That is great! I loved ER because I was finally able to get those follicles out that were making me so very uncomfortable. My RE also uses general anesthesia also, so I went to sleep and when I woke up it was all over!

Keep us updated!

TammyS--

I am so sorry to hear of your m/c. It is a horrible heart-breaking feeling to get that news. I am so sorry, I hope you and DH can take some time to heal with Zach and hold him tight and kiss him. We are truly blesssed for the ones we have, why does this happen to people that just want it so badly? Zach is lucky to have such a wonderful mom. TIme does heal.

well I am 5dp5dt and I got a super faint + on my HPT tonight. I wasn't really expecting it at all, but hey I'll take it! Now it is 8 more weeks of worrying. After 2 miscarriages, I am cautiously optomistic.

[natakia1108]

Woohoo Lauren1171!!! That is awesome!!! I knew it was just too early and it would be positive. I just had a gut feeling about it. lol Sooo happy for you!

Natakia...Good for you! I know that I could never do it. I have no patience at all when it comes to stuff like this. lol Good luck to you on Friday...I'm sending prayers!

Emma...Please stop worrying...almost everyone here has the same cramping/twinges/bloating as you do....it is normal. I just ignore it. For some it is pregnancy and for others it is the meds...either way...it is sooo normal. You just have to get used to it.

Franca...69 is great for your first beta! Mine was 29...and everything is going along just wonderful! When is your next beta? Cant wait to see it climb and to see you smiling and relaxed. Congrats again!!!

Angela...I found out that most clinics dont check your progesterone level. I asked for one from the Cleveland Clinic (where I go)...they did, but asked me why?! I told them cause my 2ww buddy gets them done. lol Then when it came back only as a 46 compared to your big numbers...I asked them why yours is higher...and what does that mean for me. They said it means absolutely nothing...which is why they dont do them. They said 46 is in the normal range and yours is in the higher range, but fine/normal also. Then they said that they know that most clinics dont do them as a rule...because if you are doing the pio or supplements...then the levels are fine.

Nicliz...Good luck today...keep us posted. Grow Follies Grow!!!

Helene...Good job on selling off some of your stuff. We sold $800 worth of crap at a yard sale...when pregnant with Zach...in 2 days. Who would've thought we had enough junk to make that much. lol We bought Zach's nursery furniture with the money...it was awesome!!

Lauren...Your beta is 5/3. Your beta is pretty early compared to most of us...I wouldnt poas till Sunday, if you are planning on it. Hoping and praying for you!

Amanda...hope all is going well for you! When is your beta?

Mkd...How are you doing? Stay strong!

Tameka...Good luck Friday!!! Are you going to poas? Try to stay stress-free during this trying time. My grandparents raised me when I lost my parents when in highschool...until they too passed away within a year of my mom...so I can sympathize with you. So glad to hear that she is responding to you!

Everyone else...sending lots of hugs and prayers out to all of you...that all of our dreams come true!

AFM...It's been a rough week here. Zach had surgery Tuesday as you know. I came down with strep throat on Tues/Wed and DH came down with it on Thursday. Took Zach to the pediatrician for a Sat morning appt...just had a feeling...and his ear and throat were red...so she decided to treat him with antibiotics, too. So we were all quarantined this week...and we missed our friends wedding. My husband introduced the bride/groom.

We started house hunting again...and are going to see a few houses tomorrow...even though I really think that we are going to wait till next Feb/Mar to move. I just happened to see a few new houses on the list that my real estate agent sends me by email every week...and now I want to see them...cause I'd hate to miss out on "the house". Ya know? lol

We're going on vacation next Sunday...just booked it today. We cant pass up this deal. From Ohio to Myrtle Beach they are offering $9.99 each way on select dates in May/June. It's a new service for them and a huge promotional gimmick. So for the 3 of us (Zach on our laps)...our total roundtrip including taxes for nonstop flights for all of us was $73.76!!! No kidding! I am now going to cancel and reschedule my first OB appt. maybe for this Friday instead. I need to call them here in a bit. I am a little bit worried about going away, being so newly pregnant and all. However, I did just do this 2 yrs ago...and what is the difference if I'm sitting around home or laying on the beach? lol Besides my brothers family is going too...and they even pulled their kids out of school for it (I dont believe in that, but I'm not the parents). They figure they will never have another chance with 4 kids to take them on a plane...so it's now or never. My 14 yr old niece and sister in law...will be very helpful with Zach...and my DH is the type to do it all anyhow. Lucky me. I'm not lifting or carrying right now either for the most part.

So even though I am almost 42 and considered high risk...I should be okay...right?! The flight is only 1 hr and 40 minutes long...so I'll get up and stretch my legs, too. I have another beta today...and will find out on Friday...how many I have in there. I really feel that there is only 1...and think I will be scared to death to travel...if there is more than 1. Any tips that I havent thought of yet?

Hi Tammy,

House hunting...how fun. Take the trip and have a wonderful time. Hey, I totally see why your B-in-L is pulling the kids out...the years almost over anyway Have a fabolous time...all should be fine!!

[natakia1108]

It's over. Beta number last Monday 524. Beta number today 515. I lost the baby.

Tammy,

I'm so very sorry. I know how much this hurts. I'm so hurt for you. But remember the little blessing you have running around...just pick him up & hold him tight, it'll make you feel so much better. Please go on your trip and try to relax and enjoy your family as best you can. I'll say a prayer for you tonight.

Natakia
