Summer Sensations! (due May/June 2013)

[Christie2011]

I take my prenatals just as I get into bed for the night. I haven't had a problem with them.

I couldn't even make a decision if you asked me if I want a boy or girl, I just want a happy, healthy baby.

Looks like week 7 is blueberry week. I can't wait.

Hi ladies!

I'm on a few threads with MissAnnabelle and Snowflakes and I'd like to join this one as I just got my last week after my first IVF cycle.

DH: 30
Married since June 2010
TTC#1 since June 2011
1st IVF (w/ICSI) in Sept. 2010 - 5dt: 1 blast and 1 morula - on Oct. 5. Beta #1: 288, Beta #2: 725, just did Beta #3 today.
EDD: June 13, 2013
Symptoms so far: minor cramps and twinges and occasional AF-like cramps, super tired, peeing a lot and in the middle of the night, waking up super early sometimes, sore boobs and large nipples and a bit queasy.
Cravings: Salty, sweet and sour things! Also carb-things with cheese - pizza, grilled cheese, mac and cheese, etc. Want so bad to eat healthy!

Thank you, GettingBroody! Congrats to you, too! I was waking up to pee around 2 a.m. and then around 4-5 a.m., but I was having trouble getting back to sleep after the 5 a.m. one. It probably was excitement! I've been better about it the last few days though!

Grrr trying to get this multi quote thing to work but just cant seem to.

So thank you all for your reply. MrsA I always thought that there was meant to be three bloods done, how are you feeling?

Getting - Thank you and I wish scan was today but mine is still a week away and I have my hospital appointment with my specialist next Tuesday.

SignoraL - Welcome, you will find this to be very great and supportive group of lady's

[PRAYIN4BABIES]

Welcome Signora and Jadey!!!!!!!!

 

[MissAnnabelle]

Hey Signora!!

 

[almosthere]

welcome signora and jadey!

I go in for my scan tomorrow, and yess, yay for being a blueberry tomorrow as well!! hehe

hope all are well my throat is WAY better today, hoping it is finally healing up!!

 

[Christie2011]

I scheduled my first appointment with a regular OBGYN. My clinic told me to go ahead and get on the books since it usually takes a month, but they got me in right away. So I have my last scan with the clinic on the 22nd and then my first OB appointment on the 29th.

Still not really feeling any symptoms. Unless you count the need to eat something small every few hours.

Welcome to the newbies!

 

[almosthere]

be lucky you dont have much symptoms christie!! although I understand how feeling more pregnant may ease your mind!! I almost threw up changing a diaper-poor little baby girl had gotten sick and it smelt extra bad for me I almost had to yell out for help!! ahh!! glad it ended better than I thought it would! anywho-I am starting to get super nervous for my scan tomorrow...assuming it is transvag...but really nervous I hope I hear babies heartbeat!!

 

[raelynn]

almost - I'm nervous for mine tomorrow too! Just hoping everything is how it should be!

 

[stevies_girls]

Just found out my pregnant might be twins due June 10th super excited

 

[GettingBroody]

Welcome Jadey! I'll add your EDD to the front page!

Stevies_girls - welcome to you too! Why do you think it might be twins? Did you do ivf? Will add you to the front page also!

Almost - glad your throat is so much better!! Good luck today! I doubt you'll get to hear the heartbeat at this stage but you should be able to see it... Happy Blueberry Week!

Rae - good luck to you today too!! Can't wait for your update!

Christie - yay for booking OB apt!!

Just wondering, were any of you going for acu before your bfps? If so, are you still going now? I'm still going once a week but it's expensive... (€50 a session, not totally extravagant but it all adds up...) Wondering if I should be stopping and saving the money for baby things!!

 

[TwoRdue]

Getting - I only did acupuncture on the day of transfer and as the person that did it is in the same city as as where the fet was and not where I live I did not continue after my bfp as I don't trust anyone else to do it considering the risk.
How is it going for you?

 

[Christie2011]

I had thought about it, but the ac that was in the same building as my clinic is $100 a session and they recommended 2 sessions on day of transfer (one before and one after), so I didn't do it. I've also never been to an ac so I wasn't sure how my body would react and didn't want to chance it that I'd be weird and it would stress my body out too much.

And I think I found a symptom! My areolas are getting larger! That's a symptom I can happily live with if I happen to never get ms!

Welcome Becky and congrats

I had my 2nd beta today, I feel so anxious for these results, which I should have this evening.
Wow does the worry ever end I guess not.

Forum acronym lists - The first one is quite extensive and probably has more than you'll see in these forums. The second one is probably more like what you will see around here.
