Guest guest Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 We must all be on the same cycle because I just found out last week that I'm pregnant with #1! That makes me a little over 5 weeks pregnant and puts me due around June 2. I had a hard time sleeping last night because my husband is out of town at the moment and when I called my doctor's office last week they wanted me to come in right away, so I have my first prenatal appointment today. Woke up at 4am and tossed until getting up at 7:30. I can't tell you what a relief it was to get on here this morning and read about people's success stories when it comes to pregnancy and Xolair and also to know that there are others who are going through the same thing I am right now. I've been on it for 6 months and the change in my health and consequently my energy level is nothing short of a miracle. Congrats to everyone!

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 This is awesome! It gives us all hope. After doing so well on Xolair, I have been thinking if I find the right guy, I'd like to have a family. I'm 36 and hear the clock ticking. While, most of my friends were having babies in their early thirties, I was just trying to breathe and take care of myself. It was disheartening because I thought I had found someone to settle down with and my asthma seemed to control my life. There is so much to look forward, too. This is such a blessing. Please keep us informed of your progress. All the best, Webber 303.513.5653 melwebber22@... From: bisnono <bisnono@...> Subject: [ ] Re: Xolair and Pregnancy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 Wow, so there are three of us here that are pregnant right now??!! AWESOME! My due date is May 23rd 2009. I am super excited.

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 I'm 35 and we'd tried for just a couple of months so obviously it didn't appear to affect my ability to conceive, which should be a relief to anyone else over 35. Now, what'll be really interesting is to see if all of our doctors have the same recommendations for us regarding Xolair during pregnancy, or if they're different. Not sure what to expect since there are so few women who've actually taken it during pregnancy. I get two vials every two weeks because of my IgE levels, so I'm hoping that I'll be able to stay at that level during pregnancy. Should find out more this afternoon! :-) Sara > > > > > > > > > > > > Peggy, > > > > > > > > > > > > I cried when I read your e-mail a few days ago....

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 Sara, I saw your post. I am due June 3. How funny! My appointment with my obgyn is not until October 9th and I should be 6 weeks at that time. However, I did beg my pulmologist to order a pregnancy blood test last Friday and that confirmed my three pregnancy tests I had taken. Are you going to talk to your doctor about signing up for the registry? I am planning on doing that because it may help others in the future. Yes, Xolair is amazing and has certainly changed my life around completely. Hope the appointment goes well this morning!

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 I think the Xolair is causing it, YIKES on the side effects LOL On Oct 1, 2008, at 10:25 AM, Theresa wrote: > Wow, so there are three of us here that are pregnant right now??!! > AWESOME!

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 Yeah, I am 34 but I have a collapsed tube and one that is completely blocked so the odds of getting pregnant were really small, but it happened.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 This is almost creepy-we've ALL three got prenatal doc appointments on Oct. 9 AND we're ally due within a couple of weeks of each other. There's got to be something in the water! If ya'll tell me you're in Georgia, that'll be just too weird... My OB set me up for three appointments. I've got one on the 9th and one on the 24th (get to hear the heartbeat at the second one). I've also got a consult scheduled in late November with a perinatologist because I'm on Xolair, am over 35 and have an ongoing thyroid issue just to be on the safe side. My OB said I can stay on the Xolair and that it's more important to keep me (and therefore my baby) healthy by being able to breathe. Am also planning to sign up with the Xolair registry--yeah, it sort of feels like we're " pioneers " in all this! > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Peggy, > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I cried when I read your e-mail a few days ago....

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 Yes, you are right. This is alsmost creepy. Maybe the side effect of Xolair is indeed pregnancy :-) No, I live in Kansas... probably a reason for my allergies along with the asthma. Did your obgyn refer you to a perinatologist or did they suggest it? I am 36, on Xolair and have high blood pressure, so I think that's the route I will probably end up going. Theresa, you asked about the registry. That is on the Xolair website. Also, your pulmologist may know about it. They basically want to know which women are pregnant and follow them through their pregnancy with phone interviews to see how things are going. Here is the link: http://www.xolairpregnancyregistry.com/ I hope that all the others in this group are not annoyed with all of our prego talk :-) ----- Original Message ---- From: bisnono <bisnono@...> Sent: Wednesday, October 1, 2008 6:05:05 PM Subject: [ ] Re: Xolair and Pregnancy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 Will stick to discussing clinical info of interest to future Xolair users in our position.
