i got my second HCG test yesterday and dr said it was good at 819. my previous was 442 on the 18th. i am scheduled for my first ultrasound on mon July 2nd. I dont know if i can take the wait :) i'll be six weeks and 3 days at that point. i've been feeling a little crampy starting yesterday so i'm nervous of course. i've heard that there is a decreased risk of miscarriage once you've seen the heartbeats. i hope all goes well.
and good luck to all of you as well.

wanttodiscuss- thank you for your previous post about the cramping. while i wasnt having that symptom at the time, i have been for the last few days. like AF is coming. i'm glad all is well for you and baby. it also gives me hope :) i also have OHSS (very swollen belly and such) so i'm hoping the cramping is the OHSS resolving. optomistic

Eristrawberry-
I'm still have some of the AF cramping. The doctor did say it was completely normal. The only reason they had me come in is that I was having some consistant pain in the same place on the left hand side which sounds like it could be an ectopic pregnancy. Luckily just mild OHSS with a swollen ovary. Your HCG numbers sound great. I can't wait to hear how your scan goes.

Sweety - Welcome and double congrats on the twins!!

Hi Ladies,
Congratulations to all.... I'm so excited and happy to be part of this thread. I am due on Feb. 19. We got our BFP on our first FET on 6/13. We trasferred 2 day-6 blasts on 6/4.
First HCG 9dp6dt - 300
Second HCG 11dp6dt - 692
Third HCG 15dp6dt - 5,525 - during this week I was having some mild abdominal and low back cramping I called my nurse and asked if cramping is normal she told me that it's normal during the early pregnancy. But I told her that I want to have another blood test just to make sure. Blood test came back with HCG level of 5,525 so everything is fine.

My first u/s is this week 6/27 (Wednesday) I'm excited and a little nervous. I hope and pray everything is fine.

I hope everyone is doing well..and CONGRATULATIONS....again...God bless...

Hey girls~

Mind if I join? I am due Feb. 9, it took me a while to post on this side. I think I was afraid I'd jinx it! I have u/s and bloodwork tomorrow morning. Hopefully we will see a heartbeat!

Today and yesterday I have had horrible morning sickness. Does anyone have a remedy I could try?

Congratulations to everyone here!
Jenn

Mind if I join in. I just found out I was pregnant. My fist HCG is 187, which is 11days post transfer. Is this ok? This is my first IVF with ICSI. I had a pregnancy one year ago but I miscarried at 15wks. I am happy that I am pregnant again but a bit nervous.

Thanks

Tajma- looks great, good luck with everything

i had my last beta test (the 2nd one) last wednesday. so now i am awaiting the first ultrasound scheduled for mon July 2. but this wait is driving me insane. i finally broke down and left a message for my dr office. i don think i can hold out for another week without checking in somehow. i am hoping to get another blood test, or maybe even an early ultrasound. :oops: i just need another sign that its real and things are on track. i've never been so neurotic in all my life.

we'll see
