Success after IF

Ahh...I told my Dad...

First, he did not believe me. He thought I was making it up. He said I did not think I would be able to get pregnant again. I never told anyone that so I am not sure why my entire family seems to believe that I was completely incapable of bearing children...but of well! Then he was very concerned about my health as I had severe pre-e, he had IUGR and was in and out of the hospital with DS. He offered to come live with us at the end of my pregnancy (concerned about my health due to the high bp/pre-e) and during the first few months after the baby was born. I thought that was sweet.

  • I have only told parents and a couple of my co-workers.  I am not "out' to the rest of the world, on facebook or to my boss yet. I'm waiting until after the NT scan for that.

  • @TJ1979 - I just read your post about your nt scan... I am having mine on the 8th and I thought you were quite a bit further along than me...but maybe that is in my head.  What is your due date?

  • My due date is 5/15, they scheduled my NT for the very last minute. It was a huge drama that included me fighting with the nurse over how many weeks I was and her being a total witch. And then the u/s tech is out all next week so I'm getting my scan at 13w4d with the cutoff for the scan being 13w6d. I'm not happy.

  • @TJ1979 - I'm so sorry you had to go through that!  What a pain!!!  I guess you are about a week further along than me...for some reason I thought it was more.  I am due 5/21, but I will be scheduled for a RCS at 39 weeks...if I'm lucky.  If I get pre-e again, they won't let me go past 37 weeks.
