IVF Babies Due August/Sept/Oct '16

[Hopeful37]

@Chillout71 sounds ok to me? Did the nurses say it's ok? From what I've read hcg can double over 48-72 hours so over 5 days for it to go up from 1600 to 6000 sounds on track? When is your scan? Mine is in a week and it can't come quickly enough! I don't really have any symptoms other than sore bloods and occasionally feeling a little queasy. A bit freaked out by my lack of symptoms!!

[Hopeful37]

I have an appointment and scan with my OB tomorrow and I'm so nervous... I hope everything is ok...

Goodluck mona! How far along are you?

[Chillout71]

Hopeful37 yes everyone is happy with the levels so I guess I should be relaxed! My 7wk scan is next Wednesday. The thought of people waiting to have a scan at 12w is beyond my comprehension! How do they do it???!

[Hopeful37]

I know easier said than done isn't it, it's so hard to relax this early!! I know what you mean, waiting this finally week to my 7week scan next Monday is driving me mad! The 12 week one is going to be so hard

[ttc1981]

Yep the 12 week scan I think is a hard one to wait for... Our 7 week one I was relaxed but this one I am thinking about! Bring on Monday and knowing

[Hopeful37]

Is anyone going to do that blood test you do where they send it off to the states? I don't know the name of it

[MrsTugs]

The harmony test. I have mine next week.

[ttc1981]

I have my scan next week then going advice from there but I think we will be doing the harmony test as well peace of mind and knowing the sex of the baby earlier would be nice

[Hopeful37]

Cool thanks @MrsTugs I wondered what the name was. What does it check for exactly?

I'm in two minds. Our embryo was PGD'd so we already know it's normal at least in terms of Downs, Turner etc, so it would only be for the extremely rare micro-deletions. Our FS says we probably don't need it. But do you leave it to chance? We need to decide in the next week.
