You girls sure have moved up a notch! Me, I am a little afraid of moving into this thread. Everytime I use the restroom, feel a cramp, feel normal and not tired, I worry about the bady. I have had several m/c and they were all between 8 and 12 weeks. I am constantly worried. I have been feeling very tired and nausea since Saturday. I find this strange since my other pregnancies were easy. I had energy and felt wonderful. I guess my age is what has changed. The last time I was pregnant, I was 21. Now I am 28 and I feel like a cow. I guess my previous pregnancies have stretched me out because I already do not fit in anything.

I have another BW today and a follow-up consultation with my RE. I think we are all in shock over this one. My RE calls me personally everyday to check on me. DH and I are so happy though. My littlest son (Christian) comes in every morning to "wake up the baby and give it a kiss". He insists that we got pregnant because he gave the baby kisses everyday. Who knows, maybe that was the trick because I was a wreck!

I hope you are all doing well. I will try to write again later.

Jeck- thank you so much for the cute message board....

Rachael- I also feel like you... everytime I use th restroom, feel a cramp or just don't feel normal I think it's AF arriving! It also doesn't help that I keep having very vivid dreams about it too. Hopefully my mind will be put to rest tomorrow after our scan. Today is not a good day for me.... very nauseous and dizzy today! I haven't had the urge to throw up yet (sorry if that's to much information for you girls), but I feel very weak & dizzy. Thank god I'm not feeling like this every day....

That is such a cute story about your son coming in to wake the baby up... I bet he feels like a big champ! I also love the name Christian.... it's on our baby names list!

Hope you girls all have a great day-

Tasha

It must be pretty normal for those of us that have went through so much to get pregnant continue to analyze every little twinge in our bodies! I thought after my strong BFP I would feel better and I do now I just worry about the scan. :-) I hope after the scan I can relax a bit. :-)

Cmoscar that is great your doc looks out for you so closely. :-) And that is so sweet about your little boy!

Jeck thank you so much for the nice board!!!!! ;-)


Have a GREAT Day Ladies and Babies

Well, I had my BW yesterday afternoon. I am still waiting for the results, but I am not that worried. I noticed that my BP is up and I gain 4 lbs in two and a half days! I was shocked since I have been really nauseas for that was week and I am not eating near as much as normal. Oh well, it only gets worse from here!

I hope the rest of you are feeling better.

Well, my BP is still high, but my numbers from yesterday came in on target. Our HCG is 239 and rising. My U/S is scheduled for Nov 2. We are very excited. Hope everyone is well.

Jeck - add me back to that list!

My hcg today (12 dpt) was 1400!! At 7dpt it was 250, so we're moving right along! I've got more bw on monday and then my scan will be in 3 weeks.

The OHSS persists, but my stomach has calmed down. I'm gaining about a pound a day in fluid and I have to start an injectable blood thinner tonight. I'm HUGE!!
Me=32, DH=31
First IVF attempt (drug study),
Day 5 Transfer of 2 blasts
10/16=BFP!
11/13=TWINS!

The thickening blood is a side effect of the OHSS. It has also started to effect my breathing as well, so moving around is out of the question.

I'm praying that this only lasts one more week and I am able to stay out of the hospital. I'm not sure how much more I can take. :cry:

Brit,

I had the same thing but not to your extent. Please rest and stay down and drink tons of fluid. I know that v8 juice was reccommended for me. It did the trick in a couple of days. I had 69 CC's of fluid in me and 2 days later I only had 6 CC's. I went and bought 4 half gallon jugs and drank I half gallon a day.

Good luck to you and congrats. I'm thinking you better come up with a couple names. :D

Take care,
Jackie

Good Morning Girls-

Well we had our first scan yesterday... and it's one strong happy little baby! We measured out at 6 weeks 1 day, with a due date of June 12, 2007. Our next appt. will be with our OBG/YN (the fertility clinic has dismissed me) on Oct. 31st. We got to see the heartbeat,but not hear it. It was 120 BPM... very exciting.

Hope you girls are all doing well and have a great weekend!

Thanks Jackie.

They recommended gatorade, but my stomach can't tolerate the sweetness. I'm only okay with chicken broth and ginger ale for now. I haven't tried the V8...I'm a little scared to! :cry:
