Mommieof2: I am now on strict bedrest, only can get up to potty. I went in for reg apt on 4/21 and the said my cervix was dilated to 1. I was admitted and spent 9 days in the hospital. They finally sent me home and I have a home monitoring device which I use to check for contractions. I am so ...

Do you know why your water broke at 22 weeks? This is a really important question. if your cervix was opening, then in any pregnancy, twins or not, you maybe need to consider a cerclage at about 10-12 weeks. My water broke at with my first pregnancy at 24 weeks exactly and my DD was born at 25 weeks ...

I was diagnosed with hypothyroid about a year after the birth of my DD (IVF) when I had issues getting my period. I assumed it was due to breast feeding and my PCOS but the doc ran tests and found the issue.
For this cycle, I told my RE about the thyroid and I continued on my synthroid dose. Right ...

Hi ladies,
How is everyone doing? This thread is so quiet:)
Things are going well here. Loving the nonstop kicking . Never got to feel any of this with my DD cuz of all the complications. DH finally got to feel kicks too and he was so excited. Kinda sort of starting to think of order furniture but I ...

Once the Beta is over 1000 they should be able to see the sac or sacs on U/S. You can ask for one this early and they should be able to tell you how many. Congrats!

BFP or BFN: BFP
Fresh or frozen: Frozen
How many attempts: 1
Reason for the single embryo transfer: Didn't want to have multiples...as you can see...I am PG with identical twins from the one embryo (2 sac's).

My FET's were $3500 + assisted Hatching $500 + refreeze free if you have any to be refrozen $700

My high risk OB says my metformin is a MUST to control my insulin, especially with twins. Even on the metformin I am having blood sugar issues, but nothing yet to cause me to be put on insulin.
Good luck!

I have ONLY had success with FET's. After many failed fresh cycles we switched to freeze all cycles. The first attempt resulted in my DD and now I am currently PG with twins (from one frostie!). I still have 20 eggs frozen too.
FET's are MUCH easier on the body than a fresh cycle. You only need ...

Bjones- Oh no! I am so sorry sweetie. Pre-E so early... I am sure you must be very nervous. Being the mother of a 26 weeker born under 1lb (and a NICU survivor for 4 months) I can imagine your anxiety level is a little elevated. Just really try to take things easy and we will hope and pray for the ...

here is one for you.. I transferred 1 embie in my FET cycle in November. My first beta came back at 414...I knew something was fishy...At my 7 week scan, I had 2 sac's! My one frostie split into 2 sac's identical twins. I too was saying "I DON'T WANT TWINS" but here I am at 16 weeks. I knew there is ...

I forgot to mention the interesting part about my apt on Monday...
The Hi risk doc is very strongly implying that my twins are NOT identical. Apparently spliting of an egg into 2 separate sacs after day 5 is not very common. Which seems IMPOSSIBLE since I only put in one embryo. The only way these ...

I was just told I have MTHFR and I am 13 weeks pregnant. I have been on baby asprin since transfer and folic acid, but now I am also on lovenox injections to thin my blood. Good luck on Friday.

I went today for my 1st trimester scan and for the first time, the doc was happy how everything is going. The babies looked great and everything is measuring right at 13 weeks. They are going to be monitoring me very closely. Cervical checks every 2 weeks until 24 weeks and then weekly checks to ...

I felt nothing until week 8 when my m/s kicked in. Good Luck!
