Thought I'd pop by and say hi

Waitingforourmiracle profile image

So I must admit I've avoided posting here much as I know what it's like to see pregnancy updates, scans etc.

However like so many here I have suffered so thought I'd quickly pop by with an update to give others hope.

I will be 21 weeks pregnant tomorrow with our first baby a little girl which we are so happy about. She comes after 3 ivfs including a mmc from our first round.

Apart from spotting in the first two weeks of pregnancy and two emergency scans everything has gone smoothly since. She's wriggling/kicking away as I write this.

I won't post any scan pics as I know that can be a trigger for some. But I hope our little rainbow can give you all some hope. I honestly truly believed I'd never have a baby and now I finally believe I will. Roll on November where get to meet our little miracle princess Isla Rose (not double barrelled)

Sending you all so much love and babydust - if I can do it you can too - just find the strength to keep going xxx

Thanks for your lovely update. I think most people love to hear the positive outcomes othwewise it would be a very sad forum. I'm 13 weeks pregnant after my first round of ivf worked (I'm still in shock!) and hearing people get through pregnancy milestones after ivf reassures me when I'm worrying. I hope the rest of your pregnancy goes smoothly - I bet you can't wait to meet your little girl. All the best xx

Congratulations Jo! Just read your profile what grade embryo’s did you have put back? I had one 4bb put back yesterday and have two in the freezer out of 6 eggs collected. Xx

Thank you JoJo and congratulations to you too. I don't think the worry ever goes, each milestone brings some worry but we are both past the most risky part now. Wishing you all the best for the rest of your pregnancy xxx

With my dates being brought forward I’m 21 weeks today 😀 so close with our IVF miracles! We decided on Monday not to find out what ours was but I need to go back in 2 weeks as baby (just like at 12 weeks) wasn’t lying in the right position to get all the measurements 🙄 ours is naughty already 😉 Wishing you all the best for the rest of your pregnancy x
