I have been stalking this group with every fiber of my being that I could join it - I had my first beta today & it came back at 824 so here I am!!!

A few shout outs - Mellow - I am so so so happy! All this month I was praying to have a miracle for myself & then I started to pray for all you wonderful ladies to have one too & I can't believe how happy & elated I am to hear that you have not one but TWO wonderful strong heartbeats! I can't wait to hear what your DH husband says imagine his shock!

Rio - Again I am so happy your little bean is so healthy and snuggling in for a while

Anna - Congratulations on your US that is AWESOME!!!!!!

AFM - I am cautiously optimistic about our little bean or beans - we have quite a ride for the past couple of years but feel that someone has a plan for us & hopefully this is it. Merry Christmas ladies enjoy your family this weekend

Welcome Katie Thank you for your kind words. And, great beta!

My DH was driving home and called me yesterday afternoon to see if I saw the RE. Of course he asked way to many questions and I ended up having to tell him, because for one I didn't want to lie to him, and two, didn't want to put that kind of torture on him. Anyway, I told him there was a change from Monday's scan, after he asked...I said we have a heartbeat today, he was silent for a moment and said, "Wow, I told you things could turn around" Then I said we had two heartbeats...He let out a little chuckle and then said it sent shivers up and down his spine...and then he just kept saying "Really" over and over. I was so happy to be able to give him some good news, verses what we had been dealing with. I spent the entire afternoon bleeding and cramping, pretty badly...it's so scary and we don't know what is really going on, but it's not in my hands and I have faith that whatever the outcome, we will be okay. I am of course praying for my hearts desires, and the best news was to see those tiny little hearts beating away like they should be. Monday can't come soon enough, after having bleeding like yesterday it's worrisome...but due to these holidays, Monday will have to do. Today I am so very thankful.

Merry Christmas, Friends.

Katie - welcome and great to see you here!

Mellow - I will pray for the best outcome for you, your beans and DH! I kind of learned like you said that it is in God's hands and sometimes he has his own plan, so praying for the best outcome usually works pretty well!!! I am so happy for you but please take it super easy!

Amanda - hope you are having a good time with the in-laws!

FOR THIS YEAR:


FOR NEXT YEAR WE WILL ALL BE:

I hope everyone has a wonderful Holiday Season no matter which Holiday you celebrate! Much love and thanks for all of your support and kindness through this difficult journey, may we all be blessed with healthy babies in 2011!!!

I want to wish each of you a very Happy, Healthy and Blessed New Year!

Mellow: I am so happy for you, what a wonderful miracle! Hang in there, it sounds like you have an SCH, mine went undetected at first. I've had mine since 11/23 off and on with only 2 days of no bleeding since then. I find that when I over do it it's always worse, so please rest as much as possible. At times I pass huge clots(tmi). When I have the big clots and lots of bleeding my doctor sees me and does an u/s each time, just to make sure the placenta hasn't seperated from the uterus. I'm always so scared but my 2 little ones always have strong heartbeats, thank god! I just bought a hand held doppler and can now listen at home and make sure they're okay, especially since I'm still bleeding. I will continue to pray for you and your little miracles.

[DandMe]

I can sum up my life by saying this. My life is a freaking roller coaster of emotions that are all over the place.

More bleeding and cramping last night, feeling extremely sick and hungry every five minutes...and not being able to sleep because my stomach hurts so bad...that is how I went to bed last night.

RE got me in, just to check and see what is going on. You are not going to believe this...because I certainly don't.

Still full of clots, but a little surprise was there to see. A heartbeat, and then, Oh Wait, another one. I am in shock, and have been crying all morning. I don't know how these things happen to me. We are not out of the woods, this bleeding is a big problem, but we have hope that soaring so high right now, I don't even know what to do with myself. The RE is cautious, yet hopeful...which is how I will remain. The little heartbeats were 141 and 138. I haven't told my DH yet, he is driving home from Vegas with my son and some friends right now and thought I would wait to tell him when he gets home.

If I can dry up these tears, I may just be able to get something done today...after I eat something since my tummy is screaming at me. We go forward cautiously hopeful, and Thank God for a couple little Christmas miracles. Things are still worrisome, but we will wait and see what happens as these next several days go by. I go back in on Monday afternoon to take another look at things. Thank you all so much for your support, it means a lot to me.

I stopped our family movie to share your news with my husband and his parents..... we were all so touched and happy for you...... I am stunned and overwhelmed with happiness for you both. What amazing news!!!!!! Keep your PMA!

[DandMe]

Merry Christmas to us all.. how our lives have changed.....

BIg hugs and smiles to everyone and their little ones!

[annashope]

Merry Christmas Girls and again thank you to each of you for your warmth understanding and support. I am so blessed to have you in my life!!!

[baby_blu73]

This board is the best example of Christmas miracles I've ever had the pleasure of witnessing, let alone being a part of! Hope everyone is enjoying their holiday and pregnancy with family and good friends.

My sweet furbabies in the snowstorm!!!! I just thought it was too cute and wanted to share...we are in the middle of a blizzard!! how is everyone else today?

[mellow4]

Hey Anna! Nice snowstorm and cute puppies. I am laying around on the couch today, the sun is shining and it's 60 degrees today. I'm trying to lay low, since every time I am up doing something I start bleeding again. Still have gunk, but just not red gunk..TMI It's so gross. We go tomorrow afternoon to take another look.

How is everyone else doing?

[karenthescorpio]

Annashope- your fur babies are so adorable! I live inNJ so we have the blizzard too! But since I have been sick with a cold since Thursday, I am locked inside! Having cold while pregnant is terrible. Can only take Tylenol. Which is fine. I just keep blowing my nose, drinking OJ, and resting!

Mellow- your story is so touching. Not that I would wish this anticipation on you!!!! You are a tough cookie. Know you will be in my prayers tonight. I can't wait to see your post tomorrow. Miracles do happen all the time! Why not you!!!! Xoxoxo

I've been MIA for days bc I have been sick! I can't believe it. Since Thursday I have been I'll with a bad cold. Runny nose, sore throat and low fever. Fortunately I saw my new OB on Thursday when I started to feel bad. She said rest, Tylenol and fluids. DH has been so sweet and taking care of me. Got released from RE or so I thought until they said they can't release me while taking PIO shots. So they want me to Just stop them for two days and then come do a pro level check. I said no. I'm sick and my OB wants me on it until at least 10 weeks. So they are like well we can't release you. I said I'm not in custody. I'm going to an OB so you don't have to worry about my progesterone.

So that's my world right now. Fever went away but I still feel yucky. Since we have a blizzard I'm just resting. Big hug to all. Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday. We have so much to cherish!

Mellow - prayers for a great US tomorrow and the end of your worries!
