fkm7783 - I am having the exact same thing, only it is pink watery spotting. I had a little bit this morning on a panty liner and then this afternoon some dark brown on the toilet tissue only. I am 6w1d pregnant and have my first u/s on Thursday. My two betas were strong and they didn't want to do a ...

Hi All,

I am getting worried. Today I started spotting pink and it hasn't let up yet. It is just a little on my panti liner. I also have cramps. I called my doctor and she said that it can be very normal and not to come in unless it is gushing. I have an u/s on Thursday scheduled anyway, but I am ...

Hi Moms,

I have a question for you all. Declan is sick with a double ear infection. He had a cold last week and started running a fever over the weekend. Anyway, since it took three different antibiotics to cure his last ear infection, the doctor decided to give him a really strong one right from ...

gi - Don't give up! I have been there - six times - and I know exactly how you feel. Your body is totally freaking out and making you feel crazy. Take a deep breath and try to regain your PMA. (((hugs)))

So I got my second beta - 285 - which means it tripled. I don't have to go back for anymore ...

lisa10 - I am so sorry you are stuck in beta limbo (Yes HCG is the same as "beta"). Hang in there and we will all pray for you.

As far as the FET proceedure, I just went though one. It is pretty easy. They shut down your ovaries with Lupron then start the estrace and progesterone and on the day of ...

Hey, It looks like a BFP for me!!!! Beta from yesterday was 90. I retest tomorrow and hope it doubles! My progesterone was a little low - 18 so they are having me take it orally as well as the suppositories and PIO shots. Same thing happened with the cycle that produced DS so I guess it is just how ...

Well after feeling very discouraged by my cycle, I finally broke down and POAS this morning and saw a faint second line!!!! I was using a First Response which is supposed to detect at least a beta of 25 ...

Rio - Yep. PUPO. But I am a bit discouraged. I just don't feel the same as with my BFP with Declan. I am also getting VERY nauseated from the meds this time and the PIO shots are leaving me with bruised and lumpy hips. I am using a different pharmacy this time so perhaps the oil is different. I will ...

Hi All,

I had my transfer today. They thawed two blasts and they thawed out 100% and looked perfect so we decided to only transfer one because we REALLY do not want multiples, and they refroze the remaining one. I have three frosties for later this way. I feel pretty good - just woke from my nap ...
