Jessica,
I am so happy to see you on here like everyone else.
Please take very good care of yourself and make sure the doctors keep a good eye on you- do you think you will go in for a cerclage this time?
I will be watching out for your news.
Hugs and Love,

How are all the mums-to-be doing?

I am finally getting some energy back (although I could sleep all day :D ) and I can eat other things besides watercrackers!

Are you guys telling friends? We already told our family....I couldn't keep my mother in suspense and my dad is so happy! But I have also told some friends...a select few. Are you all waiting until week 12?

Tracii,

I have told some family - and some friends but it has been more situational - Like when somebody offers you a glass of wine and you turn it down - it suddenly turns into 20 questions!!!!

Hi everyone. Some of you might remember me from the General Forum. Anyway - first of all I want to congratulate all of you on your BFPs!! I know it is no easy feat to get to this point.

I got my very first BFP, ever, last Thursday and I still can't believe it. I was hesitant to join this thread because I don't want to jinx anything. When the doctor called on 4/13, day of my BFP, my HCG level was at 109. I was exactly 4 weeks. Today I had another blood test and my HCG was 957. They said this all looks good. It made me feel confident enough to go ahead and post on this thread. I am very positive - but cautious at the same time, as I am sure you can all understand. I have another blood test this Weds and I think my 1st scan will be May 10 or 11, but i am not sure yet.

I had two grade 1 blastocysts put back on 4/4 so I am not sure if I am having one or two babies - but will be thrilled either way!!

I look forward to experiencing this with all of you.

I feel like I am in a dream - it seems like it isn't really happening to me! :)

Lisa,

In this forum under Profile you will see a section where you can set up a signature....After you have created your ticker copy and past the bbCode into your signature under profile... (you only need to copy from the [img]to%20the[/img]

Ok - thanks! I got it to work finally. Looks like you and I have due dates within a week of each other! Let's hear it for the Christmas babies!!

To answer your previous question - I am from central Ohio. I am going to check out babycenter.com right now.

I still think someone needs to pinch me! Good luck with your blood test!

I know exactly what you mean!!!! Yup plenty of christmas babies coming!! Babycenter is awesome, you should also register on the following websites:

www.pampers.com
www.familybeginnings.com
www.infamil.com

For starters....the infamil is awesome they will actually send you formula close to your due date and about $60 in coupons for formula, there are also tons of sweepstakes to enter for free diapers, shopping sprees, etc....I figure hey I got nothing to lose!!!

Hi Jessica! I am doing great. Still riding on my BFP high - have been in an unbelievably good mood :D

I had another HCG/Progesterone blood draw this morning. I am waiting on the phone call to get #'s and to find out if I can stop the prog. shots and switch to the suppositories. Kind of scares me - seems most of the girls who use suppositories have spotting and that would just freak me out!

Also - should get the exact date of my 1st scan today. I wish this darn phone would ring already!!

We are always waiting, waiting, waiting,,,,,, lol! I know it's worth it.

So how are you feeling??
