Pholi how did your scan go??? I so hope that it went well.
I'm currently going through a scare. My hcg level has decreased since my last test. Having another one tomorrow. I don't know what my dr is going to suggest if it continues to decrease. I want to ask for a scan / ultra sound, but will wait for results.
I know that there is nothing that I can do. What will be will be, but I'm feeling heartbroken already that my bub is dying :'(
I'm sorry you're going through this, hopeful mum. After everything you've been through to fall pregnant and now this I really hope things improve for you. How far along are you now?
Big hugs hopeful mum xoxo just awful I remember going through countless times all this worry. The only way to get through is in the moment day by day and let out your emotions xXxX
Goodluck spoons, hang in there. I hope u get a great scan result xox
Goodluck worrywort! Very exciting :-) enjoy it all xox
How's your beautiful boy mildez ?
My news is I delivered a healthy baby Girl on February 24th at 4:04am <3:-)<3, named Kiara weighing 8lbs, 6. And a long 51cms! She's got the longest legs!
A lot of fuzzy medium blonde hair that sticks up too :-D so cute!
Love her to peices! All yrs of the losses and heartbreak and awful worring during preg was worth it.
Oh and can you believe this? When the nurses checked out her placenta after birth it was HEART SHAPED!?!?! ... My hubby piped up because she was made with love :-) hee hee ...
Keep going girls, day by day is all you can do.
Thank you so much Vic and spoons :-)
Just keep riding the wave for as long as possible spoons and when you think you're going to give up push yourself a lil further! It's the only way it happend for us in the end, A LOT of persistence!
Everyone has their own boundaries but I found I had to push through mine.
Big hugs and tons of baby dust *******
Hi ladies. Well my hcg has decreased to 1800, from 1900 yesterday.
Ivf nurses were unable to contact fs after 4:20pm so decided that I should do another bt on Monday. I was able to change my fs ultrasound appt from wed arvo to mon arvo. Once I started getting emotional about my hcg lowering, she was wonderful and found a spot for me at 3pm. He has surgery booked out until lunch time and I know he is really busy.
So Mon i will find out one way or another if I still have a bub growing inside. The nurse had mentioned that maybe it is due to one of my two transferred embryos not continuing. I am so praying that this is the case.
I will let you know how it goes, good or bad. For now I am going to focus on positive thoughts about there still being a bub growing :-)
Positive thoughts for all you wonderful ladies in your continuing pregnancies. Each day is precious xo.
Hopeful mum, it's very scary. I really hope your scan on Monday is good news.
My scan was bad news. The embryo had stopped developing around 6 weeks (I should have been 9 1/2. It probably never had a heartbeat.
I had a D&C yesterday. The remains will be tested for chromosomal disorders. I will have BTs to track my hormones and see my FS in a month or so for results and to make a plan.
I am very sad.
I'm also really ****ed off that I got that far and have to go right back to the beginning in terms of IVF, as we have no embryos left. And I'm ****ed off that had I know this 3 weeks ago I could have at least enjoyed a drink and eaten a salad on my holiday .
But mostly sad.
And DP has already initiated the 'we can't afford this forever, it's taking a toll on the family, I'm under a lot of stress as the money earner ' conversation.
It sucks. I totally get the feeling of having to go back to the beginning. In some ways it feels like it's starting all over again. I tried to comfort myself by saying at least I GOT pregnant this time. Be kind to yourself and feel as sad as you need to. Tell hubby that you're too sad to talk about that right now. But you promise you will discuss it with him when your grief isn't so raw.
We have to deal with it now because of other financial consideration (moving house, etc) which are coming up soon and have deadlines for decisions next week.
So I just have to bite the bullet and talk about it regardless.
Pholi I am so sorry to read your news I don't really know what to say except I hope your future has another baby in store for you.
Hopeful mum I hope you have some news now and its good news. HCG levels taper off at a certain gestation. I hope that is all it is.
Sarah4Kurt I can't tell you how happy I am to read your brilliant news. I bet she is just beautiful. I hope everything went well with the birth and she is settling in well. What does your daughter think of her?
WW I hope all is well and your holding your precious baby now. What a roller Coaster you have been on.
Hello to everyone else I have not read all the posts but I hope everyone is having smooth sailing pregnancies.
I can't believe my baby is 10weeks old. I put DH referral in for a vasectomy the other day. Its the end of an era for us. I usually get pregnant once a year just its taken 2.5-3yrs to get a sticky baby so we are 100% done. A bt sad really but I am also so happy to put ttc behind us.
Hi mildez. I won't know anything until Monday afternoon, 3pm or so. I'm only about 6.5 weeks so my levels shouldn't be going down :'( Well that's wha I read. I haven't stastarted blebleeding (tmi) or having cramping. This could mean I'm still pregnant or that my body isn't getting rid of my deceased bub/s.
I am trying no to think abou it, staying positive. The next 2 days are going to be worse than the tww :-(
Will post outcome on Monday arvo, good or sad. Have a wonderful weekend lovely ladies xo.
Because of my age, over 40, I am planning on trying again if this ends in heartache. I won't have time to to think about myself, just to get some lovely eggs and embryos going again.
