Re: July 2019 FET

  • Wow!! So much good news since last I checked in.

    AFM
    We had first US Friday, 6w2d, and everything looked great, even saw a HB. They are having me go back this Friday... “given your history” they said they want extra monitoring this time.

  • @LauraJon2015 that's awesome! Congratulations!
  • @mrsjones91716 @LauraJon2015 congrats to both of you!! 

    Good luck tomorrow @ACAC25, let us know how your US goes :)

    AFM, I had my first US today at 6w3d:
    Heard and saw the heartbeat, 119bpm.

    I’ll go back again at 8 weeks for hopefully my last appointment with my RE before switching to an OBGYN.

  • Amazing news @LauraJon2015 and @akak23! So excited for you both!! If I remember correctly I believe I had 2 ultrasounds a week apart from each other with my RE (at 6w and 7w) and then they released me to my OB last time. I’m hoping it’ll be the same this time. My 1st ultrasound is scheduled for 6w3d.

    how is everyone?
  • So happy for you @bv8952!! I haven’t had any sickness yet aside from occasional waves of nausea. I’m emetephobic so terrified of actually throwing up. I never threw up last pregnancy so hoping I don’t this time either!

    @italianmommy8 when will you POAS?

  • I couldn't wait any longer so I POAS this morning at 5dp5dt (FET) and got a faint line! I couldn't believe it! My first positive pregnancy test ever!

    So, when you do a FET and get a positive test, how far along are you? My ER was on 6/18, but my FET was 8/1.

  • Yay congrats @covergirl2985!!! With IVF/FET your EDD is always calculated based on your transfer date. I plugged your FET date into a calculator and your EDD is April 18, 2020 (for a singleton) and March 28 (for twins since they come earlier)! How many did you transfer?

    OMG congrats @ACAC25 that’s amazing!!!! I can’t even imagine! I’m guessing you were hoping for 3 based on your post?

  • @ACAC25 omg congrats! You’re going to have your hands full 😍

    @covergirl2985 that is a great looking positive! So happy for you! 

    @bv8952 and another big congrats to you! Our group has had so much positive news, it’s truly amazing.
  • Thanks ladies we are still in shock! @akak23 thank you! We will definitely have our hands full. 
    @wifeinraleigh28 thank you! To be honest we transferred 3 hoping for twins. We really wanted twins. But we did look into what we would need for 3. But we only had a 5% chance and didn't really think it would happen. It's crazy but we are so happy.

  • @inthewoods23 I know! That's how we feel. We told our parents this afternoon and my dad just sat there frozen for like 30 mins! We are starting to think about the things we need to buy/do to accommodate 3 babies. We are so excited and shocked lolb
  • @ACAC25 wow! so exciting! i saw a woman with a triplet stroller once and my eyes just about popped out of my head. i can just picture your dad's expression lol.

    @covergirl2985 yay congrats!!

    @bv8952 and @akak23 and @LauraJon2015 that's so special - i can't wait to get to that stage  <3  what other symptoms are you guys having now if any?
  • @nancinator I felt tired, sore boobs but fine until 6w1d. Now the last 4 days have been pretty hard for me, queasy almost all day, having a hard time keeping food down. I get motion sickness very easily and I’ve read sometimes that makes you more susceptible to MS so I’m not sure if that’s why mine is all day. When is your next appointment?
  • @akak23 I went in today and my beta was 231. Going back Thursday to check that numbers are rising by 66% or maybe even double. 
  • Congrats on the triplets!!! Wow that’s amazing news! 
    Congrats @covergirl2985 on your BFP! Your transfer was a day before mine. Did you transfer 1? Your 2 weeks and 5 days the day of transfer.
  • sooooo....I felt like I was out this cycle didn’t feel the same way and no symptoms. Was worried about my progesterone level decreasing by 6.3 too.

    I took my first test this morning at 4dpt and vvvvvvfp. I was so happy to see the faintest line there and gives me hope. I will check again tomorrow morning. If it is positive I won’t tell hubby this time (we normally test together) I want to surprise him. I go back for blood test on Sunday 4 weeks if it’s positive. 
  • @nancinator that's a great beta!! FX that everything progresses well and continues with good numbers on Thursday. Also, my nausea just hit full force a few days ago and comes and goes all day! Like @akak23 its also getting really bad when im in the car. 
    @italianmommy8 congrats!! That's great news!!  
  • Congrats @nancinator that’s a great number!! FX for your next beta!

    Yay for your bfp @italianmommy8! That’s so crazy cool that you can see a positive at 4dpt. At 5dpt mine was so faint I felt like my eyes might’ve been deceiving me! I was using a cheapo amazon stick though. Maybe they’re easier to see early with FRER!

    @italianmommy8 we transferred 2 embryos, going for my Beta on 8/12, which would be 12dpt...hoping to see great numbers, tho I'm not even sure what my numbers should be???

    @akak23 congrats on triplets! That's so, so amazing! I'm hoping our twins stay put :smiley:

    Today's line @ 6dpt was a bit stronger, tho I took the test at 5am when I had to pee....I snapped the pic around 8am...still positive nonetheless  <3

  • Took two more tests tonight - 5dp5dt


  • I am overjoyed that we are all pregnant at the same time.I think there is 10 of us total who are all between 4-7 weeks.I hope people who read this get inspired and don't give up hope for there IVF baby.I get carsick/seasick easy so think that is why I have had some morning sickness so far.I have started a journal for my future child to read.I want him/her to get to know me.I am looking forward to all of us supporting each other.
  • Awww me too @bv8952
    I started having a lot of symptoms yesterday 
  • Beautiful progression @italianmommy8!!

    What a lovely idea @bv8952. Your LO will cherish that forever!

    I feel pretty good most of the day except I keep waking up with diarrhea. And in the afternoon I feel like I’m ready for bed lol. Also been getting very easily motion sick. I tried taking diclegis a couple nights ago to see if that would help me feel better the next afternoon but instead I was extremely groggy ALL day. Ugh.

  • Sent my husband an evite for dinner tonight. 
    I didn’t state the restaurant. But made reservations to a place we told our older children that we were engaged and have our celebrations at. It’s a Thursday (first date was a Thursday and it’s the 8th the day we got married was the 8th), He thinks I just made a date night for anniversary tonight. He doesn’t think I’ve tested yet....so hard to keep this secret. Can’t wait to tell him tonight! I’ll share pics how I am surprising him tell him. 4 weeks on Sunday when I go for my first beta.

    @italianmommy8 that's such a cute idea for telling your hubby!

    I took another test today @ 7dpt, the line wasn't much stronger than yesterday....I don't want to freak out, but I thought it would be much stronger by today...maybe that's the reason they dont do Beta until 10-12 days after transfer...thoughts?

  • @covergirl2985 don’t worry! Same thing happened to me. All it means is you’re still getting a BFP. Try again in a day or 2, or wait for your beta.
  • Feeling so excited for everyone in this group  <3

    Tuesday beta was 231 and today it was 520! 🤞
  • Congrats @nancinator great betas!!!
