~ Yay for being positive! I'm excited for you!

 

[AndreaFlorida]

I'm using 2 types of tests so I guess we shall see thanks for the reply

 

[MoBaby]

Yes, andrea give it at least a week (you did 250 ovidrel, right??) but maybe even 10 days. Its too early for a pregnancy to show just yet as little bean wont implant until around 6dpo then 2 days of so for HCG to be secreted and reach urine and you are only still 5dpo. So I would give it just some more time It its darkening up after about 7-8dpo then Id say new

GL with your progesterone check tomorrow!

 

[almosthere]

Thanks for all the thoughts ladies-very anxious to find answers from my nurse tomorrow...

Hope all are well!!
