Hi girls,

I've been watching this thread, but didn't want to get on until my betas were consistantly doubling, and they are!! Haylie I am also due October 24! I have been reading about all your u/s and it makes me so excited for mine. I have not been having too many symptoms just slight cramping and sore chest. Each day when I wake up I wonder if this is the day I'll get sick or be super hungry or whatever. I just wanted to say hi and congrats to everyone. I am so happy for all of us who get their positives after all of us going through so much!

Hi!

I have been posting on another thread for the last couple weeks & can't believe I have missed this one!!!

I am due October 3 - would love to be added to the list. It will be spring here in Australia, so even though it won't be a fall baby I hope I can still join in!!!! I had my first scan last Friday which showed one baby with a hb of 143. I have been reading everyones posts in between running to the bathroom to vomit. I am glad to have symptoms so it feels like I am pregnant, but I feel like total crap! I vomit all morning, have nausea for the rest of the day, and feel like sleeping all the time. I am having trouble eating as I have gone off lots of foods. Before I got pregnant I told everyone that I would never complain if I got pregnant!!!

It is so exciting to share this experience with you all.

Thanks girls for your welcome.

Karen I never thought the FET would happen I was not prepared at all for the result. I was under huge emotional stress at the time (my DH left and told me it's over, the house has been sold and well not sure about my future) The clinic only put 1 embie back in which was a grade 4 cell, at the time they told me it didn't look good so not for 1 minute did I think it would work but hey a miracle happened. Now I have a new focus and can actually see light at the end of the tunell. If DH doesn't want to be part of our lives then so be it, I'll cope I have to now for my baby. Anyway enough of moaning I'm thrilled to be pregnant after all this time.

As for symptons I feel nauseous but haven't actually been sick and have sore bb's. I just can't wait for my scan to make sure everything is okay, it's just as bad as the dreaded 2ww waiting for the 1st u/s. Miss Molly congrats on seeing your wee one I bet it was amazing!! A spring baby is lovely while we will be preparing for the cold winter you can look forward to a nice warm summer

Must run, I am off to visit a friend for the weekend. Hope you all have a good weekend

Take care
Haylie

Hi girls,

Met some of you over on the due October thread. I am due October 15th and my scan is March 7th. My clinic only scans after 8 weeks.
This is very nerve wracking and I'm constantly nervous of a M/C.
My previous pregnancies ended that way which is why I feel like that.
I'm really hoping that this is my time and everything will be alright.

I've not told very many people at all this time. I'm waiting until after scan for once.

I'm really excited deep down and can't wait until I can shout from the rooftops.

Congratulations to all!

I am 4 weeks and 5 days pregnant and will be due October 28th.

I too have been feeling VERY constipated and bloated.... *sigh* That's really the only discomfort I have right now... and I'm starting to feel very tired & sleepy lately... other than that, no other hardcore symptoms have kicked in yet. =)

There are becoming so may of us that I may have to attempt some sort of chart! October is just bursting!!!!!!!!

Congrats to everyone and I just love having you all here to share this with!!

Did anyone see Aunty's BFN on the other page. :( I felt so bad to see that since it sounds like she has really been a major support to so many. Makes me say my thankful prayer one more time today!

Haylie~ You sound like you are taking everything so well! I admire your PMA! What a lucky baby to have a mommy like you. The DH may or may not ever know what he is missing but it is his loss. I'm sorry you have that challenge during such a wonderful time in your life! Best of luck!

Take care ladies!!!!

Hi AnnaLovesJoe - welcome to the board and congratulations!! Glad you hear you aren't feeling bad. When is your first U/S?

Halyie, I'm really sorry to hear about what happened with your DH - but everything happens for a reason. There must be a greater plan for you and your little one! You have an excellent attitude - and that's what's important - take care of yourself and the baby :)

I've been having prolonged discomfort today - not really cramps - just a heavy/pulling kind of feeling. No spotting or anything so I'm sure I'm just overreacting - as usual :)

Boy, it would be great to have a chart of everyone - it is getting difficult to keep track of all these babies! My dr. confirmed today - due date is Oct 27th.

