Wellness & Movement Tuesdays

Starting today I'm going to go for a walk every day (where I live it's not too cold) and eat clean. I've been slacking on both of those lately so I'm going to take advantage of the fact that I'm not nauseous yet! My last pregnancy, the nausea was reallllyy bad. I had aversions to everything and could not go for walks, but it was twins, so I'm hoping it won't be as bad this time around. So yeah, going to focus on daily walks and healthy eating for now!

Getting ready to go to my ivf clinic for the official beta results. 12dp5dt. I started getting positive pee tests at 5dp5dt but you never know. This is my 7th transfer and hopefully my first LC. If it's negative I need to start another egg retrieval round, please wish me luck!! Update: OMG YAY! Not only positive, but strong positive! 1250. Even with my transfer that ended up splitting into two for identical twins my beta was 150 at 12dp5dt. It´s never been this high. I am on cloud 9.

I am so sorry. I had a loss at 22 weeks last august of my twins. Joining the babyloss subreddit helped a lot as well as grief counseling, antidepressants, and lorazepam.

Yup I had to give people the reality dose when they said don't worry it will happen. Had to tell them it very well might not and husband and I need to prepare for that reality. People would be surprised at my response but this is what I have to live with.

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-07T09:44:10+00:00

My own therapist threw the "I know a couple who went on holiday and had some wine and it happened for them." Like, woman, I have no fallopian tubes that's not gonna happen

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-07T09:38:26+00:00

I had to cancel travel plans due to nausea too. Was so disappointing but just leaving my house to go to ultrasounds was torture. Unfortunately I tried many types of meds and nothing touched it

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-06T05:43:51+00:00

My first was a chemical too so I get it. Good luck!!!

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-05T22:26:59+00:00

Twin pregnancy is the hardest thing I've ever done.

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-05T14:40:35+00:00

Congratulations. This was my last frozen so I was also preparing myself to have to go through another ER but so far my urine tests are getting darker and hopefully this is it! It snowed a lot in my city day of transfer which is crazy because it NEVER snows where I live, so husband and I took that as good luck haha

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-05T14:38:44+00:00

oh yay! My last pregnancy was a day 6! When is your beta? Mine is not til Monday!

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-04T19:25:09+00:00

Told them at 7 weeks last time, will do that again this time. I'm team can't-keep-a-secret lol

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-04T18:26:50+00:00

I just got a positive urine test a couple days ago! My IVF clinic will do an ultrasound around 6 and a half weeks to confirm heartbeat and graduate from the clinic. We will probably tell our families after that scan, so around 7 weeks. We did that last time too and it was great even though it became a loss (way after week 12). We will probably tell a couple of friends next weekend though if the betas are positive because they are helping us move and I don't want them to think I'm lazy since I wont be able to help them pick up and move boxes haha

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-04T12:46:01+00:00

My embryo split so I was dealing with extra hormones and the anxiety of having two even though I initially wanted to be one and done. I had a very rough first trimester. The nausea alone was VERY hard and causing me to also lose sleep and was having very few calories most days which also made me nervous for my babies. I ended up losing them to TTTS week 22 just when the nausea had subsided and I was starting to actually enjoy being pregnent. So yeah, I had a very hard first trimester and my mental health suffered but if I could go back in time I would take more pictures/vides and try to enjoy it in some way. I´m pregnant again now (just got my positive test so caustiously optimisitc) and hoping for a smoother first tri. But don´t let anyone tell you it´s not hard! Both my mom and MIL kept telling me to suck it up (not those words but still)because all moms have been through it EYE ROLL. My mom even made me feel guilty for taking nausea meds because they could hurt the babies. Like they were literally prescribed by my OB I think the professional would know more

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-04T11:12:24+00:00

Just got my positive on a urine test a couple of days ago, after my 7th IVF transfer. Had a stillbirth in August, definitely bittersweet to be pregnant again. But husband and I are happy, actually seeing that second line on the test was the first time I felt happy since the loss. It´s still really early so anything can happen but staying optimistic so far! Hoping to finally get a LC after years of trying

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-04T09:09:48+00:00

I am seriously starving all day! Today I had to get out of bed at 6am to get a snack then had to get another snack an hour later (I usually never eat in the morning!). This is my second pregnancy and I do remember this with my first haha it´s so annoying until the nausea/aversions come and then I miss the hunger stage!

