I'm pretty sure your gonna have to ask to hear it, I heard mine at 7 and 9 weeks. They may have only put doppler to it cuz I wasn't seeing the heart beat even after they said they did. I know I seen it for a bit on 6 week ultrasound. hearing it made me really believe it was there. :wink:

neffi- I was in the same boat, younger and male factor, so we thought our chances were pretty good. I started with 11 follies, only retrieved 9 eggs, only 8 eggs were good, 5 fertilized and then on day 3 for transfer I had four "good" ones. They were all 8 celled. They put two back in and I am now pregnant with 1 bean. At each step I kept getting disappointed because i was thinking the same way as you...I was like, "I don't understand, everything is right, no complications, why low numbers?" I would keep getting down, and finally, all I could do was accept the fact that if it was meant to be, then it would be. And it was meant to be...so don't give up hope. Good luck at transfer, rest and update us when you can. We will be praying and sending sticky vibes your way.

Neffi211: Wishing you the best today in your transfer!!!

CT_Michelle: Thanks for your prayers. You described what I was feeling exactly (if we are pregnant with 1 or 2 babies) then we would need the $750 to go towards paying for diapers and daycare.

Washingtonda: Can't wait to hear your results today!!!

TammyS: Thinking of you and hoping for a great retrieval!

Schel67: Thanks for the positive thoughts!

Question for everyone: When is the first u/s scheduled for once you find out you are pregnant? Is it at 6 weeks? Also, how do you calculate how far you are along? Do you add 2 weeks to your egg retrieval date?

Andnichole: According to the pregnancy calculator on this site...it seems that they add 2 weeks to your ER date...so yes you are right.
First ultrasound? I think it is alot earlier than 6 weeks ....but I dont know. Someone else can answer this one.

Amy: Hopefully we are still here ...if not you could always jump into another group. I am sure I will still be here for you...I love this site. Feb 25th will be here before you know it! Thanks for updating our list.

Neffi: How are you doing? Let us know when you can. We are thinking of you!
