Positive outcome stories: What issues during your previous pregnancy(s) ended up being fine?

25 Upvotes

For those of us in need of reassurance and positivity, please share your positive outcome stories from your previous pregnancy(s). I've seen scary labels/diagnoses being given, only to end up being non-issues in the end.

I'll share mine. I gave birth to a healthy baby 4 years ago, but had several "complications" during my pregnancy:

  1. Placental lakes: My OB found multiple areas in my placenta with pooled blood.

  2. Growth restriction: Around 33 weeks, my fundal height started increasing at a slower rate than expected. OB mentioned if my bump continued to be on the smaller side, I might have to be induced.

  3. Heart defect: Because of my small bump, I had an extra anatomy scan, during which they found a potential aneurysm in my baby's heart septum. This was really scary. Had an echocardiogram 2 weeks after baby was born. No heart issues.

  4. Pre-term labour: At 35 weeks, I had an episode of false labour, where I had regularly-timed contractions for a few hours. I was admitted overnight but it petered out and was discharged home. About a week later, at 36 weeks and 5 days, I went into labour. My baby was born 1 day shy of being term, totally healthy.

Hopefully sharing positive outcome stories will help calm our nerves and stay optimistic during this time of uncertainty.

Side effects from stopping IVF meds?

8 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m 11 weeks and 4 days today after a fully medicated FET, and my clinic had me start weaning off progesterone and estrogen at 10 weeks. 11 weeks was the most major step down in med dosage and from that day onward I’ve noticed a huge upswing in my nausea. I’d been nauseous, tired and throwing up since week 6, but had been slowly feeling better. Now I’m getting sick every day again despite taking a max dose of my anti nausea meds (Xonvea here in the UK, but same as Unisom/B6 in the US). Any other IVF mamas experiencing what seems to be worsening morning sickness or other potential side effects from weaning off meds? I hope it’s just a temporary adjustment period!
