Hey Jen!!!!, I am not sure were should I be, my due date is June 29, 08, so I am kind of late for June and early for July..hummmmmmmmmm :roll:
But I guess I am closer to you guys so I'll stick here :wink: .
I am 6w1d today, I have my first scan this thursday and I am sooooooo freaked out about it you can't imagine!!!. Mainly because my first BFP in October of last year it was on my first scan that I realized everything was wrong and I was going to m/c so you can imagine how the scan freaks me out!!!!!!!!!. I really hope I can see a HB.
About your beta, let me tell you I think it was way too early for a higher beta, I have seen even betas of 5 or so progress to normal pregnancies, so you never know. It is so stressfull that you have to wait 2 days to know your results, but anyway, let's keep the PMA, I am sure it will double!!!!! :wink:

Hi Jenn - congratulations - I was so happy to hear about your BFP! I think we have " spoken" before on other threads. I am so glad you started this thread - I couldn't bring myself to do it. Hi Vicky too. :D

My due date is 2 july. I am really struggling now with negative thoughts. I have the first scan on Sat when I will be 6 weeks 2 days. I had a meltdown last night with DH and said I couldn't cope with more waiting and I thought I was losing all my symptons. I think it's all in my head - I don't know what are pregnancy symptons and what are anxiety symptons any more!

Looking forward to sharing this journey with you and helping each other thrive.

I'm on the progesterone shots. Luckily I haven't had any morning sickness. I don't think I will get it. It really helps if you eat a few small meals a day vs. eating 3 meals.

Good luck to everyone!!!!!!

Oooooooooooo Angie, I sooooo understand what you are saying!!!!!. Actually this morning I had a breakdown and told DH exactly what you told yours, that I couldn't wait anymore and that it's killing me not to have any symptoms!!. It is so nerve wrecking!!!!! But I guess lots of women feel the same and they end up with normal pregnancies, so I guess it must be normal.... :roll:

JenB.....tomorrow is your beta, right?, we will be eagerly waiting to see how it skyrocketed!! :wink: . I am so jealous that you are feeling sick (I know, you never thought someone would have ever told you that :lol: ), but I want to feel sick too, so at least I know things are going the right direction, crazy huh!

Shantell......only 2 more sleeps and our agony will end, we'll finally be able to see our little beanies!!!!!!

Jen, BTW, loved your list!! :wink:

My boobs are SOOOO sore. I have heartburn and I am very fatigued by 6:00 p.m.! I normally feel sick after I eat but not before. It is hard for me to eat very much. After I eat I feel like I swallowed a basketball...I just feel very full. I am also very bloated. The only symptom that I don't have is morning sickness. I don't think I will have that though. I don't get nauseous very easy.

I am freaking out a little.

Vicky - you are so young. If you don't mind me asking is yours unexplained infertility?

Shantell....I pretty much have those same symptoms, except the sore bb's. But the fullness and sickness after eating and all that. About your question, we have male factor, my DH had varicocele so that affected his sperm numbers. There were no other apparent reasons for infertility....How old are you and what made you choose IVF? (if you don't mind either.... :roll: )

Hi! I am 38 years old. I had a miscarriage about 4 years ago and haven't been able to get pregnant since (unexplained infertility). This is my 2nd IVF. I'm sure my age has a lot to do with it. They also think my tubes may be messed up because I had an etopic pregnancy my last pregnancy (that was my miscarriage).

The heartburn drives me nuts!!!!! I can't even drink a glass of water without feeling it!

Good luck tomorrow!!!!
