Hi!
I very recently got my positive result after a FET. (This is my second child. First one conceived through a fresh cycle). Just wondered anyone in a similar position wanted to join, and help keep us calm until scan day!

I am only 4+2 weeks. Still so, so early. Can’t wait for my 7 week scan!

@MorgenMuffel good luck! Let us know how it goes!

ValidUser · 04/08/2020 11:31

Oh, exciting @MorgenMuffel (the scan, not the boobs. I'm a 36F before pregnancy!). Keep us updated!

I'm pukey as anything again this morning. A magical time.

BeHereNowx32 · 04/08/2020 11:43

@ValidUser good to have strong hormones I guess! Hope you find something that helps you feel better. Are you being sick?
My belly feels a bit yucky but it could really just be nerves for tomorrow... x

@BeHereNowx32 no actual vomit, but not far off it. Major food aversions and loss of interest in even my favourites.

I'm nervous, but normally chomp my way through the nerves, so this is different!

Thanks everyone, all went well today 😊 My hospital don't change the due date for IVF pregnancies so my EDD remains 11th Feb, but I was measuring near enough dead on 12+5 anyway. Got to hear the heartbeat 💓 at 165 and NT measurement 1.3mm which is within "normal" ranges too. Saw brain, stomach and all 4 limbs moving about. So lovely and very reassuring to see everything again.

@ValidUser hope you're feeling a bit better. I found that constantly eating helped my horrendous nausea

@MorgenMuffel

Excellent news!!! Hopefully that means you can relax a bit more now and start to enjoy this pregnancy and start planning for your new little arrival x

ValidUser · 04/08/2020 13:05

@MorgenMuffel ah glad all's looking well!

BabySweet85 · 04/08/2020 13:33

@MorgenMuffel glad it all went well! Are you FTM?

MorgenMuffel · 04/08/2020 13:53

@babysweet85 yes I am! Can you tell haha?!

BabySweet85 · 04/08/2020 14:34

@MorgenMuffel ha no! No I was just wondering! X

elleceedee · 04/08/2020 17:36

@MorgenMuffel great news about the scan! It must be such a nice feeling to get that milestone out of the way!

MorgenMuffel · 05/08/2020 06:31

@BeHereNowx32 @ValidUser good luck at your scans today

BeHereNowx32 · 05/08/2020 06:48

More scans today very exciting! Good luck everyone! Xx

Thanks @BeHereNowx32 and @MorgenMuffel and @ivfdreaming!

takingthistooseriously · 05/08/2020 10:34

Good news @MorgenMuffel really glad your scan went well!
Good luck to those with scans today, how are the scanxiety levels?! I can feel my anxiety ramping up for my scan on Saturday already 😬

ValidUser · 05/08/2020 10:53

Just the one! I'm measuring at 6+4 and I'm 6+2. Very happy!

ivfdreaming · 05/08/2020 11:29

@ValidUser

Great news!!! Congratulations! Xx

BeHereNowx32 · 05/08/2020 12:08

Congrats @ValidUser good news

Not good news for me. There’s no heartbeat or fetal pole and I’m measuring a week behind. They will do another scan in a week, but it’s not likely to develop any further. I’m so sad about it x

@BeHereNowx32 that's so, so cruel. 😔 I'm really sorry to hear that. x

ivfdreaming · 05/08/2020 12:22

@BeHereNowx32

Oh no! I'm so so sorry xxx

BeHereNowx32 · 05/08/2020 13:40

Thank you, and good luck to everyone! I definitely need to come off this thread! All the best xx

@BeHereNowx32 oh I am so sorry. Lots of love xxx

MorgenMuffel · 05/08/2020 17:47

@BeHereNowx32 so sorry, sending lots of love. Be kind to yourself and do whatever you need to get through this

MorgenMuffel · 05/08/2020 17:48

@ValidUser glad everything went well for you today
