RN2005: I totally understand how you are feeling as I was a very active advanced step/ muscle strength teacher for years and gave it all up when we decided to begin this fertility process. It seems like all I do now is sit on the couch. I have lost a ton of lean muscle mass and have put on a bunch ...

Hey Kim,

I totally think you should go ahead with it. I had my first u/s at 5 weeks and 6 days and we saw the hb! It was amazing feeling!! As long as you understand that you may not see it, I think you would be prepared if you didn't and not worry too much. Good luck!!

Elisabeth

Hi DCDiva,
I am so sorry to read your news. My heart dropped when I read your words. I am praying that your little one was just a bit shy and that you will see him/her at your next u/s. I'm sure it will be agony waiting for the next test. So, I wish you lots of hope, faith and strength to get you ...

Sweetmommi: Big Congrats on the triplets! That is amazing! I think it is only natural to feel a bit shocked with that number! But, it is three times the love and I'm sure once the shock goes down that you would not have it any other way!! Can you remind me on how many you transferred?? I can't ...

Hey DCDiva: That would be crazy if we both ended up at the same hospital on the same day delivering! Although I live in MD and work in DC, I will most probably end up delivering at Fairfax b/c my OB-GYN is in VA. I adore her and couldn't imagine going to anyone else! I think I have sent her a ton of ...

Hi ladies,

So I just got my 3rd beta in and it is 2895. It didn't quite double, but it did rise enough that they said they were not concerned about the number. I guess it still makes me feel cautious esp b/c I've felt a bit less pregnant than last week. I'm not quite as tired and my boobs don't ...
