morning ladies,

cute pics puppy! yay for the potty!!

hopeful - happy 18 weeks!!! congrats on the boy/girl combo sounds perfect!

fili - glad you have a plan in place! i do have a strong feeling that this next pregnancy will work out for you anyway, even without the PGD, i just have that feeling! but glad you have both agreed to a plan moving forward and im excited for you! your eggs are gonna be just fine!

amazing bump heart! super cute!

mom2 - did you read my posts a few days ago. exactly the same has happened with me. as the other girls have said once you are close to 6 weeks your HCG stops doubling, the increase slows down and eventually plateaus! they dont really recommend bloods at this stage as a scan is more accurate but your numbers are COMPLETELY fine! please dont worry! can you maybe get a scan to try and reassure you?

AFM - nothing much going on my end, just waiting for my scan on friday xx
 
Hiya bumps, everything crossed for Friday for you!
I am petrified about the ivf! But think it's the best plan...
 
morning

Fili - dont be petrified about ivf, have you had it before? I didnt find it as bad as i thought it may be. x
 
Thanks Lou, no I've never had it before. Were you successful first time? You know those early cycle day hormone tests they do, can they be done on day 5 instead of day 3 as I'm going to be away and dont want to wait another month. My af is going to start today as my cramps are so bad but really I need it to start on thurs! We will be in vegas you see. Bad timing. :brat:

Anyone ever get spots and quite a lot at random times of before af? Worried I have too much testosterone now!

We were successful first time but it sadly ended as a MC at 7 weeks - but it was down to my problem (why we needed IVF to start) which was I have immature eggs and thats why i always MC they were never great quality, but this pg it was the month after ivf using accupuncture that I think helped the quality of my eggs to stick. Im not 100% sure if you can wait the extra days - hope af shows up in time!
 
Hey ladies how are you all??

Im tiered a certain little lady thinks 2am is now play time! little madam!!
 
oh the joys of seeing 2am :wacko::wacko: lol before this pregnancy id only see 2am on my way in from a night out :haha:
 
Thanks for the info Lou and you've obviously been through a lot, I can't imagine all that was easy :hugs: but it's obviously so worth it to get your little boy! :cloud9: I am in a race against time! I've just booked my blood tests with the fertility clinic. As soon as I land in heathrow after a 10 hour flight on 30 march, banking on no delays, I have to trek across to london bridge to the clinic. This all being if my period starts TOMORROW!! The maximum day is day 4 according to the nurse. I've got such cramps though I'll be lucky. Do you think if it starts at midnight that is classed as tomorrow too? Cant beleive that after a month of wanting my period to start now I don't :dohh::dohh:
Then I've booked everything else, the follow up with the doctor about my test results which will be stressful and then hopefully he writes us a treatment plan from there. So by my calculations we will be starting ivf on 24th April. Lou did you have a follow up appointment to discuss your hormone tests etc? Was it stressful?

i think if af starts now youd have to count day 1 as tomorrow. Yer we had a follow up appointment after, Im not sure if i was lucky with my clinic but i found it all quite relaxed - well as relaxed as IVF can be:wacko: Just be sure if you are on long protocol and down regging to eat lots of fibre as i got such bad constipation i didnt go to the loo for over a week and ended up with piles :wacko:

Oh the joys us women go through to get what others seem to get so easily!
 
I know I'm going to be on the short protocol but I have no idea what that means. :wacko: which clinic were you at if you don't mind me asking
 
Day 2 of no morning sickness...starting to get that bad feeling that something is wrong :-( My morning sickness dissapeared last miscarriage right before the 6 week mark. Feeling pretty down today now, hopefully later today or tomorrow I'll get something!

Oh, hun. :hugs: I'm sure everything will be fine, maybe your body is just giving you a break? We all know in our heads that symptoms aren't a good tool for predicting miscarriage, but that doesn't really work for our emotions does it?
 
And you saw a healthy heartbeat just a few days ago! Your baby looked great at that ultrasound, I'm sure LO is just fine! :flower:
 
Thanks for all the support, ladies. I know the cramping and the numbers could all be perfectly normal. I guess after 3 losses its hard to truly believe that.
Well, one pregnancy freakout down, 99,999 to go. :haha:
 
Sorry for selfish post ladies but I'm so scared :( been to see Midwife who tested urine and ++ ketones. She asked GP who is referring me to our local hospital (well, acute hospital about 30mins away) for IV fluids :cry: I do feel awful and I know it'll help but :cry:

Please pray for me x
 
Puppy - def praying for you! Hope everything will be okay shortly!

Thanks mom2 - Yeah, it's easy to believe that so and so can have no symptoms or slow rising hcg and smoke crack while binge drinking and still have a healthy pregnancy but when it comes to myself, I just can't imagine....so we've both had our freakout, maybe things will look up now?? FYI - I'm cramping too!
