Pregnancy after Long Term TTC - Sept/Oct 2007

[sazzafrazz]

Oh Mako, sorry to hear things are being rushed but hoping that it is all for the best. Wishing you and DH all the luck in the world for tomorrow when your precious bubs arrives!!!! We will all be thinking of you. Take care of yourself and looking forward to hearing all your good news when you get home again!

[DJTTC]

Mako - I am wishing you all the best for today, I can't believe your little bub will finally be in your arms.
I really hope everything goes well & that you are both healthy in the end because that is the most important thing.
I can understand that you must be extremely nervous but obviously bub will be better out than in cuddled in his mummy's arms.
I can't wait to hear how it all goes!

Hi ladies. Just wondering if I could jump in and join you. I have been TTC with fertility treatment for about 16 months and on Friday we finally got our BFP. This was our second FET and they were our last 2 embryo's. Our stim cycle resulted in a blighted ovum and D&C and our second FET was BFN. I couldn't believe that this one was a BFP and I am still trying to let in sink in. I go for my first scan on 6/11/07 and I am counting down the days. My beta result was 759 so I can't wait and find out if one or two decided to stick around.

Anyway enought about me. I will have to go back a few pages and try and figure out where everyone is at with their pregnancy.

Mako- I hope everything went well today sweetness. I thought you might have gone in after I didn't hear back from you. I am thinking about you and I can't wait to hear about the birth of your little man.

ktgirl...

I replied to your pregnancy announcement but just wanted to say how wonderful it is to see you in here!

well done chickie!

[onthefly]

Welcome ktgirl, and congratulations!

[sonya1]

welcome ktgirl!!!! your levels sound great!

Mako - all the best for your earlier than expected family! hope all has gone well and you have your gorgeous little bub in your arms at this very moment...

[Ltl Panda]

WOW MAKO

I am not in here for a couple of days and look at what I miss.......just to think that the next time we hear from you, you will be a mum....CONGRATULATIONS.

Ktgirl, welcome to the team, all the girls in here are great.

DJTTC, I guess you are next hun, it could happen any time now, hope you have you bags packed...... hehehe.

Lismith, glad your scan went well, its always great to get reassurance from a great scan.

Sonya, marcellus, Kotare, kimbe and Sazzafraz, hope you ladies are all doing just great, and baby is giving you happy vibes, even if they come with emotional tears.

DH got to feel midget move yesterday while lying in bed, it was flexing for dad apparently. I was told i looked skinny and was all belly, that was nice, bring on the compliments....I am getting very inpatient at work and cannot concentrate, just cannot be bothered anymore. Thant’s it for me.... talk to you soon.

[DJTTC]

Mako - I can't stop thinking about how you went yesterday, it's going to be in impatient week for all of us to wait to hear from you.

Ktgirl - a huge Congratulations to you on you BFP!!!
It is always wonderful to welcome someone new.

Ltl Panda - isn't it so special when Dad's can feel their bub, how far along are you now?
Don't worry I've been told I'm all baby too but it doesn't have any affect on size of bub though.

Well I guess I'm next girls, arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
Just kidding it's finally starting to sink in that I could have bub at anytime.
I have pretty much packed the bag, got my hair coloured & cut yesterday, I'm having a bikini wax tomorrow & had our last antenatel class last night so I can feel a little more relaxed now about when she is going to arrive.
Mind you there are plenty more things I would like to do before hand, lol.

Yay that your DH got to feel bubs Ltl Panda - was that first time? Mine has felt Jelly a few times, but she often just squirms away and stops moving when he puts his hand on my belly - naughty thing.

The pressure's on Jo... just kidding. Great that you're getting all organised - even 'down there'. I must remember to do that when it's my turn coming up - it's one of those things i'd probably forget though. i know noone else will probably care, but it matters to ME. it's hard though when you can't actually see your nether regions anymore...

Yay on the scan Lismith - wont' be long till you're feeling bubs as well.

Hope you're feeling ok this week Kimbe

Hope all the rest of you are doing well!

[lismith25]

Oh wow I can't believe what has happened since Monday.

Mako - I hope everything went well and you finally have bub in your arms wow I know you were close to your edd but it kind of makes everything seem that little bit more real for me now...yikes

DJ - yep the pressures on now lol, I think the moral of this story is to be prepared and it sounds like you are certainly there, should pencil in a bikini wax now so that I remember

ktgirl - Congrats and heres to a h&h 9months

Ltl Panda - thats excellent that dh finally got a feel, I cant wait for the movements to start now.

