dcdiva: My heart goes out to you, I can only imagine how you feel. The RE said it may still be early, so hold on to that. Everyones pregnancy is different, just like the different betas we all get.

My u/s is next Tuesday and I feel like I'm in the 2ww all over again. I know this next week will difficult for you, but take care of yourself. You are in my thoughts.

Hi Girls!
My DH and I went in for our ultrasound today and we saw one beautiful little baby's heartbeat. It took me awhile to see the little booger, but he/she was there pumping away!!!! I am so thankful ---so, so thankful for this truly amazing blessing. Even the doctor was saying how amazing science is. It's nice that he still enjoys what he does! We are free to make an appt. for an ob/gyn!!!

Congratulations Babyloves, sweetmomi, elizabeth and kim - I'm so happy that your family's will be growing!

DCdiva - I'll be thinking about you hoping that at your next appt. your little baby will show himself to you.

hope everyone else who is waiting for their ultrasound is hanging in there and resting.

Anyone else having insomnia??? it's driving me crazy!!!!
Talk to you all soon!

don't be scared Dcdiva. Anytime 6 weeks or prior it's hard to know what you will see.

Our US was Monday and we were 5 weeks 1 day. We saw the outer sac (black circle) and a small white line/fleck which they said is the developing yolk sac and embie. Hope I said that right. But anyway, there was not very much to see at all.

You will be fine!!!!

dcdiva - when do you go in again? i think it will be ok. My dr was really cautious about the scheduling of us - since development takes a while - she really prefers to do us at like 7 weeks. We wnet much earlier cause i was having an issue so i got a sneak peak :-)

antoak - congrats!! i wake up at 4am everyday!!! And my mood swings are insane!!!!

dcdiva - You are in my thoughts...I hope you get to see more real soon. I will be saying prayers for you and your dh.

A big thank you to eveyone for being so supportive. It has helped me though a rough day, and I am at least cautiously optomistic today. I can't expain how much hearing your positive thoughts has helped. I will have more answers tomorrow.

Way to go for those of you with great betas, triplets!!! (so awesome) and heartbeats. Thinking of all of you!!

Sending lots of love.

dcdiva - Im sorry to hear about your u/s. Its my nightmare too. I had blighted ovum last cycle and I know that feeling and Im still having that fear too. I even ask Ghost whether blighted ovum can occur twice and unfortunately he said yes. I think may be its too early to see the yolk in 6 weeks. I really hope to see a good development in your next u/s.

Hi DCDiva,
I am so sorry to read your news. My heart dropped when I read your words. I am praying that your little one was just a bit shy and that you will see him/her at your next u/s. I'm sure it will be agony waiting for the next test. So, I wish you lots of hope, faith and strength to get you through until then. Thinking of you!!

Antoak: Congrats on officially being prego!! That's wonderful and I am so happy for you both!

Not much going on on my end. We have our second u/s on Monday, so we are just being patient and talking to our little one.

Hope everyone is doing well!

Hi everyone, Here is a quick update. I made and error on my first beta, it was 35.8, so it was lower than I thought. I am not sure if I misheard him or what. The good news is that my 2nd beta is 87 so it more than doubled, so needless to say I am feeling better. :) Hope evryone is doing well. It is hard to be real confident so early in the game when you are aware of so many things that can happen in these early stages, but I am trying to change my attitude so that I can fully enjoy this pregnancy. :)

I am so happy for you and your husband! I am surprised the are letting you go to an obgyn after 1 sono - I guess they will do that for me too. Well, I have my sono on the 26th - I am so excited/anxious

How old is the baby today? THX

Emfossum - Yeah Yeah Yeah!!! Praise The Lord!!! :D So happy and excited for you. Ok now you can relax abit, but still you need to be careful. Don't overstress yourself and try not to do heavy works like lifting heavy things. Leave those works to your DH :wink: Your job is to eat and rest well. Are you going to have another beta test? and when is your u/s?

Hi ladies. Thanks for all the well wishes. I had a really hard time in the beginning but I am trying not to think about things too much. Whatever is going to happen has already been determined it's just a matter of me finding out either way. Say a prayer for me if you have a minute. I go for my second U/S on Tuesday.

Glad to hear that everyone is progressing nicely.
