    Hi ladies! I'm 16wks1day today and still getting sick a couple times a day, but as long as the baby is ok, I'm ok :) Anatomy scan is in 3 weeks and we're really excited to see the baby again! We've picked out the nursery color and hoping to start painting next week. We won't be going on any special trip before the baby comes. I'm still paying off my IVF related bills and we're trying to save up for when he or she arrives. I still lurk the IF board to see how you ladies are doing, I'm rooting for all of you!

  • A little late to respond, but I am 37 weeks, and I remember reading women saying that when I was on this board & can't believe that I am saying it.  Sometimes you can't take the IF out of the girl!  But, I am feeling well & hoping I go overdue (I'd like a little more time with this baby inside of me before outside!).

    Babymoon - DH and I went on one only because it was free (it was through work & we went with others from his company).  It was FABULOUS!  We hadn't done a single big trip or vacation throughout our entire IF journey, so we enjoyed every second of it!

    My TTC Journey:
    Dx: Hypothalamic amenorrhea / mild PCOS (Pretty much a hormone/ovulatory disorder)
    Progesterone to induce period w/ the goal of Clomid - never got period (September 2011). Referred to RE.
    Femera - never responded to the meds (December 2011)
    Clomid with TI - BFN (February 2012)
    Injectables (Menopur) - hyperstimulated/canceled (March 2012)
    Injectables #2 (Menopur) with TI- BFN (May 2012)
    IVF - OHSS (transfer canceled), but 11 frozen! (June 1012)
    FET - 1 transferred on 8/09/12. Beta#1 (11dp5dt): 350.3; Beta#2: 365; Beta#3: 157. Biochemical pregnancy.
    FET # 2 - 1 transferred on 11/01/12. Beta#1 (11dp5dt): 337; Beta#2: 769. BFP!!! 1st ultrasound 11/28/12 showed heartbeat, but measuring 5 days behind. 2nd ultrasound 12/05/12 - miscarriage.
    FET # 3 - 1 transferred on 1/24/13. Beta#1 (11dp5dt): BFN.
    FET # 4 - 2 transferred on 3/21/13.  Bet #1 (11dp5dt): 660; Beta#2: 1,300.  Miscarried at home @ 6 weeks.

    FET # 5 - 2 transferred on 7/12/13.  Beta #1 (10dp6dt): BFN.
    Attempted an IUI in late August 2013, but didn't respond well.
    IVF #2 with PGS - Stims started 10/28 with retrieval on 11/11.  Of 14 mature eggs, 10 fertilized, 4 made it to Day 5 & 1 made it to Day 6. We did PGS on the Day 5 embryos, and 3 of 4 were normal. Had ET on 11/17. Beta #1 (8dp6dt): 203. Beta #2 (10dp6dt): 618. We since had two ultrasounds & on 12/19, our RE released us to the OB.  On 1/02/14, we had our first ultrasound with the OB where we heard the heartbeat.  We are so thankful for the blessing & crossing every finger & toe for a healthy & successful pregnancy.

    Hi ladies! I am cheering you all on!
    IF is one of my favorite boards on here (next to PAIF) as you are all so supportive and wonderful!

    I am 13w2d- so close to second tri!
    DH and I actually had a vacation planned to Aruba next month. It is our 5 year anniversary and has turned into our babymoon! I will be 16/17 weeks when we go and I am looking forward to a relaxing week!

    I posted my 'bump' or lack there of- at 13 weeks. I looked more pregnant after my ER than I do now!

    Keep positive ladies! Thinking of you!