Big hellos to Marcellus, sazz, sonya, kimbe, kotare and anyone ive missed i hope you are all coming along nicely.

Me - still happy, think the stress of the first trimester was just wearing me down, i now am well beaming just a little and the nausea is definitely subsiding which is such a relief, I can honestly say I had the first trimester blues, but hopefully thats all gone now. The 2nd trimester is calling yahhooo....11days to go.

Oh and I have been hormonally shouting at dh a bit, but I cant say I dont enjoy that

Hi girls
Welcome to the gang ktgirl, hope you feel at home in here. Dont worry if you find it hard to catch up with everyones happenings, I still do!
I am champing at the bit wanting to know how Mako is going. I guess she will come on as soon as she can...
It is so nice to come on here and find everyone is doing well.
Jo being organised and kinda relaxed (not to mention neat and trimmed as well lol!)
Lismith feeling much better ( I still have hormonal rages so dont worry too much. )
Ltlpanda's DH feeling your midget now. very exciting for you both,
Hi to Sonya, Marcellus, kotare, kimbe and eveyone else!!!
Things are pretty much the same for me here. Still working but down to 3 shifts a week and thinking happily of when I might stop altogether. Not sure when yet but looking forward to that. I am really looking forward to getting the wait down to single digets...less than 11 weeks now so nearly there. My best friend is organising a baby shower for me in 5 weeks time so that should be fun too. She is a funny thing and so totally unorganised so it will be interesting to see...
Last time I saw GP he squeezed and felt to see if he could tell which way up bugalugs is. Apparently s/he was head down but will continue to shift up and down for a few weeks yet. Last night, in the recliner, I watched as s/he turned the other way up. DH was amazed. he was trying to keep one eye on the tv and one on my bare belly but everytime he looked away bubs moved again. So funny, when he saw a big movement he pointed it out to me as though I would have missed it!!! At tennis on the weekend ( no I didnt play, just supervised!) my tshirt was moving all around the place and I really wanted to say "hey everyone look at this" but felt a bit silly so I didnt. I certainly had practice with babys that day with looking after everyone elses while they played. I think ours was a bit jealous actually as s/he was kicking the baby I was holding LOTS!
thats about is from me. hope you are all going great!!!

Hi all,
No time really, should have my head in the books, but i'm bursting to tell you all. It seems we are having a little blue baby. Yep, the scan apparently showed a boy, but we couldn't see - he was being shy. They Dr said it was most definitely there - so I guess he knows.
I would have been bursting to tell you if it was a girl too - neither of us cared either way. But i am liking the idea of a boy too. We don't think we'll tell anyone yet (or at all, possibly). It might be a nice thing for the two (three) of us to keep between us.

I am reading all your posts though and looking forward to getting back into personals soon!

Take care all and best wishes for a great week
Jo

[sonya1]

wow Jo! how exciting for you..... a beautiful boy waiting to meet you both.

congrats hun on another important part of your special journey

much too tired to do anymore personals. was going to cook silverside and heaps of roast veg but i just got a pamphlet for local chinese - home delivered! that made the decision. buy takeaway, no cooking and Dh can take leftovers for lunch, so no lunches to make either... woo hoo!

[ktgirl]

Hi girls. Thanks for the welcome. I am feeling pretty good today but did get a little bout of nausea mid morning. Luckily it soon passed. Otherwise just have incredibly sore boobs. Ouch I like to lay on my tummy to sleep but that isn't happening anymore.

Sonya - Enjoy your Chinese mmm sounds yummy.

Kotare - Congratulations on expecting a little boy. That is so exciting

Sazz - I think by the time I have a big belly moving about I will want to show everyone too. Lol at your bubby kicking the baby you were holding.

lismith - Woo hoo on almost being in the second trimester. I am glad to hear that you are starting to feel better.

Jo - Wow you are organized. How exciting that you are next!!!

Ltl Panda - That is so wonderful that you DH got to feel the baby move. How special.

Monnie - Thanks for your reply in my Pg announcement. How are you and your little prince going?

Hi to everyone I have missed. Hope you are all having a great day.

[monnie]

hey ktgirl

I'm a tummy sleeper too...thought after having Felix I could go back to sleeping on my tummy...but alas my engorged boobs stop me!!!! Ahhhhh!!!

Felix is doing really well...a real cutie...doing lots of 'talking' and beautiful smiles that melt your heart!

Jo...can't believe your next! Fantastic!

To all others...hope you are doing well!
