We're in our early 40s and had 5 embryos made when we were both 41. We got 5 very good quality embryos. We were successful with our baby boy on embryo 3. Because of our age, we've decided to just stick with one child. However, i'm now left wondering what to do with the remaining 2 frozen embryos. I ...

Wow @stargirl look at you getting ready for your next embryo! How time has flown! How have you found your first year of motherhood? @applecart Congratulations! I hope your silence is a good sign that things are going well with the pregnancy? Thinking of you. My boy has just turned 1 and he's still 9...

Hi Kmor how are you getting on? Has the sickness finally stopped? Congrats on having a boy - boys are amazing and everyone says easier than girls. Luca is nearly 6 months now! 😮 can't believe how big he is and we're due to start weaning in 2wks. I have 2 frozen embryos left and I've been wondering w...

Hi everyone! Congratulations @kmor I’m so happy for you! ❤️ I hope everything’s still going well. Good luck with the sickness, I hope you’re one of the lucky ones who doesn’t get it too bad. Huge congratulations @stargirl on your baby girl! ❤️ I hope you’re settling into motherhood and aren't too sl...

Hi @kmor How are you getting on? I'd love to hear how everyone is getting on. Yes I occasionally check to see if anyone has any updates but it seems to have gone quiet. And i'm also not sure how much people want to hear about my progress as I can imagine it might be triggering to some. Everything's ...

@stargirl Not long for you to go now! Eek how exciting! How are you giving birth? I've opted for a planned c-section. Hip pain has just started for me, but it's being caused by sleeping on my side and the extra pressure caused by my extra weight. I've put a foam mattress topper on and that's sorted ...

Good luck @kmor Being zen is a huge part of being successful imho (I took time off work to be zen for mine and it worked!)

Wow! It's crazy isn't it! I'm 25 weeks now. Are you feeling OK or do you have any aches/pains/heartburn....? I'm lucky I feel absolutely fine. I just have the odd day where my stomach feels like it's really stretching inside which makes me feel nauseous. Hey ladies, How are you all doing? I’m 30 wee...

@kim I'm so sorry to hear you only got one embryo and it didn't work. I'm as baffled as you as to why despite the extra treatment you were on you got less eggs and embryos. Makes no sense to me! And only comes back to the fact that IVF seems to be pot luck and there's still so much they don't know a...

Hope everyone is doing ok? And I hope you're able to put aside all the IVF stress during the Christmas period. @applecart Hope you're managing ok after your loss @stargirl How is your pregnancy going? I had an early anomaly scan and baby is doing well. I think i can finally let myself stop worrying ...

@applecart Very sorry you're going through that. Hope you find out what's going on soon xxx

Still feeling sick frustratingly. Had a few migraines too, my last one was Sunday and Monday and was 48 hrs of vomiting. I cant take my usual medication which gets rid of them in about 30 mins as it's aspirin based. If they keep happening I'll have to see if the Dr can give me anything. The nausea i...

@applecart Do you have your blood test results? @kmor How many embryos tested ok with the PGTA? Have you only lost one with the testing? And one that's a bit uncertain. My scan today was good 🙂 baby boy is fine in there and the midgut herniation has sorted itself out like they said it would. This is...

I get confused with all that but I started getting nausea about 5 days before my scan at Care. But my scan was a week later than they usually book because I was in Portugal. So I think that means I had the nausea in week 6? or would it be 5? Yes I think it will be the equivalent of the 12wk scan. It...

@applecart Thinking of you. I'm sure the aspirin won't have made any difference. And I wouldn't worry about having no symptoms yet. You're still very early. I don't think I had any symptoms until about week 5 or 6. When you get symptoms you'll be wishing you didn't have them believe me! I would glad...

I spoke too soon, threw up loads last night 😂 I'm good thanks, 12 wks tomorrow and still nauseous - i hoped it would have gone by now but at least im nit being sick anymore so I'll take that! How many weeks are you now? Are your scans all looking good? @kim89! Have you started now? So exciting! How ...

@applecart Yay! Congratulations!!! Superb news.

I was an early tester too (from 6dpt). I wouldn't worry about the strength of the line, it just matters that it's there. Won't be long until your scan!

I'm good thanks, 12 wks tomorrow and still nauseous - i hoped it would have gone by now but at least im nit being sick anymore so I'll take that! How many weeks are you now? Are your scans all looking good? @kim89! Have you started now? So exciting! How are you doing @siba? @applecart hope you’re do...

@applecart Have you done your test? Hope you're OK xx

It was third time lucky for me too!

I'm currently 11 weeks pregnant with a a baby boy (my life is currently nausea and vomiting)

How far are you?

Hopefully it’s 3 times lucky for all of us
Wishing you all the best

Care told me you can drink caffeine. I think it was 2 a day! I've read a lot of sources that say not to though so I wouldn't advise it and I don't know why they do. I drink caffeine free tea from Lidl. 4 days left! Good luck 🤞🤞🤞 Thank you :) If you have any tips/advice on any pre/post FET care for m...

@stargirl celebrating with another early night as I've had a very nauseous day today

Good news! The IONA test has come back as low risk (<0.01%) for downs, Edwards and Patau's

And we're having a boy!

I feel I can finally relax a bit now and accept that I'm having a baby

I'll be having one at 13 weeks. I'm not quite sure how the confusion happened. When I called it was to see if I could move the 12wk scan & blood test earlier so that's what I thought they'd done. Probably got confused with all the terminology. She called it IONA test but the last time I had it, ...

Went for a scan and blood test today at the hospital, which I thought was my 12 week one moved forward to 10 weeks, but it turns out it was just a dating scan and they thought I was having the private £405 IONA test. Anyway, in the end I did go for the IONA because I couldn't stand the thought of wa...
