Hi everyone, I know I have been MIA from the board about a week, but I had gone out of town to visit my cousin to get away.

I had my first u/s today & I am at 6w3d. It was the most wonderful experience. The sac looks great RE says its even little larger than expected, and we saw a small flicker of ...

I am also cramping on and off and am in my 5th week...it is hard not to get worried...I know....but I hear this is totally normal..

Hey everyone, I would like to join this thread. I calculated my due date to be Oct 14 based on IVF Egg retrieval date. I am real nervous and cautiously optimistic! I am in my 5th week.

I also have been cramping off and on for a week now. One day at work cramps got pretty intense, but there was no ...

Hello, Mynala I will pray for you....I know it will be a long and agonizing weekend for you...I will keep my fingers crossed that you come back with a strong beta on Monday.....

today, Friday Feb 9th, is 16 days post transfer...

blootest for 15 days post transfer (yesterday) was 640

no, they did not explain exaclty what happened, but obviously they mixed my vial up w/someone else.

I am so relieved everything turned out O.K. My first U/S is scheduled on Feb 21....

OMG my lab results of yesterday were an error..todays beta is 640.!

Yahoooooooo

I am so relieved....what a roller coaster ride...up and down...been this way for 2 months now......

hopefully rest of my pg is uneventful.

I was given some devestating news yesterday, my beta went from a 150 on Monday to a 2 Wednesday. RE couldnt believe this, this is a very steep drop and he thinks there is a possiblity of a lab error.

I cried a bit last night, but am being strong. Hoping for a lab error, but prepared otherwise also ...

Mynala, why don't you call the nurse and ask her what your beta is. what is beta #1 and numbers for beta #2.

My first beta is 150 which was Monday, I took another blood test this morning and am awaiting the results. The nurse told me that initial beta of 150 was good but the rang of first beta is ...

Hi everyone. I cannot believe this, but I am pregnant after 13 years of marriage and 8 years of treatment. I had my first IVF in January and just got the news of my lifetime on Monday. I really couldn't believe it at first.

I am so excited, going for 2nd beta today. 1st beta was 150. I hope they ...

Hi there, Deepa, I used Henna this weekend also because I just found out I was pregnant, and did not want to use chemical dyes. Yes, it is very time consuming and I felt I had mud in my hair and it didnt provide maximum grey coverage either....so...I dunno...but I guess I will have to endure the ...

Hi skidoo, my beta is 150, and the average 1st beta I believe to be 130, so yours is good.

skidoo: congrats to you also ! that is just so awesome.

Sarita: I am sorry...please keep hope for next time.

OMG, I cannot believe that I am going to say this: but I am pregnant. After 13 years of marriage, and countless treatments. Not only that, but the embryo's they put in were not top grade...they put in a 6celled and 2X 4-celled. I really had no hope this cycle, and started mentally preparing myself ...

o.k gals, 1 more day to go before testing.....this is just so agonizing. I have not used the HPT today..I almost broke down but hubby told me I should wait for Beta......so here I am..

I still feel no symptoms whatsoever....I don't think it worked.

I wonder if people who get a BFP have any ...

HI there everyone, Skidoo, kholtan, Wisconsingal, angela1243, Cookholmes, myhb. Everyone, hope you are hanging in there...only few more days to go....

So far I have resisted the HPT....I have two lying upstairs and am so tempted, but I am just not brave enough ! I am just going to wait until Monday ...
