Hi Ladies,

I would like to join you. I am so happy to be joining a thread like this. I got my 12dpiui. My 1st beta was 316, 2nd beta was 848 I go tomorrow for my 3rd beta. I'm praying the numbers continued to go up. This has all been unreal at times.

I look forward to taking this next journey with you all!

I took my DH out to eat and had the "stick" in a gift bag wrapped with tissue paper. After we ordered our food I gave him the bag. He was very surprised to see "Pregnant" He wasn't 100% excited because he wanted it confirmed by the RE. So the next day I confirmed it and called him/ He screamed in the phone. By the time I got home from work, our closest friends had already new!!!!

Imagiccat - Yesterday my dairrhea became worse. I feel hungry but dont feel like eating anything. I am only on bananas, applesauce and pedialite. I am a little nervous about the fact that I am taking so less number of calories... but still trying to stay positive...

How are you doing?

Regards

Misbah

My first appt with the OB history nurse is 2-26. Gosh.. seems soooo far away! LOL! My appt with my actual Dr. isn't until 3-9, one day before my birthday! Seems like lately I've been getting sooo tired mid-afternoon. Anyone else experiencing that? My bb's hurt more now but I still find myself asking "Am I really pregnant or is this just one big tease?"

Thanks for the Welcome imagiccat!

I went in for my 3rd Beta Saturday. My HCG came back at 11,177 , Estrogen 1408 and Progestrone was 91.6.

Has anyone seen HCG this high at 5 weeks? I asked the nurse if this meant multiples but she said they would have to see on the u/s.

My 1st Pregnancy u/s is on Feb 11. I can't wait.

What kind of symptoms is everyone having?

Jessica...CONGRATS I'm so happy to hear you got your BFP!!!! YEA!!!!!!! I saw your results on the December IUI thread. I's so happy for you!

[jsk1130]

Hi everyone! How are you doing?

Has anyone had an u/s yet? I don't have mine until the end of the month.

Jessica - those are high beta numbers! I am not sure if they can tell if it is multiples just by the numbers, but I can't wait until your u/s to see how many babies are there!

fristina - my bday is the day before yours!

I wanted to say thanks to all the ladies coming over and wishing us well! Carolina - congratulations to you as well!

I feel yucky at times - it comes and goes - nothing too bad though and I am definitely not complaining!

Hope everyone is feeling well!

[jgibbs0828]

jsk1130,Thanks for the invite over here.

My Beta numbers are very high . I haven't seen anyone else that high yet. My nurse said its either one baby or twins. Nothing more than twins. I just can't wait for the u/s.

Thanks Gracie for the congrats!

How is everyone else feeling? I seem to have ALL DAY sickness not Morning sickness. LOL.. I feel nauseous all day long.

Has anyone had any cravings yet?

Jessica

geez, and we thought the 2WW was bad....all this waiting for the first appts to finally get here is killing me!!! LOL I have such anxiety that I'll have a miscarriage, it's ridiculous. I have no reason to suspect that I'd have one, but I guess after trying for so long, my heart is still on guard. It's been so hard not to tell very many people. Especially when I feel so tired in the afternoon. Still no puking for me, just nausea now and then. It may be just my imagination, but I think my boobs are already getting bigger! LOL!

Susan we can celebrate our birthdays puking this year! Wahoo!

hmmmm, on a second note, hopefully we'll all be doing a bit better by then.

[seeking1stbaby]

Good morning ladies,

Sorry I have been MIA...I have been battling MS and had to miss work yesterday. Today has been rough as well, but I'm going to try to stick it out.

How is everyone else doing?

Fristina - it's soooooo true.... I feel exactly the same way... May be we'll feel a little better once we hear our baby's heartbeat...

Hope things workout great for each of us...

[jsk1130]

Lia - can't wait to hear about your u/s today!

Christina - puking on our birthdays - hey it won't be too far off from previous years! LOL!! Hope we will be feeling well during this time!

Seeking - hope you start to feel some relief from the m/s - is there anything you can take?

I know Lia's u/s is today, what about everybody else?

Hi Ladies,

My name is Jennifer and I just want to say CONGRATS to all of us on our

I am so excited this thread is up and am even more excited to be a part of it !!! I got my first BFP on 1/28 and obsessed and went through a total of 4 HPT just to make sure it was real and "still there" until I went for my first beta on 1/29. LOL.

So my first beta was 131 on 1/29 and my second beta was 951 on 2/2 and my progesterone was 20.89. I go for my first u/s on 2/13 and I am SO SO excited - time is going by so slow...haha. Hopefully my RE will be able to confirm my due date but by all of my calculations I should be due 10/9/2009.

We are excited but so nervous about everything "sticking" the way it needs to. I am just praying this is a H&H pregnancy for us (and all of us).

I have also was having the mild abdominal discomfort on and off during most of last week but it seems to have subsided for the past couple of days. It occurred mostly when I was moving positions. I read that mild non-persistant discomfort is normal but it does make you nervous. I haven't had morning sickness yet, my bbs are mildly sore, and the biggest symptoms I have right now are 1) I have to p all the time, 2) my sense of smell is out of this world, 3) I have to eat like every 4-5 hours...it doesn't have to be anything big, like it could be an apple...but I have to have something or else my stomach feels like it is eating itself. Luckily I am craving health food - vegetables, fruits, chicken, and the wierdest of all...Shirmp??


QOTD: How we both found out is an amuzing story to us...I was convinced that I had a BFN this cycle because I felt perfectly fine. So, I was ready to attempt the hsg test again (first time failed) like the RE recommended. But before you have to confirm that you are NOT pregnant...so I was not suppose to test until 1/30 but cheated and tested 1/28 just so I could get in for the test before AF showed so I could move on with my next cycle. So DH was getting ready for work and I got up and went into the bathroom with my HPT and I put it up on DH's sink (he thinks we should always watch the results together) and watched it just knowing a BFN would pop up and then all of a sudden we see the word "Pregnant" I think we both almost fainted lol.

I wanna join too! I think my due date is October 13!! My husband is military so I get the bare minimum as far as appointments and such. I got my two betas, 12dpiui was 75, and then 14dpiui was 216. Still waiting to hear when I get to do my first ultrasound.

I cheated and tested on 10dpiui and got a positive, so then I ran out and got a digital and when it said positive I decided just to leave it on the kitchen counter and see when my hubby noticed it. I think he was in shock, he made me take another test before he would believe it!

[jsk1130]

Jennifer and Jessica!!! Congratulations to you both!
