Everything looked good today! Put me down for a

Well, it sounds like this is a good time to be getting a scan! Congrats everybody with all of the good news

Tomorrow is my day. I'm a little nervous, but hey - not as bad as waiting for the BFP test. That was the longest two weeks ever!

We live in Kansas City.

We asked the embryologist the same types of questions on the day of our transfer. The bottom line is that they don't have a clue what will develop/stick and what won't. For every piece of literature they have with one outcome, they have another to contradict it. We aren't very patient people, are we ...

My first pregnancy was a chemical pregnancy. I had a miscarriage at 9 weeks. It was heartbreaking. I'm glad that I found out that it was coming though. I new within 72 hours because of the HcG tests that they did. I didn't really have a chance to experience the real joy of being pregnant because it ...

Congrats to Susan and Dora!!! Glad to hear things are going well.

doraglasses,

good luck to you!

Susanp -

Look at the cramps like something is growing versus something trying to get out (like we do, or did, with AF).

Until the doc tells you something is wrong, don't worry.

Think about how many hurdles we have had to get through just to get to the scan! Stims, follicle scans, retrieval ...

Great news! My HcG has more than doubled in the past 48 hours, so I'm right on track for my first scan on October 6th.

I can breathe for two weeks! Wait....no I can't, because I'm so bloated that my pants are too tight!

I'm not saying that 3600 is impossible, but one week after conception? And you can see the egg in the uterus one week after conception? If that's true, I'll get myself in for a scan tomorrow. My doc is telling me that I will get a scan at 6-7 weeks.

I second the bloating. I feel like I'm bloated up to my ribs! I've been waking up at night sweating and having to empty my bladder...frustrating for somebody who used to sleep through the night!

I'm experiencing a significant decrease in appetite and an overall "icky" feeling in my stomach. I haven ...

My RE has me come in for the first blood test (which was yesterday) then again in 48 hours (which will be tomorrow). If the HcG doubles during that time, he's happy. If not....then another test in 48 hours. I went through this last time, but I must admit, my symptoms are much stronger this time and ...

I have my own thread!!! You guys are just fabulous. It's been a really long road. My HCG was 265 today....deep breath....13 days post retrieval.

I hope the next test goes well. It's one day at a time with IVF.

HUGS to all of you!

WOO-FREAKING-HOO

POSITIVE!!!! POSITIVE!!!!

I have my blood test tomorrow. My nerves are a mess today.
