Hello girls: I'm new to this website. I really like all the forums and all the information you can get from other expecting moms. My story is summarized in my signature, and I guess I'm 5 weeks and 3 days pregnant. I'm freaking out a little bit about my betas being so high, but at least they are increasing. I can't get an ultrasound until 7 weeks and I'm dying to know if everything is ok. I don't really have that many symptoms, except for being tired and going to the bathroom very often. This treat is great, and I hope I can keep in contact with all of you. Congratulations to all!!!!

Tatiana! It's nice to have you as part of this group! I wouldn't worry too much about the beta numbers yet...there is a girl i know whose first beta was over 600, and she had a single pregnancy, so you should be ok! It's exciting that they are so good though! Looking forward to sharing this experience with you!

Question
First of all
Tatiana and Tanya! Always nice to have more girls to converse with and share all the good times with.Today I started having dull constant pain on my right side, where my ovary is. Anyone else experiencing this at all? I was on meds, I don't know if it's from a left over cyst or what. Hope everyone is doing great!

![]() Well I have bad news. I woke up yesterday to go for my 3rd beta with extreme pain in my abdomen. It was so bad I could hardly walk. The light spotting started to turn red and heavier. I went to my RE and he didn't seem to concerned, they just took blood and said it was to early for an u/s. I went home and the pain got worse. I coudn't walk, pee or breathe at some moments. The RE called about 6 hours later and said my numbers had dropped and that the pregnancy wouldn't survive. He said come back next week. That was it, not what to expect or explain what is happening to me. I had to go online to research exactly what to expect. I was really aggrevated about that.Anyway, I wish all you March Mamas good luck! Keep those numbers rising! I'll be checking in after I take a little break. Kelly

Starfish- I am so so sorry. I went through something similiar not too long ago so I know, there are no words that will make you feel better right now. Just know that everyone on these boards is with you, and many of us have been where you are.
Lacey- I have had jabbing pains in my ovaries too over the last week. Not constant, just random. I've assumed its the corpus luetum doing its thing....but I'm not sure.

Well I had my RE visit today. I am 5w4d. On the last US two days ago, there was what he thought was the Gest sac, but hard to see, my uterus was tilted. Today he saw the the gest sac, but could not really see the yolk, he said he sees something that might be it, but didn't want to getmy hope up. No fetal pole yet. He said I need to come back next Friday July 11, for another US, I will then be 6w5d. He said that will be a critical day, he has to see the fetal pole and a heartbeat next week or he will be very worried. So I have sevens days of worrying and stress to what and see. I am very scared. I have been having cramps since Iui, and today I not much pain, so Is that a good sign or not? I guess you can read into anything.
I am still keeping my hopes up. Natasha
