Pregnant after IF

First U/S update!

I am so freaking excited! I just got back from the ultrasound and I saw 2 sacs, both with a yolk sack!!! The nurse said one measures 5w4d and the other 5w.  This concerns me a bit.  I asked her if one had stopped growing possibly and she said that could happen, but it could also be behind the other one further away in the uterus or a late implanter.  I am praying that both babies continue to grow.

On another note, the nurse said I was 5w3d pregnant, but I asked the doctor at transfer how far along I would be considered at that moment and he said 2 weeks, which made me think I am 5 weeks tomorrow.  Which one is right??? 

Re: First U/S update!

  • That's great news congrats x2. I usually count how old the embryo was at transfer and the days following transfer to get the due date.

    These were 5dt embryos...I think that gives a different number?  It has been 20 days since transfer.

  • Congrats!!!  I am so confused on due date calculations and plan to ask tomorrow at my first ultrasound if all goes well.  I thought that you count by 2 weeks plus age of embryo at transfer plus how ever much time went by (20+5+14= 39 days/7, maybe 5 weeks 4 days??).   IVF.ca has calculator for 5 day FET.

    If I change the days from 1 to 5 on the babymed.com website it give me 5w3d also...I think that must be correct!

  • I'm loving all the great news this week! My doc had said I was at 5w3d last Wednesday, when ivf.ca had me already at 6w. They explained to me that the measurement was correct because they count from the time of implantation. I thought that made sense.
    On 10/23/13 Baby Sophie and Baby Gabriel born at 21+5 weeks. They grew wings and flew away from us. May God bless them always. We love you beans!
