March 2011 Miracle Babies!

[DandMe]

Well although I'm a bit nervous because it's early, I know there's a lot of newly expecting moms who are in the same boat so I thought I'd start a nice landing pad for us over on the 'miracle' side of the boards.

I am having my third beta on Monday and praying for a healthy number! So far so it's been going well and we are very hopeful!

Sonya!

Hey girl, I have been thinking about you! I am hoping for a great big number tomorrow!! I am anxiously awaiting to hear good news from you! I am so glad to see you on this side again. You should stop in the winter cycle thread and say hi to your old cycle buddies. I know you have been missed.

Much love and baby dust to you!

Glad you started this thead. I'm still very nervous that someting could happen at any time since it's still so early but I'm more excited to have gotten this far. Grow baby grow.

Well I'm glad we are attracting a few new moms.... I'm nervous too - my betas aren't very high but my doctor seems unconcerned and says they are within limits! Ugh! I'm also excited about this. I've been told FETs are slower starters than fresh cycles so here's hoping....

Hi all - I'm 5 weeks 5 days today and feeling sick to my tummy. Had my 2nd beta # 10,078 yesterday . I think I would be due in the beginning of March. I'm still very nervous it is sooo early . I saw a yolk sac on US yesterday. RE said next week we will see the heart beat. I just wish I could fast forward and go into the second trimester, I think then maybe I'll feel better. How is everyone else doing ?

Jenice I'd love to have your betas - mine are miserably low but I am still holding onto hope and my doctor seems to be comfortable with things. I had another beta today and am a tad nervous about it. Things better start happening a little faster!

Jenice - I think we are on the same schedule. I'm also 5 weeks 5 days today. I'm due March 3rd. My RE won't see me for a U/S until I'm 7 weeks. I'm so anxious to see if everything is alright.

Daisymay- That is soooo cool, we are exactly @ the same time I'm going next week for ultrasound so I hope to see a little blinking light on US. My DD is also a March baby. I did Er 6/11 and ET 6/14. My DD is jumping all over the family room dancing, she is sooo free

Dandme - My first beta my last cycle was 88 then 49 I thought everything was good cause my first # was good and then it went down. That definitely sucked So, as long as they go up the way they should. Your #'s do seem to be doing a good job going up. I must say I was happy with my #'s, but I continue to be nervous about this pregnancy. I hope the next ultrasound helps. We must try to enjoy being pregnant, we all worked so hard @ it.

This is so neat. My ER and ET were the same days too. Next Friday the 16th, is when I finally get to go in for an U/S. I haven't had any u/s so far. Have you seen how many your carrying yet? Also, what were your beta numbers?

[DandMe]

Jenice; I'm happy my betas seem to be recovering.... when is your due date? I know most of us are nervous, so this will be a gentle little group until we get 'settled in' to our new found preggo status.

Question for the girls... do you secretly want twins? Do you prefer a girl or a boy? What are looking forward to the most?

Daisy - My first beta was 14dp3dt # 324. Then I just had my 2nd beta on 7/6 10,078. I think that was 22dp3dt. RE felt the first one was a good #, and waited a week for a second beta. That was very nerve racking to me, since the last cycle my 2nd beta went down. I thought most RE test every couple of days. I did have an US and it showed one yolk sac. I was worried, since we transferred 3 embryos. Triplets would scare me, twins would have been cute. To be honest I suffer from hypertension already ever since my DD pregnancy. That pregnancy I had borderline pre-eclampsia. I never fully lost all the weight, which makes your BP go up. Since I had 5 attempts of IVF, I guess because of the meds I had gained 40 lbs in one year I had started working out and dieted for about 4 months lost near 20 lbs. I remember I weighed this weight after giving birth to my DD, YIKES I just will keep an eye on my BP this pregnancy. My DR had doubled my meds this past year. I hope I can lose all this weight some day. To think once upon a time I wore a size 5, those were the days !!!!!

Dand me - My due date is March 3rd I believe. With my DD my H2O broke so I went 6 days earlier.I guess I could go in February. I had a C-section with my DD. So I think I might have another, small pelvis DD was stuck. Unless the next baby weighs less than 7 lbs, which I would doubt. I had a really loooong labor and the DR held off on the epidural, so I was in full labor with no meds for awhile I wouldn't mind another C-section , but I've had 5 surgeries not sure another would b e good for me. I might not have much of a choice. As long as the baby was healthy that is all that matters Congrats on you #'s going up

Dandme -BTW, I would love another DD. I have had the name picked out for the last 3 years. I also would love a boy, my DH soooo wants a son. We have DS name picked out also. I am definitely finding out this time the sex. Only 14 more weeks to go to find the sex out. I know I'm getting ahead of myself already. Either way we will be happy.

[DandMe]

I think most days I really want a boy, since my husband has no kids. I already have two adult sons, age 20 and 22, and loved raising boys. They are both great young men and I think they'd just love to have a baby brother to spoil and take fishing and teach to do boy things. And then I think about a daughter and I can see how fun that would be, to teach her all the things I love and to have that bond that only mothers and daughters have.

Are you going to share your name? LOL If we have a boy we are seriously considering "cash". Yeah, cheesy but we were joking about it and realized we actually liked the name. I also love the name "gavin".. and if it's a girl... "aven".

[jenice]

Dandme- If I had another girl it would be Gabriella, and a boy Giovanni (John). Now all we need is a baby I would looove another girl, to dress up I absolutely loved it. My DH so wants a son and so do I. I wish we could have both but I'm only having one. If we had more insurance $$$ I would definitely try for a third. I'm getting WAY ahead of myself.
