Natasha- Checking in to see your results. Hope everything went great today!!

I'm really beginning to get impatient waiting for my u/s. By the time we get around to it, we will be 7wks 1day. It seems like everyone else is having theirs at 5 or 6 weeks. I would like to see the heartbeat so I know that something is actually growing inside me. Thanks for letting me vent. I hope you all are well today.

Natasha, any news yet?

Hello! My tentative due date is March 10th. How are you all feeling?

[kbs1974]

Hi everyone,
Well it seems a little early for pregnancy brain but i did a dumb thing today. I had my 5th and final beta this morning and so eagerly waited for my results this afternoon. i waited... and waited...and was getting really annoyed. when i hadn't heard anything by 3, I complained to DH and then suddenly said- can you check messages at home. So sure enough, there was a message from the RE - i apparantly wrote down my home number not my work number. Duh.

so anyway, I am super annoyed because she didn't say the beta number on the message - just that it has risen appropriately. I am scheduled for an U/S on 7/18. I'll be 5w6d. I can't wait.

I'm mostly feeling tired at this point. How is everyone else doing?

Looking forward to hearing all the U/S reports!!

to all the new girls!

I have been MIA the last couple of days. Been reading, guess to lazy to post. Congrats to all those who had great betas and ultrasounds. I'm going crazy waiting until wednesday for my u/s. My DH and I each picked out a baby outfit today. He wanted to buy me what to expect when you are expecting, but I'm making him wait until after the u/s. I'm so nervous about it. As far as symptoms some days I have no nausea, others I have big waves of it. Today was the first day that I felt so tired I could hardly stand it. But anyways, I hope everyone is doing well and has a great weekend.

Hi Ladies, can I join you all? I am 6 weeks today and due March 6th. I had an ultrasound today, a little early, but we were checking for fluid from my bout with ohss so they went ahead and checked out the embryo too. We couldn't hear the heartbeat, but we could see a little heartbeat and the embryo measured at 5 weeks 6 days, so dr was happy and so am I! It made it feel real to see the little guy. I've been trying not to get too excited because I am very nervous about miscarriage, but it is going to be hard after today.
I haven't had too many symptoms so far. I was really nauseous when I was sick with ohss but I think that was just from my blood and fluids being off and from the meds they were giving me. But now that it is clearing up, I haven't felt nauseous at all - hungry though! I have been having lots of cravings - we've had mexican all week!
Congratulations to all of you! Looks like there will be lots of little ones in March!

Welcome to everyone! We have a great March group going! I'm mostly tired and having nausea, but feel like if i eat every 2-3 hours (something small) I am able to deal with it. I read today that the nausea comes from the blood sugar dropping with increased hormones. I'm just so glad it's friday! I am heading to the beach tomorrow with some friends for a relaxing day. Hope you all have a great weekend!

Natasha- hope things went well today!

Okay, I saw a HeartBeat Today. YEAH.
But here is the other news. The Ges sac is measuring on the small side and the fetal pole is also measuring on the small side. Also the yolk sac is measuring bigger than it should. I am at 6w5d, ges sca and pole measuring in at 6w to 6w 3d. Yolk is 5mm, normal is 3-4mm. RE said it it sometimes known that larger yolk sacs means a chromosone (sp) abnormality (downs syndrome and such). Also the body tends to naturally flush (miscarry) abnormal pregnancies, but all the meds Im on is to prevent that. He is not sure yet what to think so we are still hoping for the best and getting a nother US next Friday. He also said the baby could be perfectly fine just wanted to tell me all the maybes. The heartbeat was 97-101, also said that was on the low side of normal. He also told me I could have ovulated l=on a small follie later than the larger ones ( I had three) and that could be the cause of the low measurings. But doesnt explain the larger Yolk sac. Anyone else out there have the yolk sac be larger?
Anyway I am relaxing this weekend and trying to stay positive.
Natasha
Sorry for the late post, I just got home from Savannah Ga, where I go to see my RE, I live in Jacksonville Fl.

ndsm17: So glad you were able to see the heartbeat yesterday! I will for your little bean. What a load of "maybes" to ponder all weekend, but your RE was honest with you and that's a good thing. Try to relax and keep busy - I know easier said than done!

No nausea for me... but, I have been having some weird feelings about food. Loss of appetite maybe? I'll be craving something and it will sound so delicious, and then about half way through eating, suddenly it's disgusting and I have to get it away!

[Kristens_12]

Glad you got to hear the heartbeat Natasha! I hope you have a relaxing weekend and that the next week goes by quickly for you! Wouldn't it be nice if for the whole pregnancy we could just not worry? I hope you have great ultrasound results next week that put all the worries to rest!

I'm heading to the beach today...going to have to bring lots of snacks to keep the nausea at bay...I've found eating every 2-3 hours helps. Have a great day ladies!

[ekburke]

ndsm17,

My thought and prayers are with you. Let's pray it is nothing and the RE was informing you to be overly cautious! I am sure everything will be fine!


I am so jealous that so many of you have had ultrasounds. M RE makes you wait until at least 6W 3D so you know I am in that door on Wednesday AM when I am at 6W and 3D on the dot.

The only symptoms that I continue to have is some spotting and mild nausea and the idea of eating every 2-3 hours works great. Thanks for the idea. Oh did I forget to mention that I am exhausted!!!!!

I hope all of you are doing well. I love having all of you to share this journey with.

Thanks and best wishes,
Erin

Good Morning girls. Not much going on over here just another warm day.

So I woke up this morning and I DONT Feel pregnant. Should I be concerned? Any of you feel like this?

My appt is on Monday and I am praying so hard that we have a heartbeat and everything is fine. Last night we went out to eat and I was so freakin' hungry I ate some chicken and had bites of DH's burger oh that had never tasted so good in my life, see a week ago I couldn't handle eating meat, it made me so sick after I'd eat it, which is throwing me off. I know things will change but this, what I feel, drastically?

UGH I hope I am not the only one who feels like this. Off to finish breakfast.

Congrats! to those who have had their u/s glad things are looking good.

Natasha, it's great that you saw the heartbeat. I'll pray that your little one continues to grow and that the u/s on Friday will bring lots of great news!!!
