Hey ladies how are you all? How are the babies doing?

I wanted to share with you that I am expecting again. We decided to do a sinking round of FET in November, however I caught naturally! Which is incredible and seems insane and impossible after trying for 7 years and needing more than one full IVF round.

Still in shock. But very happy.

@PMAmostofthetime wow that’s amazing, congratulations 👏🏼
I also fell naturally in December but unfortunately miscarried, we done a frozen transfer last month and I’ve just found out I’m expecting twins!

when are you due? X

@PMAmostofthetime Aww that’ll come round so quick after Christmas, do you know what Gender you’re having? I can’t remember if you found out with your little girl or if it was a surprise. How is she sleeping now? My little boy still isn’t sleeping through the night unless it’s in my bed so I really need to get that sorted before the twins come-not sure how I’ll cope 🙈. I’m due beginning of June but I don’t think they’ll let me go passed third week of May, I’m only 7weeks so very early days still, I’m a little bit anxious this week as my morning sickness has suddenly stopped!!

Steph2345 · 22/10/2024 09:15

@PMAmostofthetime this is amazing news!! Can’t believe you managed to conceive naturally after all this time 💕 when are you due?

@LKSF hope everything goes well over the next few weeks for you. The first trimester is so stressful isn’t it.

i did a FET back at the start of April and were super lucky to have it work for us so our second little one is due in December (5 days later than our first’s due date!!)

LKSF · 22/10/2024 09:17

@Steph2345 Aww Amazing, congratulations!!! We are all very lucky xx

Autumn245 · 22/10/2024 09:43

@PMAmostofthetime congratulations! What amazing news after trying for so long with your daughter.

@LKSF congratulations also! Twins!! Did you transfer 1 or 2 embryos?

@Steph2345 congrats! Not long to wait now for little one to arrive 🥰

I am doing a natural modified FET next month, need to wait for cycle day 1 before getting booked in for lining scans, but looking to do transfer last week in November 🤞

@Steph2345 @PMAmostofthetime @LKSF huge congratulations to all of you! So lovely to see you've had success with baby number 2. Hope everything continues to go well for you all and the pregnancies aren't too difficult with a little one to look after!

We're thinking about trying for our second now that our first is 15 months, though as I had an emergency c sect, they like you to wait 2 years but I feel like if it's going to happen, we need to get things going as quickly as possible. We have one frostie left so might look to give that a go in the new year.

@Autumn245 good luck with your FET, hope you get some good news too! 🤞

PMAmostofthetime · 22/10/2024 12:45

@LKSF we are having a boy this time, mine stopped too and then came back. I had an early scan at 6 weeks then 12 then 20 and we have another booked for end of Dec. I know it's so fast.

Will you find out the gender of the twins? Did you put 2 back in or did it split? How old will your son be when they are born? Nope still not sleeping.

@Steph2345 I still can't believe it to be honest, this pregnancy is so different as well. Beginning of March so 4 weeks before DD turns 2. Wow amazing news, how are you feeling? How old will your little one be when the new baby arrives? Do you know what your having?

@Autumn245 Good Luck for next month, how are you feeling?

@Rosemary121 I had Emergency C/S too, they checked my scar and said was fine to try again.

LKSF · 22/10/2024 13:39

@Autumn245 Aww that’s Exciting, good luck 🤞🏼

@Rosemary121 Good Luck, hopefully they can check it out and give you the thumbs up to go again.

@PMAmostofthetime Aw how lovely that you’re having a boy this time round! I had a 6wk scan, and I’ve booked one for 9wks! We had two embryos transferred, we had two transferred for our last three rounds of IVF and only one ever stuck so it was still abit of a shock!

Steph2345 · 22/10/2024 14:27

@LKSF i booked an extra one in too and had an additional one with the clinic early anyways because i was bleeding at 6 weeks so they did a heartbeat scan for us as well as their usual 8 week one. I then paid for a 10 week scan just to keep my head level. I say book as many as you need! Will they be able to tell you if both embryos took this time or if 1 split? Can they tell from a scan?!

@Autumn245 good luck! Hope you’re feeling ok.

@PMAmostofthetime my little girl will be exactly 2 when this one arrives. When my clinic said I could start the medication this time I realised straight away that it was going to be close with the dates 😂
so exciting you’ll have 1 of each! I don’t know what we are having again. The pregnancy seems super similar but my head is convinced it’s a boy so I’ll just have to wait and see.

LT103 · 22/10/2024 14:38

Wow some exciting news here.

@PMAmostofthetime @Steph2345 @LKSF congratulations!!!!!

@Autumn245 good luck

we decided to go back again and actually had an FET today!!! So officially in the 2ww!!!! My little boy is almost 17 months so thought would be a good time to try 🤞🤞🤞

PMAmostofthetime · 22/10/2024 16:09

@LT103 good Luck! When will you test?

It's lovely that we are all doing this together again x

LT103 · 22/10/2024 16:12

Well according to the clinic, a week on Monday which will be 13dpt but yeah I dont think I will last that long. I might hold off til 10dpt that’s what I did last time so that would be 1st November.

LKSF · 22/10/2024 16:16

Wow we’re all in this together again 🥰

@Steph2345 I had a scan at 6weeks and seen two heartbeat, they both took, so they’re non-identical! I really wanted a surprise gender this time around, but I feel like with twins I probably need to find out to be organised 🙈

PMAmostofthetime · 23/10/2024 00:13

@LT103 I tested 9dp5dt last time. And got a strong positive.

@LKSF I wanted a surprise last time but OH really wanted to know so I caved and the no this time I wanted to know whether to keep or donate all the pink stuff 😂🙈.

AliceAbsolum · 23/10/2024 19:18

Wow! I'm super excited for you guys! Love how you're all pregnant again together :)

Although I do think you're all mad 😂 I literally can't imagine doing another round of ivf again... Maybe I'm a bit traumatized. Did it feel challenging?

LT103 · 24/10/2024 14:16

We were lucky that we had 5 embryos left from previous round so it’s been fairly straight forward this time around. Hoping to hold out til 1 nov to test which will be 10dpt

5 wow that's amazing- I only got 3 from 2 rounds. 1st round failed miserably and they put 2 cavitating morulas in as we had no blasts
We are super lucky though that we have DD and this happened naturally x

PMAmostofthetime · 26/11/2024 09:23

How are you all feeling?

LT103 · 26/11/2024 13:28

We have unfortunately had a failed transfer that is dragging out. Positive pregnancy test but low and slow rising hcg which isn’t decreasing yet despite a bleed so getting a scan next week to see what is happening

Awww no- big hugs is it definitely a fail?
Horrible for it to drag out.

What day is the scan? Hope you don't have to wait too long? X

Autumn245 · 26/11/2024 15:50

We had our transfer last week so just waiting it out now to test 🤞

@LT103 sorry to hear it's not been successful for you, sending hugs x

@PMAmostofthetime I had my 13 week scan today - both babies are fine which was a relief. How are you feeling? x

@Autumn245 Sending you lots of luck and baby dust x

@LT103 I’m so sorry, I really hope you get some good news at your scan, have they increased your progesterone? X

PMAmostofthetime · 26/11/2024 21:07

@Autumn245 how are you feeling?
I remember these days all too well. Message on here if you want to chat or rant!

@LKSF that's amazing news :) are you going to have an early private scan for gender or wait until 20 weeks?

I feel exhausted 😂 but someone told me it's harder being pregnant with a toddler than having a newborn and a toddler so better days are coming x
