I don't know how to do the signature like that?

I am 32 and hubby is 33. How old are you other ladies?

Lagogies....what a long journey this has been for you! At which stage are you now? You got a bfp...so you are definitely pregnant... Perhaps with twins. YOu only see doc at 10w now? Is that summary correct?

Watsapp group would be good. We all have emergencies or questions at weird times...so a nice way to keep in touch.

Hi Simone welcome and congrats.

You can read my signature and see all. Please do a signature with you age, hubbys age etc gor the newbies.

Not really bad nausea just last night. Has been queasy since 5/6 days after Embrio transfer and sore boobs since round about same time. Must be all hormones on ivf!

You are all so lucky my gynae does the scans on 10 weeks so I dont even have a date yet. At least I can say I saw my bubba/s on 2 cells and 4 cells(day 2). Fell totally in love now the long wait.

Whats up group can work. We might still get late joiners

lol...no problem ladies! But I assure you...even with 2 kids already...I am no expert;) Happy to help where I can though.

Thank you Simone, hope you are ready for us peppering you with questions

Awesome, thanks now we get it. I am def going to tap into your wisdom and experience .

anjelee don't be nervous....hmmm or wait...maybe you should be?? lol. Just kidding...you ladies are going to have a blast!!

TanyaS...6w is early...they may not detect a heartbeat at that stage..it's literally on the border. I went at 5 odd weeks with Addison and then had to go back after 7 weeks. I'll be 11 weeks at my first scan...which is a bit late.

Yes you go once a month for checkup. 13w downs scan and blood tests, 20w foetal assessment scan (some doctors don't do these). From about 32 weeks you go every 2nd week. Then from 36w I think every week.

I have no idea, I think they wanted my first visit to be next week, but the docter is on leave for the long weekend. I wish I had an earlier scan, I think it will put your mind at ease. I know you can hear the baby's heartrate by 6 weeks, so maybe you will be lucky.

My GP did however send a complete bloodtest to the gynea, so dont know if thats the reason why the first visit is only at 9 weeks. The GP did explain that if your progestrone levels are low, they will have to do other tests and a scan. Apparantly alll my bloodwork came back good, so hoping its a good sign!