Everyone have a great weekend!
Karen

Hi

Congratulations to everyone!! I hope it is okay for me to join the thread - I am four weeks pregnant - due at the end of October - having first scan on Wed 28th Feb. I have been reading all your posts but I am so amazed at being pregnant and sooooo scared of a miscarriage (last pregnancy ended that way) that I was almost too worried to discuss my good fortune with others in case I jinxed it and my little one goes away.

Having read all of your posts and seeing how positive and happy everyone is I think it is about time I came out of the closet and started enjoying being pregnant (we have been trying for about five years so I think we have waited long enough for our triumph!!). So - here I am announcing it to you all .. I"M PREGNANT EVERYBODY ... gosh that feels funny - I have been yearning to say it for so long.

I am looking forward to sharing everyone's experiences along the way - I have already been reassured by several of you - I have had some spotting and felt very miserable but now I see that it is not so unusual and am feeling more relaxed.

Thanks to everyone so far and I look forward to getting to know you all

Hi all,

Sorry I have been MIA for a few days. had tons going on at home. So how is everyone feeling? I have been getting morning sickness but is has not been as bad as my first pregnancy so I am not complaining. Tomorroow is my US I can not wait!!!!!!!! The only bummer is that my DH can not come with me because he has contract meetings that he can not get out of so I will be going alone :( .

Welcome to all the new commers!!! It is so wonderful to see a large group of us who have found sucess.

Also, Kbarry, I agree with the list idea. If it would be OK with everyone I would like to be responsible for the list if that is OK. Please let me know if anyone forsee's a problem. I just want to be able to know everyones due date and dates of appointments. If you all are OK with me taking this responsbility please let me know and PM me your dates!

KBarry, I think you have a US tomorrow too, good luck, we can compare notes later!!

Mia- How you feeling?

Ann- Hope you are doing well.

Maybebaby- CONGRATS!!!! There is a lot of PMA on this board! Welcome!

Haylie- So glad that things worked out and I truely think you are a survivor! DH will one day realize what he did.

Welcome Shanny and Ana!

I know I have forgotten some but I have to run. Please let me know your thoughts on the list.

Sending you all hugs!
Erin

Thanks girls for your kind words

Welcome maybebaby. I know what you mean about actually saying the words 'I'm pregnant', the other day I was saying them over and over to myself in the shower with a massive grin on my face!!!

Erin I think it would be fab if you took over the chart, thanks honey I wouldn't have a clue

As for me my due date is 24th Oct and my 1st u/s is 8th March

Take care all

Hello all,

Just returned from my first u/s - they called it a very early scan (I'm only 5w 2d). Looks like I was wrong - it's not twins - just one gestational sac with a yolk sac in the middle. Since it is so early, the dr. said next week's scan will have the fetus and heartbeat. Waiting on bloodwork results...

Thanks, Erin, for volunteering to take on the list/chart. My due date is Oct. 27th - next u/s is March 5th.

Still not feeling any major symptoms. My chest is sore on and off - seems to change each day. Some occasional cramping - that's about it.

Welcome and congrats Maybebaby!! I'm like you - we haven't told anyone yet. Probably in a few weeks.

Hope everyone has a great week!
Karen

Hi Ladies,

This is going to be a quick post from me this morning as I just got to work from having my ultrasound. OK, found out we are having twins! One of the embryos split so they are identical twins. They are measuring at 6 weeks and 4 days exactly and the heartbeats are 117 and 112. My due date is October 18th but they said now that I am having twins they are thinking more at the end of September. We are still in shock at this time. We are excited but also nervous. I have my next scan on March 12th and I will let you all know what happens!
Thanks for all the well wishes!

Erin
