@UnicornsPlease and @msirni0 Yes, they just monitor it and I have to call if I have any bleeding. Unfortunately nothing I can do but wait . I am not in bed rest but I am on pelvic rest (no heavy lifting, no sex, no exercise) basically laying low and not doing much. That is exciting @unicornsplease seeing the baby on screen is soooo exciting.

Everyone is progressing very nicely!!!! Glad to hear some have had a chance to see their embabies for the first time!! I found the cure to my heartburn/nausea!!!! Gingerale!! I've been very steady for the past 24 hours. I did fast a little bit between Wednesday and Thursday. Not an actual fast but ate light with soup and had ginger ale. So if anyone is looking for some relief Ginger ale is pretty good.
@chicandbubbly I hope everything gets better by your next US. Thats awsome that you could see some of the limbs!! I couldnt see them in mine but the doctor was kinda going quick.
@UnicornsPlease & @msirni0 - lmao The Men try so hard to be good. We were sitting down to dinner last night and I told my husband that I was tired and after I cleaned up I was going to bed early. His response is , how are you tired? Your not doing anything. I flipped and went on a rant about the last 6 months of everything I endured and what my body is now doing. So I would be going to bed. They just do not think sometimes.
Edit: Oh and AFM, I finally have a due date of February 25th! And no more butt shots!!! But i have been graduated to suppositories and officially discharged from the clinic. I see my OB on the 25th.
@milanjayla my OB was actually the place that referred me to my RE so I will hopefully be able to get an appointment with them when the time comes. I have seen a nurse practitioner there for my regular gyno for a few years. I am wondering if she could be my OB for the baby - I hope so she's the best!

Had our first ultrasound today! Saw our little miracle shrimpy! It is the size of a grain of rice and we got to "see" the heartbeat and we got to hear it too! 117 heart beat.
I can't say how grateful I am to our team at our RE clinic. Our tech who helped schedule our surgery, our nurse, and our RE were all in the room today. I cried and hugged my RE (who I think is cute so oh la la) and the tech got teary eyed too. It was an amazing experience and I hope that things keep going well!
@mjacks16 any update? Yay @freudianmamma I'm sure that is such a relief and now you can breath a little better, congrats!!!
i think I'm going to see if RE can bump my U/S date up, I feel like everyone has had their 1st one close to 6 weeks, right? Mine has me waiting and going crazy, until about 7 and 1/2 weeks.

@freudianmamma Awww!!! I love it!!! So happy for you, that is awesome! How many weeks are you now? I cannot wait until my US on Friday.
@mr&mrs.d I had one at five weeks and the next at six weeks(this Friday). And RE told me at the last one that I will go back every week for the next four weeks (I am assuming that means until I am nine weeks). See if you can get it bumped up!!
Had my follow up ultrasound today and things are not looking good. I'm only measuring at 5w5d and I should be around 7weeks. There was a little bit of growth, but not much and my RE thinks it will be a MC. I'm going back in on Friday to double check before making a decision on next steps.
@mjacks16 I'm so sorry Hun. Take all the "me" time you need to heal. In looking at your siggy, I believe you still have another PGS normal embryo, which I know doesn't matter now, but it's nice to know there is a back up that you can try sooner then doing a whole new cycle. Thinking of you!

@UnicornsPlease no luck, they gave me the excuse that at 6 weeks they might not hear the heartbeat, so they wait for close to 8 weeks. Such crap. So I wait and worry until then.

Ugh I am sorry Mr&Mrs.D! Hang in there. The ONLY good thing about my SCH is that I have already had 3 ultrasounds with more next week (still at RE). I can't even imagine waiting that long!!! The good news is that you will likely be able to see a lot more! Baby will look more like a baby than a blob! My OB office told me that we only have like two or three ultrasounds the whole pregnancy! That is crazy to me. I don't know why but I had it in my head that you have ultrasounds all the time. Lol.

Hi ladies, just wanted to give you an update and let you know that I have not had any more growth and the mc has been confirmed. Going off meds and hopefully it will resolve itself naturally this week. Good luck to all of you and I hope to make it back to this board sooner than later!
A few questions for you all: Are you still on PIO shots/suppositories and until how long? Also, has your RE given you the green light to BD yet or not? My RE wants my to abstain until the first us so they know everything is ok. Of course we are on vacation this week so that kind of sucks lol but I will do what I need to do if necessary.

@emgem819 I'm still on endometrin (suppositories) not sure how much longer hopefully soon because they are so gross and I've already spent hundreds of dollars on them. No sex for me- since I have a bleed I am on pelvic rest.
I've had a few cravings but nothing weird yet. I have food aversions too- literally cannot stomach the idea of meat right now. Cannot buy it, cannot cook it. It's so weird because I am usually a meat lover. I don't know what to do about it since I need the protein! Eggs and Greek yogurt are still ok for me to eat. 6 weeks is when all my symptoms began I would say!

@chicandbubbly I have heard that about meat aversions when pregnant so I think it's totally normal! Maybe try peanut butter for protein? I usually like meat too but in the last few months it hasn't been very appetizing so DH is hoping one of my cravings will be meat again but not thinking it'll go that way. Sorry to hear you've been having bad nausea spells...that's no fun. Hoping that doesn't last much longer for you.

Good news: I got my US moved up to Monday, woo hoo!! Now I just need to stay busy this weekend, bc I know my mind is going to think all sorts of negative things. Anyone have anything fun planned???

