@bea0725 I know from your intro that you don't like to hear sorries so I will respect that. So I will say that you are in my prayers and remember that Jesus says, "Blessed are those who mourn". I say that because, just in case you don't remember that, and find yourself feeling downtrodden on a particular day. He will not love you any less. Acknowledging our suffering is not a sin. You probably know these things, but I still want to encourage you anyway. It is my hope that you get your take home baby soon
People think we become mothers when we give birth but the truth is we become mothers the moment we start calling our babies to us in our thoughts, dreams and prayers. Some paths are short and some are so long that you can easily forget where you were headed.

Finally had my first peek! I was worried it was twins because I have twin cousins but thankfully its a singleton. Everything looks good, kicking its feet and measuring within 4 days of our original prediction.
Man, a lot of these are great quality....mine is always terrible. I’ll be paying to go get a private 3D this time since I didn’t before. But this is 10w3d. Hb 172, all good!
@-sunshine- I have not gotten my formal results. The tech told me my nuechal fold thickness and said it was well within the normal range, that a nasal bone was seen, etc. They have to combine it with blood work for a full result which will be about a week. I think she was just kind and trying to let me know she didn’t see anything alarming
Shocked but delighted to discover we're having twins. Both little beans are looking good, with strong heartbeats. In retrospect I wish I had sat back and "enjoyed" the experience a little more, but I was just so surprised to find out that there were two of them in there, it made things a little overwhelming. So hopefully the news will have sunk in more by my next appointment, and I can pay more attention to everything! Also found out I have a SCH, but was told not to worry about it, and I haven't had any spotting yet...so I'm just not going to think about it.
@aecm Congratulations! Please feel free to start a Moms of Multiples Check-in thread weekly or monthly if you'd like.

Had the Nuechal Test done today & received “screen negative” results for the combined FTS & NT. 😊 Measuring 12 weeks 1 day, new EDD of 8/5. I got to hear the HB again. I’m feeling a little nervous as soon I will be announcing our baby to our family & friends!
Measuring 9wks, 1day, although according to IVF I’m a couple days ahead of that. Baby’s feet are on the left and were kicking away! It was exciting to seem the little one squirming. Heart rate of 176!
9 weeks. Apparently I am gestating either a mouse or a chameleon.

Hi there, This is our peanut at roughly 8.5 weeks! 12 week appointment is on 2/5 and the waiting is killing me. Best wishes to all the August Mommas out there, my due date is 8/17/19. 🙂
-We had our 12 week on Monday and unfortunately found out we lost one of the twins But the surviving baby is perfect, healthy heartbeat, measuring right on time. And its so cute! Crazy that a month ago it was a blob and now it looks like an alien baby!
Had our second US with our RE yesterday afternoon and babe was back to measuring on track with my ovulation date (at the six-week scan, he/she was measuring a few days behind). Everything was perfect, and we were so excited to see babe actually looking like a real baby now!
Had my first prenatal appointment today! Got to see my little gummy bear again (original got an ultrasound from a free pregnancy clinic). Everything looks good! I'm 9 weeks pregnant but baby is measuring at 8 weeks 6 days. 2.2 cm, heartrate at 176. I am so happy! Image on the left was at 7.5 weeks, and on the right, today at 9 weeks.

Not the best pic— he used the abdominal US and my tipped back uterus makes it harder to get a clear image but baby is doing great! Measuring 10w5d and HR 153, feeling so relieved after an eventful first tri so far
Hey guys, professional lurker here 🙋🏻♀️ (I have lots of opinions and don’t like dealing with people who can’t handle differing opinions 🤣, so I’ll probably continue to be a lurker) I’m just super excited because I finally had my first ultrasound! 3rd pregnancy, hopefully 2nd baby.💞🥳 12+2💞
Today was an exciting appointment! We got to some great images of baby bean, and our due date got moved up from August 28th to August 20th! Here he/she is waving hello!
First time mom, today was the first day we got to meeting our little bean. Due date is still set for August 21. We got some great pictures of our little one finally ❤️ Measuring at 10+6, and we can’t wait!
We had our appointment today and everything went perfectly. We heard the heartbeat and it was strong at 161. Also got to see 2 legs and 2 arms. Baby was dancing away (just like me!) and it was adorable. I can’t believe how different baby looks compared to before. They moved my due date 1 day to August 26. I also gave blood for the NIPT test so results should come in 2 weeks. They have to send it to the US. Ahh.
I can’t believe this is real. I was so nervous. I really never thought we would have a baby. I’m so happy everything went well.
12w3d measuring right on time and NT normal! Heartbeat is 156. It’s amazing how much more “human” it looks from just a few weeks ago. I think I can finally relax (a little)!
I feel so far behind all of you. 9+6 and my first ultrasound isnt until February 5th. I wont know my due date until then but they are estimating Aug 31. I am so excited and nervous. Our DS is 9 and it took us all that time to create this little miracle.
NT scan today. Measured a little ahead at 12w3d and heart rate was 145 bpm. NT measurement came back normal, just waiting on the bloodwork.
Me: 31 DH:35 Started TTC in June 2014 Started seeing RE in June 2015 HSG in July 2015 = normal, started Clomid/Ovidrel/IUI cycle in August 2015 Cycle #3 in October afforded 1st month of mature follicles - underwent IUI BFP on 10/27/15 - EDD 7/8/16 DD#1 born on 7/1/16

My little love at 11 weeks, 4 days (size measuring 12 weeks, 4 days) with heartbeat of 166! ❤️ We are feeling so grateful and relieved and in love! 🥰 Can’t wait for the anatomy scan in 8 weeks!
