    Baby N conceived after 1 miscarriage and more than 2 years of TTC. Diagnosis was low sperm count. We found success after 3 months of anastrozole to increase DH's testosterone and one IUI.

  • Yes I had IVF and feel the same way. We had an IUI and two IVF cycles (BFP on 2nd IVF)  So happy to finally be pg but nervous at every symptom (lack of) and cannot wait for my U/S next week!.  I think it is totally normal. 

    Congrats!

  • Yes, ours is an IVF conception.  My husband and I both feel like we've been through an exhausting couple of years.  Like you describe, now that there's finally good news, we keep waiting for the other shoe to drop.  Wow, I can't imagine having gone through it for 7 years... congrats!!

  • Hi congrats! I too had IVF. Hubby and I got lucky and got a BFP with our first cycle. I'm 7w4d, saw babies heartbeat and was released by my RE yesterday. So excited but also scared. Wishing you a HH 9 months.
  • FYI, there is another board on here called Pregnant After Infertility. Lots of support available there.

  • IVF baby here as well.  We tried for 6 years, had 4 IUIs and one round of a fresh IVF cycle.  One was hard enough so I cannot imagine how you managed four.  Congrats to you!  

    I think our emotions stem from the constant disappointment for years.  Our brains are not prepared for success and so we are just in shock.  I think I am slowly getting more excited and less concerned that someone is playing a cruel joke on me.  For me, each u/s made it more real.  I just heard the heartbeat today and got released to my OB.  

    I hope you continue to have great news! 

    IVF#1 in March 2013.  BFP!  Due date 12/11/13.

    Also, I just want to say really quick, don't get too worried about it if you do have a little spotting or a couple cramps. Remember that your uterus is just growing to accommodate your little one. It's something that the nurses from my RE office tell me every time I call, even though I call for a different reason! I really hope this pregnancy goes well for you! Congrats!


    Wish i had seen this last night! Cried myself to sleep thinking i had miscarried as had bled a little. Devastated doesnt even come close! .... So is this normal? Do i still have hope? Woke up this morning and there was no more. .... After what my body has but me through over last 7 years it wouldnt suprise me.... Ive had OHSS from ivf which nearly killed me, cancer cells removed after 4 borderline/positive smears etc etc ...... Please give me a break body and let me be a mummy ... Please xxx
