IM-

I am so happy for you. I know it is nerve racking but remember to enjoy your pregnacy, you have waited long enough. Five weeks does seem early for a heart beat. My appointment is in three weeks which will make me 7 weeks so hoping/praying for a heart beat or two. I also work for the schools and am back to work tomorrow. :cry:

Nicki hun,

I'm so sorry for yours and DH's sad news....
No words can take away the sorrow and i was praying this would be the one, I know in my heart you will have your dream come true and you will be holding your own beautiful baby in your arms, in the not too distant future....I wish you all the luck in the future, with whichever way you decide to go.

lm - That is wonderful news, i had a feeling it would be more than one with those numbers, try not to worry as the Dr said it was too early to see the one and you did, he/she is just an early bloomer.
I live in Centerville just outside Dayton, hubby works at Wright Pat Air Force Base.
We go to the Easton Center in Columbus, it's nice there....

Sam - I still reckon you got more than one in there, hey a boy and girl, that would be magical............

Nneal - thanks for the tip, but we got our hearts set on Dreams, it looks so romantic, plus all the reviews are very very good everybody raves about it. It is all inclusive and they say the waiters do the same thing, serve you on the beach and all.....

Lis - how you holding up, another day nearer.....

Wannababy - Not long now and your be in your 2ww, good luck hun sending you loads of sticky babydust......

Amy - How you feeling hun, hope it's a little better, i know it takes time.
((((((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))))))))))

Pat - How you doing, anything to tell?? were all here routing for you and praying hard............

I hope everyone else is doing well...
Take Care

I go for my scan on Sept 7th. Is it weird that I do not get any blood test from my Beta test to the scan?

Hello all. Looks like alot has gone on in the past week since I've been here.

Nicki, sorry to hear about your BFN today.

Sorry to see all of the other losses as well.

Great to see so many BFP's for August though!!

Just to update why I have not been around. Honestly, everytime I open a thread that I think will be fine, I see that someone m/c. It terrifies me. So for my sanity and to enjoy what is supposed to be a great experience, I've been staying away.

I am currently 5w6d pregnant and I had my 1st scan yesterday, which also scared me. I just received a CNN new update through my e-mail regarding ultrasound damaging developing brains in mice. Since at 5w6d my baby's brain is developing, I was a little nervous. BUT... I saw the heartbeat and then all of the nervousness melted away. I didn't expect to see a heartbeat so early. I was so enthralled with the image on the screen that I forgot to ask her what the fetal heart rate was. The ultrasound tech also ruled out an ectopic, which was another fear of mine.

So all in all, things seem to be good for me. It seems as if your docs wait until at least 7 weeks in order to do your scans. Is it weird that mine did it at 5w5d?

I'm soooo happy for all of you who succeeded in August - and am grieving for those who didn't :( . I hope you are surrounded with love to see you through these tough times.

I just joined this group - I have my beta on the 20th - am extremely nervous (I posted a long message separately with all the details).

I'm hoping that I'll be surrounded by positive vibes here to see me through these nerve-wrecking 84 hrs.

Hello all! The first of the month was going so well...my heart to all of you who didn't get the BFP or who suffered a loss this month. I can't imagine.
I am hanging in there. The 2ww isn't SO bad...finally got up today and returned to work (Day 5). It was exhausting laying around at home but as soon as I walked in to work, I immediately wished I stayed home for a few more days.
I feel nautious. I'm sure it is entirely mental but I have been on the verge for a bit yesterday morning and all day today. It's probably an allergic reaction to work.
9 days to go...my DD prays for a BFP everyday (and so do we all...)

Warm wishes to you all,
Dione

Hello Everyone,

I have been reading the message board about 20 times a day. It helps me not feel so alone.

My HCG test is tomorrow August 18th. The 3 HPT I took the past week all say positive so I am feeling good about tomorrow.

Myriah

:oops: Ignore my ticker I probably shouldn't have added to after my blood test, but I got so excited I couldn't help myself.

My doctor warned me that the Crinone progesterone medication I am on can cause normal bleeding. Are you using this med? Do you have pain?