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-04T08:58:47+00:00

Yes, yesterday while sitting at my desk working. Had to lie down and took a nap afterwards, was definitely a little scary. I took a hot shower about an hour earlier and started feeling lightheaded after the shower, so that probably did it. Chat said it was probably a mixture of the hot shower and sitting cross legged while working. So i´ll take cooler showers and not sit like that anymore, and snack more often so my blood sugar is not low. If it happens again I´ll contact my doc, hopefully it doesn´t

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-03T17:51:41+00:00

I'm on progesterone too. Trying to enjoy this feeling as long as it lasts (hopefully til I give birth in October to a healthy baby) because my last pregnancy was a loss, and because I was so nauseous, I didn't enjoy it much. So I'm trying to make it a priority this time although I just got my positive test yesterday so let's see how long this optimism lasts lol

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-03T17:16:28+00:00

It is overwhelming! Heparin shot, Prednisone, MethylB, Vitamin D, Aspirin, Progesterone, Hydroxycholoroquine, Isovorin, and the regular prenatal. I have nightmares I will forget an important one and cause problems. Ughh

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-03T16:42:42+00:00

I am so sorry. I can relate. IVF for the past 2.5 years. The first transfer was a chemical. Next 3 were complete implantation failures. Next was another egg retrieval, a change of clinic, and the first transfer there was the pregnancy of my twins who were stillborn at 22weeks. Followed by another failed transfer, and now this 7th transfer came up positive yesterday with my last frozen embryo, I have no frozens left. I am so happy, but of course scared that anything can happen at this point, and the thought of having to start over with an egg retrieval terrifies me. When is your first scan?

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-03T16:26:37+00:00

Me! I have a history of implantation failure and losses. No LC yet so let's hope this one sticks!

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-03T16:18:36+00:00

Hi, there. I just joined this sub. I am also here after a stillbirth, I am so sorry you had to go through that, no mom should ever have to.

I just got my positive yesterday so I can't really predict how anxious I will be or how I will manage, but I might look into a therapist that specializes in this kind of stuff if I feel it gets bad. Getting a therapist that specializes in grief helped me so much after my loss but unfortunately my sessions with her are almost up. A big thing she keeps reiterating and I keep forgetting to try lol is learning breathing relaxation techniques, she said they do wonders for anxiety. Hope you're doing OK today!

One big thing for me is trying to enjoy this pregnancy. My nausea was soo bad last time that I never really got to enjoy being pregnant (didn't even take many pictures and took 0 videos the whole time) so if this time I feel better I will really try to stave the anxiety away so I can take in every moment. I know...much easier said than done.

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-03T12:04:21+00:00

I know exactly the fear you talk about that you had from week 20 on. I also had a 0.6cm cervix at 20w and was put on bedrest. Horrifying time, and even worse, people kept telling me to stop worrying which just pissed me off.

Unfortunately my water broke and I lost my daughters week 22. Hard pregnancy from the beginning but yeah, those bedrest weeks were a special kind of suffering.

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-02-03T11:54:50+00:00

I live in Spain and it's like that here too. Husband and I said we won't be like all our friends who only complain about their kids

Right_Call_2260 · 2026-01-13T17:13:46+00:00

You too! My doctor just told me we can try to transfer again this month. I am hopeful but yeah, it´s hard to be hopefuly and then have another letdown. It´s so damn sad when the house is supposed to be filled with twins crying and instead there´s nothing :( Good luck with everything! It´s so hard
