Thanks ladies for all the well wishes. It's amazing to me sometimes how strong women are. We go through so many things and take it all in stride. I work with all men. None of whom know I am pregnant. Every day is a struggle to go to work with a smile on my face with this nasty morning sickness but ...

Ladies, if you haven't already, come on over the the pregnant after treatment board. We are all in the April babies thread. I think everyone has had their official betas by now so you will probably get more action on the other board.

Hope everyone is doing well. We saw our little beans HB today so ...

Praise God we saw the heartbeat!!! My doctor said my little bean is right on track and measuring at 7 weeks like it's suppose to. He was really surprised given a week ago today we saw nothing but an empty sack. DH and I were so relieved! It was so exciting to see the HB. Of course we are not out of ...

Just getting back in town so trying to catch up to the weekend posts...

silverangel - Thanks for you post. It is reassuring to know that you also only saw the sacs and your technician said this was normal as you went in essentially on day before me. Looks we are on the exact same schedule as I am ...

Silverangel - Congrats on the twins, that is so amazing and I know you guys must be thrilled. When you did the U/S were you able to see the yolk sac or just the gestational sacs. How far along are you? The nausea hit me exactly at 6 weeks. I have lost 4 pounds this week because I haven't been able ...

Hi ladies. Thanks for all the well wishes. I had a really hard time in the beginning but I am trying not to think about things too much. Whatever is going to happen has already been determined it's just a matter of me finding out either way. Say a prayer for me if you have a minute. I go for my ...

Well we went for the first ultrasound today and saw an empty sac. I was so shocked. At the very end we were able to see the fetal pole. So does that mean the sac is not empty? I am so confused and worried right now. I was okay with not seeing a HB but to have an empty sac is a different story. My RE ...

Fetal pole and no yolk sac? IVF Nurse/Ghost help?

I went for my first u/s today at exactly 6 weeks. For the longest time we saw an empty gestational sac. Right when we were going to finish up we saw the fetal pole. The doctor says we can't tell anything for sure yet and to come back in a week. I thought we would at least see the yolk sac. Can you ...

Babyloves - my husband and I haven't told anyone about the IVF. It was really hard going through everything alone but I am a private person and people can be so judgmental about things and I didn't want any added stress. We did tell both of our parents that we were pregnant though. We won't tell ...
