Sorry you ladies aren't having the best pregnancy but it'll be better soon I'm sure of it. As for me should be having my retrieval Friday or Saturday. I have 4 good size follicles and 4 following but aren't quite there yet. So possible 4-8 which isn't bad for just one ovary lol. This Lupron I think is working for me. 4 shots a day though I feel like a pin cushion lol. Can't wait to see more US's soon.

@wenikilina I wasn't told about any second tri testing yet. I did the verifi test to test for chromosomal abnormalities AND find out the sex!! (I should know next mon) I REALLY wanted to know the sex, but I'm kinda sad I didn't do the NT scan bc I miss seeing the baby every week. It's been so hard emotionally not getting the weekly updates! I won't go back to the OB for about a month. So that's why there really has been much of an update- all I do is sit and wait to see the dr. My morning sickness has escalated since week 10, which sucks!!
@AL_TwinCities we all know the waiting is hard! Looking back, time flew by so fast after it all started, like a snowball rolling down a hill! Hang in there and just keep working on those eggs. The ivf meds gave me an insatiable appetite, so stick to all that healthy stuff you are eating now! Lol I will say, get into whatever habits and supplements now. Once you start with the RE, they will discourage you from doing ANYTHING different bc they want to know if it is the meds affecting things. Ex: I was told not to drink Pom juice bc they wanted to see if the estrogen patches thickened my lining or not so they could adjust meds. All of the things we were doing beforehand were fine.
@LSatturo126 how are you? Any updates on follie counts or sizes? I'm anxiously awaiting to hear how many eggs you get this retrieval so you can build that reserve!!

@twomommiestobe and @wenikilina did you both have some early bleeding?? There's so many posts to go back and try to find but I thought I remembered you both having this issue..I had some bleeding last night, bright red, no cramps. Everything is ok..it lasted under 2 hours..went to ER and then to the RE this morning. Baby looks good with a good heartbeat. They saw some blood closer to the cervix and said to expect more bleeding. While i know 1 in 3 women have this happen stills makes me nervous like crazy.
@rachlee2010 yes! It is OK just rest! My RE said keeping your feet elevated relaxes your uterine muscles the most, so keep your feet up when possible. I never had cramping, but bled for a few days and had random spotting later on. Just drink TONS of water and follow Dr orders. And it's also great news that it is lower by the cervix, so the baby will be fine!! *hugs* I know it's hard not to stress, but just try to enjoy your little miracle!

@rachlee2010 I feel like alllllll of you ladies have had this happen in the beginning.,could it be a low AMH thing? But normal I mean.
Had my US and BW yesterday. 4 good sizes and a possible 3 or 4 more to catch up would be nice lol. My estrogen is getting higher which Is good they said. I go back tomorrow. I'm hoping the trigger is tomorrow for Friday Retrieval. My cousins shower is Saturday and I really don't want to miss it. But embys come first lol

@rachlee2010 Yes. I was told it is very common in IVF pregnancies and usually it resolves on its own. It's still not something that is comforting to see though. I will hope that everything stays fine for you. Relax and take it easy. @LSatturo126 That's great!! I have a feeling you'll be getting more eggs this time! @twomommiestobe That is so cool you get to find out the sex!! I asked about the blood test and they said only for women over 35. Sooo I guess we have to wait! Today we started the genetics screening testing. Got my bloodwork done...they took a ton of blood. And tomorrow we have a nuchal scan scheduled. We had to schedule it through radiology - because of the twins it cannot be done in office. Hoping all is well. I always get nervous.
Measurements and heartbeats are good. One sideview and other with head facing forward.

@wenikilina I'm not 35 (neither is dw-her eggs) but since we used a donor, we paid to do it. Plus, I just want to know at 13 weeks, not 20! Impatient!!! We spent too much time waiting for this baby, so I didn't want to wait another minute to name him/her.

@wenikilina yes it seems way more common in ivf but my dr said 1 in 3 women have it. In the past year not including me I know of 3 other close friends who bleed in the first trimester and one of them did ivf. But it's definitely scary and something I'd rather not see/deal with
asm: I graduated from the re Monday but was back there today to check after the bleeding. I see my ob next Wednesday for the first time. I'll be a day shy of 10 weeks. I'm currently just under 9 weeks. Kind of want to fast forward to at least past the rest of the first trimester but I'll go all the way to November happily
So happy for all of you! @wenikilina twins are looking very perfect! @twomommiestobe can't wait to hear the sex!
I got the call yesterday on the one embryo that made it to day 5 but they said the genetic testing came back in conclusive and they have to do it again. So now I'm worried something is wrong. I will be having my retrieval either Saturday or Sunday. There are 4 good sizes and a bunch of others less than 10mm. Wish they were all around the same size ugh.

