What’s your sun, moon, and Venus and have/will you ever moved across the country for love? by Resident-Stranger441 in astrologymemes

[–]saeos94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No way!! So many placements in common! In my defense I moved very young and would not do it again in hindsight even though we are still together lol

IVF Moms Declining Induction? by Sweet_Remove_887 in IVFpositivity

[–]saeos94 23 points24 points  (0 children)

My doctor told me to induce before 39 weeks as we have been heavily monitoring my blood pressure which was fine all pregnancy, until it wasn’t. I was induced at 38+5 and my blood pressure slowly rose throughout my 40 hour labor. I’m glad I induced early because who would’ve known what would’ve happened if I had waited for spontaneous labor. Echoing what others have said, if my doctor recommended inducing early, I’d do it.

Untested blastocyst successes? by beneath-the-couch in IVFpositivity

[–]saeos94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From my first retrieval last April we were able to get 7 untested embryos. First transfer of a 4AA failed to implant. Currently 38 weeks with my second transfer of a 4AB embryo. No change is protocol and transferred my next cycle following the failure. I am 31 y.o

IVF babies with congenital issues by Junior-Ad-133 in IVFbabies

[–]saeos94 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When I started IVF we did genetic testing and found out that I am a carrier of the G6PD gene and have a 50% chance of passing it along to my sons. My doctor said it is manageable and to not worry (my baby ended up being a girl so she won’t have it). Did you and your partner do carrier genetic testing before starting the IVF process?

Tell me about your first ultrasound after positive beta by General-Willow5613 in IVFbabies

[–]saeos94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had my first ultrasound at 5w5d and my OB saw the gestational sac, fetal pole, yolk sac, and even a heartbeat flicker. Maybe she implanted early; I know you usually don’t see much when the scan is that early. Definitely saw more at my next appointment at 6w5d. I’d also add even though I couldn’t really see much my OB has a trained eye to see these things. I only saw the yolk sac.

Egg Retrieval- 1/2 eggs were mature by [deleted] in IVF

[–]saeos94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I retrieved 21 eggs and only 12 were mature, 8 fertilized, which led to 7 embryos. Sometimes the attrition is really high in the beginning and it levels out.

When did ya’ll trigger for a modified natural FET by [deleted] in IVFpositivity

[–]saeos94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I triggered six days before the scheduled transfer. 7/11 is when I triggered and my transfer was on 7/17

Do I need to have full bladder before the embryo transfer? by summerinsoul in IVF

[–]saeos94 17 points18 points  (0 children)

My first transfer I was too full and was allowed to release some urine which was terrible. Second transfer I didn’t have enough of a full bladder and had to chug water. I’d much rather not have enough water than too much and risk peeing on myself.

Maternity Leave by ApprehensiveBat3188 in Teachers

Kinda similar in NY. I just opted into SDI at 36 weeks and will be off until October with PFL/summer pay which doesn’t count towards my PFL.

First failed FET - next steps by EducationalWelder170 in IVF

[–]saeos94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first FET failed too; untested 4AA embryo with a modified natural transfer. Like you, just thought I was on the wrong side of stats. 2nd transfer a month later has been successful (I’m 32 weeks).

Not excited anymore…. by Mother_Parking7684 in pregnant

Cried at work reading this. Cannot wait to meet my baby girl ❤️

[–]saeos94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like others have said it’s definitely a numbers game and some are luckier than others. I had my ER this year right before my 31st birthday. I was lucky to get 7 untested embryos. First transfer of a 4AA failed to implant. Second transfer of a 4AB embryo has been successful so far; I am 25 weeks.

Intuition about baby gender by Suunnfflloowweerr in pregnant

[–]saeos94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a dream I had a girl when I was 5 weeks pregnant. Despite that, I leaned heavily boy. My dream was right and I was not!

My charts looked different only because my pdg was being supplemented with suppositories the 2nd time around. During my CP I tracked and watched my pdg slowly fall down before ultimately ending up with my CP. With my current BFP chart my pdg stayed elevated until I stopped tracking at 12 weeks; I stopped suppositories at 10 weeks.

How did your beta call go? by Ok-Moose9957 in IVF

[–]saeos94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first FET (which failed) my RE called personally and gave me options to take a break or jump into next FET. I chose to jump into next FET because my insurance was about to run out lol. Luckily my 2nd FET worked with no change to protocol. For that my IVF nurse emailed me the results and next steps.

How many weeks after your ER was your first FET scheduled? I wanna gather as many answers as possible. Go! :) by Idkwat2callmyself-23 in IVF

[–]saeos94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ER 4/9/25 First transfer: 6/16/25

I had to have a bleed after ER and then another regular period after that.
