Congratulations Laura! I am so jealous everyone is getting to do their ultrasounds. My RE is making me wait. I am not sure if it is scheduling or what. I have thought about calling to see if I could come in earlier than 7 weeks.

Hello everyone. I just got my second beta results today and so far everything looks good. I'm a little cautious to join the "Due Date" thread since it's still so early, but I could use the support from others.

Hi Ladybug,

Congratulations! I see you have thyroid issues. I had mine tested with my 2nd BETA and got the results today. My meds need to be adjusted already. Yikes! My thyroid levels are too low. Have you gotten yours tested?

Are you over the shock yet Tisha?

Heather

I went for my first beta 11 days after my transfer.
8/14 was transfer and beta was on 8/25. I tested on day 5 which was a BFP....should have known then he he he......

I still have not got over the shock. It still doesn't feel real.. I think next week once we hear heartbeat will be a different story!!!

Either way it's been a long road and just hope I deliver a healthy baby/or babies.....

How are you feeling Tish? I can only imagine how excited you and your husband must be. My mom and dad only found out they were having twins 2 weeks before my sister and I were born. I can't imagine! The technology back then (and overseas) wasn't as good as it is today. The suspense is killing me and I have only been waiting a week!!

Talking

I just got back from my U/S, we have one beautifully placed butter bean. Its little heart was beating away. The U/S machine couldnt read it yet, but you could see it beating, so they did an visual estimation of 100 bpm. The doc was really happy with it. They measured the Butter Bean at 5w6d, which is what i counted myself at based on my LMP, but their paperwork says 6w2d which puts my little one a couple days behind. The doc says it is an estimate and that it can be + or - up to 4 days.. OH my God I am soooooo excited, it seems real now.. I dont feel stressed anymore....Well at least not too much. Who is next for an U/S?
