Hi
I'm finally here. So far I took 6 HPT tests. All positive. I was suppose to go for BETA tommorow but read if you get a positive you can go in earlier. So I went this am. Its only 1 day sooner. I have my cell phone connected to my hip. Waiting is so hard. I thought the 2ww was bad these last 3 hours are going to be a killer :roll: . I did a FET 3day on 5/11 yes Mothers Day. So I took the HPT's starting on 5/20 :shock: Wow what a shock. They say I am 4 weeks. Question for anyone??When you went for your first sono did you go to your IVF Dr. to get it done? Just curious. Thanks & God bless all those little ones & of course the parents :D :D

Trish - Congrats on your positive!! I went to my RE for my first u/s and i am going again to RE for my second u/s on Wednesday. I believe he will then transfer me to my regular OB/GYN..

I am hoping he will cause I am tired of driving 2 hrs everytime just for 15min appt - don't get me wrong I would love to see the baby but when you do driving so much it kinda sucks..

Again congratulations!!

Hi Everyone,
Ready for this 11dt FET my BETA was a 142 YEAH!! :shock: :shock: I kind of thought so but didn't want to get my hopes up. I was just concerned by Prog was only a 15 :cry: but they said that was ok (not sure what that means) especially when they put me on PIO YIKES. I'm already on caplets 4X a day. I go back the 30th to check BETA then Monday DH & I get to go to the u/s. I think thats when this will all hit. DH is so cute already kissing my belly. I tell ya one thing I am so tired at night my DH actually vacuums around me & I don't even wake up. Could be the AP too. But thanks so much for all of your prayers they worked.

Sameera-2 hour drive does suck man oh man but I bet you have a smile on the whole way there :D

Courtney-Thanks for your posting & best of luck to you :D

Are any of you swollen yet? I think its the prog & not the baby but then again they did put 3 in hahahaha :D :D :D

DNT - Congrats on a great beta! Don't worry about the progesterone numbers will increase :)

Well, I was swollen to the point that I looked like I am 6months pregnant but not anymore! all my swelling is gone and I have a lil belly :)

Don't worry about swelling it will go down it takes sweet ole time!!

Chelly - I hope your u/s went great - can't wait to hear your good news!!

As for me my u/s went great i am 9wks pregnant - I cannot believe it but i am glad :)

We saw two heartbeats and my RE said it looks like we are having Twins - However, second baby is little smaller than the other baby and he said it could be because they both implanted on different times and developing differently..

but he did say there is a 50% chance that it may or may not make it and that it's too early to tell. But in couple weeks will no definitively for sure if we are having twins!!

Well, i am just so happy and thrilled - but at the same time I am worried about the second one because we did see the heartbeat and i do want both the babies to be healthy - it would hurt to lose.. but I am not gonna think negative and stay positive :)

Hey girls!

Trish, 142 is a strong beta!!! So happy for you!! Now onto the 2ww to u/s...the waiting never ends!!!!

Sameera, CONGRATULATIONS! I am sure your second peanut will catch up in two weeks.

Chelly, Congrats to you too!! I saw your post on the other thread. That is incredible...and you are one day ahead of me!!!

I am 6weeks and 6days today, we saw TWO little heartbeats today! Both measured 7w1d, and heartbeats were 142 and 124, both of which she said are in normal range. We are thrilled!!!!
