Intro!!

in Pregnant after 35

Hi all:

My name's Dawn and I'm 41.  I actually intro'd here almost a year ago but unfortunately that pregnancy wasn't meant to be.  I'm hoping this one sticks and keeps me here!  MH and I finally got a positive beta last week for IVF #2.  This will be the first child(ren) for both of us.

Our first beta was 107 last Thursday.  My 2nd beta isn't until tomorrow... it has been a long week but I've used lots of Wondfos to keep my sanity and it seems I'm still pregnant :)  Then my u/s will be the week of 1/14.  We are very curious to see if there is more than 1 as we put in 5 embryos!!  I'm really hoping that no more than two stuck.  5 was the maximum recommended for my age and with our previously failed IVF with 3 embryos, my RE wanted to be aggressive.

I'm 5w1d today and our EDD is 9/4!

Looking forward to getting to know you all!!

Surprise non-assisted BFP - 12.29.2014, Beta 1 = 322, Beta 2 = 760

IVF #1 - ER 06/13/12 - 9 Eggs Retrieved - 4 ICSI'd - only 2 fert. 06/15/12 - 2DT - 3 cell & 6 cell with fragmentation. Beta 06/29/12 - IVF #1 = BFN. 07/20/12 - WTF Appt -Told by our RE to quit IVF. Second Opinion from RE is good. IVF#2 - November 2012. Estradiol Pills Started 11/6. Stims start 11/16. ER 11/26 - 7 eggs retrieved - all mature. 4 fertilized with ICSI. ET 11/29 Transferred 3 embryos. Beta is 12/10. 1st Beta 81 2nd Beta 160 and 3rd beta 360!!! First U/S 12/21/12 - We saw one beautiful gest. sac. 2nd U/S is 01/04/2013 - H/B 183 02/05/13 - NT Scan - everything looks good and IT'S A BOY!  Aiden was born 08/20/2013.

    IVF #2 is in progress.  ER was 05/12/14 - 11 eggs retrieved, 8 fertilized with ICSI.  ET was 05/15/14 - we transferred 3 embryos as we did on the cycle my son was conceived.  We were able to freeze 3 embryos. Beta is scheduled for 05/26/14.  1st beta - 111.  2nd beta - 159 didn't double :( 3rd beta Friday 5/30) - not a lot of hope left. Beta # 3 is 247 - probably ectopic.  Beta # 4 is 813 - possibly vanishing multiple sydrome?  06/05/14 - 5w4days - first U/S - we see a gestational sac and yolk - still have hope!  06/17/14 - 7w1day - U/S and saw and heard the heartbeat - Finally!  06/27/14 - 8w4days - Baby and heartbeat look and sound great :)  EDD 02/01/14 and It's a boy!
