tburks, r u bleeding heaving or just spotting? Try to stay positive lay down and put your legs up. Hopefully they are right and everything will be ok. I will pray for you.
Tburks- From what I read spotting is common in the first trimester. Just try to lay down and relax tonight, and see what the doctor says tomorrow. I am sure everything is fine. Was it dark or bright red? I know one had dark blood and everything was fine since it was old blood.

I wish I had the right words for you. You’ve been so supportive and loving to all of us and I just know you’ll make a great Mom. It’s so hard to accept that with all this technology and money they still can’t get it right, especially when our dreams feels so easily achievable by others. You’ll be in my thoughts. Hopefully, you’ll log on to give us some good late breaking news from the ultrasound. Keep DH close and let him be the rock.

I’m so happy for you. Another hurdle down.

90% is 90% and much better chances than many of us faced to get this far. Try not to obsess (impossible I know) and keep up the hope.

So sorry. Give yourselves time to grieve without pressure and the right path will come to you. Wishing you love.

You must be so scared. But, if the drs. aren’t worried, you shouldn’t be either. They don’t seem to hold back on potentially difficult news. Try to relax as much as possible and it’ll be all the sweeter when you get the reassurance.

Sorry I have not posted in a few days. My HCG levels shot up from 111 to 815 within four days. I will go for the first ultrasound on 3/11...very excited.
You all continue to be in my thoughts and prayers. Thank you for staying so active on this discussion board.
Hello ladies! Let me first say that some of you are so great at following up with each persons specific situation. I get so confused and have a hard time keeping up with myself some days.. haha.
So I took another test last night and it was only slightly positive and to me seemed lighter than the day before.. so of course I started worrying and still in the back of my mind thinking it could still be the HCG.... so this morning when I was trying to have my husband validate my concerns and pulled my last 2 POAS out he threatened to hide them from me. I know I have been totally out of control... and I have never been like this. My friend told me we might need to have an intervention! I am just scared of getting my hopes up. I had to have a D & C on 12/30 so I am still nervous based on that. I HAD to go back to the store this morning on my way to work to get another box.... I snuck in the bathroom took yet another one.. I figured if this one is positive it really is since my test is tomorrow and all the HCG should be gone .... and it was a BFP... I bought a different brand this time and it was very +++. I am still in shock and sort of in denial. Then it will be all the HCGs rising and U/S appointments to worry about.
tburks...I am also having spotting (mainly brownish) but ast night had some bright red blood. Was VERY worried so I went and had another BETA done today and they just called to say the number is fine. She suggested it could still be implantation bleeding, my uterus stretching or perhaps a sign of impending miscarriage. Apparently nothing we can do....she said walking increases the blood flow which is a good thing so not to stop that. I have a scan next Wednesday so I'll feel better (or worse) after seeing that.
Since most of you here seem to be ahead of me in your cycle and after reading some of your experiences, I was especially worried about going in for my 1st OB US today. After waiting for my RE for a while, we finally saw one gestational sac, yolk and heart beat of 113! It was such a relief to be able to see the flickering of the heart beat and my RE said that everything is where it is suppose to be. He told me that they want to see anything above 100. I'm assuming that the baby is growing at the right rate because I forgot to ask him if the size coincides with the week that I am in? I am due back next week for another US and if all goes well, we graduate to see my regular OB. I am to continue with my medications--is that what most of you are doing? I wonder when they'll wean you off of it? Thinking of everyone...hope nothing but more good news from everyone!
I'm new posting too, my story, I'm 32 with one ovary (left) and husband with low count, we tried for 10 year naturally, 3 pregnancies loss...Since we don't have health insurance, i searched clinics in Mexico City and I found one clinic with a main clinic in NY and good reputation. My doctor was very gentile and careful with my ovary, I got 5 eggs and only 3 embryos..( i guess was a good count for only one ovary) On the 01/03 I got transfered only 2, my doctor saw my endometrium with 13.5 mm thick so he wanted to lower the risk of 3 implants...Today was my 5th day on bed resting like my Dr. said. I'm in progesterone and my next appointment is on the 12th...
oh my g,, yup we are at the stage now where we did EC on 4/3 and took 8 eggs from 10 follicles, my left ovary was a little high to reach.. it was much easier process than i thought though!! drugs were great lol. out of 8, 6 were mature, and 4 fertilised normally. we were rapt to get a phone call today (day2) to say all 4 are dividing and doin their thing!!! yahooo!! so transfer tomorrow, please say a prayer, we will transfer two embryos and freeze 2, all goin well.. much love and luck to everyone, breathe, visualise, affirm!!
got two embryos transferred yesterday, they were both grade 4 so the e.b.ologist said that was textbook..! yay ! we have two other embryos which are slightly less good but we will know tomorrow if they are suitable for freezing or no...the transfer was all good but the doctor took his time (i thought i was going to go insane from the discomfort of a full bladder...) trying to get it right - apparently my cervix is very long?! anyway they were transplanted !! and then i had acupuncture...feeling quite flat at the minit, lots of tension in the household - (we have teenagers too which never helps), i flooded out the unit so we are sleeping upstairs with the kids never mind its a waiting game now.... hows everyone else doin...??
Friday was my first official HCG (14 days past transfer) and it was 835 and they did another today (Monday) and it was 3079... WOW. I know that is very high. I am really thinking both might have stuck... what do you think? I am sort of nervous about it being 2 but I have to wait and see what the U/S shows next week.
