Sorry I havent post....... I am so happy to hearr all of you guys stories it so encouraging and by the end of next week when more of us get ultrasounds we will have alot more to talk about. OK , so after your first 2 consecutive betas my clinic doesnt see you again until 6 week ultrasoun! AS IF! ANd if anyone has read my story in the IVF post board, you guys know y i am so nervous! ( Long story short, Im 27, i was told my eggs are crappy!) So on 7dp6dt i was 50 11dp6dt 321 , on my 3rd beta 19dp6dt I was 3500 and I had a little yolk sack.... I do not go back until Feb 29th, I will be 6w4d then... I am going absolutley NUTS, as i know most of you are.... My doc said my sac measured at 5w1 day at 5mm and that was perfect... But until i see and hear a strong heartbeat I will forever be a mess........



Anyone have the constipation issue? I havent did the DO in 5 days! my tummy looks like I am 5 months preggo! WTF, I eat oatmeal, I guess i will have to gobble a galss of prune juice daily.. Boy i miss my colonics( doc said NO while im prego)..

CONGRADS LADY WE DID IT........... now we have a whole set of other worries to worry about, does it ever end? Think of us about 2 months ago on the other IVF board going crazy abouts meds and the 2ww, now this! LOL

Kildean: SO happy for you :)

Mbre: SOmeone was saying their doc ordered a persription prenatal vitamin with a stool softener in it. Tryy that. My clinic is the same 2 betas and an u/s. I am not worried though. I cant wait wait to see my bean and then I graduate to my obgyn.

Cinci: My peeing has decreased as well! Dont worry hun. Everything I have read says that the symptoms often come and go.

Kelly: Like I said to Cinci - dont worry you wont always have the same symtoms. As far as betas - often betas do not reflect multiples. You can have high betas b/c the embryo implanted early. So dont even worry about it. Though ppl like to think they mean something, they cant be used as a definitive asnwer.

gecko: sorry about the cramping. I am afraid to excercise. I am thinking about taking up yoga though.

Hoekey: Happens to us all :evil:

Acap: Cant wait to hear the results!!!

Weezie: Girl you had me laughin so hard. You should print up the side effects of Progesterone in men or something and leave it on the table for when he gets home!! Oh wait today you are going to Houston right??? Good luck hun.

Well I got sleep last night!!! Finally!! Feel good :) Not much new. Still have not told anyone but the one friend. It is hard not to, but dh is not talking to his parents and we aren't ready to tell them, and we dont want it to get to them some how... I am thinking Easter Sunday will be a nice time to tell family. Or might wait until the end of April. Since no one knew we were doing IVF we dont have to tell right away.

I am starting to get some sharp low cramps, different than before. Anyone experience that? No blood, just annoying sharp cramps. My doggie kinda headbutted me in the tummy today but it wasn't that hard, now I am paranoid! :roll: Are we going to be like this the whole time? :shock: :shock: :wink: I am going home for an hour to lie down, glad I am 5 min from work!

Weezie- I can't wait for your u/s news! I am glad you said you were going to take your computer! Hope you had a safe drive and glad your mom is going too. The story with DH was hilarious!
Mia-it is hard not to tell! Glad you got a good night's sleep.
Kildean- great betas - I can't wait to hear about your u/s!!
Mbre- you will see a heartbeat!!! It is hard not to worry!
Cinci- my boobs aren't as sore either, don't worry I am sure things come and go!
Kelly - there are singletons with high betas also, don't worry until your u/s, still praying for your grandma!
gecko - your cramps sharp or dull? My belly is still very big all around, I can't wait for the swelling to go down and have a bump!
Hoekey- don't worry! we feel the love!
Acapulco - can't wait for u/s results!
wish- let us know- hope you feel better!

Got to run and go lie down! Healthy baby dust!!!

Weezie hope your trip goes well the weather has been gross here. Be careful and all will go smooth.

I got to hear my beans HB today. IT was 124 BPM. It kinda scard me when she said 120-180 was normal. Im only four up from that. But she said its b/c im only like 6 1/2 weeks. I said if something was wrong it wont go up next week. She said it would prob be slower now if something was wrong. So i was releaved. It was aweseme. I go back tuesday and DH is coming so he can hear. The good thing about my fluid is ive had TONs of US and so I have pics.

Hello Everyone:

I'm really bummed out today. My first u/s was today and although the sac measure that of a 6 week 4 day pregnancy there was NO HEARTBEAT.
I was so dissapointed. I was really expecting more.

The staff is really good of course, they try to lift my spirits and it's just to emotional. Has anyone gotten a heartbeat after 6 weeks???

My next u/s 2/28

Thanks for listening :(

Wish I have heard its not always until after 6 weeks. When will you go back? Im sorry about this news but try and wait it out. Is your beta still good and rising?

One ? Have any of you been okayed to have sex? I asked today and she said NO. I was like ok I havn't but just wondering. I felt like a kid in trouble at school so I didn't ask when I will be able to.

Katie: My RE cleared the day of my first beta! Every clinic is different. We don't do it too often cuz there is cramping afterwards though.

Wish: Oh I am so osrry hun I bet you are worried spitless noe - one week!! is that the soonest they can get you in?? Surely they should be able to get you in sooner!! I don't really kow when you are supposed to see it - did they seem worried??? Praying for you! It is one worry after another isn't it??

Katie: That sounds so great! I bet your mom was thrilled!

Ok I am light headed cuz all I have had to eat was a pb and j sandwich aroung 11:30 - so I need to eat. BTW I am planning the nursery and I am designing a wall unit that I hope will function as lots of shelves and a changing table - I might scan the plans in a lil later. I need to go price the materials at Home depot. :) Basically there will be different size cubby holes for toys and baskets ... then on the top in the middle there will be space to change the baby. We'll see if it works... :)

Mia - Ikea has a wall of cubes and some convertible changing tables, did you check them out? I can't wait to go get our nursery ready! Very cool idea you had!
MBRE- glad I am not the only one! I am still swollen so sometimes it is even hard to distinguish stomach cramps from uterine cramps :oops:
Katie- Our little bean's HB was 127 and he said it was great so please don't worry! He was 6w2d! No sex for us! But I have to warn you, I had 3 o's in my sleep and holly cow did it hurt when my uterus contracted, hurt for like 10 min. TO be honest, I am a little scared of sex right now since the pain :oops: but to make things worse, I am also horny :oops:
Wish- try not to worry, I heard some people don't see it until later than 7weeks!
weezie- I am on pins and needles!

Hey ladies, can't do persnals right now because the weather is bad and my moms driving isn't the best :shock:
Well, our prayers were answered. 2 very distinct gestational sacs BOTH IN THE UTERUS!!!! :D and RE was very suprised to see the yolk sacs already forming. My little over- achievers (already the proud mom). I have 1 large hemorrhagic cyst, but he said that is not uncommon. And several large follies still lurking around. That's where all my pain is coming from. Hopefully when I go back Tuesday, we will see the heartbeats. I will be 6wks.

Rio- I know you said you had pains, but that is exactly where mine were. Low pains and when he moved the u/s probe around he could tell exactly when it hurt b/c he was pushing on the ovaries. Its good to be cautious. If you feel better calling the RE and explaining the pain to him, do it. Only you know your body.

Thanks to everyone for all your kind words and prayers. It worked. I'll catch up later.
~peace
