Hello girls!! I stalk regularly, I'm cheering on you all, hugs to those who need them. Everything is going well over here, I am finally just over half way. Below is my 21 week bump. As for a babymoon, I am dying to go on one but DH is not really feeling it, so we probably won't take one, but I encourage anyone who can take one, totally should!

27 weeks with an active little one. We combined a babymoon with a trip to my family for our shower.

Hi Ladies!!! Lurking and cheering for all of you! My first OB appt was Tue at 9 weeks 1 day. My OB was nice enough to give me a quick peek of the babies and everything looked good. ( I was really spoiled with my weekly detailed U/S's with the RE). I am considered high risk due to my age (35) and being pregnant with twins, so I will also see a MFM. I go to the MFM for my next U/S (NT Scan) at 12 weeks . I go back to my OB Aug 5th. It is going to be weird not going to the Dr so frequently.

My twin girls are 4 months now. There was no babymoon for us. I was too exhausted. Still checking this board and rooting you all on!

Hi girls! I can't believe tomorrow I am entering my second trimester. We booked a trip to punta Cana before our last cycle so now it is becoming a baby moon. We are going in August which will also celebrate my 30th birthday! I do sometimes feel guilty to spend the money (it's on a credit card) but we put everything on hold for two years and who knows when we will be able to do it again! Yolo! Cheering you all on! Don't give up!

Hi Ladies - 

I am now 12 weeks - holy crap!  It is scary and exciting that we are almost through the first trimester.  We are waiting for our Panorama test results (we did the full/extended panel).  Fingers crossed that everything comes back normal!!!

I am feeling ok - nausea is starting to ease, fatigue is still here though - and colace and prune juice have become my friends!

I think of you all so often, and am so thankful to have been part of such a wonderful and supportive community - I don't know what I would have done without all of you.  I am hoping to see all of you over on PAIF very soon!

I'm still lurking over here... 8 weeks and we saw the heartbeat a second time, so I'm happy! 

Babymoon: we just so happened to schedule a vacation to Italy in September, when I'll be about 18 weeks. It wasn't intended to be a babymoon, it was an "FUIF, I'll schedule vacations if I want to" but we were fortunate that it's working out to be our last big vacation.

Hey ladies,

Now in 2nd tri.  We went on a cruise right after our BFP.  We celebrated our 5 years anniversary and also knew we needed a vacation whether we got a BFN or BFP after everything we went through.  IVF was rough, especially when ER was during finals week in grad school + work lol.  I was dying for a vacation!  We booked before we knew whether it would be positive or negative. 

So I guess that was our baby moon.  Our weekends now are spent getting house ready for baby, got deck done, finished side garden, next project is painting baby room! 

Miss you guys and think of all of you often.  Keep in touch and sending lots of good vibes to all of you!!!!!!

I'm doing good, just tired of the PIO injections, there are now knots on my backside. I've had bouts of nausea, fuller breasts and already don't fit into my clothes. I still cannot believe both embryos stuck, it makes me very emotional still that FET worked. Only downside, I hate drinking water, I never drank any before, brand doesn't matter, it's all yuck to me but I've forced myself to drink it. I'm really excited about my growing belly, ultrasound tomorrow again - I've been going twice a week.

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!

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!

I chose he'll yeah now granted we had our trip planned before but if we hadn't we would have still gone somewhere. When I was 6 weeks we went to London and paris. I'm so glad we got the experience before our little man arrives. I say if you can afford it..do it!!
