Wow...I was getting a little nervous because there wasnt a lot of activity on the page yesterday. I'm glad to see lots of messages this morning. I am even more exited to read about every ones great news. Congrats to you all.
When I first started the 2WW I thought that is was going to be dreadful. Well, the 2WW went by fast and now waiting for a phone call today feels like years has pasted. Only a couple more hours to go...I hope.
I am proud to report back that I did not use a HPT. I was going to but I thought that it would add so much more stress to the situation.
Anyway, Jharris good luck tomorrow and keep us posted. We'll be routing for you!

Hi Girls. Happy Friday.
Adriana had her follow up US this morning and here are the results. The size of the baby went from 5.1 millimeters 10 days ago to 15.2 today! The heartbeat is also at 151 bpm! The baby is 8 weeks today and these #'s look really good as far as I can tell.
The clinic released her into her regular doctor's care going forward. They hugged her and kissed her. It was really wonderful. We also brought them in a box of Italian pastry to thank them for all their help.
Let me tell you, successful or not, this group of doctors and nurses are exceptional. They are professional and human. They care about their patients and you can see it in everything they do. If anyone in Connecticut needs a referral, send them to The Center For Advanced Reproductive Services in Hartford. They're have a Farmington office as well, but Hartford is just super.
Anyway, I hope you're all doing well and I hope you all have a relaxing weekend.
Jim

cookingirl- congratulations!!! wow, another BFP for the board!!! 566 is an awesome number and I am sure it will only continue to go up....watch out for the morning sickness!! 
jim- congratulations on the baby growth...mine was 10.2mm at 7w1d and the heartbeat was amazing to see. You are so lucky yall get to go to your regular OB...we don't get released until 12 weeks! Sounds like yall had a great group of people helping you at your clinic. My clinic isn't quite that 'personal' but I have to say, they got me my baby so I am happy! As far as dental injections go....I typically use a 30 gauge so its less painful. Yea, I stopped feeling bad about giving injections a long time ago, and besides, I put myself through worse pain with the PIO everyday!
jharris- I am sending you baby dust through the internet! Praying for your BFP!
zippy- yeah, the PIO are starting to get real old...but everytime I start to complain, I just look at my baby's picture and it makes it worth it. I would do anything for my little bean! I think the wait for the sono is worse than the inital 2ww.
God Bless!

Hi All!! Sorry I haven't posted on this board for awhile but wanted to let those still on that I got a BFP today!!! BETA in at 155. For some reason they did the test today, day 12, so I think that is a strong number. DH and I are so elated we don't even know what to do with ourselves.
Congrats to cookinggirl too!!
Okay JHarris I am crossing everything that can be crossed for you tomorrow. Hope you can keep yourself busy between the test and the call. Go shopping, have lunch, do something pampering. I'll be checking in.

YEAAAAH Rubylee !! What a great BFP ! So happy for you....it is just fantastic.
Cookinggirl...another amazing beta...this board is just jumping ! congrats to you...there must be more than one in there with such high number !
Dri-Jim. How awesome that the little peanut is growing so well. It must be such an amazing moment to hear that heartbeat. I would be in tears...tears of joy, tears of awe, tears of gratefulness. Enjoy every moment.
Chelly : you too got to hear your little one's heartbeat...you're doing great ! I'm really happy .
JHarris: I'm crossing my fingers for you tomorrow and I hope to see another BFP. I'll be looking for your post. I really enjoy seeing the BFPs on the board, I just feel happiness for all of you girls that get preggo...it is so awesome.
I haven't been too much on the computer because it was working so poorly. As of tonight it seems to have been fixed and I'll be able to post a little more. We get to rely so much on computers especially when we communicate so much on this board..it's like our lifeline !
I hope all of the others are doing great ....
Best of luck and more sticky baby dust...
