Sorry I know it can be scary. Very happy you have his hand to hold as well. Friday is going to be another happy day!! Hugs
 
I am very happy your hubby can be with you, you should remain positive also cos it's important for you baby. x
 
Hi ladies,

The scan went perfectly. Measuring a little ahead at 12+4 . The due date has been changed to 26th April. Im sure that'll change again. Here's baby

:wohoo:Hi Baby!!!:wohoo:


CONGRATS!! You have a healthy looking lil tike there. First trimester bout over too.

How are you feeling?
 
@Nixnax love that your husband got to go and that everything is going well!!!!

Also curious how you are feeling? :)

I am on 9dpo, testing out my 5000 novarel trigger. First time we've done trigger and TI, had soooo many symptoms for the first 5 days after it. I'm 10dpt and still have a line, but it hasn't disappeared yet so it's likely just trigger. Even seeing two lines knowing it's a trigger has been fun though. Took femara this round as well, only had one follie, but it only takes one! Hoping.

How are things with you @FTale ?
 
Thank you ladies, we were on a high all weekend. We've officially announced it now. Feels so good to finally tell people.

Well.... since Monday evening I've been in bed with a horrible migraine. Must be the hormones. I've been miserable. Serves me right for having an easy first 12wks. Im feeling a lot better this evening. Im starting to show a little, well my tyre on my stomach is getting bigger :rofl: I wouldn't call it a bump.

I'm going to be checked out soon for the heart conditions in the family. Hopefully that all comes back clear.
 
@mandu10 We are in the same boat. You a bit further than me. I am 4dpiui/5dptrig. I feel so bad. Like a giant upset uterus. I cant get comfy no matter what I do. If I am pregnant, maybe its twins :shrug:...ugh gonna be a long 2ww.

I will be stalking and praying this is your month.

@Nixnax :hug: So happy for you! And stacking up a million prayers that baby does not have any heart conditions.

I had to have some swigs of caffeine when preggers due to migraines and cluster headaches. Sending you well wishes that those go away.

As you see above, I did the iui. Hopefully it worked. Feeling sick at only 4dpiui. :coffee: Still a while to go yet. Will keep you all posted. For now, more rest is in store.

Hugs
 
I didn't think about having some caffeine to help it. I might try that one.

Yay for IUI, really praying this works for you hun.

Hoping this is your month to both of you.
 
Truly hoping there are no heart conditions present! Love that you got to tell people! Can only imagine how wonderful that would be \\:D/

I'm out again. Stopped feeling nauseous and having weird pregnancy symptoms a few days ago as the trigger was out of my system and my normal spotting started 2 days ago and now I'm out. Was weirdly hopeful that this was the month. Then at work there were 4 nurses that were pregnant, one on her 5th kiddo, and one breast feeding, so I had to do a lot of the cares for people that were on precautions as I was one of two people there not pregnant, which they kept reminding me of. It doesn't normally bother me, but this time I had to go to the bathroom to gather myself. They keep warning me to "not drink the water" as everyone around them gets pregnant ](*,).

DH and I are talking that next year we're going to save and look heavily into adoption if this doesn't work out. Some days are better than others. Thanks for listening to my rant. <3
 
^Forgot to add above! Hope your IUI worked and you are pregnant this month!! I love when long termers get their BFP, something vindicating about it. :)
 
@mandu10 oh thats not very nice at all. Being reminded of that everyday. I'm sorry you are out. Adoption is such a love thing to do. Sadly there are so many unwanted children looking for a forever home, that makes me sad. We were considering fostering after our first child of our own. I'd love to help children, even if its only temporarily.
 
@mandu10 OMG I couldn't belp but tear up. So uncaring of them to be that way. You are a strong person to be able to walk around and not lose your marbles on ppl. I am sad for you and mad too because I have been there and wanted to put the smack down on folks.

I want to foster as well. My bf does and she has never had any children of her own. Not by choice just never met mr right so didnt want to have any on her own. But fostering has been a world changer for her. She got practice with dd when she was 3 and it helped her confidence level. Now she is a pro but more importantly her fosters have a safe home.

:-( I'm sorry this cycle did not work. Please let us know your next steps.
Super Duper Hug

@Nixnax: You showed me your possible pregnant stick, can I show you mine? I have been testing last few days of trigger out and they went light and now today I think my frer is darker? Or trigger playin games with me? I have been so sick and cant stop peeing. Mind you I am only 8dpo but 10dpt so it could be the trigger still. 9dpo in the morning and some ladies have a super faint line by then. I am hoping mine is a lil darker because of hcg in shot.

Oh I am rambling...better post pic before I lose my nerve And thank you both for the iui well wishes.

Top pic today at noon
Bottom pic today 640pm

I can hardly hold my pee so the most hold is 2hr but the bottom one not sure I had much of one.

Will test in morning too if i have the nerve.

Well the bottom test definitely looks darker to me. Omg I really hope this is the real deal for you. I saw your post with the cheapies tests as well and they do look darker today.

Please please please be darker tomorrow. Be sure to post the test pics so we can scrutinise them. Wishing you soooooooo much luck
 
Hey @Nixnax thank you for looking.

I ran out of rapid frer so didnt have those to use again so it might have shown darker today..meh who knows.

Tomorrow should yield some form of hope or totally shut down my ttc party for the month. Nursing my ailing gut has been a distraction but one I am ready to be done with.

Hope you are having a sweet day over there. <3
 
I'm stalking all your tests [-o&lt;

I've had a rare day off work today, I spent it painting and the went to my friends. She gave me a few baby bits. Including a birthing ball. Can't wait to get that pumped up. My hips have started aching a little. Surely it's too early for that business
 
Awwww...not if you are small framed I imagine.

Birthing ball is a great idea. Helps stretch you out down there for an easier birth and no tears if possible. Too epidural can cause you to not feel how hard you are pushing and thus push baby out too fast causing nasty tear.

I think they offer the option of episiotomy thougg to help with that too.

Time is going to fly by and baby will be here before you know it!!

So happy for you
 
I'm quite small ish. Im 5'3". Im going to get that pumped up today and start stretching.

I saw todays tests, still showing lines. Hoping this is it for you.

I'm hoping I dont need the episiotomy, that sounds really painful. Mind you it all sounds painful :rofl:. Im such a baby with pain.
 
@Nixnax oh my goodness a birthing ball! How exciting! So nice to have supportive friends around. I have a few who are very close and know of my struggles with infertility.

@FTale I SO HOPE this is it for you!!! We'll keep checking back to see the progression! I only had 5000IU of novarel and my trigger lasted until 12 dpo :( never got darker though, yours looks like it's darker at times. :) I'm holding out for you!

Thank you both for your kind words. This cycle is much heavier than any I've had in a while, but maybe it'll act to help reset my system. :D
