To make our decision easier/harder depending on how you look at it... All are doing well with growth and heartbeats. We will be going to a specialist soon to discuss all the details and then make a decision. This is probably the most difficult decision we will ever make!

I haven't told anyone at ...

Hi Cory,

Congratulations! It is normal to not feel all the symptoms of being pregnant (it's still early though). I had little with my first. It was about 8 wks and then had no appetite and a little nausea.
If I were you, I would ask your dr or the nurses at the center about the cramping. They may ...

Hang in there! I'll cross my fingers everything will work out fine.

My doc didn't even check heartbeats at the first ultrasound (5 wks). I think he was too shocked by the amount there. I know they all had heartbeats. After I left I realized I didn't even get a photo of them. :(

Good luck ...

OK, forget what I said before. I have been so sick for the last couple days! I could barely eat saltines or drink gingerale...nevermind anything else.

I was so miserable. I finally called the dr and got a perscription for an anti-nausea pill (it desolves in your mouth). I don't know what I would ...

Thank you everyone!

I've decided I can't worry about making any decisions right now until I see what happens. We may not need to make any choice.

I'll let you know what happens next week....

1st IVF was 3 but none took. Soft cycle was 3 and 1 took. This time we did 4 - all took plus one split! This is very rare for my age...especially a split. I know the doc feels bad but they usually know best. Good luck with you!

Thanks Malinka,
I am excited yet terrified. I might have to do a selective process purely for the health of the babies. It will be extremely difficult either way. We'll see at my next appt.

Anyone have to deal with this issue?

Quintuplets!!!

Hi, I just found out the 4 placed embri's all took, and a split ucccured. OMG We were not prepared for this! (Especially since 0 out of 3 was previous) The doctor highly recommends selective removal for the health of the babies and myself. There may be a chanse some may not stay. We will see in 2 ...