@mr&mrs.D any tips on the PIO so that your behind doesn't get so sore? I'm having trouble with that! So happy to hear your US got moved up. Is this your first US? Exciting!
AFM we are headed to the Outer Banks, NC for vacation/Family Reunion thing but currently in a hotel in Delaware with DH and his stepson. Stepson knows nothing about the pregnancy yet so we have to sneak into bathroom and do the PIO shot after he's sleeping and tomorrow morning I have an appt. at Quest Diagnostics lab to get blood drawn for my beta #2 (I'm going to say I am going to fill up the tank before our trip). Ugh! I'm nervous and I don't enjoy sneaking around but we will tell him eventually once we know for sure everything's ok. Hoping for good numbers. But after that I'm looking forward to relaxing on the beach this week and catching up with family I haven't seen in awhile! Anyone else have fun plans this week?

@emgem819 yes it will be my 1st us, so I'm super anxious! as for any PIO tips, unfortunately no, I have been on them forever and there are good nights and bad nights. I don't blame my body for being pissed that I continue to stick a needle in the same area over and over again. I just keep reminding myself it will end at some point and is all worth it. your lil getaway sounds awesome, good luck at 2nd beta!!!

@chicandbubbly I'm on endometrin also. They are so nasty. I would so much rather pio shots. Just one more week of suppositories and I am done.
I have my first OB appt on monday. I'm seriously having a hard time with food and the weight gain right now. I just did a huge shopping trip so now I have some snacks and good food to make for dinner. I'm hopping I had a food adversion tonighy. I took out a pork shoulder for pulled pork and it smelled so nasty. I kept gagging. Hope it comes out well in the slow cooker.
Funny story- yesterday I threw out some muffins in a Tupperware that were a few days old and not good anymore. The Tupperware seriously smelled soooo strongly of mold to me it was insane! I even walked by the dishwasher after it was in there and could still smell it. No one else could smell it or thought it smelled weird lol.
Edit: totally forgot to share I started wearing sea bands yesterday and it was the first day in over a week that I didn't throw up!! Nausea definitely decreased. Who knows if it was a fluke I will let you know if they continue to work!!

Yay @freudianmamma I'm sure that is such a relief and now you can breath a little better, congrats!!!
i think I'm going to see if RE can bump my U/S date up, I feel like everyone has had their 1st one close to 6 weeks, right? Mine has me waiting and going crazy, until about 7 and 1/2 weeks.

@mr&mrs.d I had one at five weeks and the next at six weeks(this Friday). And RE told me at the last one that I will go back every week for the next four weeks (I am assuming that means until I am nine weeks). See if you can get it bumped up!!
Mr&Mrs.D my RE does u/s at 6, 7, and 8 weeks. So if they have you go at 7 1/2 weeks do you stay under their care longer? We "graduate" at 8 weeks from the RE.

Hi ladies, just wanted to give you an update and let you know that I have not had any more growth and the mc has been confirmed. Going off meds and hopefully it will resolve itself naturally this week. Good luck to all of you and I hope to make it back to this board sooner than later!

I've had a few cravings but nothing weird yet. I have food aversions too- literally cannot stomach the idea of meat right now. Cannot buy it, cannot cook it. It's so weird because I am usually a meat lover. I don't know what to do about it since I need the protein! Eggs and Greek yogurt are still ok for me to eat. 6 weeks is when all my symptoms began I would say!

@emgem819 still on PIO, until I think 10 weeks, not allowed to BD until first us
@chicandbubbly Haha one extreme to the next.......can't believe I'm asking to throw up or be nauseous, just to know everything is ok. So sick and twisted!!
Good news: I got my US moved up to Monday, woo hoo!! Now I just need to stay busy this weekend, bc I know my mind is going to think all sorts of negative things. Anyone have anything fun planned???

AFM we are headed to the Outer Banks, NC for vacation/Family Reunion thing but currently in a hotel in Delaware with DH and his stepson. Stepson knows nothing about the pregnancy yet so we have to sneak into bathroom and do the PIO shot after he's sleeping and tomorrow morning I have an appt. at Quest Diagnostics lab to get blood drawn for my beta #2 (I'm going to say I am going to fill up the tank before our trip). Ugh! I'm nervous and I don't enjoy sneaking around but we will tell him eventually once we know for sure everything's ok. Hoping for good numbers. But after that I'm looking forward to relaxing on the beach this week and catching up with family I haven't seen in awhile! Anyone else have fun plans this week?

as for any PIO tips, unfortunately no, I have been on them forever and there are good nights and bad nights. I don't blame my body for being pissed that I continue to stick a needle in the same area over and over again. I just keep reminding myself it will end at some point and is all worth it.
your lil getaway sounds awesome, good luck at 2nd beta!!!

I have my first OB appt on monday. I'm seriously having a hard time with food and the weight gain right now. I just did a huge shopping trip so now I have some snacks and good food to make for dinner. I'm hopping I had a food adversion tonighy. I took out a pork shoulder for pulled pork and it smelled so nasty. I kept gagging. Hope it comes out well in the slow cooker.
@Mjacks16 soo sorry!!! Big hugs
Edit: totally forgot to share I started wearing sea bands yesterday and it was the first day in over a week that I didn't throw up!! Nausea definitely decreased. Who knows if it was a fluke I will let you know if they continue to work!!
