    Hi ladies. I lurk all the time still; rooting everyone on, especially those going through IVF right now.

     

    I am doing very well. 30 weeks finally! Started on  baby's room which has been fun. My shower is not until 36 weeks, so have awhile before then & need to not buy stuff off my registry which has been hard! My GD diet has been going very well & my numbers have all been good/controlled by diet alone so far, so I am thankful for that. I have a lot of growth ultrasounds because of the GD, so it is nice getting to see him a lot more than "normal. '


    04/07/11- PCOS Diagnosis w/GYN. Put on Metformin (1500 mgs)
    04/25/11- 1st consultation with RE (Confirmed PCOS & Anovulation)
    05/09/11-HSG-All clear! 05/13/11-SA-Normal. Found out on 2/14/12, low Morph (1%).
    06/17/11-10 days of Clomid (100, 150) No response.
    07/10/11-03/20/12- 5 Injectable (Follistim) IUI cycles; 4 BFN, 1 C/P. (stims ranged from 11 days to 25 days)
    05/28/12-Diagnosed with Hypothyroidism. 75 mcg Synthroid.

    IVF with ICSI in June/July 2013 = BFP!. Beta # 1 = 123. Beta # 2 = 252. Due March 25th. Baby boy arrived March 27, 2013!

    FET #1 - 10/4/14 = BFP!! Beta #1 = 179. Beta # 2 = 499. Due June 22nd.

    Hi ladies! Hope you are all doing well. Lurking and rooting for you all! xoxo

    We are doing great! Had my shower on Saturday and am still in shock :) Got to see the little miss yesterday and saw her practicing breathing! I go for weekly NSTs now and we couldnt get her on the monitor so I ended up with a BPP and was very happy to see her, as was DH. She is head down with her face smashed up against my ute. That explains a lot! Stick out tongue I have an OB appointment today where I hope to find out our future plans. Not sure if this practice does inductions because of GD or what happens next. Cant believe she will be here soon!

    Here is a pic of me sporting my beautiful hat made by my goddaughter and her sister lolimage

    I feel like I'm all over the place today with this picture of my little blueberry, but we just had our 1st u/s this morning and we have one baby with a healthy heartbeat, measuring at 7w1d :)  I'm doing well - my symptoms have been pretty minor, although I think my RE was already worried about my weight... *sigh*  I'll try to get my eating under control but there are some days I can't eat anything and other days I want to eat everything in sight.  Plus I've gone from a fairly low carb diet to really ONLY wanting carbs.  :)

    Anyway... here's the babe :)

    Hello ladies!  Still lurking over here and cheering you all on!

    I'm about 14 and a half weeks today and doing well.  Past the yuck of the first trimester and now feeling basically like myself, only hungry all the time.  Both twins are doing great.  We have our next appointment on February 1st and I am hoping we can find out genders then (and see if my strong girl/girl feeling is right).  Beyond that, we are wading through the stress that is looking at daycare's and interviewing nannies and trying to make the right decision (gah!).   

    TTC #1 since 2/2011. Me: Age 36. Stage III Endo and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis.
    IUI #1 March: BFN, IUI #2 April: BFN.
    IVF #1: Started stims 7/30--CANCELLED.
    IVF #1.2: Stims start 10/8/12, ER: 10/20/12; 11R/8M/4F, 5DT: 10/25/12, transfer of a 4AA and 3AB Blast. BFP on HPT 10/31/12; Beta #1: (16 DPO) 954! Beta #2: (18 DPO) 1968! First U/S: TWINS!! A/S: TWO BOYS! EDD: 7/13/13

    Hi ladies!!  I'm always rooting for you all to get your BFP's soon!

    Nothing really new with me....just keeping the little bean in as long as possible.  Having some major cramps everyday, but according to the nurses, that is fine for now.

    Hi ladies! I just wanted to pop by and say hello and let you know that I still lurk all the time and am always rooting for you!!

    Update on me: I am 14w2d today and finally feeling like myself again, pretty much all symptoms are manageable at this point. We had our NT scan and everything came back normal. Today I got to hear baby's hb on the doppler for the first time! He/she is a mover so we always have a hard time finding the hb. We are going to be finding out the sex in a little over a week and I can't wait! I'm thinking pink but we will see...

     Here is pic of our most recent u/s (from the NT scan). Again, not the best pic since baby was wiggling around but the head is on the left side and it is laying on it's back looking upwards.

    Hi everyone! We had our first u/s yesterday and currently have a beautiful blob! Bloodwork looks great and once we get a heartbeat, I will be able to drop the endometrium to just once a day.  We head back Monday for another u/s and bw. I am feeling great so far. Boobs have grown a cup size and I'm starving all the time! I will take it over puking any day.  Good luck to everyone cycling this month!

    Hi ladies!!

    I'm just counting the minutes until my first u/s on Thursday.  I haven't felt too much in the way of symptoms, so I'm pretty anxious. I'm POAS every now and again, and according to that, I'm still pregnant!

    I still lurk often and am rooting for all of you!  Hope to see you on PAIF soon!
