Re: 2IF Grad Check-In September 21, 2015

  • 1. 17+ weeks (I guess I should know days lol)
    2. Check up tomorrow!
    3. Better, a little irrational, but not as sick all the time. Insomnia has set in and I do not like her :(
    4. Yesterday I was supposed to find out what we were having- but despite leaving early we were heavily delayed by traffic and a thousand accidents and the place was booked for rest of day. They aren't open on Sundays. Oh and booked for next few weeks. And I had already burst out in tears- I did so again bc we are doing a reveal party on my birthday (Oct 4th) and they had no openings until after that. Well, since we dumped all our money in to IVF and all, we can't go anywhere else, only reason we got to do this place is I won a package when DD was one (two years ago; I have held on to the paper for dear life!!!) so stuck with them. Anyway- after telling her my whole life story in tears apparently we broke her heart and she added an extra appt for us the morning of my birthday and we will go there before we head on to party. I guess for the party I'm going to make two batches of cupcakes- one with pink center and one w blue- and then bring them both and hope I serve the right ones... If anyone has an idea for that- let me know! Thanks! :)

  • Ew pregnancy insomnia, I hate her too.

    No news on the c section yet, they are waiting on the November/December schedule to come out. I noticed you have me having Christmas babies, but I am actually due December 14 (that's 40 weeks, but won't go past 38).

    1. 28 weeks today
    2. I am on weekly appointments now, so next one is Wednesday. Last ultrasound went great. Next one is oct 13.
    3. I am feeling rough. I talked to the doc about work (I'm a retail manager) and will only be working this week and next (at 25 hours) then I will be done. I can not wait.
    4. I don't think I get out of the ordinary crazy emotional about things, usually just the normal amount of emotional. Right now the lack of house cleaning skills MH has is driving me insane. We actually ended up not speaking last night because of it.

  • Let me just say sorry in advance for the rant!! 1. 32 weeks today! 2. I ended up in the hospital last week because my sister-in-law got mad my husband told her to MYOB and shoved my husband into me hitting my stomach and knocked me to the ground. Lost two large chunks of bloody mucous and the babies slowed movement for a while. Heart rates were good no dilation but abnormal results on the non-stress test. One of the babies got completely flipped around and wasn't moving at all, even the nurse got worried because it took so long to find a heartbeat. It was enough to make my house arrest permanent except out of necessity. Babies are doing better and I have an ultrasound scheduled Wednesday to make sure there is no lasting damage. Stupid bitch still hasn't apologized or asked if the babies are ok, she blamed me because she didn't know I was there. (She also caused my husband to bust a stitch from the surgery he just had. She just gets mad about her relationship issues and hates to see her brothers happily married, having children and so on.) 3. Feeling sore and crappy, because one of the babies had turned head down into my pelvis and got completely dislodged now she is trying to find her way back which is good but super painful. It's also raised my blood pressure, not too bad but enough that I feel it. 4. We went on a multiples tour because even though we are delivering at the same hospital it is different when you are having two. I cried seeing the rooms and remembering delivering my daughter and all the time before and after she was born. And it was a little hard knowing that this time I will have to be wheeled down the hall into an OR to push :(

  • @lcloffredo
    OMG! I cannot believe the freaking ignorance of some people! ESPECIALLY your husband's sister?!?! what the heck! I am so sorry you are dealing with all of that. Glad to hear the babies are ok though.

    @momarazzi007 for your cupcakes, you could use different liners for each so you know which one is which! :) maybe like yellow for a boy and white for a girl?? SO exciting that you are finding out so soon! :)


    1.  How many weeks along are you? 6w5d! SO excited that in just another week, I will be at 2 months! :)

    2.  Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? Same 1st u/s date, and we are getting closer and closer!!!

    3.  How are you feeling lately? I am so tired beyond belief and my nipples are killin me! But I am thankful for every symptom I can get. So MS hasn't really been an issue, just some food aversions but nothing major

    4.  QOTW: DO you get emotional over crazy things? Any stories that later you realized how out of the norm that was for you?   My feelings get hurt suuuuuper easy these days. Almost too easy... Nothing in particular, just sometimes I get really upset over the smallest things.

  • @lcloffredo‌ seriously Holy $#!+!!! I hope she doesn't come around for a looooong time- you don't need that violence and drama. Even if "she didn't know you were there" she knew your husband had had surgery and is going to push him??? I am so sorry but so glad it seems the babies are ok and being closely watched!!!

    My History:
    Lots of BFN's & failed IUI's w/clomid and/or femara
    Finally BFP with femara & t.i.- son born 6/17/2010
    Started TTC again around when DS was 3ish
    Lots of BFN's with femara & t.i & ovidrel
    Tubes clear, S.A came back low motility but high count
    About to switch to injectables w/femara, did one last cycle with just femara & an IUI with ovidrel- stupid motility was fantastic in the sample, but count was 700,000 AFTER wash! Had to sign a paper to even still do IUI- BFFP (big fat freaking positive) Go figure!

    1st Beta 13dpiui 54, 2nd beta 48 hours later 115, 3rd beta 48 hours later 310, 4th beta 72 hours later 1748.
  • @lcloffredo OMG, I would be livid!!!! I'm glad the babies are okay!!


    1. 36.5 weeks

    2. Appt today. I've had some weird symptoms over the weekend, I'm hoping my blood pressure and everything is fine because I am not ready to go on bedrest yet.

    3. Tired, but that's to be expected. This weekend I have been having these really strange dizzy spells, even when I would lie down and close my eyes I could still feel the room spinning. I've been kind of bad about taking my prenatals because I've been really constipated. So I started my prenatals again because I assume my iron is low. It's been five or six days since I have pooped. Despite taking 3-4 Colace a day, having miralax once and even desperately trying a suppository. Sorry for all the TMI. I think we are at the point where baby girl is literally blocking the exit.

    4. I have been so hormonal this past week. I can't even tell you the really stupid things I have cried about.  

    DD 12/1/2009
    TTC#2 Since May 2012
    Dx PCOS February 2013 on Metformin 1500 mg
    Met with RE October 2013, we've got a plan!
    Surprise BFP on "break cycle" 10/12/13. EDD 6/17/14.
    MMC discovered 11/25/13 at 10 weeks. D&C 11/27/13.
    BFP 2/8/14 Beta#1: 176, Prog 18! Beta#2:335, Prog, 19.5!
    EDD 10/16/2014

  • Lclofreddo, oh my gosh, I can't believe that happened! So glad the LOs are ok and hope you are hanging in there!
    Cerad5, hope that you feel better! Have you tried taking a warm bath to help with the constipation? Not too much longer for either of us - hope these next few weeks go by fast!

    1. 36 weeks
    2. Dr appt tomorrow
    3. Feeling better this week compared to last except now I am starting to freak out that LO could be arriving anytime! Feeling nervous about labor starting at any time and hope I don't end up having to go to the hospital at night - we have plans in case that happens but I hate disturbing Jeffrey's sleep/routine. Also annoyed with work - my boss gave me a new project last week a day after I went home sick with a cold! On a positive note, DH and I had a nice date night on Saturday (saw The Giver at the movies) and planning another one for this coming Saturday (going out for dinner to get barbeque shrimp in the French Quarter!)
    4. I don't think I get that emotional although DH would disagree lol!
