Kim,
Big congrats to you!!! I'm not sure if you've seen my earlier post, but I had a scan at 5 weeks due to some intense cramping and bleeding. They just found that one of the embies didn't make it but one is doing great! I have the photos and they got a heartbeat that was around 105. At that time ...

Wow!! It sounds like a babyboom around Christmas and the first of the year! My est. due date is Jan. 11, 2006. Boy, do I ever have symptoms. Been very fatigued for a while now and the nausea is horrid. It usually begins in the early afternoon and kept me awake til after midnight last night :cry: I ...

Hi!! Congratulations to us all!! I never thought I'd get to post on this side and honestly, I'm still having to pinch myself to make sure I'm not dreaming :lol: :lol: ! We got a BFP on May 9 and we are still in shock. This was our first (and last due to $$$) IVF and we feel unbelievably blessed and ...

Hi! Yes, my clinic had me to come in every other day during the 2ww after the 5day bed rest to check progesterone and estrogen levels. I have one non-functioning ovary so I'm taking these hormone injections for that reason. I've also been told that sometimes miscarriages are contributed to drops in ...

Hi! My clinic does blood test only. Feels it gives an accurate reading due to Hcg levels.

Sandra,

I've been patiently waiting for your big day!! You were such a positive influence for me as I endured the grueling 2ww. Thank you for being there for me. I have fingers and toes crossed and just feel deep down that you are going to get a BFP. That little embie is extra special!!

Loads of ...

Debra,
I too am speechless and have tears rolling down my cheeks reading your posts. Words cannot begin to describe what you have endured yet you seem to have such a positive outlook which is inspiration to us all. Your dr. had some words of encouragement and wisdom, too. Please listen to her and ...

divinagracia,

I know how desperately you wanted to know the results, as I went throught the same thing. My test day was scheduled on a Monday and I wanted so much to hpt on Saturday. I logged on to this site and told the girls how I was feeling. Through their love and encouragement, they convinced ...

Hi May Bloomers,

I am reading each day to learn how each of you is doing and it seems that May is an incredible month! As I read about those of you testing, waiting, 2ww, I just want to reach out and give you a great big hug. I've never felt such an emotional journey as those times, esp. the 2ww ...

Hi Caroline!

Oh, I am terrified of triplets! Tell me how you are coping. I will be 39 when this child/children are born and to have gone this long w/o children and then to think of 3 just blows my mind! Our first scan is June 1. That will be appx. 8 wks and they will tell us that day how many are ...

Hi TJ,

Glad you got great news and the patches are doing as they should!! I went back to the dr. today for another blood check and my hCG had nearly doubled - already over 400.

The May bloomers are doing great!! Hopefully, many more will join us soon. I know that Maci got a BFP today!!!

Katy

Hi!

Thanks Debra! I appreciate the advice as this is soooo very new to me. I've always had a fear that I'd never experience pregnancy and would not allow myself to ever read anything about it. Now, as you can imagine, I've bought books and reading all the time! My mom has no stretch marks but she ...

Maci -

A Great Big Hurray!!!

I am so excited for you! I read your post and had tears. The May Bloomers are just doing fantastic. I know how you and dh are feeling - my dh and I are still a bit in shock ourselves!!

Take care and get lots of rest!

Loads of love,
Kate

Belinda,

Thanks so much for your help! I'm sure the memories are forever in your mind and a big congratulations to you on your precious little one! Actually, I live in the US, not the UK but I will check to see if I can find a similar product.

Have a great day,
Katy

Hi! Just received the news yesterday on our BFP!!! I am very thankful to be able to post on this side, too. I have heard different things about breast preparation for breast feeding. Also, any good ideas for preventing stretch marks? Your help is much needed and appreciated.

Thanks!
Katy
