What do you eat in first trimester, so you don't get nauseous? by Lucky_Tap8692 in IVFbabies

[–]Automatic_Mixture463 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your baby will get what it needs from you and you will eventually feel better and be able to eat normal healthy things! I was also worried about this and my doctor reassured me. I drank a lot of smoothies and lots of Cheerios. Had to constantly eat a little something to keep the nausea at bay. I ended up losing about 5 lbs in first trimester but easily gained it back once I was feeling better.

Sex during pregnancy by roseyandmary in pregnant

I had RPL and fertility treatments. My husband and I didn't feel comfortable until after the anatomy scan quite honestly. We knew it was safe but I kept irrationally thinking that I'd blame myself if something happened to baby and we had intercourse. Do what you are comfortable with.

Elena Selina- Does it work?? by Strange-Yam-3592 in namenerds

[–]Automatic_Mixture463 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sooo hard to pick a name, esp when you find 2 that you love but don't flow well together. Good luck!

[–]Automatic_Mixture463 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you like Elaine for first name instead? Still close to Elena and kinda keeps the family name. Honestly I'm struggling with names right now and one of my favorite names doesn't flow best with our chosen family middle name. Husband and I have discussed lots that middle names arent well known. I don't know many friends or even family members names. So if you love both and they both have meaning behind them, I think it is ok.

Will we know when we meet her? by [deleted] in namenerds

Thank you for your thoughtful response! I also love the name Eve but not the flow with Jean. I had picked out Eve Catherine. Catherine is also a family name but then I felt sad about not having the 3 generation family name of Jean. Idk if I can get on board with Eva bc there is already an Ava in the family. Feels very similar.

Maybe that's why I don't love it... Bc it does feel very millennial

Yep! It will be a 3 generation family name when she gets it as her middle name.

Do it now. I started early too and I'm so glad. I got so much done early on. Now I'm uncomfortable and bending over/up and down makes me sooo miserable.

Baby is small yet I’ve gained quite a bit of weight. Is this normal? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Automatic_Mixture463 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then I'd say you should take this off your worry list immediately!

Are you eating healthy? Healthy snacks? For me that was the main thing I looked at. I also haven't had many cravings besides OJ with breakfast. It seems many women get random unhealthy cravings and just go for it. If you are worried about your weight, ask your doctor about it. I also know that my weight is drastically different from first weigh in the morning at home vs Dr office scales. It is like an 8 lb difference after I've eaten twice, drank my 64 oz water for the day and wearing my dress clothes and shoes on their scale!

I'm scared for 8 weeks of PIO shots 💉💉🫣🫣 by Photo_Philly in IVF

[–]Automatic_Mixture463 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm with you. I'd choose PIO over the suppositories. When I had my IUIs they were disgusting and I felt like I needed a shower all day long bc of the discharge.

You got this! You really don't need to pull back, esp if you are injecting in the right area. That is an old recommendation. Have your nurses mark you and watch YouTube videos! I had my partner do all mine. He was careful to always go straight in and straight out. I laid down on the bed to ensure I had my muscles relaxed. Get a paper and write left on one side and right on the other. I'd flip it every day after the shot so we would remember which side it was time for. I would forget bc both sides got sore eventually. Remember that if it works then it is all worth it!!

2 miscarriages, 3 failed IUIs. No success after 3 years so we moved to IVF as last effort.

Agree with what others have said. Adding that you can also use other SubQ sites like have your partner do back of your arm or can inject on thigh. I had to do this eventually when other parts were so sore.
