First cold :(

Mrs.AmyDylanMrs.AmyDylan member
in Success after IF
Poor J has her first cold. It started Friday night with a low-grade fever and congestion. Thank goodness she still nurses because she won't eat food or bottle.

I know I'm so lucky that this is only her first cold (she is 11mo), but DH left this morning for another freaking work trip until Friday (he was gone mon-thurs last week). Sigh.

ER 4/19/12 = 11 retrieved, 6 fertilized,

    :( poor thing! Do you have a nose Frieda? They freak me out, so I use the old school bulb syringe, but both my twins are snotty messes right now, and the suction once or twice a day seems to be helping. I hope she feels better soon and you have a relatively easy time til YH gets home!
    Me: 30, Dx Unexplained/hypothalamic amenorrhea
    DH: 31, normal!
    April/May 2011: Menopur + Ovidrel +TI = BFN
    Oct 2011: Menopur + Hcg +IUI = BFP!
    Beta #1 (13dpiui)= 129.7, Beta #2 (15 dpiui)= 305

    UGH! Sorry you are alone for this :(

    Molly had a cold in September, or at least we thought (not sure if it was a real cold or teething)..... Now she has another one - started yesterday and she's also a snotty mess :( Really hoping it passes as quickly and harmlessly as her first one did.

    I was also alone for the first one - DH was on a business trip. It sucked becuase she wasn't sleeping well.

    Good luck!!!

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!!!

    We have the Nose Frida. That think is absolutely vile, but it is amazing! The volume of snot removed is revolting. 

    As for J not getting sick, I attribute that to her winter bday and keeping her away from others t that time. My mom watched her at our house this summer when I was busy with my business. She goes out and about, but the wether here is so awesome that we havent really been cooped up inside. 

    Poor thing doesn't know what is going on, so she keeps crying because she can't breath. I held her all day Saturday, most of Sunday and she seems to want to be down today. I hope she is on the mend.

    Sorry to hear that! Colds are the worst- they mess with eating AND sleeping. DH travels a lot for work too, and it seems like I'm always alone when DS gets sick or goes through some awful wakeful period. Have you tried Baby Vicks on the soles of her feet at night, with socks on? I thought it was dumb but it's actually worked for us in the past. 
    DH and I are Americans living an adventure in Kenya since 2011
    DX: PCOS (annovulatory)
    Feb 2012: IUI #1 w/ only 1M sperm and a single follie = BFP! 
    Nov 2012: Little buddy born in Kenya
    Nov 2013: Trying for a second, still w PCOS
    Dec 2013: IUI cycle canceled for non-response
