Just got back to my desk after being asleep for over an hour and then a power cut (this you will have to come - not the power cut ) and dashed on to read your news.............
Congratulations and well done. I know you must be worried and at the same time feel for all those who did not get a positive but having been in the negative camp myself we are still pleased when someone gets a positive and being in the positive myself hurry up and come over the other side
Look after yourself and dare I say it (Gems and Bina!!!) fire away with the questions!
Love

ttc 9 years. 38 yrs old, dh 8 hrs younger!First IVF in Aug 2002 and had ectopic.2nd IVF neg.3rd FET and negative.4th FET and positive but sadly lost our little boy at 20 weeks.5th FET and Alice Isobel and Emily Charlotte born 5th Aug 2004!
My first question is....how PG am I!!??my last AF started on 30 March and et was 24 April.
Guidance helpful....am a wee bit concerned that IF I count from last Af - then I'm 5 weeks and shouldnt my HCG levels be higher than 152.
The HYSTERIA has set in already. Probably a stupid question and totally realise how lucky I am to be in the position the ask it Thanks
Gem -thank so much for your message. VERY VERY mad all this.....

It is all mad you are right - ignore the AFs as buggered around with stimming etc. They only use it in my case or others on a natural FET but even then still like to use the ET as their base line and count back 2 weeks from ET and then forward 40! So your date is counted two weeks back from ET and then you can start working forward. You are around 4 weeks pg or just over and don't start doing a GEms Not sure I can cope with you both flapping over your HCG - your HCG level by the way is very good so don't worry about that one. Leave Gems to fret over that (even though she does not need to in the least as hers is rising as it should) and find something else that hasn't been taken to worry about if you need to

hihi caz, just going to say the same as tracey, try not to worry about
hcg levels, as i said to gem lots of clinics do not look at levels,
when i did my home test i phoned the clinic and was told a date
to come in for my first scan (although i did get them to do a blood test
just to confirm, but they do not look at hcg levels).
Yes u are pregnant and im so pleased for you, with regard to dates
i was told to work back 2wks from ec, but i know some clinics
work back from et, so yes u are about 4 and a bit wks, how exciting!!!!
have a lovely evening tonight alisonnx
what great new's, i'm so pleased for you and really hope you enjoy your pg. so glad you have made it to the other side it gives me hope
well done and take care

ttc for almost 4 years, diagnosed as unexplained. Just about to begin treatment when we were lucky enough to concieve naturally. Our beautiful baby boy, Daniel, was born on 27 Sept 2003. Now expecting again, baby due 22 Aug 2005.
There have been a few positives from the ACB's hopefully they'll keep coming and let's hope us May cycle buddies can continue with the good trend as well.
OMG!!!! I was looking for a post from you all day but must have been checking the wrong spot. I am so happy for you!!!!
I was in a bit of a bad mood but your news has actually just snapped me out of it. You certainly deserve this. Congratulations to both you and your DH! Try not to start worrying about things going wrong and just focus on the positive. You've had to do enough worrying over the last few weeks!
Now, if you could just share the secret of your success with the rest of us on the 2 ww!
Shellie, Staci, Sue, Jen, Jaye - thankyou so much.
