We had our anatomy scan yesterday at 19.5 wks. Our little girl was busy and uncooperative as usual so I have to go back again in a few weeks as they couldn't get the spine pics. Otherwise everything looks good and she is measuring almost a week ahead which was a relief since I haven't been gaining weight since around 11 weeks. Still struggling to cope with the HG and have no hope of stopping meds. At this point I am just trying to eat and drink enough to keep us both alive until delivery. I have been feeling her movement off and on since 13 weeks but in the last two days it is really obvious. I can now well when she kicks and rolls.
Hope everyone else is doing well

The third trimester cannot come soon enough. I am so ready for the pregnancy to be over. I haven't gained any weight in the second trimester and last week I lost 4 lbs. I am trying to eat more this week but it has been a struggle with the nausea and heartburn.

Me- PCOS- diagnosed when 14ishDH- 100% normal
Married 2009
Took a year "off" before TTC - ha ha hind sight is a wonderful thing!
Talked to the doctor about PCOS( as he was not the one who diagnosed me with it originally)-- wanted us to ttc naturally for a year before fertility treatments.
2011- 2012- sent to RFP for a consult. Suggested to go on clomid, went on clomid for numerous cycles. Nothing was happening, phoned to get on IVF waiting list, doc told me to stay on clomid because it was working for me, just might take a little more time. (He said this without ever monitoring me). Went back to family doctor and he suggested
VFC2013-- phone consult with VFC, decided to do IVF
August 2013- Severe OHSS, all embryos frozen- 10 in total
November- 2013- set to do first FET, estrace didn't make lining thick enough and also breast lump was found (benign, but still monitoring) so cycle was cancelled.
February 2014- FET #1- BFN
April 2014- FET #2- BFN
July 2014- FET#3- BFN.......
Mock cycle to do an ERA test and do another FET if ERA comes back good.
ERA test done on Nov. 13th- results came back Receptive- thats good news i guess.... still no answers as why the previous 3 FETS didnt work
December 2014-
FET#4- BFN
Wtf appointment- doctor thinks DH and I are too genetically similar and therefore my body rejects the embryo and the NK cells take over.
January 2015- immune testing- dh and I are a partial match meaning 1 out of 4 embryo will not implant and I have high NK cells. Trying another transfer. Gluten free 12 weeks, intralipids 10 days prior to ET, and also day of ET. Prednisone and estrace.
March 19- intralipid treatment
March 29- transferred 1 grade 17 embryo using assisted hatching and more intralipids
April 10th - BETA - BFP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In total shock!
Beta#1- 335
Beta# 2- April 13- 1250 We are officially pregnant

I have been on STD since 30 weeks as couldn't keep working with the hyperemesis anymore. I was back to vomiting 8+ times a day despite all the meds and loosing a lbs per day. The weight loss has stopped with the rest and I am keeping a bit more food/fluids down. Atleast our little girl still seems to be thriving. I have an ultrasound next week to check her position as she is either deep in my pelvis already or curled up in a weird posterior/ transverse position. I am really hoping she is engaged and it means an early delivery as I am so ready to escape this pregnancy.
