Success after IF

There is just no reason for it!!! (Just a silly vent)

I have been on vaca for 2 weeks and am finally home, but i lived in my yoga pants as they were more comfortable, nausea has set in full force, i have gained only 2 lbs, and yet today i cant even come close to buttoning my pants up!!! This was not an issue till 15 weeks with my first and i am only 8 weeks now!
This is crazy! So out come the belly bands and good bye to buttons!
If only this was a real bump, and not a blump!

No reason to this just frustrated... :)
Happy monday! :)

Started TTC in 2006, LOTS of trying, and trying, and 7 rounds of IVF with 13 embryos, 2 perfect little boys and 5 loses....
All finished with babies, started to make diet changes, Keto, to be MORE for my kids, lost 30 pounds, still going, and 3 months in, I had a natural cycle, and then ovulated... Hubs and I are going to see what happens now... Maybe a natural pregnancy? After everything we have been through? Or just a return to normal hormones? We shall see what the future holds!

Baby Dust To All!!!

  • Oh thank you for this! YOU ARE NOT ALONE! I know any pregnancy other than your first you "stretch" quicker because your body has already been there. There's nothing wrong w it. (Right?) I've been using an elastic band through the button hole for a few weeks (there, I said it). Get out those belly bands and enjoy it. :-) be comfy! And welcome back home.
    Me = 36 with PCOS and 1 tube removed for a cyst and adhesions
    DH = 35 with low morphology

    April '09 IVF (antagonist protocol) = 5R5M, none fertilized, cancelled at ET
    May/June '09 IVF/ICSI = 6R6M6F, 2ET on 6.18.09, 1 frostie, Beta on

    Now on the quest for another, so our dear son is not alone.

    May/June '12 IVF/ICSI (antagonist protocol) =10R9M9F, 1ET = BFN, 2 frosties
    Aug '12 FET, 1ET= beta hell, 2 rounds of methotrexate, 4 months later Hcg < 2
