Soon to be 34 and feeling pressured, anyone else?!?!

[LeahMSta]

Well folks....this week may go down in history as the most exciting week ever! We were married yesterday in a beautiful ceremony and had a lovely time with our family and friends, we go to the Dr today to make sure that our little peanut is in the right spot, and my baby sister is being induced on Thursday and my new nephew will be here. I could just pop from all of the joy.

Great news all over the place, Leah!

Congrats again, Leah! So many wonderful things to celebrate!

(Any word on how the appointment went?)

Well we officially have our first set of betas. The numbers from the draw on Tuesday at 4pm are 474 and this morning at 9 she was at 797. Almost double in 41 hours. I was a bit worried about the numbers because of the fact that they weren't over 1000. However, after looking at her chart and seeing where she is at based on when we think she ovulated (which is cd20) she would only be 5+3 instead of 6+1. In that case they are text book perfect. We did not end up having our ultrasound on Tuesday. Since DW was not feeling any discomfort and the physical exam went so well, Dr felt that he should wait. So....I guess we will see that everything is fine on Wednesday morning instead. I am ok with that. DW bb are throbbing and heavy, she is queasy, and her emotions are EVERYWHERE. Therefore, I choose to believe that all is well.

Hi there ladies, it seems I lost A LOT of wonderful news..... Congrats to Leah and whoever else had news to share over my looooooong absence!!

Here s my update. End may I went through lap, dye and hysteroscopy. I hope I ll never go through it again. It was better than I thought but still not a nice experience. I was terrified. Results show no concerning stuff but they removed a polypse and some other yucky stuff.

Today I'm a day late, as I was recently getting ad after 26 days. However I m Not so hopeful as last week I was feeling very very stressed. But still I'm hoping its a good sign at the back of my mind. I'm terribly tired, ver drowsy and sometimes a little bit dizzyish... Anyways, if I don't get af s visit tomorrow I ll test on wed, if not i ll start procedures for iui ie chlomid then doc s visit. I just hope this is a good sign as it'd save me a lot of trouble. I ve also went off the antidepressants, let s hope everything falls into place correctly!


Btw, ignore the tickers they're far too out of date, I'm too lazy to do them now lol!

 

[ilovepiano]

OMG, day two, no AF sign, feeling extremely tired, like i swallowed a whole bottle of tranquillisers or something....! and i'm not sleeping well during the night, so that can be 1 of the causes, i just hope it's something else!

 

[timeforababy]

woo hoo! well done leah!!!!!!!

And yay for marriage!! so so happy you can get married


I popped in to say that I'm not pregnant and we now have to stop/pause. My job officially ends in December and I'm frantically hunting for a new one. Enhanced Mat leave entitlements don't kick in for a year after I start so I'm out. Maybe I'll be back after a year to see how it goes

Well done to everyone!

 

[ilovepiano]

Ok i gave in and tested, nopey nope.... BFN again. i wonder what's taking AF so long to appear though!! it's making me feel miserable!

 

[ilovepiano]

I'm stil AF-less. i'd like to know what's happening at the moment. 3 days late.... that's very unusual and i'm now one day over what is the normal 28 day cycle (lately it was being 26 that's why i'm saying 3 days late).

Hey, i'm talking to myself it seems. Anyone out there?? Lol!

and next month i'll turn 35... EEEEEKKKK!!

 

[LeahMSta]

I'm here piano!!!! Fx for a sneaky BFP.

We had our ultrasound today. Our little blueberry is just where he/she should be. We got to see the flicker of the heartbeat and fell in love immediately. We are gestationally just a few days behind (duh...We ovulated CD20) but not enough that they moved our due date for now. There will be another look-see next month. I am absolutely on
Without further ado, meet our little piglet

 

[ilovepiano]

AAAAh Leah!! i can't wait to see that little flicker as well, if it ever happens.

4th day without any AF signs, keeping fingers and anything i can cross, crossed!!

If there's no sign by today, i'll buy tests and do one tomorrow. If that's the case i hope i will sleep!

 

[joeys3453]

She is beautiful (holly crap, I said SHE) I guess I'm hoping it's a girl. And how is your wife doing, how is she feeling?

AFM, Had my IVF injections lesson today, I begin shots tomorrow. Yay, lucky me. I hope to have US pics of my embabies soon too so I can share with you.....yes, i'm hoping for multiples! Bring em on!

JOEYS - you look beautiful too! I hope you are feeling as good as you look.

JOEYS - you look beautiful too! I hope you are feeling as good as you look.

Piano - i am so sorry! hang in there girl it will get easier!

adroplet - What meds are you doing for IVF? Did you do the inj yet or are you doing them at night? Good luck with it! remember not to stress!! OH thank you i feel pretty good besides my rib staying out and never going back in. Babies were sure a moving last night HD finally got to feel the little softballs they feel like when they move!

 

[adroplet]

Well, I will start Lupron tonight then start Menopur and Gonal F in about 8 days. I have my us next Tues to see how many follies we may be working with. My last us, from the day before I started BCPs, showed 6 follies on each side.
I've done the Menopur shots before, when I was doing my IUIs. The thing is I can't give them to myself. I start hyperventilating and sweating, I just can't do it! So my partner will be giving them. It will help relieve my stress and make her feel more involved in the IVF process too.

piano how are you doing?

adroplet - how are the meds going? don't worry when we did our menopur shots during IVF hd had to do them for me especially the progesterone oil ones in the bum so don't worry i couldn't do it either.
