21 weeks - update
Hello girls,
I am still here stalking you :) I just don't participate as much as I used to, but I still read your updates and check your charts, etc.
Just want to give you an update on me.
21 weeks today - I truly can't believe it. 6 months ago when my first IVF ended in chemical I was devastated and thought it would never happen but it did :) 2nd time it worked !!!
We are heaving a boy and I am due in March. Life has been crazy and time is flying. There is so much to do before baby gets here and I hate to wait till the last minute so I have been trying to check things off my list as much as I can :D
I think we are going with name Sebastian - it is an easy name to pronounce in both Polish and English language and the name is growing on us every day.
Baby and mama are doing great. I can feel him kicking and I get worried when I don't feel him for a day or so.
This has not been an easy journey as some of you might know. I had some spotting/bleeding at 13 weeks (only lasted 2 days) and then same thing happened at 14 weeks and it lasted an entire week but we are good. All ultrasounds came up good so far and I have another one coming in 3 weeks to check the heart of the baby - apparently there is slightly increase chance of heart defects when you get pregnant via IVF (not that much higher) and they like to check the heart just in case.
I try not to post a lot as I know it is hard on you lovely ladies to be here and trying and reading all the "i'm pregnant" announcements when you have been waiting so long.
I know it will happen for you and I will be stalking you and telling you at the end "I told you so :) " and I can't wait to say that to you.
Sending lots of love
Basia

Glad to see that your doing really well. Congratulations. I hope you are enjoying being pregnant and everything that comes with it. Clothes not fitting right, not being able to tie your own shoe, getting kicked in the middle of the night. Good luck!! Have a happy and healthy 9 months!!
