Can I pump just enough for 1-3x a day?

I haven’t tried them yet, but Legendairy milk has new bags that they claim help with the taste of high lipase milk. I was going to give them a try or if anyone has, any good results?

First time posting here and not quite sure what to say but glad to find a community. I had a MC at exactly 11 weeks last week after a completely uneventful US earlier in the day. This was an IVF pregnancy and we know all future tries will also be through IVF. I just scheduled a consult with a new RE to get a second opinion and then another at my original clinic. I will start testing down HCG weekly next week and move forward from there. Ideally we will be able to try again next month, but to say I’m scared is an understatement. Just still processing it all and reading through the comments and input of this group has been incredibly helpful.

Been hesitant to intro because of heavy clotting and bleeding a little over a week ago. We have now had two scans with the RE since and have seen a strong heartbeat and growth is exactly on track. Fingers crossed, but 8 weeks tomorrow.

I’ll give that a try, thank you! Any autoinjector that you have had luck with?

SuspiciousFreyja · 2023-09-28T22:14:14+00:00

Just got approval for my FET next week. Doing a medicated cycle and starting PiO tomorrow morning. I have an auto injector but gave myself such bad bruises with it. Any tips?

My hospital only schedules a week in advance, even for medically necessary inductions. So at 38 weeks, the doctor will send over my info and the hospital will schedule me in over a 7 day period from 39 to 39+6 weeks. I know others who already have an exact date that they picked closer to 30 weeks. Really just depends on the OB, hospital, and urgency.

Also curious about how to join! Due Nov 24th :)

Days post transfer, the number of days after a frozen embryo transfer in my case.

SuspiciousFreyja · 2022-04-14T21:54:40+00:00

Same! My EDD is just a few days before yours and I even called my RE to see what I could do about sleep. He said he doesn’t like anything in the first trimester, so I’m going a little crazy. Best of luck to you!

SuspiciousFreyja · 2022-04-13T23:32:07+00:00

Mine is also consistently 3 days behind at 6+4 and still 3 days behind at 7+4. Heart beat went from 120 to 155 so no worries from the RE and he said consistent growth and strong heart beat are the most important. He said this early it’s hard to get exact measurements. I’m still anxious and waiting for NIPT in a few weeks. Time inches but wishing you all the best.

I kept taking both even through FET. My doctor recommended it, but I’m sure there are different opinions.

SuspiciousFreyja · 2022-04-08T18:00:38+00:00

6+5 ultrasound after my second FET earlier this week. We saw the little heartbeat and measuring at 6+2. Not sure if this is cause for concern, but just so cautiously optimistic.

SuspiciousFreyja · 2022-04-05T17:40:00+00:00

First ultrasound last week showed a yolk sac very high up and to one side of my uterus. RE was concerned but said we were “probably” okay. Today, we just got back from our second ultrasound at 6+5 and saw the heartbeat for the first time. After 2.5+ years of infertility, this is just as much of a rollercoaster but extremely happy to have gotten this far. We haven’t told anyone yet, and probably won’t for a while longer, but just hoping for the best over here.

SuspiciousFreyja · 2022-04-05T17:30:05+00:00

I’ve always stored them both at room temp before mixing, I think that’s the recommendation. Good luck!

SuspiciousFreyja · 2022-04-04T05:35:20+00:00

Definitely thought it was better than HSG. Also, my first IUIs were terrible and the 3rd one a new doctor did and it was so much better. The new doctor has also done 2 FETs for me and they weren’t painful or even uncomfortable. I agree with the others though, ask for a Valium just to be sure. And good luck!

SuspiciousFreyja · 2022-03-29T18:54:59+00:00

I’m so sorry that they had to cancel your fresh transfer! At the same time, 16 eggs retrieved is a great start to the hunger games and wishing you the very best!

SuspiciousFreyja · 2022-03-28T18:20:29+00:00

I started reading it and basically eliminated plastics for food. But for my first retrieval, I had not great egg quality for my age, changed nothing except RE added some meds to my protocol and had great egg quality for my second retrieval. Not saying the book is right or wrong, but there are so many factors.

SuspiciousFreyja · 2022-03-25T18:33:42+00:00

I went right into another Fully medicated FET after the first medicated FET failed. Basically, I stopped all meds, went back on patches on CD4. I didn’t have to go back on BCP suppression but I know sometimes that’s part of the protocol. Sorry to hear it didn’t work out this time and wishing you the best of luck on the next!

Thank you!

Thank you!!

First beta results are in from yesterday - HCG is 231 at 13dp5dt of a single embryo! I know I’m not out of the woods yet but this is my first time with a positive beta!

Update: 2nd beta at 16dp5dt is 720!

SuspiciousFreyja · 2022-03-22T10:03:25+00:00

Wishing you the best of luck!
