Looking for June 2012 IVF Buddies

[wana b a mom]

Hi Wana. I'm in the same boat with the lack of sleep. No problem getting to sleep but I toss all night, usually up at 4:30 and can't get back to sleep. Everyone keeps telling me how tired I look. Good luck next week, I'm sure everything will be fine.

Yes, I did have my 12 weeks checkup today actually which included NT testing. U/S looked good, HB was good and it actually looks human now with a nose and very wiggly. They took 5 tubes of blood! I go back in 4 weeks for an early glucose test. Dr agreed to fill out FMLA paperwork for me so I could take time off for appnts but she said I don't qualify for a leave of absence just yet. Guess I'll have to tough it out in the stupid place I call work.

that's great! did you get a picture? I'm sure it was exciting!!
what do you do for work?

I did get pics, will be changing my profile pic later to one of them.

I'm in mortgages at a very big bank. They were not thrilled today when I told them I will not work over time anymore.

MS started this morning, lucky me.

So happy for you roxane!!! I love when you can see them wiggle.

So finally, here is pictures of my lil angle at 9 weeks! Heads down I know, it's kinda wierd, but dr said it is totally fine, so ok!! lol

I'm ordering my doppler today, can't wait to get it!!!!

Wana, it's your scan today! YAY!!! Can't wait to see pictures!! GL xo

 

[wana b a mom]

OMG Roxane, that is soooooo cute!!!! he looks so comfy in there! how are you feeling?

I just came back from my scan, it is confirmed, we are having twins!! strong hb: 168 and 166. I'm so happy and relieved! I have to go back to see the doctor at 9:30 am. I'll get my pictures then.

 

[roxane1986]

ohhh!!! YAYY!!!! How exciting twins!! And very good HB!!! Soooo happy for you hun!! xoxo Can't wait to see the pictures!!

I am feeling not too bad, I don't mind the symptoms so that's why hehe!! I have a little bit more nausea now, Saturday Iwas eating breakfast and all of a sudden, I had to run to the bathroom, tied my hair and everything, thought I was gonna be sick, but it went away!! I havnt been sick once, but have some nausea alot after I eat or before, it's wierd! Last night, I didnt sleep too good, I had massive heartburns!! Still very tired and that's about it! Oh and still always hungry!

You?

 

[wana b a mom]

omg, on Saturday after I ate breakfast I got so sick... it was so bad I had to stay in bed all day. I felt horrible. I also had a really bad headache since Friday, but when i got sick on Saturday it even got worse... I couldn't hold anything down... I was able to eat a little bread around 5:00 pm. Then on Sunday I was feeling so much better, just the usual nausea but nothing bad... so strange. Amazing how as bad as I feel I keep telling DH: don't worry, I don't care if I'm sick, as long as the little ones are ok... I'm the same as you, I really don't mind.
Have to run to see the doctor, I will update later!

TWINS? Holy cow!!! I wondered with those fantastic beta numbers if you had more than one bun in the oven. Congrats!!

 

[wana b a mom]

thanks!!

 

[wana b a mom]

girls, has any of you noticed brownish/sort of pinkish spotting after an ultra sound? I'm kind of worried

 

[roxane1986]

dont' worry.. did they do an internal u/s? Cause I've read that you could have some spotting after intercourse, so maybe its the same for internal u/s!! If you worry, ask your dr.. but hun, you saw your babies this morning and they were fine, if there was something wrong the bleeding wouldnt start right away!!

 

[roxane1986]

Do you have pictures???

 

[wana b a mom]

yes, it was an internal us, it is not a whole lot of spotting, I just noticed when I wiped off after going to pee... I was reading on the internet and they say spotting is normal, so as long as it's not a lot and/or blood, I'll try to stay calm
yes, they gave me pictures, but I really think they aren't great, so I don't even know if it's worth to post them... I'll try to scan them in a bit.
I have my OBGYN appointment next Tuesday! maybe I'll get another us and maybe a better picture

 

[roxane1986]

Yes, try to stay calm, spotting is fine and even bleeding!! My best friend actually had alloooottt of bleeding during her pregnancy until I think 3-4 months and she has her baby boy now so it's ok! But I know how you feel, it's so hard not to worry!

I wanna see the pictures!! PLEASE!!! I'm sure it's fine, your still early so it's normal to not see much!!

 

[Lindylou]

Yay Roxane for head standing wriggler!! Xx

Wannabe- fabulous little twins! Xx

How are you doing hockey? Xxx
