Thank you so much for the great ideas everyone!!! I have noticed her attention span slightly improving since I put the post up.

Loopie - she does nap pretty well, unless we had a rough night. Also, funny you should suggest driving dh to work! I tried that once, and it's an hour each way due to rush ...

Hi,
I have a 4 month old dd. We are stuck inside all the time because of the weather and having no car (my dh drives it to work). I am exhausted from being up all night (dh doesn't help) and am having trouble figuring out how to entertain her. Any suggestions? She has the exersaucer and the gymini ...

My 2 month old has been having this problem over the last week since we switched to formula only from breastfeeding. I started feeding her 2 oz. of apple juice, twice/day. I give it to her after feeding her formula, so she's not starving and she will eat it then but not before the formula. This ...

Kbat, I posted on the other thread too, but Kelly is right - my first beta was a 7, and it quadrupled, and then two days later they made me take another beta and it quadrupled again. Then they left me alone! My first u/s is on Wednesday so I am sure hoping for good news. I would take a maybe over a ...

Oh my gosh kbat, that's great news - it's not a BFN!!!! I can relate - my first beta was a 7, and they really weren't thrilled about it. But it quadrupled in 2 days, and then they made me wait 2 more days and do yet another beta. It was super frustrating and I kept feeling like they would take it ...

Sending you lots of good vibes today kbat!!!!!!!!!!!

hi Michelle,

Welcome! I can relate to your story, at least some of it. I am also 35 and I didn't want kids until I finished nursing school (last year). I've only been married 2 years and have no health problems. Turns out my FSH is high (12.5) and my dh has a morphology problem w/ his sperm. Our RE ...

I had cramps on and off before my first beta... felt like AF was coming. So maybe it's a good sign! I still just have a small crampy feeling.

I didn't POAS, and I think you're being smart to just watch for AF... that will tell you either way how it's going. I know it will be good news for you on ...

Oh cornybaby, I am so sorry to hear your news. That absolutely sucks. You have such a strong spirit and a positive attitude. I know next time will be your BFP!!!! ((((HUG))))

Having a drink is a good idea... that's exactly what I did after my bfn on my last cycle....

I am thinking of you and you ...

Thanks alittlegrace! I was so surprised, but so happy. I did a lot of things differently this time, most of which were suggestions from this site. My first u/s is one week from today. I know that we will hear good news from you in January!!! :D

Hang in there kbat - less than a week now until your ...

That's awesome dreambaby!!!!!!!! I completely know how you feel - it's like they are finally saying you are actually pregnant!! It feels amazing.

My u/s is a week from today, 11/28. They said that was the earliest date we could do it. I can't wait!!!!!!

What a list we're making! Cornybaby, we'll be waiting for your news!!!! Fingers crossed!!!!!!!!!!!

I had my third beta today, and it tripled!!! So no more betas for me. Fetal sac scan is in a week! wow!

Congratulations gekasbaby and dreambaby!!!!!! Let's keep the BFP's coming!!!!

Hang in there, cornybaby. Don't give up... think positive!!!

I've spent the last 2 days fighting with my dh (who is angry because I'm depressed and worried that a 7 beta is too low) and scared to death because my cramping went away. I had pretty much given up; no cramps this morning whatsoever ...

I had mild OHSS on this cycle... 30 follies, estrogen 4400 and 27 eggs. I think the description "having your stomach run over by a truck" is very accurate. They did put in 2 blasts at the ET, and I was glad to have 5 days of healing before the ET (also froze 2... rest weren't good). I drank tons of ...
