I'm due September 1st with number 2 conceived through IVF. Bundle of excited nerves after a hard road conceiving including an ectopic 3 months ago. Would love to talk to fellow September Mummas to be who are in these scary early days! I see there's a big July/August/September forum but I don't want to join a huge group with other due months, anyone on here just found out they're due September?

I am also due 1st September through IVF. I have had 3 ectopics all up the last one in August. So I know how you feel I'm so nervous about all the early monitoring it's doing my head in and I only found out today

Congratulations Kumeroa, here's hoping this is your take home rainbow! I found out yesterday and I was sure I wasn't pregnant, so it was a complete amazing surprise. The monitoring with my ectopic got me so stressed I refused my last couple of blood tests and just waited for the scan to confirm. I almost said yesterday to the nurse don't tell me my level but then she said it was 450 something which is higher than it ever got in my first fortnight with my ectopic. I have had a small amount of pink spotting today and on Weds which I'm hoping isn't anything to worry about. My boobs are crazy sore and I'm quite teary but I'm hanging out for bad morning sickness to start to reassure me! I had hyperemesis with my now 2yp. So I guess I'm hopeful but still nervous, it is so hard to get excited when you are feeling so scared! Where in NZ are you?

Yes I so understand that. I didn't ask for my number yesterday. I didn't want to know as it stresses me out. Hoping they will give a scan at 6 weeks to put my mind at rest. I don't feel pregnant at all. But that's ok it will come feeling a lot better about it today. We are lower north island. Where are you?

Yes I didn't want to know but then when I heard it was high it actually helped calm my anxiety slightly. Could have gone the other way and freaked me out though. Next BT is Weds and I'm going to say I don't want to know levels and push for a 6w scan. I'm with FAW under AM, they're back from the 3/1/17 and I'm hoping they'll squeeze me in for a scan end of that week! I don't feel pregnant either, like my sore boobs are nothing specific to being pregnant, and being a bit teary could easily be the time of year. Maybe a bit queasy first thing when I wake but I'm allergic to the morning anyway haha! But because I now know I'm pregnant I'm attributing those things to pregnancy. With my 2yo I didn't even know I was pregnant at this point! My emotions tip around a lot, excited to nervous to happy to anxious! It's hard to be excited (because it is so exciting) while still reserving too much excitement and embryo love by way of protecting myself! My husband and I are just debating telling our parents and maybe siblings, it's hard to know if/when we should! Have you told anyone?

We told my mother in law last night and will tell my parents on Xmas day they know we have had IVF so it's a bit hard to hide the results haha. We have a nearly 3 yo too. I'm closer to palmy so not sure if they will scan me there or have to go to Wellington for it.

Oh right yes that makes it tricky. I was really open about our first IVF attempt that ended in the ectopic and it was really hard, so we didn't tell anyone about the FET. It's a tough one because they'll likely have to pick up pieces if it doesn't work out, so at least having some excited days beforehand makes us think we'll tell them. But just discovered I'm spotting again this morning, it's very upsetting and I am getting increasingly worried about it. I didn't bleed at all with my 2yo, but I also know spotting/bleeding in first trimester can be totally normal. After the last year though I wouldn't exactly be shocked to miscarry on Christmas Day. This ttc/pregnancy thing is really hard!

Oh Hun keep your head up. I have read spotting is so common in early preg and even more so in IVF pregnancies. Try putting your feet up for the rest of day if possible and take it easy over Xmas. Just think positive. I know how hard that is after ectopic as that is an experience I would t wish on anyone. And while technically I shouldn't have anymore ectopics as I have no tubes now it still scares me. It will all be alright you had a great first hcg just focus on that.

Thanks Kumeroa, we had a really nice and relaxed Christmas! How was your Christmas? I bet your parents were excited with your news! Yeah, here's hoping bloods look good tomorrow, I'm nervous but hopeful. When's your next beta?
Surprised no other due September Mummas on here yet! I guess that's what happens when you're due the first of the month, haha! Do you want to move to a FB 'due Sept' group Kumeroa? Or wait until there are a few more of us..?

It went well, thank you for asking! I didn't get my number but nurse said my HCG was tracking nicely along the 100th percentile. Not overly sure what that means but so long as it's tracking along nicely I'm very happy! My next BT is next Thurs, scan booked for the 18th. Still haven't relaxed into being pregnant, even with good HCG results. But definitely found it reassuring I've had spotting and HCG rising well anyway. I hope all is looking good from your beta tomorrow, will be thinking of you so let me know how you go!

Yes with my ectopic my HCG was rising but too slowly and also too low, so my results thus far are reassuring. It's going to be an anxious 8ish months though I'm sure! I hope your results today help ease your worries.
I found a Facebook due group for NZ due September Mums through the Huggies page; if you add 'September Hopes' (profile pic is a rainbow light) then she will add you to the group and you can unfriend her. Otherwise if you leave your email here I can add you that way :)
