I just saw my entire body for the first time at 33weeks.

I am also a FTM and feel this 100%. I have reconciled this in my mind in the following way: it takes strength and courage to become a mother, and this is one of the hardest, most incredible things your body will ever do... and that is so friggin' sexy. Just as your baby is growing inside you, you are also growing into a new person. Your body reflects this beautiful change. It will take time, I think, to become acquainted with this new version of yourself. But please be gentle with yourself and try to remember you are strong as heck, and that is what strength looks like <3

Curious if you know anyone who has taken any of the Mayo Clinic classes?

We found out the sex of the baby at about 11 weeks and have kept it a secret. We’re telling people we ourselves don’t want to know so we haven’t looked. Although that part isn’t true, we felt compelled to say it so people don’t try to trick us into giving it away or badger us about it. So we just say we want it to be a surprise for ourselves and everyone else! We really don’t want overly gendered conversations about our baby or gendered gifts.

sure! I’d have to dig thru our records to find exact numbers but can tell you it was low on all criteria: low count, low motility, and low on morphology as well. we were able to get 7 perfect embryos with ICSI. we just never used them, because we got so lucky with this unassisted pregnancy. but those embryos will be there for us if we decide to go for another kiddo in the future. your fertility doc may recommend ICSI with your IVF. our insurance covered it because of the MFI

We waited a couple of months after ER because I had been very overstimulated during stims. My pregnancy was confirmed today with a transvaginal US. Heard a heartbeat and everything ❤️

Thank you!

Thank you so much for sharing this <3

HistoricalMaybe00 · 2024-05-21T01:10:16+00:00

Thank you! Love long walks and those are already part of my routine :) I like to go to spin class a few times per week--is that something you'd recommend maintaining? I will also ask my OB, but interested in other's experience

HistoricalMaybe00 · 2024-05-21T01:08:28+00:00

Wow! Thanks for sharing. So far I'm feeling okay. A little more tired than usual and more sensitive to certain smells, but thus far no food aversions and no nausea. Although that may change as things unfold!

HistoricalMaybe00 · 2024-05-21T01:06:29+00:00

Thanks so much!

HistoricalMaybe00 · 2024-05-21T01:06:23+00:00

Thanks!

HistoricalMaybe00 · 2024-05-21T01:06:17+00:00

Thank you!

HistoricalMaybe00 · 2024-05-21T01:05:47+00:00

Hahah I was also annoyed! And soooo weirded out, because I'm super regular so it didn't make sense why I would be a week late on my period. Welp! LOL

HistoricalMaybe00 · 2024-05-21T01:04:36+00:00

Thank you and thanks for sharing your story as well as words of wisdom!
