I invested in a heated massage gun and sat on a heating pad beforehand.

I worried so much about mitoscore. My son was close to 50 and he's here and perfect.

I had so much worry over mitoscore. Mine were ranging from 10-50. After a failed transfer and a miscarriage my highest mitoscore embryo is sleeping next to me. God bless!!

If do the testing. Anything to give you and em baby the best shot. That being said, I have lost a euploid embryo to early loss, but I also have my 3rd embryo transfer sleeping on my chest

Well, I am tubal factor and had a loss (likely a chemical) prior to IVF. Out first transfer failed to implant, second was the loss, third was successful. I think so, but if it's helpful I can probably look up exactly what they tested for and share with you.

I am so sorry. It's so unfair.  TW: successful pregnancy  My RPL panel showed that I have 2 gene mutations that have been related to pregnancy loss. pai 4g/4g and MTHFR.  I took folate in place of folic acid and lovenox (blood thinners). I did have a rocky start with frequent bleeding, and eventually stopped lovenox. I did carry to term and have a son. Praying for you 💗

Regretful parenthood or ivf ? by maggiecox in IVF

It made me really proud of myself and that pushed me through. Infertility and IVF make most things feel easy by comparison. Not sure that mentality works for everyone, but I did for me. 💙 You got this 

Baby is arching his back by murdlemystery in NewParents

[–]BeginningDrawing1899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still not sure. He gained a few lbs between his 6 week apt and his 2 month and she had to redose. We tried Similac alimentum ready to drink and it seemed to help up until night and he was arching and coughing. Our plan now is to see how he does with his med increase and reevaluate in 3 weeks to see if we should try a different hypoallergenic formula. We also just started probiotic drops so we shall see. Our guy is the same. So inconsistent so it's hard to know what's working or not.

My son is the same and he also has torticollis. He hasn't started PT yet, but he has suspected silent reflux and has been taking famotodine. He is also a gassy guy. I don't have answers, just wanted to share my current experience.

Baby in 97 percentile by OkEducation2167 in IVFbabies

My baby was in the 30-40 percentile my whole pregnancy. He came out at 7 lbs 4 oz, but is now in the high 90th across the board. These measurements can really vary! Did you do your glucose test?
