  • Congrats @hibiscus118 and @FamousAmous I have a third beta on Monday with my regular blood draw, so I just decided to wait and get all 3 numbers when they call then.
  • 2nd beta was great! 3875! First ultrasound is March 21st!!
  • @Bharvey10 that's awesome!! Congrats to you!!

    I had my 2nd beta today but I couldn't get an appointment till 3pm and it was done at Quest, so my RE definitely didn't get the results before they closed. Considering the fact that they aren't open on weekends, I have a feeling I'll be waiting till Monday for results  :s

     I had a late yesterday morning U/S and man can I tell you what a mess I was this morning while I was getting ready. I was just so anxious to hear some/any news. I am back and well we have one beautiful Jellybean looking back at me. I am not going to say I wasn't disappointed not to see 2 but I am just so happy and beyond words to see 1! My little magic bean. RE asked me if I saw the heartbeat and I said no so he turned on the audio and I instantly started crying. HB was 168 and baby is measuring 7w2d so right now I am ahead. ANNNN I graduated today! I had no clue that was coming, I thought I had at least one more but he told me to go ahead and head to an OB and come back when I have a baby to show everyone. AS soon as he left the room a nurse who has been there from the beginning was showing me the U/S pics she had for me and told she wrote "Hi mommy" on one and then we both lost it, we both just started boo whooing. So now I am back at work looking for an OBGYN and will try to book to go back next week so I can try and see my little nugget again!! I am so relieved to have seen a baby on that screen.Another big hug and thanks for all the support

  • @Joslynj11 what great news, congrats again  <3

    How's everyone else's doing?


    I had my second beta Friday.  It was 270.  Third beta was this morning and it was 770 :)
    I go for my first ultrasound next Tuesday.

  • @Joslynj11 oh wow how cute! I can't wait to go in for mine. @hibiscus118 That's great! My coordinator sent me an email today instead of a call, which is fine by me since I was doing a two hour round trip to pick up the rest of my meds, So no beta #'s yet. I asked for them when I replied. But, she said the third beta looks great too and that my ultrasound is on the 24th! I can't wait to see everyone's ultrasound pics posted!
  • Thank you ladies all so very much! I really couldn't have gone through my 3rd transfer without so much support from such strong warriors such as yourselves. I hope this baby continues to cook and I pray that I get to meet them in October! Thank you again ladies and I think it might finally be my time to move on to the other side. I am literally tearing up as I write this because I never knew when I would see the day <3

  • Congrats on all the lovely ultrasounds and betas! I love seeing these!

    AFM, I'm about 6 and a half wks. We heard the heartbeat for the first time on Thursday at our last ultrasound. My SO and I completely lost it. We started telling a few people really close to us who knew we were doing IVF, which has been so joyful and lovely. (Posting the u/s below)

    But this morning I had a slight scare. Possible TMI, but on top of continued PIO injections, I've also been using Endometrin, and today I had some spotting in addition to the usual progesterone discharge. I called the nurse's hotline immediately, and the nurse on call was incredibly reassuring, but it was the worst feeling. The ultrasounds have been amazing, but I still feel so anxious that this could just end without warning. Trying to stay positive... but that was so scary.



  • @FamousAmous

    How did the ultrasound go? are you having 1 or 2???

    AFM:

    My nausea has been seeming to subside but i still have a poor appetite in the evening which has been pretty consistent since about week 5. I just worry every time i dont have a symptom because with my last MC i stopped having symptoms around week 9 and i was all happy to be feeling good and then at 10 weeks my US showed that development stopped at 8.5 weeks. I am now 8 weeks 2 days and full of anxiety, i have blood work tomorrow that i should get results by tuesday and maybe that will reassure me things are still progressing but i think i am going to be a ball of nerves until my next ultrasound on the 30th. its such a long time to wait i dont know how i will make it.

  • @kjplaza My ultrasound went well! Couldn't see much at 5 weeks 5 days, but what he could see was measuring where it should, which is all I cared about lol He only saw 1 sac though!! But he also said sometimes he'll notice a second sac at a subsequent ultrasound  :o I highly doubt that'll happen though. 

    I don't blame you for being nervous!! I only had a CP last time and I'm a nervous wreck myself. That must have been so hard for you. The blood work results will definitely help relieve some anxiety, then it's just a week and a couple days after that till the ultrasound :) You can do it!!

  • Got my first ultrasound done today, We saw the heartbeat but didn't get to hear it. Our second ultrasound is set for two weeks from now :blush: still doesn't feel real. Wish this clinic had a better machine... but after the next appointment I'll be released from the out of state clinic and I'll start with a new doctor here. I haven't loved the clinic I've been working with :neutral:
  • Hey guys, it's gone pretty quiet around here so I wanted to see if anyone had any interest in joining a Facebook birth group just for February IVF/FET ladies? A group of us from another site started one and so far it's been great so I wanted to mention it here. Let me know if you'd like join, we'd to love to have new members!

    I had my final ultrasound with the fertility clinic and yet again my worst fears came true and there was no heartbeat again. i am scheduled for a D&C on
    tuesday and my ER makes me wait 2-3 months before being able to try again. plus we will have to start over with testing to find out why when all my lab work and tests have been normal i cant get passed 9 weeks pregnant. were devastated and exhausted but i pray we get answers and someday have our take home baby. 

    wishing everyone else who got their BFP's continued healthy pregnancies
