i had lots of unusal pains - yes stretching it is
Fig - I can so relate to that IVF ovary pain. I also had ovary pain between 5-10 weeks despite not actually being on IVF when we conceived our little miracle. My fertility specialist explained that it is ovary pain - and it happens at this stage because your ovaries are supporting your pregnancy up until 10 weeks when the placenta is developed enough to take over. So your poor ovary will be pumping out the hormones. It's a good sign. My left one was sore at the beginning of this preg and when I had my 7 week ultrasound they confirmed that the egg had come from the left one.
Thanks Tigg.
Where's Danni! - I think she must have reached 20 weeks by now!
Fig - I have had the ovary pain, as Kar said the ovaries are working to support the pregnancy in additional to all the work they have had on them during stim and pickup. Add to that the normal stretching as things grow and it can be a bit uncomfortable. Both my OB and FS mentioned this and said it is perfectly normal. Plus I have the added bonus of the odd adhesion stretching along the way..Youch.
I can't believe I am 9 weeks already, only 3 weeks until the big announcement
Wow...Jane...9 weeks!!! That is so fantastic!!! I remember when you first announced it on BB...didn't seem that long ago at all!
Thanks so much to everyone about the reassurance of ovary pain (not that I brought it up...but I began to experience something like that today)...kept dashing to the toilet "just in case"...
Thankfully...it's sounding like it is all pretty normal...I didn't know that about the ovaries being in charge until the placenta takes over...
Phew!
Jane and Kar thank you so much for that. Its so great to be able to ask questions and get other people experiences. I was beginning to think I had done some damage to my ovaries (I have had a burst cycst in the past so probably a bit paranoid about those things).
Kar: I am amazed they could tell which ovary the egg came from - the things they can do these days!
Monnie: hope i didn't jinx you :)
Just poppin in to chk on u all again...
It's great to see so many new recruits in here, lots of activity, hope there's more LTTTC girls to come. :)
Oh wow Kar, what a lovely baby bump. Yay on 30wks. :)
Xlnt news Monnie.
Wow Danni, I would've been freakin if I'd have gotten that HCG reading, as my IVF clinic said they consider 100 at 4wks to be +ve, & here u are, a wonderful success story, thats great. Yay on 20wks. :)
Wow Chris, 27wks, that time feels like it has flown, although prob doesn't to u. :)
Oh Monnie, what a way to announce it, what a great idea, hehe & yes I have to agree with Chris, PMSL at ur MIL.
Hey Fig
You didn't jinx me at all...I was just so relieved that you posted so I got to read all of it before I went into a major tailspin!
That's what I love about BB!!!
I agree Kar...your baby bump is gorgeous!
Danni...well done on 20 weeks...I've followed your pregnancy throughout and it's been a real inspiration...great stuff!
Shell...well done on a wonderful TTC #2 journey...congratulations!
To everyone else...hope you are doing well...

Thnx girls, but i dont want to intrude here, as didnt LTTTC this time, so i have an ancmnt thread u can post in if u wish. :)
Hey Shell
I don't think you are intruding at all...even though I'm so early in my first pregnancy, given how long it took us to get to this point, I have had some worries about whether I'll ever be able to conceive again...
You've given me much hope! Thankyou!
Awww thnx Monnie, that's lovely, glad I could help, hehe. Here's to a sticky bub for all. :)
Oh & yes I'm getting those ovary twinges too & got them last time too, it was the reason I did another HPT, coz first was -ve 3 days earlier.
SHELL: Congrats lovey.. good to see you here.. heres to h&h 8 months.

AWW A CHRISTMAS bubba for Shez - I am so excited for you now :P
thanks Trish... It still seems so surreal and so far off.. I'm sure I'll get a huge shock if I go into labour spontaneously anytime soon!!!
Hi Trish
I did what you siad but then it says can’t display page..so I don’t know!
Monnie – its reassuring everyone saying the same thing about te pain and my FS confirmed same today.
Well I haven’t posdted for a while as I had the last two days of work Tuesday and Wednesday. I have had constant morning sickness all day since late last week and food wise – I’m struggling. Until I put the food in my mouth I never know if its going to make me feel worse. I am soo tired, exhausted actually and both days I had off I slept most it. Lucky work is quiet so I didn’t have to worry about what was gong on there.
I saw my FS today and had my 6 weeks scan, have two gorgeous little pictures, one of the womb and one of the heart beat monitor. Ladies I can not express how happy I was to see the little bugger there, with a heart beat in his/her little sack growing away. It was just amazing. I now believe that I’m pregnant. (Oh and singleton not twins).
Due date is at 7 or 8 August. Although it was the size of 6.5 days so a little bigger than the average which is great as that means its growing well.
Well done Shell.
Congrats to everyone else on your progress, its great to hear about all the little bumps out there.
Shez what an amazing chrissie present wow. What a great reminder every year and double the present for baby – christmas and b’day he he he.
Must fly catching up on work which is good as its keeping me occupied and stopping me from pullig out my 6 week scan picture to stare at lol
