It took 5 failed IUIs and a failed IVF, but our FET worked!

3T Graduate Check-In!
Good morning, ladies! I see Amber is still on vacation, so I am posting another installment of our beloved check-in! I'm on the ball today. 
I hope all of you are doing well! I was just thinking yesterday how pregnant some of you are, if you know what I mean - time flies! Can't wait to meet our first 3T miracle baby in October!

Re: 3T Graduate Check-In!
Yaay! :::pulls up chair and bowl of popcorn::: I love Thursdays!
Good morning lovely ladies!
Here I am at 23 weeks. I had an OB appointment last Friday and everything is going well. I have a MFM appointment on Tuesday, which I'm so excited about. They let me the babies in 3D at every appointment. I'm at the point now where I see both doctors every 2 weeks, so I have an appointment every week. Just hoping that things continue to go as well as they have been.
Not sure if anyone lurks on the Multiples board, but Clayliover (a TTTC regular) is in need of T&P. Thanks. https://community.thebump.com/cs/ks/forums/thread/40771103.aspx
you look amazing! you are totally my cute baby bump idol
Looking great Omega! I am so happy to hear that everything is going well!
Sending Clayliover and her lo's lots of T&Ps.

I really do always appreciate your sweet comments.
Omega, you look amazing! I hope you're feeling well.
No real update from me. My NT scan is next week, so hopefully some good news next Thursday.
Sending tons of luck to all my 3T ladies! I've got everything crossed for you and hoping for a mass exodus soon. ((hugs))
Miss you all so so so much.

Hi ladies,
Omega, you look incredible! I'm so happy things are going well.
I don't have much to report, things seem to be going well. I have an appointment next Wednesday and I can't wait to see the babies again. I will be 10.5 weeks at the time of my appointment.
I have been lurking on 3T but avoiding the birth month boards and 1st tri. For some reason, those boards cause me major anxiety so for now it is best that I avoid them.
Good luck Ams, Reb, Jill and all the other lovely 3T ladies that have procedures coming up. I send T&Ps to you ladies daily.
Glad you're doing well. I can't believe you're almost 10 weeks!
I know what you mean, I hate 1st tri more then anything and can only tolerate my bmb in small doses. Too bad there isn't a 3T Graduates board!
Good luck next week!

I can't believe you are 11 and a half weeks! That is wonderful.
I'm happy to hear I'm not the only one who has issues with the pregnancy boards. I agree, a 3T graduate board would be great.
Hi ladies -- good luck to everyone having tests/procedures done in the upcoming days/weeks! I've been lurking and I'm rooting for you all!
Omega -- you look adorable as always!
Riley - Good luck with the NT scan next week, I'm glad everything is going well!
Sail - ITA with the 1st tri and bmb -- I took a bump break for awhile because it was getting a) annoying (some of the questions are tough to handle) and b) caused unneccessary anxiety, like you said.
Nothing new to update for me other than my pants are getting tight? haha. I have my first OB appointment tomorrow, so I'm anxious for that!
Good luck at your OB appt!!!!

Riley, Sail, SP, & Ocean - So glad things are moving along well for all of you! Yes, 1st tri is a nightmare. Are you ladies posting on PAIF at all? It's nice over there.
I'd also like to say GL to the ladies in the middle of IVF cycles (or any type of cycle). Gym, Rebelina, ams, beth, Jill, and anyone else I missed...hope things are going well. I'll be lurking for updates!
Hi Ladies! I hope you are all doing well. Good luck to those of you who have procedures coming up.
So glad to hear all is well with the grads! Omega, you are adorable as always and Riley I can't wait to see new pics of your Rocky! T&Ps sent to Clay.
Here's the bump at 25w5d. Only 1 week until 3rd tri-eek! Things are going well. I have my 1 hour glucose test a week from Tuesday. Other than that, nothing new.
Love the bump Mrs.J!!! You look so beautiful!

Hello ladies! Best of luck to all the 3T ladies. I am watching (every time I say that I think it sounds creepy but with love)!
I am 7 weeks today! We had our first peak last Friday. Things look good - we even got to see the HB. My RE didn't measure anything yet since it is early. We go back in about two more weeks for another u/s then if all is well we move on to my reg OB. I started with m/s two days ago and today it is in full force. I have not thrown up but SUPER nauseous most of the time.
I miss you ladies. My bmb is okay, 1st tri is stressful, but you ladies always center me. Take care!
You ladies looks so cute! Thank you for sharing.
I hope to join you gals soon!
I hope the m/s gets better soon! I am so glad you got to see the HB! That is exciting!

SAIF/PAIF Welcome
Lots of love and luck to my PAIF/3T/IF Veteran ladies, especially my dear friend Zookie. Congrats to Papps, Teach84 and Starbuck on their little ones.
Everyone looks adorable and I am so happy that you are all doing well.
I will def. keep Clayli in my prayers!
Riley: Good luck at your NT scan!!
FLgirl: Congrats on your little GIRL!!!
POF: I'm glad you're OK!!
Hugs to everyone else. I don't have a pic this week, my bump looks about the same. Nothing new has been going on around here and I am still battling "morning" sickness. I guess I'm gonna be one of those ladies who has it throughout her entire pregnancy. It's so worth it, though. 10 days until our big ultrasound!!!!

AAAHHHHH!!!!! POF! You look great love!
Okay, this is my first 3T Grad check in:)
I am finally feeling comfortable and may soon come out of lurking on some of the other boards!
Had 1st U/S today (saw yolk sac) looks good and looks as only one baby growing! Of course their is nothing to see but a black dot, it is currently 0.5mm (crazy, huh)! They printed pics but not much more to see. I thought it should show the pole as well, but they said not until at least 6 weeks. From my counting I should be 5weeks today, but remember were not sure what happened this cycle for O date, etc, but obviously we know what the result was:)
Labs Today showed: HCG 2755 and Progesterone 11 (they like above 10) but I am on endometrin and progesterone (both 2x/daily) and will continue at least thru 1st TRI!!
It was a great day, DH had a little tear as did I! I didn't sleep but maybe 2hrs last night despite going to bed early. This now is starting to feel real, however, I will admit, I will feel a lot better once I see the HB, etc. They said next week they expect to see the fetal pole, and possibly the HB but they should see by the 3rd U/S which is in 2 weeks. After that point probably be dc'd back to regular OB/Gyne service:)
Thanks for all the support you guys have provided and education, it really means alot to me, especially since this journey has only been discussed hear. I am sending lots of baby dust your way and hope to see the April board start filling with 3 T Grads, have a great week girls:)
