I am 6 weeks today and super nervous since my symptoms (which really has only been sore/sensitive breasts and tiredness) disappeared in the middle of the night last night. I don’t even feel that tired pregnant feeling. For context, in 2023 I had a chemical pregnancy at 5.5 weeks, I went on to have a successful pregnancy with my son (who’s 2 now). While trying for our second I was diagnosed with unexplained secondary infertility and we just found out we are pregnant through IVF! My first two betas were really strong but I am freaking out something has happened since the symptoms disappearing was my first sign with my chemical. I took a pee test today and it is still really dark but I’m just so scared it’s happening again. I know no one can tell me what’s going to happen and anything is possible at this point, it’s just been a long and brutal process to get here, I was diagnosed with OHSS when I first found out I was pregnant, had to be hospitalized and then had paracentesis (draining of 4L). I am still bloated but significantly less. I guess I am just coming here for morale support and if anyone has experienced something similar with positive outcomes. I tried not to take progress pregnancy tests to compare lines but I have taken them every now and then to give me reassurance, both yesterday and today are still super dark yesterday looked like a dye stealer and today just super dark not sure if that’s concerning or not. I have my 7week ultrasound in 1 week..

Thanks everyone for being such a supportive group ❤️

Hi 👋

Sorry this is just a rant/if anyone is going through a similar experience.

First child we had with very little difficulty, I got pregnant second month of trying, had a chemical miscarriage and then got pregnant with my little boy immediately after. No complications thankfully.

Now, we wanted children close in age so we have been now trying for 13, going on 14, months with no success. We have gone through the fertility clinics and everything looks “perfect” in their words. We have done the hycosy and 4 months of letrozole with no success and today Aunt Flo visited :/

We are biting the bullet and are starting our IVF journey. I’m scared, I’m mad about the cost of everything, and I have so many people telling me that it will just happen naturally to just not stress and not do IVF. It makes me feel like I’m doing something wrong. It’s hard because I feel so grateful for our son, but I also feel so sad that I’m not pregnant yet.

Sorry, I will end the rant/complaint now 😅
