WineNChocolate I was on progesterone so that may be the cause of last week's bleeding. I stopped taking it late last week. Today's bleeding seems to be done so it would make sense it was related to my exam. Hopefully that's the end!!
After almost three years of TTC, IVF #1 = Menopur + Follistim + other stuff. Retrieved 14, 12 mature, 7 fertilized, only 1 (6AA) made it to day 5 blast. BFP! DD born 12-10-2016
Annnd, we have the first picture of our little squishy! Ahh! I'm so excited and relieved. I started laughing when she pulled up the picture and we could see the heartbeat flickering because I had been so anxious. Getting an official dating scan done at 1pm today since my MW doesn't do official scans in office. Also, my uterus is actually shaped like a heart. No photoshopping here.
me.28 - df.29 fate brought us together 7.2013 he decided he wanted me to stay 12.2015 trying for our first 2.2016 .. chart bfp 3.12.2016 .. edd 12.25.16
So I graduated from the RE today! I was totally verklempt the whole time. First we got to see our little tadpole who now has little ARMS and LEGS and looks like a real baby! All the measurements and the heartbeat were good so this was our very last RE appointment. After going there for almost a year it was crazy to leave.
I am going to miss my RE a lot but was also so psyched to get out of there! Also, they gave us a baby blanket with a sweet note as a graduation gift. I am barely holding it together today. The ultrasound pic is in my car and I keep wanting to go down to the parking garage just to look at it
Dating scan went well. Due date is now 12/25 since squish is measuring 8w4d. Heart rate was 174bpm. We also got a 3D scan! DF put an announcement on his office door and we're waiting to see if any of his labmates notice.

You'd be surprised! lol. These scientists are a riot sometimes. DF said it was like a social experiment he was running. Took over four hours for just one person to come say something to him!
edited to add: Not that there's anything wrong with scientists. I'm marrying one and having his child. They just sometimes live in their own worlds when they are in the middle of experiments. It's pretty amazing to watch.

congrats on graduating from the RE!! I'm so jealous of your baby blanket. I thought us getting a fancy certificate was cool.

HaHa I am a scientist myself and I can attest that we live in our own little world sometimes. And we are a very private bunch, so I don't see a lot of my colleagues even questioning me if I'm pregnant or not for a long time.

And welcome to the Christmas baby club!!
I'm gonna join you guys too. I was measuring a little bit ahead today at 8+4.
I still have a healthy squish! My second ultrasound was this morning, and it was awesome. I had jokingly said before the doctor came in that I wanted to see the baby wave its arm buds around during the scan, and IT TOTALLY HAPPENED. I may have gotten a little teary.
Little One is still measuring on track and has a HB of 175. I've officially graduated from the RE to a normal OB!!
IVF+ICSI March 2016 (6R/5M/5F - 3 embryos on ice) 4/7/16: first ever BFP! EDD: 12/17/16 DS Arrived via C-Section 12/19/16! FET #1 June 2019 - 1 embryo didn't survive thaw & the one that did didn't stick around. BFN FET #2 September 2019 - last embryo didn't survive thaw.

So I'm clearly catching on up here today! (Been busy with work/selling our place/looking for a new place/life in general!)
I had my scan almost two weeks ago, saw my doctor last week. There was a slight subchorionic hemorrhage (sp?) on the US, not near the baby. She said not to be concerned, that it's common and they mostly clear up on there own, but of course I was freaking out. Trying to come to terms that everything's okay. I have not had any bleeding or spotting. Otherwise baby was measuring good. My sister (also an OB) noticed as well and said not to worry since it's not near the baby, so I'm staying hopeful that everything is ok!
xoxo, I have an SCH too and it sucks not knowing how things will go. That is great though that you've heard from two people that you shouldn't be concerned based on location! My RE and OB both said mine was small and neither one seemed super concerned, but it's still in the back of my mind for sure!!
Winnifred, thanks for sharing! It makes it a little easier hearing that someone else is going through the same thing! FWIW my sister thinks they're seeing more SCH because the really early ultrasounds pick them up and they're usually gone by the 12 week. Basically I might have not even known about it or seen it, if I had not gone in for an early ultrasound. Not sure if that's just a sister comforting a sister, or if there's any truth to that!
Yay @kc295905!!! I love that you can see the little face and legs!! I'm not due for another ultrasound until at least 18 weeks so I am so jealous!! Also, not to be too stalkerish, but I just noticed we have the same birthday!! Two years apart, but same date!
