MSM2B: My intralipids is a less expensive variation of IVIG. WIth three fresh cycles not working we looked at immunological issues and Natural Killer cells. My numbers were a little out of range so we did the treatment. Since my BFP, I will go about once a month for the frist four months or so to get an I-V drip of intralipids into my blood to help.

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know how long we have to take the progesterone suppositories for? I just rescheduled my appointment for an U/S to see the HB for the 30th which would put me at 8wk mark. Should I continue to use them until that point? When do they usually say to stop?

Thanks so much!

Hi ladies! I'm happy to be joining this group:) I hope everybody is doing well.

London: I'm sorry to hear about the bleeding...that sure is scary! I had a little bleeding last week and I was freaking out! Luckily, it pretty much went away.

For those of you having twins, how early was your ultrasound that showed the 2 sacs?

For those of you that have heard a heartbeat, when exactly did you hear it? I have my first U/S this Friday and I will be 5w1d, so I'm guessing that is way to early to hear a heartbeat (but of course part of me hopes).

How do you get the cute icon that shows how many weeks and days you are pregnant? I am not super computer savvy and need a little help to figure that out...any guidance would be much appreciated!

Medstudentmom2b: Did you ever find anything out about how long to take the progesterone suppositories? I am taking those and will be very happy to be done with them!

Talk to you all soon!

Hi Alexis,

Welcome to the board! We are having so much fun here.
I can't answer your questions about the U/S since im having my first one in two weeks (when im 8wk pregnant). The wait is killing me but im hopeful that everything will be ok.

I havent gotten an answer yet about the progesterone suppositories but I will continue to take mine every day until I see the doc in two weeks. I think most people take them for a minimum of 8-10 wks (maybe even more) so I have a while to go.

You can get the ticker at lillypie.com. There are other websites that you can also use. The instructions are pretty self explanatory but you will need to copy and paste the code they give you into your signature beginning and ending with [img]...[/img].

Good luck!

hello ladies,

Anyone having morning sickness yet? This morning I got into the car and all of a sudden felt really sick and nauseas. No vomiting though but Im wondering if this is the beginning.

We saw the little ones (specks) at 5 weeks 2 days. the little sacs as they called them. Tomorrow we go again for another u/s and hope to see their little hearts beating . I read though that it just looks like a pulsating dot but I don't care, they will be OUR little one's puslating dots!

As for the supps.. well we are doing the PIO injections and I read on another board that they usually last until 10 weeks. I figure at least 4 more weeks of my hips/butt being sore!

As for morning sickness... I can't say mine is exactly morning but yes, there are certain things that turn my stomach and others that I feel I could eat continuously. LOL Fried chicken (which I NEVER eat... was my best friend for two weeks... now it is anything Italian) The strange and sad thing is, chocolate doesn't interest me much right now. I also have not drank coffee in about 4 weeks, it just turns my stomach. (decaf even)

alexis They saw 3 gestational sacs at 4wks and 5days. I have to wait for my official u/s which is the 29th to see if all three made it.

[acornmom]

sorry girls had to play with the ticker again. LOL
I found this one at i-am-pregnant.com
mine is a picture of twins and every 4 days another piece of the puzzle comes off to show more of the twins! I love it!

Congrats acornmom! So happy the babies are doing great!!! After reading your post in the other thread, I just rescheduled my U/S AGAIN... back to tomorrow. I figure that even if I dont see the HB, at least I will be able to see one or two sacs which will be good. I dont think I can wait until 8wk. It's driving me crazy!

Eve, so glad you joined us! I was wondering what happened to you! So exciting about the twins! Wow, I cant believe it. My betas are almost identical to yours so we'll see if I will be blessed with twins. When is your next U/S?

[Cocoa]

Congrats Acornmom... I am happy to hear it! I left you a message on Bubbles thread!

Carrying twins is so very special... We saw ours at 5w6d with little "pulsating dots" and they are now 14 months old!!! If any twin moms-to-be have questions feel free to ask!
