Was this really necessary? Don't you think things got blown a little out of proportion?
Well, have fun.

Singing: What?!?!!?!!!!
Lauren: Thank you! Ahhhh! Much better!!! |

Singing- We heard what you guys said and we figured out a way to maintain a place for info and for people still struggling while creating a place to talk in depth about our success. We are still going to come there to give our experiences and be a part of that community. However, we wanted a place where we could talk about our pregnancies and things only related to that without upsetting anyone. Would you have been happy with us doing that on the original Azoo board? It was causing people discomfort and that was unfair to them. This is not meant to be exclusive or anything. It was created with best intentions.
Lauren - Thanks for taking the time to do this. Hope everyone is feeling good. I think I may be coming out of my m/s. I am a week from 12 weeks. So it makes me a little nervous that it has stopped a bit early. I am also having what I thinks is round ligament pain. Not so fun either. Ouch. Also this week is my ultra screen. It is a test that is done to test genetic abnormalities. I am not stressing so much about it but would appreciate your prayers. ![]()

Lauren - Thanks for starting this girl!
jojo - 12 weeks is totally normal for ms to stop. The ligment pain unfortunately only gets worse, hang in there! best of luck with your apt. I remember being a nervous wreck before that one, glad you are calm! So does anyone have a belly yet. Maybe if I get up the nerve I will post my belly shots. I have a growth check today to see how big the babies are, please keep me in your prayers that they are both nice and big!

Hello!
so those of you that went the IVF route, are you still on some of the hormones?? I can't wait to stop taking this dang progestrone suppository and the baby aspirin daily. As you know I had my first OB appt last Thurs and they felt that I needed to call the clinic back to ask them when to stop. Thank goodness they stopped the Estrace almost 3 weeks ago. I just don't know what is bloating and what is being preggo?? Sara i do have a little belly, more like a pooch! I also wanted to tell yall, that during my U/S on Thurs they found 2 cysts on my right ovary ( i have not been posting due to the chaos that happened last week). The ovary that we retrieved from, since the Left is i hate to say it but on vacation. Should I be concerned. Has anyone else experienced this?? I have done a little research on the internet, and some of it was pretty scary. BTW: i am feeling nauseous!! I can't wait until 12 weeks (Christmas Day , so hopefully it will be gone!Thanks!

Faith - when I went to my first big ultrasound, I think it was around 12 weeks or so. They said that my right ovary was very enlarged and that if it didnt go down I could possibly need surgery while I was preg.! Now let me just tell you that my ob, who I trust more than anything and my Re, confirmed that they were crazy. Cysts and enlarged ovaries after ivf or infertility meds are completely normal. Dont worry you will be fine, they had me all scared for no reason, it is totally normal.
Lauren - It was cute to begin with, but I think the cuteness has gone away - now it is just HUGE!!! I will get my dh to post the picks later when he gets done wtih work.

Yay! I love this idea!! Just a quick post as I have to go get ready for my appt...and eat something!
I'm feeling pretty crappy. Some days are worse than others, but the nausea seems to just come and go...and I'm hungry all the time, but I don't feel like eating really anything...yuck! Anyways, I'll catch up more later - happy Monday to all.

Jen78: m/s = good ole morning sickness
Everything will be fine - you are pregnant. Your little bean is so so so small, but alive and growing every day! I can't wait to hear about your first US! So exciting! DH & I both burst into tears when we saw his little heartbeat flickering on the screen - AMAZING!! I started showing around 8-9 weeks. Looking back, 8 weeks looks like nothing compared to now.Sara: If you post a bell pic, I will promise to post one too!! ![]() Faith: I had to inject 2cc IM of PIO for 13 weeks after ET. RE slowly decreased the dose bc I was having horrible headaches. The absence of PIO cleared up the headaches. I'm sorry to hear about the cysts that were found last week - I don't know much about this? You should def. ask RE/OB to find out all you can. When is your next appt? JoJo: I had n/s (night sickness) that began each night around 4pm and lasted until 2-3:00am. It was over by 14 weeks. Ash: Can't wait to hear!! |
