Good news! We have one perfect little bean with a perfect heartbeat! It was truly amazing to see the little heart fluttering away on the monitor and then hearing the heartbeat! We are ecstatic!!!!

Our next ultrasound is in 2 weeks and the nurse said we will be able to see a lot more! Yea!

P.S. - If you take progesterone suppositories, you might want to wait until after your ultrasound to take your dose! The dr. had to open me up and clean it out so he could see the baby! It was really painful - especially since I haven't been bding!!!!

Tisha and congratulations on the ! We are so glad to have you join us Sept mommies. How are you feeling?

Who has gained weight besides me. From the the time of stims to transfer I had only gained 3 pounds. But since then I have gained 7! I'm eating really healthy and started walking (slowly) last week. It's really got me frustrated. I don't want my RE to think I'm over eating because I'm . People can be so judgemental. Maybe I need to up the water intake. I know my Beta is through the roof I wonder if that's it? Or multiples? I don't know. I just want to be healthy.

I'm trying to get a picture on the computer, but I don't have a scanner and my digital camera keeps flashing and making a glare so I'll keep trying!

I didn't get the heartbeat number or info. on the fetal pole....they just said everything looks perfect!

Mysis - I have gained 7 pounds since my beta so don't worry! The reason why we get the 'glow' is because our blood volume increases, which would cause some weight gain. Also, I read the bloatness is from your stomach muscles relaxing so the uterus can expand! Mother nature is working amazing things in our bodies and everything is going to be just fine! Just keep eating healthy, drink plenty of water and don't diet! Your RE won't be judgemental - they are just happy you are pregnant & able to eat right now!

Hello ladies...got 2nd beta results and it was 646. I have to get another one tomorrow. I asked when they thought I would get an ultrasound and they said the week of the 19th , ugh I have to wait a another whole week. Is anyone else feeling as tired and exausted as I am. Im supprised I can even make it through the day at work. Everyone keeps telling me that the tiredness goes away after 1st trimester.

How is everyone else feeling??

Tish!!! What a wonderful group to coem and join!

Praying, I cant wait to see pictures!!

Mysis, I have gained between 10-12 pounds with the stim drugs, since the very beginning of the IVF process, so dont worry hun, your not alone!! I have never eaten healthier in my entire life, so I know its not that. I will say though that throughout this process, I also quit smoking, so that also prolly has something to do with it.

Hey there Littlebean,
Congrats on getting your second beta, do you remember what your first one was? The week of the 19th sounds like forever away, thats how I felt with mine which is the 15th, but it is coming, slowly but surely...lol the waiting never ever ends!!!

Hay ladies, I'm so glad it's friday and it is the last friday for three love mommies to be left wondering what is going on inside my belly!

Waiting for the seems like it was so long ago as we wait again for the hb's and fetal development pictures.

Today was a good day and with Praying and Jo's positive posts I feel sooooooooooooooooooooo much better.

littlebean -

I just can't imagine what Monday will be like. So many emotions.

Hi girls, mind if I join you. My due date is Sept. 6 (according to last cycle) but I had an ultrasound on Thursday and the sac measured a week ahead, so that put my due date at Sept. 1. I have another ultrasound next thursday, so I'm hoping we can see a lot more!