@LSatturo126 4 sounds great and you never know you still have a few days for some of the smaller ones to catch up and be big enough. I have my fingers crossed for you. I hope your one frozen one comes back ok. Don't worry yet, inconclusive could just be a mess up in the lab and nothing is really wrong.
What is your next step after this retrieval? Will you wait to get the genetic results on whatever you get this time and then prep for a FET?
@LSatturo126 I am hoping the best for your eggs!! Fingers crossed the other smaller ones will catch up in time. And I think there is a chance that they might!!
@twomommiestobe I am excited to find out the sex of your little one! Do you have a preference? Of course, healthy!!

Those are some great pictures. My re graduated us at 8w 4d but it should have ben 8w 1d but we couldn't make it that day. My next appointment (my first with the obgyn is on Wednesday. I can't wait.
Yesterday I was crampy with some lower back pain and some slight nausea. So far today I am feeling fine. I get nervous all the time something si wrong. I am debating getting a fetal doppler for at home because some friends of mine really recommend it but I worry if I get it and can't find the heartbeat I will freak out and it's probably better to just let things be. Any thoughts on that ladies?
@wenikilina could they already see the boy parts? or did you have the blood test done? That is so exciting. boy/girl twins sounds so perfect and fun!
See! I'm regretting skipping the NT to do the bloodwork. I want to see the baby!!! I'm freaking out bc I don't go back for a few more weeks and I don't think I get a u/s then either. I still wish I could go weekly to the RE until I deliver haha
@lsatturo126 your ER is coming up fast! I can't wait to hear GREAT numbers, bc I am sure that is what you will have.
@AL_TwinCities you will be here before you know it, celebrating good news! none of us have given up hope and we won't give up hope for your miracle baby either. Some take a little longer,but we never stop cheering them on.
Afm, 13 weeks today! I'm so excited and I'll be impatiently waiting by the phone for the next few days to find out the sex!

@rachlee2010 Yes!! I have a home fetal doppler and I love it!! I've been using it for quite awhile. Now that we don't have the weekly appointments it is nice to be able to hear the heartbeats on our own whenever we want. Yes, we definitely saw the boy parts on Twin B! @twomommiestobe You will find out the sex soon though!! We totally weren't expecting to find out so soon. And we still don't know for sure on the second twin! Can't wait to hear your news.

@AL_TwinCitiesAssisted hatching. We did it as well bc our clinic does it for all ivf, so it was included in the price. You can ask your RE. Ours never mentioned it, but I saw it on our waivers we signed and asked.
RE DX for me: Anovulatory cycles/Mild PCOS RE DX for DW: Endometrioma on left Ovary. Reciprocal Ivf Feb 2016. DW eggs and I am carrying. EDD: 10/27/16
So they just called.. Out of 5, 3 were mature and only 2 fertilized. This is so sad for me. I thought we would get more out this time. Hoping they make it to day 5. I'll keep you all posted by Friday.

@AL_TwinCities we all know the waiting is hard! Looking back, time flew by so fast after it all started, like a snowball rolling down a hill! Hang in there and just keep working on those eggs. The ivf meds gave me an insatiable appetite, so stick to all that healthy stuff you are eating now! Lol I will say, get into whatever habits and supplements now. Once you start with the RE, they will discourage you from doing ANYTHING different bc they want to know if it is the meds affecting things. Ex: I was told not to drink Pom juice bc they wanted to see if the estrogen patches thickened my lining or not so they could adjust meds. All of the things we were doing beforehand were fine.
@LSatturo126 how are you? Any updates on follie counts or sizes?

@LSatturo126 That's great!! I have a feeling you'll be getting more eggs this time!
@twomommiestobe That is so cool you get to find out the sex!! I asked about the blood test and they said only for women over 35. Sooo I guess we have to wait! Today we started the genetics screening testing. Got my bloodwork done...they took a ton of blood. And tomorrow we have a nuchal scan scheduled. We had to schedule it through radiology - because of the twins it cannot be done in office. Hoping all is well. I always get nervous.
Measurements and heartbeats are good. One sideview and other with head facing forward.

@twomommiestobe yay for finding out gender
@lsatturo126 hoping for a bunch of eggs for you
asm: I graduated from the re Monday but was back there today to check after the bleeding. I see my ob next Wednesday for the first time. I'll be a day shy of 10 weeks. I'm currently just under 9 weeks. Kind of want to fast forward to at least past the rest of the first trimester but I'll go all the way to November happily
@twomommiestobe can't wait to hear the sex!
I got the call yesterday on the one embryo that made it to day 5 but they said the genetic testing came back in conclusive and they have to do it again. So now I'm worried something is wrong. I will be having my retrieval either Saturday or Sunday. There are 4 good sizes and a bunch of others less than 10mm. Wish they were all around the same size ugh.
