Pregnant after IF

Do you have room for one more Snow Bunny?

Hey everyone!  It has been a turbulant few weeks for me!  I had the IVF and the beta was low and it kept creeping up.  Two weeks ago the dr. said there was a 95% chance that I would lose the baby, so naturally I hung onto that 5% with all my might.  Last Thursday he said that there was no sign of a baby in my uterus even though my numbers went up so it was probably ectopic.  I had to get more bloodwork yesterday and the dr. had me pick up a shot that would end the pregnancy because it was definatly ectopic.  So I went to get it and got another ultrasound.  And there it was - a tiny little sac where there was nothing 4 days ago!  There was even a heartbeat!  The doctor said that he will monitor me very closely.  The baby is a week smaller than it should be.  But that he is cautiously optomistic.  So maybe I am the last Bunny who is coming over here and I am a nervous wreck with the emotional rollercoaster I have been on.  But I missed all of my friends!!
