Thats my wish for all of us trying it again and very healthy pregnancy and babies for you all going thru it now. GOD IS GREAT!!!! XOXOXOXOXOXO TO ALL
Mystery- Good luck on your scan tomorrow. I know all will be perfect with your little bean. My doctor told me that they wanted to keep me on the progesterone shots and HCG shots until my clot disappeared and i stop bleeding. I'm still bleeding in a.m. and in the p.m heavy spotting. I was told the shots help to calm my uterus so that i dont have cramps which might push the blood clot out they want to blood clot to hopefully reabsorb. You havent had much bleeding so i have faith your blood clot will subside soon. My bleeding has gotten less so i am hoping the clot will reabsorb by 2nd trimester. You and your lil bean are in my prayers.
Kahlua141-It sounds like things are really going well with you that they are able to start to decrease your meds. By next week hopefully your sick feeling will start to subside and you'll start to feel normal. Good luck on your scan this weds.
verysoon-i know it will be "very soon "that you'll be joing our group,its probably good that your AF is taking a while, its good to give your body a little more time to recover from last procedure. I know how frustrating it can be to have to wait, but i'm sure the wait will be well worth it. You have a really good positive attitude and i know god will bless you with a baby soon.

Hi all!
I am on prenatals and still on pio shots and suppositories..my 9 wk scan is wed and all is good i will be released on meds..instructions to start decreasing at.. 10 wk and come off completely at 14..they are being very cautious due to low prog being a possible reason why i miscarried in the past..I am feeling very sick and hungry..hoping the feelin passes soon! I am sure th high level of hormones is playing a part!
Glad to hear you are all feelin well!
mystery- good luck on your scan!
versoon- i hear ya about catching up..we had to pay off 1 to start 2! That is so good that u can do a FET!

Hey gals, just checking in. I just got updated by the post, i'm happy for you and praying that you all have a continued happy and healthy 9 months. I can only imagine what you guys are going through with nerves. But please don't forget to try and enjoy this time b.c it flies by.
About me- Still waiting for AF to show up, it's been a few weeks now. So, i'm assuming anyday.. Although we did receive the "final bill" from the IVF proceedure and that wasn't great. We can't move forward with the FET until that balance is taken care of...so we are kind of ok that AF hasnt showed up b/c we haven't come up with all of that balance yet.
I am still taking my Actosplus meds (2x a day) and my Prenatal vita. I wont switch over to Metforman until I am pregnant again. And I wont start back on my estrogen patches and progestrone inserts until we start the FET.

I was told that at about 7.5 weeks the placenta starts taking over from your ovaries in supporting the baby. So from about 8 weeks you get a decrease in pregnancy hormones which is why sickness and cravings often improve.
I was also told to stop progesterone at 9 weeks as it helps your ovaries support the baby, but as this is now being done by the placenta it will no longer help - the 9 weeks cut off provides a little bit of overlap after the transition period.
I have another scan tomorrow morning and am hoping for some good news re the blood clot!
