Hello everyone and to all our new March buddies!
I'm glad to hear that so many are having mild cramping, because that is how I've been all weekend. Nothing too painfull, just tugs and pulls. And breasts are starting to ache a little.
I wish my RE would do a third beta- but they only do two and I'm not going to push them.
Passionscientist- I hope you are right about the twins!!! You made my morning saying that. I know it would be twice the work I would love the double blessing.
I held off telling very many people this weekend. I was at a family reunion on Friday and almost spit it out a 100 times but I didnt. I think I'm waiting to see that heartbeat on the 21st. And I admit, its nice for DH and I to have our own secret little thrill. Our parents know of course- but thats it.

Question: progesterone suppositories. On my last beta, my progesterone was 65 which my RE's nurse said was "awesome". But i have these suppositories and i was wondering, should I take them anyway? I mean, has anyone out there had great numbers but took them anyway to ward of MC. I'm just so paranoid I want to do everything in my power to prevent what I went through last time.

Kimberly~ I am taking the Prometrium, but the last time my progesterone was checked was 7dpiui. They haven't checked it when they did my beta. I would call your dr and ask them if they want you to take them. I'd probably say not since your progesterone is a good number.

How was everyone's weekend? Mine was good, had a great 4th, started cramping semi bad on sat, then had diarrhea (sorry tmi) all day yesterday, and today I am having pain on one side and constantly running to the bathroom to check if I am bleeding becasue of the increased wetness down there. I can't wait until next week when I see my peanut on the ultrasound. and the heart flickering away.

It came back at 3,360. So I'm thrilled. I go for an ultrasound on July 16th and can't wait.

Hope everyone is having a great day.

Awesome Beta Lacey!!!!!

mamaof2- they told me I didnt need the progesterone, said I could if I wanted to. I just wondered if there was a chance I could be great now, but the projesterone could inexpicably drop or something, leading to MC. I mean, if its good now does that mean it will stay steady?

lacey- that's a great number! we will be having ultrasounds the same day.

hope everyone has a good day!

Great beta Lacey! My RE doesn't do any more than 2 betas, so I am curious what mine would be. Only 2 more days until my ultrasound though! I am everything is perfect!

Hello,

I am glad to join you. My due date is 3/6/09.

I have an appointment with RE today and I hope my HCG is going well.

Jana, my numbers are similar to yours. How are you feeling?

I also have very minor cramping.

I have been reading about your sore boobs. When do they hurt? Mine hurt when I touch them or if someone hugs me.

I hope we all make progress together and have 9 fun months ahead.

lacey- that is a great beta number!!!

chuchu-welcome!!!

Is anyone really nervous about their u/s? Mine is Thursday and I pray there is a little hearbeat there. I feel so sick all the time and my boobs hurt like crazy..its nothing like my first pregnancy..so I really hope its pointing towards a strong healthy bean!!

[Kristens_12]

Welcome chuchu!

Wondering if any of you are emotional? The past few days I could cry at the drop of a hat, and that isn't normal for me. My boobs are a little sore, but not that sore yet, but I'm not complaining! I am excited for my ultrasound, but i will be only 5.5 weeks and they said it is too early to see a heartbeat yet on that one. I get another one next week, which is when they expect to see a heartbeat...i might be more nervous about that one.

I'm doing good. I don't have too many symptoms.....fatigue, wee wee all the time, and sometimes finding something that sounds good to eat is a challenge. I'm waiting for the day that I feel pregnant. How are you feeling?

Kristin_12, I guess you could add that to my list of symptoms.......weepy. I am the same way...I can cry over anything.

Lacey, that is a huge beta. Good to see that your beta is rising.

[Lacey]

Chuchu!!

Kristen- Exciting you will get to see your bean this week!

Christen- Have fun at your ultrasound. I'm also nervous about mine. But I think all this is normal. Especially with all the symptoms.

Thanks for all the encouragement on my numbers. I was pretty excited. My symptoms as far as morning sickness goes in waves. Yesterday I had a couple of times I thought I might lose my lunch, but hey, I'm not complaining. My boobs are sore every now and then, but nothing crazy. I' am still cramping off and on, but nothing bad. I do have a question. A friend and I were floating around in our pool today, and I got burnt, anyone think I did anything to hurt my little one. Worried about that, but then again I'm worried about everything. Well glad to see we all having symptoms....keeps us knowing we are .

[Lacey]

Holly- Exciting we will share our u/s day together.

[fifi03]

i feel like my symptoms are getting less and less. i don't know if that's a good thing or not. i was crampy last week, but not so much anymore. also, my boobs were sore last week, but hardly at all anymore. i am very tired though. i'm just very nervous. i did drink apple juice this morning with breakfast and didn't feel well after that, but that lasted about 20 minutes, then i was ok again. i don't know what to think!!!
i'm just so nervous from everything i've been through, that i really everything is going well in there! and that i have a healthy little bean next week for my ultrasound!!! next week can't come quick enough!

lacey- i too am worried about being in the sun. i'm supposed to go to the beach tomorrow, but i'm so nervous about it. i'm also nervous to swim in the water because of the salt, and in a pool the chemicals! i'm just over nervous i think!!!

[Mamaof2hoping4more]

Hey girls sorry haven't posted in a few days. Just been tired and the dizziness has started.

I have my ultrasound either the 14th with my midwife or the 15th with the Reproductive center. I am nervous, but I am praying that we have a strong heartbeat. They say you can't see it until 6wks 3 days, but I looked at my u/s pics with my son and we saw his hb at 5wks 6days. So I guess it depends on the baby really.

Anyone having food adversions yet?

Also my cramping has subsided should I be worried? If it wasn't for the nausea, dizziness, dry heaves, sore bb's I'd think I wasn't pregnant.

Well I am off to finish some more on my project then lay down with my son. I will check back later.

Hello everybody,

Thanks for the welcome!! I am very happy to have you as due date buddies.

Yesterday I went to RE and we saw ONE sac!! I am sooo happy. I was worried about the HCG numbers. Next Thursday I will go for another one.

Symptoms:
My boobs are hurting much more (only when I touched them). I am just a 34 B.

My cramps are Ok. RE says are because of the luteal remains in my ovaries; and, that I am over scanning my body reactions (which is very true!).

I am tired and want to take 2 naps a day.

Yesterday we went to see Sex & The City... I loved it!

I hope you have a great day!
