Myriah -- Your numbers look great. Please try to put your mind at rest.. I know, personally, that it is not an easy thing to do. i am so concerned about my own numbers. I know that your numbers are strong so please rest and take it easy

When is your ultrasound?

Mine is scheduled for Sept 5th. They are not planning to do any more blood tests. I wish they did.. it would make me feel a lot better.

We are all right around each other. My ultra sound is Sept 6th. I really really would not worry about your numbers. I have remained very calm (don't know how but just want to enjoy my pregnancy) and time is flying by much more so than when I was a wreck through the 2WW period. My theory is if something happens, I could not contol it anyway so I might as well enjoy that it is smooth right now.

I did have to go in for BW today to check my progeterone level. When they called me with my results I did ask about my HCG numbers. THey told me they did not screen for that but if my progestorone levels would have dropped than they would be suspecios that something was not right. So ladies, my point is, if you have been having to get that tested and the docts feel it is okay than you all should be in a good space. I did not know that info until today.

Let's keep each other company and calm!!! We deserve it. Conception was hard lets enjoy the pregnancy.

Wow we really are on the same schedule. My U/S is September 5th.

I it is hard to tell by what I post, but I have calmed down a lot from last week. I think I have started to come to terms with the fact that things are out of my control.

I will have my fingers and toes crossed for all of us next week. It would be so wonderful for everyone to see strong heartbeats.

I am glad you are feeling better. I do not know what it is like to go through this twice so I understand your concern. I just want this to be a happy experience for you as well as myself. I can't wait for you to share your great results from the ultrasound!!

Love,

I am getting excited. I feel pretty positive as I have EVERY pregnancy syptom known to man. I am convincing myself this is all good signs. I sometimes have the rare panic attack that there will be no heart beat. I am more focusing on the excitiment of finding out if it is one or two. I will be overjoyed either way.

I am 7 weeks one day today. How about you guys? When is all of your utra sounds? How fun to go through this with others!!!!

Good luck to both of you!!! I will be thinking about you.

My u/s is tomorrow at 4 EST. I am very excited. I just want to know what's going on in there, even if it is bad. 99% of the stomach pains I had have gone away over the past 10 days which as eased my mind about it being ectopic.

I seem to have some pregnancy symptoms also. I get tired very easily, get dizzy, and feel nauseated by bad smells. Not to mention.... I have gained 2 pounds and my stomach is sticking out. I tried on some maternity cloths yesterday, it was so much fun. I may buy something if tomorrow turns out good.

I am looking forward to hearing from you guys over the next 2 days.

These posts are so wonderful to read.

I have been having a lot of symptoms too -- sever dizziness and nausea each time I smell.. well anything!

I have also gained a few pounds but I think that is due to the fact that I am eating to make the nausea bearable.

Good luck all and I look forward to reading all the posts soon.

How about others? Any scans this week>?

Myriah- Too funny about the maternity clothes. I can not fit into anything but been a freak about not buying ANYTHING untilafter my ultrasound. Let me tell you what I have going on....size 36 E boobs, growing and soar(I am a 34 C naturally), stomach sticking out, pee every hour and 4 times during the night, I even got my linea line from my pervic bone to my belly button, I threw up today and feel sick all the time, I nap two hours a day and still go to sleep by 8:30 ( I am a night owl). That may be it.

This is all why my husband thinks I have twins in me. I am not sure as I can not tell if it is from the medications or from all the past meds. I take 3 suposotories (sp?) a day which are strong. We shall see, I am excited for either but do feel there is something Definetly live and well living inside of me.

Good luck tomorrow and post ASAP so I can feel your relief along with you.

MB- Where are you at? I can not remember?

I live in North Carolina.

I dreamt about the U/S all night last night. In my dreams there was a heartbeat. Hopefully that means something....

I don't have quite as many symptoms. My boobs only hurt a little and I do not have a dark line on my tummy.

How funny, I had a dream abut the U/S as well. I actually dreamt I slept through the whole thing and no one wanted to wake me. In my dream my husband did not ask the nurse ANY questions and she did not give any information. So I never knew the results.

When I woke, I was so mad at my DH for not asking questions I barely talked to him this morning. He had to remind me it was only a dream.

I live in Denver. MB, where are you in your pregnancy?
