Hi Ladies

Can you add me to the BFP list!!! We are so excited and in shock to be honest as I feel fine. Went for Beta or Bust yesterday and came in at 106 (not super high) but my RE said anything above 50 was good (12dp3dt), going back tomorrow and next Friday praying numbers go up. I ran home last night to POAS since in 2 1/2 years of trying, 4 IUI's, I have never seen it say YES, it was so great. I really don't have any symptoms so far and today funny enough my bloating went down and I feel great. This was our first IVF and I was convinced it was a bust, still on cloud 9.

Good luck to everyone in the 2ww and never give up hope!

Milagros315

Congrats @danjan2019!

I'm finally going back for my second beta tomorrow! Everything looked good on Monday so we're just praying that everything is doubling properly. If it looks good we'll get to schedule our first ultrasound. Today I have to go see my regular doctor because all of the antibiotics and OHSS meds messed up my stomach and my RE isn't sure what to do about it. Hopefully it gets better soon.

cls78

My PIO shots start Monday. Any tips? I am kind of dreading them, but I am so excited for my FET!! Can't wait for next Sat!!!

cls78

@danjan2019‌ Congrats!

cls78

Lady2010

@danjan2019‌ - Congrats!!! @Milagros315‌ - FX for doubling. @cls78‌ - good luck Sat! AFM - still in 2ww. Still beta or bust. Good luck Ladies!

Hi all,

Well as you may have read in my previous post last check in, we lost baby a. Went to the ER because I was bleeding really heavy and passing a lot of clots. This was on Saturday. Baby b still looked great on Sunday and had a heart rate of 150. Today we had our follow up ultrasound and baby b is still doing great! Measuring exactly on track and strong heart beat of 176!! Thank god!! We were so worried if the baby was going to fight through this or not! We have a little fighter in there! They said there is still bleeding in there from where the other sac was so I was told I may continue to spot and to take it easy to let it heal and absorb. I go back next Thursday for hopefully the last ultrasound before getting discharged! Please continuing with your thoughts and prayers! It has helped a lot! Thanks!

Milagros315

I'm so glad to hear that baby B is looking good @Irishlove16! T&Ps for you!

Hugs to those that need them and fx for those waiting! Congrats to all bfp!

****warning u/s update*****

I'm not sure if many ppl saw my last update but last night I had some brown spotting that scared me but it stopped and I ended up staying home from work to take it easy I was thankful my nursing manager was so understanding. I had my first u/s today and I'm 5wks today, so I want sure how much id be able to see, but we saw two gest sacs both with yolk sacs and fetal poles! I'm so thrilled, this preg has already progressed farther than my first which was a blighted ovum. I was so scared that would happen again but I'm so thankful that these babies are growing strong and ahead of schedule by a few days! :-) not sure when my next u/s will be but I'll keep updating, I'm not quite ready to move on to another board yet :-)

Had our first ultrasound today. Everything is measuring right on track and had a heartbeat of 119. Thrilled and over the moon. I am so appreciative of modern medicine and this forum. Truly amazing and feeling blessed. Best wishes to all!!

Beta 2 came in today, and it was at 2816! Now I wait for beta 3 and u/s next week.

@cls78 the best thing I can tell you with the PIO shots is to warm the syringe in your hand, and put a heating pad on the injection site before the alcohol wipe and injection. The reason being that since it's oil, if you ice the spot, it will not distribute well, making it even more painful. GL!!

@danjan2019‌ @sparkles2040, @diamante1181, congrats! 

@Milagros315‌, hope you are feeling better. I didn't have full on OHSS but was close, and after I got a +HPT, the bloating and pressure returned for me for several days. I can only imagine with full OHSS. 

 @irishlove16, so sorry for the loss of Baby A but thrilled for you that Baby B is doing well. 

 @MKateG‌, what a relief! Glad you were able to see those two beautiful sights!

AFM, I am trying to just relax and not be panicked all the time.  I got a great second beta this week (after a LONG week after my first one), and we have our ultrasound next Wednesday.  Not ready to transition to PAIF or another board yet, because I am afraid of jinxing it.  Silly. 

Milagros315

Thanks @Rebecca'sMama! Luckily, I don't think I ever developed OHSS - it was just the prevention meds that are causing the problems. I can't imagine having OHSS on top of this!

Congrats on the great second beta! I'm anxiously waiting for my results now
