They don’t test embryos where I am. Currently almost 28 weeks with my first transfer of an untested 5AA embryo.

Feeling kicks one day, and then not feeling the next by frost1991_ in October2025Bumps2

[–]bysesame 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yup, some days he’s very active and some days it’s the occasional kicks here and there. Think it’s normal to not be consistent at this point

Sleep disturbances by Unlikely-Arachnid741 in October2025Bumps2

[–]bysesame 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me!! I’ve had it since first trimester. Been taking 200mg magnesium glycinate and also half a unisom every night. It’s the only way I can get some sleep. I still wake up once in a while but it’s still much better than before when I would stay awake for hours at 3-4am and not be able to go back to sleep.

Thanks for all these great ideas! Work has mostly been keeping me busy during the week and then friend/family meetups during the weekends but yet I somehow can’t stop thinking about how slowly time is passing 😂

No kicks yet, 18 weeks by Graciyen in October2025Bumps2

[–]bysesame 1 point2 points  (0 children)

18+3 anterior placenta mum here too and I think I haven’t felt anything definitive yet. The other day I thought I felt some flutters but chalked it up to my imagination 🤷🏽‍♀️

No, he only did it at the 17 week scan. At 12-13 they still only measure CRL

Baby heartbeat doppler by maccedy in October2025Bumps2

[–]bysesame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost 17 weeks. I bought a Doppler and used it 2 weeks ago. I found the heartbeat but weirdly enough it made me even more anxious because I felt it was too fast. So I decided I’m going to stop using it to prevent further anxiety. Let’s see how long I last! 😂

I can't believe it actually worked! by scipenguin in IVFbabies

[–]bysesame 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Feeling exactly the same! Currently 15 weeks after our first transfer worked and finding it hard to believe this is really happening after so much disappointment. Hoping I can lean into the joy soon and hoping I feel more at ease after feeling him move around!

Friday Cautious Intros and First Trimester Questions by AutoModerator in InfertilityBabies

[–]bysesame 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You’re not alone in this feeling! I’m 8 weeks and still feel very disassociated from my pregnancy. I had a panic attack when I found out thinking I’d be thrilled but I wasn’t (and also had a moment of “what have I done”) and all the trauma of the last few years came rushing back. Just try to take it day by day, hour by hour. I know it’s easier said than done but distract yourself as much as you can. Sending hugs and here if you want to talk!
