Thanks ladies. It's great to have so much support. <br><br>Hi Mao, good advice from your family. Do as little as possible, especially since we won't have a free second in around 7 months time. I'm the opposite of you. I'm almost force feeding myself sometimes. A lot of the time, the thought of food makes me feel queasy and some smells make me want to be sick.
DH has arranged a couple of friends to come over for a bbq tonight and I've had to lock myself in the bedroom so that I can't smell the meat marinade because the smell has gone through the whole house. I don't know what I'm going to do when they arrive. The worst part is that they don't know our good news and won't find out until after our 12 week scan so I'm worried about how I'm going hide it. <br><br>Hi Kate, Congratulations!! I'm so pleased for you and your
DH. You both must be so thrilled. I was like you, I didn't want to get too excited because I too had a
m/c at around 7 weeks last year, before ivf, and I couldn't relax until I had the scan on Thursday. It was such a relief to see the heart beats. Actually we were over the moon to see two.<br><br>We had 2 embryos put back one 8 cell and one 7 cell. Both good quality with no fragmentation. <br><br>I've been thinking about possible signs that both might've stuck, so here are some ideas:<br>- My hcg blood test came back quite high. My hcg was 520 at 12 days after 3 day transfer. But I've heard of ladies that had a low hcg and ended up with twins or even triplets so you never know. <br>- I'm not sure if my implantation bleeding was a sign but I'll tell you anyway. I bled on day 7 of
2ww then spotted day 8, blood day 9 and spotting for the rest of the week. It may be that the bleed on day 9 (although it was lighter than day 7) was the second emby implanting. <br>- Other than that my morning sickness started early at about 5 1/2 weeks. But again, there are women with a singleton who are physically sick every day and others (like mao) with twins and no morning sickness. <br>So many possible signs but at the end of the day who knows. <br><br>When is your first scan Kate and how many did you have put back?<br><br>I think I'd better stop typing now because I'm sure I've filled the page.<br><br>Take it easy everyone.<br><br>Love Maggie.xx
