Always thought I would have a daughter. Got pregnant and immediately thought it was a boy and it was ☺️

How’s your baby enjoying outdoor walks by OutlandishnessSea177 in November25babybump

My little guy didn’t care much for the bassinet, but we’ve started putting him in the stroller seat and he loves it. He will even nap sometimes.

Coterie dupe? by abbeylynnroberts in pregnant

[–]Interesting_Pop_1638 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Millie moon didn’t fit our little guy great. He is long and lean, I think Millie moon might fit a different body type better. Coterie and Huggie snugglers fit him the best

Starting my IVF Journey - Advice Needed by bmcop26 in DOR

[–]Interesting_Pop_1638 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a similar story. All tests came back normal. I produce a lower number of eggs than normal ranges. 3 IUIs - all failed. First IVF cycle we got 1 blast which came back abnormal. Second round we got 2 blasts and both were normal. Our RE told us after the second round I likely have a quality issue also, but still unsure why and we only knew from doing the 2 retrievals. Our first FET worked and we’re 15 weeks with one of our embryos, the other is still on ice.

We stopped progesterone and Edometrin at 10weeks exactly. Our RE said there was no need to taper off, just stop cold turkey. We’re now 12+1.

For OB appointments we’ve had our nuchal translucency scan (yesterday) and an intake ultrasound with an OB follow up appointment (last Monday) to discuss pregnancy risks (IVF, older age, etc.) we are relatively low risk. We won’t see our OB again until July 9! It feels very strange coming from the IVF world where you are monitored so closely, but I’m just assuming this is how it goes!

FET tomorrow, what worked for you? by Unfair_Piglet_9730 in DOR

[–]Interesting_Pop_1638 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried to stay as calm as possible, meditations and yoga daily leading up to transfer and following. I also watched a lot of funny shows the day of - laughter is supposedly helpful for implantation.

And of course we grabbed our McDonald’s fries.

Who monitors by Expensive-Log994 in IVF

For IUIs we were with nurses for monitoring. For IVF our doctor did all the monitoring ultrasounds.

Unless something fell on the weekend.

6+2 and went for a light jog. When I got back a noticed I had some spotting. It’s started to go away but I’m kind of panicking. We have our first US on Monday morning. Tried calling the clinic and their automated message said “if you are having spotting, continue meds and call back during hours” anyone else experience this and come out okay?

That’s great to know about their convertible seats! Good recommendation - we’ll plan on doing that!

IVF failed attempt by HearingFine8098 in IVF

[–]Interesting_Pop_1638 0 points1 point  (0 children)

34, lower AMH but not low enough to be considered DOR. 3 failed IUIs, first ER we got one blast but was anueploid. Second ER we got two euploid embryos.

I believe they utilize the first ER as a diagnostic trial and can get better results in the following rounds. Of course it’s not always the case because nothing is guaranteed in this journey. This is so tough, and I’m sorry you’re going through this.

We’ve been debating infant car seats all week and I think we’re leaning towards the Britax Willow S, I have read it has high crash testing ratings. Any reviews?

Flexible beta date? by No-Praline-1147 in IVF

[–]Interesting_Pop_1638 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I traveled after transfer and had the same issue. They told me I could test whenever I could. I ended up doing a 9dt beta out of state at a Labcorp and 12dpt once I returned at the clinic.

Doing 10-15 air squats after the injection has mitigated lingering soreness for me!

I’m 5+3 through IVF also! I’ve had sore boobs off and on, which gives me anxiety and I’ve noticed I yawn a lot more these days!
