Early pregnancy after IVF. Please come here to worry and support!

[NookNook]

Right then! Come here if you are 4-12 weeks and can't stop fretting. Didn't think anything could be worse than the 2WW? Think again!

Never fear, Marbles is here Prambo. All is well with Prambino, of this I am sure!! Two more days and you will see a proper wriggler on the screen. And you'll get an amaing photo shoot to boot!

I'm just very, very tired. I'm not getting more than an hour of unbroken sleep at a time. It's doing me in.

Is that 'cos you're weeing?

And having horrid nightmares

maybe I'm having really mad vivid dreams too, and I wondered if it is down to the reduction in progynova (oestrogen tabs)? I reduced them from 3 to 2 per day a week ago, which coincides with nightly madness. Any chance it could be similar for you? How are you doing, anyway? I hope you got through the day ok. Not long to go now.

Hi pram your baby is well and truly here to stay, so don't worry! You heard a heartbeat at 12 weeks, which reduces your risk of miscarriage to less than 1%!

Where are you nook?

No, I'm only on progesterone and haven't cut it out yet. I think it's just the pregnancy!! I don't know how I've made it through the day vibe just managed to finish my lunch. I haven't felt quite as sick today, but the tiredness has been overwhelming. Think I may work from home tomorrow and save myself the commute.

Thank you for your wise words earlier. I'm still terrified something bad will happen. There's been another mc on the march thread . Still, only tomorrow to get through then I will know.

Yes Nooky, are you back yet?!

Marbie, had Kat seen a heartbeat at all? I'm having horrid dreams, too and they are worse since stopping the progesterone last week; you may be on to something there, Motor. Thank you for your sensible reassurances, ladies x

Not that I can remember Prammy. My midwife friend also told me that the chances of me having a mmc are next to none. But there's always that chance isn't there. Haven't felt as sick this arvo

Hi everyone
I'm knackered and keep doubting too, did another test on Sunday just to check. That's only my 4th though which I'm quite impressed with!
I've got near constant nausea and have noticed more vivid dreaming too, still have 4 weeks of 3 cyclogest and 4 progynova to go though.
Am only 6 + 2 at the mo and have my first scan on Thursday
maybe was it you in a new job too? My brain feels completely frazzled and I'm knackered bit I'm coping so far
Xx

Yes, was me Caip. I was coping, but not anymore! I think 12 hour days are killing me! Going to work from home tomorrow hopefully! You're joining me and Prambo for a spot of Thursday scanning!

..the day before my birthday

What plans do you have Prambo?

Well...I told th'usband I'm craving steak so he wanted to take us to a restaurant but I refuse to spend £22 for one steak when I make them just as special at home. I dunno, I think I'm too working-class to spend forty-odd quid on a couple of steaks. Not very romantic, am I? I just want to go to the cinema to watch The Conjuring and then have a Burger King. Is that bad?

It's your birthday Prammy. The law states that you must do whatever you want on that day. To the cinema I say!!

Ironically enough, we are going out for steak on your birthday!! MrM, my lovely bro and his lovely new wife!

Aw, well have a satisfying group masticating session for me, won't you?

Do you have a sauce of choice?

I used to love Madeira but I think that's alcoholic, right? Same with Diane. Summat else delectable then 'cos peppercorn's a bit common, innit.

I do like a good bernaise...

Happy Birthday pram. 42 today, and the best gift of all - you're pregnant!! Have a lovely day. Don't worry about the alcohol in a sauce - the cooking burns it off, and it would be a very small amount anyway. Hope you and t'husband are on better terms now and can celebrate together.

I've got an interesting one - I seem to have started getting morning sickness! Weird. I'm 11+2 today and for the past couple of days I've had quite strong nausea, especially this morning. Also had horrible heightened sense of smell. Maybe Im poorly, but I don't feel poorly otherwise. Tired, though, so fucking tired.

How are you doing maybe?

Hello caip. Really glad you are joining us. How are you feeling?

Morning nook.

Morning Motor. Sorry to hear about the nausea

I'm working from home today. I felt too rough to manage a massive commute this morning. I seem to have a cold too.

Beetle from everyone I know that's had babies, the first 12 weeks is the longest. And seems even longer as we also aware of exactly when we conceived. You'll get there. Less than a week now till your scan!

The luck is so bad with the egg buddies at the moment. But it will pick up again, I'm sure.

I don't think it's Prrammy's birthday till Friday. But I'm up for a three day celebration

Yep, my birthday is on Friday but I will lap-up any and celebratory messages as and when...
Cutie, can I just have cake inside my cake? I can't be arsed with sex.

Marbles, what's in bernaise?

Awful bad news on the Egg thread

One more sleep, Marbie!

One more sleep indeed Prambo!

Bernaise is like a holland aide with tarragon in it. I make a mean one even if I do say so myself

Check out my profile for my new birthday thatch..what do you think?
