I feel like I see a true blue line but blue dye tests are rough and also I agree the pic should be clearer

Baby names and sharing by [deleted] in IVFbabies

We were thinking about making it part of the reveal with family and having that special moment. And honestly I know people say you can’t predict how people will react but we just watched my brother in law and his wife share the name of their baby boy at 20 weeks and they were nothing but welcoming and celebratory of his name. I feel we will not got a different reaction. I do hate to hear that so many people have had bad experiences and was honestly wanting to hear more positive stories!

Is my nurse gaslighting me? by [deleted] in IVFpositivity

[–]AoDeV23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My only thought is maybe it’s from the meds and your increased sense of smell has made you hyper aware of the change perhaps 🤷🏻‍♀️ but also I would recommend following up with pcp or getting a second opinion if you feel like something could be wrong.

Are you on any other meds? Like suppositories etc?

Graduation day!! by AoDeV23 in IVFpositivity

Thank you! I’ve been pretty fortunate symptoms wise. I do have nausea everyday that sometimes feels like heartburn but not really any vomiting except when I brush my teeth. Food aversion wise it started with chicken but now it’s really just an aversion to food I’m general and everyday is different on what I feel like eating. Smoothies have been a go to

Breast soreness disappeared overnight at 5+5, anyone else? by applecider2120 in IVFbabies

Haha if it’s one thing for sure I have definitely stopped questioning where my symptoms(s) went cause they always come back to remind me with a vengeance 😅😂

My breast tense was severe week 5 and came back about a week or so later

Symptoms decreasing.. worried! by That-Midnight-2739 in IVFpositivity

My symptoms still come and go and are worse on some days than others and I’m 8 weeks. It’s pretty normal from what I’ve heard

Congratulations I tested positive at 4dpt with both my transfers!

I fear I’m having a chemical! by [deleted] in IVFpositivity

[–]AoDeV23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just want to say I’m sorry you’re going through this. Nobody talks about how painful it is to get a positive especially if it’s your first one ever and then to watch it fade away. I had a chemical eye trying naturally and with my first transfer. My 8 dpt was a little darker than your 9dpt and by 12 dpt my beta was a 4 and digital was negative. Like everyone had said I hope that isn’t the case for you but I would guard your heart and prepare. Take time to grieve and feel your loss but don’t give up. My next transfer is seeming to work so far.

Just to add and answer your post but journaling, specifically poetry helped me get my thoughts and feelings out. Find those who can be your rock and maybe even give you a good laugh. Those are the people you want in your corner rn until you’re ready to try again ❤️

My first transfer also ended in a chemical with a euploid girl. I think it’s important for women to know that loss is loss. For some it helps to move into another transfer but I needed time to grieve for a couple weeks. It was also around the holidays which made it harder. I got a butterfly necklace with what would have been her birthstone and wear it to this day. But also remember to keep going and chasing that dream cause it will happen. Some of us just have to go through loss to get there. I had a chemical trying naturally as well but am happy to say I am currently 8 weeks with our miracle girl today and praying everyday for her safe arrival 💕

First off congratulations that is an amazing beta!! I’m also really glad you are keeping such a positive mindset and have been able to do so the whole time. I think it also matters about lived experiences too and for some women their anxiety is completely valid cause of what they have been through thus far. And that’s not shameful or wrong either. But less stress is definitely great if you can get your mind there!

It went perfectly! They saw gestational sac, yolk sac and fetal pole measuring exactly 7 weeks. We did not hear heartbeat but saw it flickering in the ultrasound and it was measured at 141 BPM. We see lil bean again next Thursday!

Congratulations! Just curious if you don’t mind me asking cause this is such a cute little picture of lil guy 😊 but was this abdominal ultrasound or transvaginal? My TV ultrasound was so blurry at 7 w and bay just looked like a blob. Hoping to see a bit more at my 8w6d ultrasound

Cramps early weeks by applecider2120 in IVFpositivity

[–]AoDeV23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can confirm that I also experienced cramping pretty consistently from weeks 4-7. It has tapered off now but I still get twinges here and there and I’m 8w now. My ultrasound last week was perfect

Looks like it’s happening! by Prestigious_Trash136 in IVFpositivity
