@Kelb79 I hope egg collection is successful this week ♥️

@Annny27 never had any morning sickness I've been very lucky to have very mild symptoms!

Hey lovelies! How are you all? It’s soo quiet on here these days…. soooo many of you made it I guess ❤️❤️❤️
who’s still left TTC?? I’ve lost track 🤣

so we had our 3 egg collection!
Final results…
1st round - OV’d early, failed collection
2nd round - ovaries hadn’t recovered so not very successful - 5 eggs, 3 mature, 1 fertilised, 1 day 6 5BC blast
3rd round - 5 eggs, 4 mature, 3 fertilised, 1 day 5 5BB blast, 1 day 6 5BB blast 🥳🥳

so we’ve got 3 embryos that have been biopsied and tucked up in the freezer while we wait for PGT-A test results 😁

results back in about 3 weeks (slowest 3 weeks if my life no doubt!!!)
ive got my meds and plan for transfer cycle - working towards transfer on 29th November.
just praying to have something to transfer 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

That's such good news @Kelb79

Yeah ive noticed it's quiet on here too, I've just been keeping away from the boards to be honest as I'm just a nervous wreck!

Will keep everything crossed for you xx

@Kelb79
Such good news, and I will be praying that your rainbow is just around the corner, I'm not getting notifications when someone writes in to the group for some reason x

@Kelb79 fab news! So happy for you.

I feel as if it went quiet on here was hit and miss for replies so been watching on and replying the odd times xx

Sooooo pleased you have some embryos :D will be keeping everything crossed for you!! @Kelb79

@PeanuttyButter @Babyghirl @Bubbles1995 yep I am the same just a bit quiet atm not much to say haha

I've not been getting notifications either!

Currently 26 weeks, time seems to be going so slow

@Kelb79 That's really great news!!! This is the first time I've been on here in a long time. I'm back at work full-time so not much spare time but thankfully I'm an Ofsted Registered Childminder so I get to work with my 5 month old little Rainbow. Xx

@Sweetbabydust1989 Congratulations!!! It's so lovely to be encouraged by the lovely Rainbow babies coming out of this group! With more on their way! Xx

@MrsF111 Congratulations! I hope this is your precious little Rainbow Xx

Sending loads of love to all of you, wherever you are on your journey and hoping for many more Rainbows babies on here. Xx

It's crazy the difference 12months can make. This time last year I had just had my second miscarriage and was waiting for the wave of light for baby loss awareness week as it was my first year being properly involved. This year I'm going to be 27 weeks pregnant with my 5th pregnancy!! Mixed emotions to be honest. Glad I'm here but at the same time it's so sad thinking about what I had to go through to get here. What we all have had to face in the last 12 months even.

Wow you are nearly in the third trimester @PeanuttyButter ♥️♥️ yep it's a poignant reflection isnt it xx

I am 38 weeks now so feeling very close!

@H0peing cant believe your little girl is 5 months now!!!

Can't believe you are 38 weeks @Annny27 your baby could come any day now!!

Sadly I am back, just been for a scan having seen a heartbeat 2 weeks ago and the baby hasn’t grown and their heart has stopped. My 3rd mc in a row. Feeling very numb, has anyone on here been referred to a recurrent mc clinic? I’m going to call on Monday but wondering what the process/timeline is like

@MrsF111 oh god I’m so so sorry huni xxxx sending you all the love in the world ❤️❤️❤️

So sorry for your loss @MrsF111 they don't get easier I know xx

I was referred to the miscarriage clinic earlier this year after my third miscarriage. They did cycle day 3 bloods to begin with after the initial consultation. Went through family history of illness and miscarriage for both our sides.
When the results came back I was seen in clinic and they said that other than factor v Leiden everything seemed ok but they were going to prescribe me progesterone from after ovulation to prolong my luteal phase to aid implantation as I'd often spot for days before AF. As my hormone levels were ok and they thought I was ovulating they wanted to try this. Plus aspirin from BFP.

They gave it a time limit and basically said that if I hadn't gotten/stayed pregnant after 5 months they were going to go down the IVF route. DH had bloods and a semen analysis and all was well with him.

@Kelb79 thank you ❤️

@PeanuttyButter did you end up going down the ivf route for this pregnancy? So far I have gotten pregnant very easily just not been able to keep them 💔

@MrsF111 so sorry for your loss ♥️ a lot of us here have had luck with progesterone use in first trimester and early 2nd trimester so 🤞🏻🤞🏻 they can give you this to try xx

@MrsF111 I got referred in January, had my initial appointment in Feb then follow up beginning of March. I got pregnant easily too but didn't stay pregnant. Progesterone helped loads.
I got pregnant in March then again in April. I've got the April baby on board now.

Just catching up so sorry for your loss @MrsF111 hope you're getting much needed support we are all here for you lovely..

How is everyone doing so it's been a rough few weeks my baby girl has a serve cows mill protein allergy so been changing milks to get one that will suit her being put on a cows milk free one tomorrow it's been exhausting I feel robbed of my time with my baby girl as all she has done is scream for 3 weeks solid 🥲. It took 7 doctors 2 a&e trips, countless calls to hv and gp for her to be diagnosed it's been a rough time. Fingers crossed this milk which is number 6 will work for her. I have literally avoided anyone coming over as she is hard to settle atm it's been isolating atm 🥲 xx

Oh bless her (and poor you as well!) @Sweetbabydust1989

Hopefully this does the trick and she becomes a lot more settled soon 🤞🏻🤞🏻

38+4 today and feeling very ready haha!

@Sweetbabydust1989 have you tried Neocate?
I think it's prescribed by a gastro doc.
My first had it last year as well. It is so stressful. All the docs, hospitals, tests... and you feel so powerless. Hugs to you x

I am hoping this one doesnt get it. Almost 2 weeks old now and so far so good. But with my first it only started at 1 month...

@Annny27 do you have an induction date?! Soooooo close 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Hi everyone, I haven't received any notifications and thinks have been pretty chaotic for me these last few weeks.

I got diagnosed with gestational diabetes at 33 weeks and told baby was measuring big. I opted to go for an elective C-section due to my still birth last year as my anxieties went through the roof. They booked that for Monday 17th- I should’ve been 38+1. Well my little man had other ideas and my waters broke in the early hours of 8th Oct. Went to triage, got prepped for a C-section as they said I could still have I one. Whilst waiting for the doctors to take me firm to theatre my contractions ramped up and I delivered him there and then on the triage ward. He weighed 7lb 5oz and ended up in NICU due to respiratory distress syndrome. He spent 10 days there in total. Got home Monday night and have been in full on new born bubble since.

@Sweetbabydust1989 ci granulations on your rainbow baby 💖

@Annny27 @PeanuttyButter @Babyghirl @Bubbles1995 how’s things going with you all?

@MrsF111 im so sorry to hear your news. How are you doing?

@Kelb79 good to hear things are progressing well with the IVF 🥰
