Hi Everyone!

I have read all of your posts for months now and have been reluctant to post myself. It is so nice to see that others are in a similar situation as myself. Here is a little bit about me: I have been married to DH for just over 7 years now. We have a DS who just turned 3 last weekend (our little ...

Bleeding after U/S?

I had a really bad feeling that I would bleed after my u/s today and of course it happened. Fortunately, it stopped. Has this happened to anyone else and do you know why it happens?

I figured that if I took a HPT the reults would be skewed no matter what. Therefore, I decided to wait until blood test. I understand how anxious you are; it is difficult not to be. I just listened to my body and I new what the results were going to be (so did my hubby). Of course I kept doubting ...

Your numbers sound really good. Think positively! I have my U/S on the 10th and it is driving us nuts. We can't wait, although we are a bit nervous. Good luck and let us know what the results are :D

OHSS

I'm trying to figure out if I have OHSS. Within a couple of days after my eggs were implanted, I noticed my stomach increasing in size. I'm just under 6 weeks and I look as if I'm between 2-3 months pregnant. My feet and hands are normal and I can't tell that I have gained weight any where else. I ...

Progesterone Shot in Thigh Anyone?

I have been having difficulty with my progesterone shot in hips. I am running out of space and it is very painful. After I injected myself (with hubbies help of course) yesterday some of the meds squirted right out . It was the strangest thing...I called the nurse on call and she told us that we ...

Thank you for all of your positive comments. They certainly make me feel much better about my situation. My husband and I are incredibly excited about this pregnancy and we are not going to let this ignorant individual ruin that in any way. We have never second guessed our decision and believe that ...

moral issues

Has anybody had any issues with people you work with that think you should not be pregnant due to invitro? I am a teacher and another teacher at my school gave me a guilt trip on Monday in regards to being pregnant since we did not conceive in Gods way. This is actually a woman that I have never ...

HCG # ?

Hi, I'm pretty new to all of this and am curious about the HCG numbers the nurse told me. I took my first pregnancy test on 2/20 and the HCG number was 468 and then I took my second pregnancy test on 2/22 and the HCG number was 1,086. Does anyone know what the numbers mean?
