Success after IF

Bad news again today=(

And the roller coaster ride continues. There is now a 40% discordance with the babies. Baby A (Savannah) weighs 4 lbs 9 oz and baby B (Cali) weighs 2 lbs 11 oz. She only gained 2 oz again=(

This is getting so hard.

  • I'm sorry :(

    Is 2oz enough for them to let her keep cooking for a bit longer?  Some growth is better than none right?

    ((HUGS)))

  • I am so sorry :( Like pp said you are so close to your goal. I am so sorry that this has been such a rollercoaster. Please take care!!
    It took over four years to be diagnosed with PCOS. We TTC #1 for 18 months, did 5 rounds of Clomid and finally moved onto IVF...which worked! Throughout our IF journey, we suffered 3 miscarriages. We conceived both DD and DS without treatment.

  • Let me tell you what I see - an online IF/twins pal STILL pg w/ twins.  I went away for a 25 day vacation (nothing glam; mostly time spent w/ family) and when I came back I found you still belly side up :)!!!

     I'm sure the bedrest and these continual valleys have you really down BUT my friend, in the end all these peaks and valleys create the most glorious landscape (today, I was consoling Max and Luke climbed into my lap - I thought for equal attention - but then he started patting Max on the back).  These future memories will be that much more special due to your rollercoaster ride.

     Hang in there!

  • Dearest Savannah,

    Please share with your sister. You can't start out a good sister relationship by not sharing. Cali may just been more fiesty that what you will be able to handle once you two get on the outside.

    Love,

    Maya's mom

    Babbs.... I hope they'll let you keep cooking for (at the very least) a few more days. (((HUGS)))

    I hate that you have to find out crappy stuff this then on top of it you have to sit around and wait all day to find out what it means :( I hope the peri comes by soon...

    It's gonna be ok though babbs... you and those babies have held on for so long and done such a good job!  They are old enough now that they can come into the world and be safe... they'll be itty bitty but definitely safe.  And once they're here you can start to fatten those girlies up with milk!!! 

    ***

    Remember this: if they let you eat you're in the clear (no surgery) for at least today :)

    ((HUGS))
