I hear you on the nasal congestion too- so weird!

I had that with this pregnancy so far (when i had symptoms at all) and I definitely remember that with DD. It seemed like every time I panicked about my nausea going away with her, I'd get twice as much the next day (or even a few hours later!) ;)

And in other news, just received an outrageous bill from my endometrial biopsy in DECEMBER. 700!!! I'm so stressed. I feel so haunted by these losses at every step of this process it seems. We had even met our deductible so now I'm even more confused why insurance hadn't covered the procedure.

TP, you can always have the office resubmit to insurance. Also, you can apply for assistance if it’s unreasonable. We had to do payment plans with our last babe and had unexpected costs come up and ended up with an outrageous bill. We finally got that paid off. But a payment plan was the only way.

Okay ladies. We have exactly 10 people in our lives who know about this pregnancy. We are a little scared to announce it to family, being as this is our 5th little love and they just begged us to stop at 3. [emoji51][emoji51][emoji30] We plan on telling them at 12 weeks. We’re tempted to wait until I just can’t hide it any longer. but here’s the thing, I kinda want to make it memorable. So do y’all have any ideas? And I guess after announcing it to family, how do you announce the 5th?!? I mean, do people just expect you not to announce it? Haha, can you tell we don’t think this one will be positively received by many?

TP that's so stressful! I have no suggestions as things work a bit differently in my part of the world but maybe give them a call and see if it should be covered.

I totally think a memorable (memorable for you atleast) announcement is always nice. 1st baby or 5th baby or 10th baby it's always a celebration.
Do you mean an in person announcement or social media announcement?

I saw this cute thing on pinterest. It was done like a movie poster. I'll try upload a picture of it. It made me chuckle. If we end up with a "surprise " after this baby I think I'll do something like it.

In person I don't really know for a 5th... only have done a second baby so far and I had my son ask family members to read him the book "there's a house in mummy's tummy ".
I'm sure they will all be excited when you announce it.

Oh, I know :( I'm stressed because we're already doing so any payment plans for everything else still! (Still paying off the IVF waste of time; still paying off the scans FOR IVF; still paying off the bloodwork!). Now a whole other huge bill to pay every month if I can get this split up :/ And I'm also constantly stressed since we still haven't paid all of the genetic testing yet for IVF -- I keep dreading that bill.

Insurance paid SOME of it, which is why I'm like, "Wait... we should only have had to pay 10% max." I'm going to call insurance today, but that's always such a frustrating process as I'm sure my fellow Americans know haha

As for announcing -- I think it's wonderful you still want to do something special! Just because it's number 5 doesn't make baby any less special!! I wonder if you could think of things that come in 5s and do something fun with that. I thought of 'five golden rings' in the Christmas song? Partridge in a pear tree? Especially since baby will be due a month or so after Christmas, right? :) Maybe a "We're getting our five golden rings a little late for Christmas"?

I love fun announcements!

Sorry TP - dealing with insurance and the high cost of everything health-related is so frustrating. We maxed out our FSA this year thinking we'd be using it for the labor & delivery of a baby and instead so far we've been using it for my D&C, RPL testing, etc.

Did you have your scan yet?

I'm having a hard time keeping up with this board the past few days - I'm just so ridiculously tired. I feel like I could sleep all day long. The nausea seems to be slightly picking up too - but I'm surprised I'm not vomiting. Wishing I had another ultrasound this week instead of having to wait until next Thursday - I already need to know again that all is ok!

Hi guys!

I just left the ER with bleeding. I should be 7 weeks pregnant today minimum. The ultrasoundshowed a yolk sac but no fetal pole. So exactly what a 5 week ultrasound would show. They asked if my dates were off but I know it's not- my first positive test was May 24. My HCG is only 4,769 which is around 4-5 week levels. I need to follow up in a week for another ultrasound and possible D/C. I know I’m losing this baby there’s no way it should only be five weeks.

Anyway loving all the good news here- I’ll probably keep checking in on you guys!!! For those that had losses, when did you start to try again?

Oh no!! I’m so sorry. Prayers coming
