Pregnant after IF

First u/s and an update :) :)

Hi Ladies,

Sorry I've been MIA.  I was having a tough time fully accepting this pregnancy (despite the nausea, exhaustion, sore boobs, etc) because we hadn't had an ultrasound yet.  We finally hit 7 weeks today, and was able to have our first ultrasound.  They were 20 minutes late taking us in for our appointment, and DH and I were shaking with nerves! 

As soon as the tech started the ultrasound we could see a heartbeat right away Big Smile  Then a split second later, there was another one!!  We have TWINS (so excited to say that!) that were measuring right on track at 7 weeks!!  We got to hear their heatbeats too, which was like music to my ears! Baby A had a heartrate of 138bpm, and Baby B had a heartrate of 130bpm.  The ultrasound was showing some unidentifiable object (possibly another yolk sac) near Baby A, but the tech and RE didn't seem too concerned. I go back next week for another u/s at 8 weeks since they like to monitor twin pregnancies a little longer before releasing us. 

Now I just have to cancel my OB appointment I had scheduled for next week...  And I promise to be a more active poster on this board now! Wink

After 5 TI Clomid cycles, 5 IUIs, and 2 IVFs we finally got our BFP!
Beta#1 (12dp3dt)= 353, Beta#2 (15dp3dt)= 1466, Beta#3 (22dp3dt)= 14,139, First u/s: TWINS!!
After 10 weeks of bedrest, our two little ladies joined us at 28w6d
