Our first ultrasound was today! I am six weeks. We saw the gestational sac, yolk, fetus and the heartbeat! We even got to hear the heartbeat, which I wasn't expecting to hear (or see!). Wow...it's so incredible to think I have another heart beating inside of me!
My p4 is still really high so they are switching me to crinone instead of PIO. Any tips on that or is it a cinch?
So excited!!!
Stopped BCPs December 2008
TTC since June 2009
6 unsuccessful Clomid cycles
Dx Annovulatory due to PCOS January 2010
DH-perfect
4 unsuccessful IUIs
Began Lupron July 7 for first IVF
IVF cancelled; overstimulation and coasting lead to huge drop in E2
New testing with an Endocrinologist...perhaps a new diagnosis...
So, not PCOS but Hashimoto's Thyroiditis November 2010
After a looong break, started seeing a new RE. Gearing up for IVF 1.2.
Beta 1=197!!

Re: First ultrasound!
Congratulations, that's great that you saw the heartbeat... we saw ours at 6w exactly too! It is amazing!
My P4 was low so I was on PIO plus Crinone. Crinone is nasty stuff, just gross. It apparently can come out in a variety of colors, though I mainly had a white/off-white color. Very lovely. It's easy just gross. lol
I have a box of crinone if you need it! text me!
Congrats again on your u/s!! i am beyond excited for you!!!!!!

That first u/s is the coolest thing, isn't it? Makes it go from surrreal to real.
Crinone in the intravaginal supplement, right? My only tip with that is don't try to use an applicator, just use your fingers and it gets easy after a few tries. Much easier than PIO.
