So funny-- I actually started crying in writing the new forum name-- It is really like graduating... we have come so far and get to leave almost all of the needles behind.
Bits -- When do you go for your next u/s? Are you still on somewhat bed rest? No jinxing! You are going to make it this time!! Holi- Glad to hear your u/s went well and you got to see the heartbeat!!! I go to my OB for the first time on June 18th- that is my next u/s. I had loads of cramping in my ovaries this past week and was told this morning my ovaries went down a lot from last week...so that makes sense. I did have my u/s this morning... we have 2 heartbeats... one baby measuring 6w6days and one 6w4days!! I am 7 weeks... but they say as long as you are close and they are growing you can give or take a couple of days.  they both stay put. We have decide to wait unitl June 18th to tell anyone.Kay- can't believe you feel like fooling around... we haven't done anything in like 3 months. My poor dh... I have been biting his head off lately. Very pukey feeling still... Jolly Ranchers rule right now... Tums at night and milk. Good Luck tomorrow Amanda! Mandy- you are welcome to stay here with us.

Yay! I found it!
I'm with you bitsniu, I am afraid of jinxing myself. I am trying to tell myself it is okay and that I can't stress like I normally do, I want to be able to enjoy this as much as possible. Awesome, Dee, 2 heartbeats and they are measuring close together. Does that mean baby B grew to catchbaby A? You'll have to let me know what it is like to go to a normal ob, I won't go until sometime in July! Thanks for setting this up, I will just have to remember where it is when I come on now. Holi: That is so cool that you had the heartbeat measured, my doc didn't do that. Not sure why but I wasn't thinking to ask when I was there. I was so amazed to see the blinking light, like an alien in my tummy.

Dee- Great news on your u/s! I'm so glad that you heard both hbs.
Thanks again for starting the new thread. Bits - I'm nervous too about switching over. I keep worrying that I'll get bad news on my next u/s on Tuesday. When is your next u/s? I hope you all don't think this is too corny, but I decided that I needed a positive affirmation to read every time I start feeling negative. I hope this will help me try to stop all of the worry from consuming my thoughts each day as I wait for my next u/s. I wanted to share with everyone what I came up with: "I will not worry today about negative things that might happen. I will not worry today about things that are out of my control. I will not worry today, because worrying will only result in taking away the joy from today." I thought it would be a good idea to start a list of everyone's due dates so that we can keep track. Please copy the list, add you due date and then paste into your next post. I'll get us started: Due Date List JDW (Jody) - 1/11

That is a good idea-- Is your due date the same no matter what? twins vs singleton?

Hi all,
My next us is Wed the 10th and if all is well then I graduate to my ob...I already have an OB appointment for the 15th. I do not have a due date yet, they did not tell me. I used a IVF predictor on the internet and it says 1/20/09, with my uterus being halaf the size I may go early, I am hoping for an early baby...maybe Christmas!

Hi bits and jdw - glad we've all graduated to this post!
Not sure what my due date is according to the dr...but I went on the IVF due date calendar and came up with this... Due Date List JDW (Jody) - 1/11 2Pups&ahub (Dee) - 1/21 Holi521 (Shannon) - 1/24 Amanda - Good luck tomorrow - &  !!!! R U taking a valium? I did. I was so anxious and nervous and it made me feel so much better. (Plus they said it relaxes your uterus) I didn't think I would feel that way - and I wasn't going to take it (I did fine with all my IUI's, so I didn't think I would have a problem) but when I woke up that morning I just felt anxious. We stopped at Dunkin Donuts on the way down to the hospital and I couldn't even eat! The valium really helped with my nerves.

Yes, I am taking a valium! I actually had them write me a script for two when they were writing it for one (for the morning of ER) and I told them I wanted another for the morning of ET and they acted like I wouldn't need it but I know women have taken it and it helped to relax them. I am always anxious and know I will be overly anxious in the morning so I'm glad they gave it to me. Plus I also heard that it helps relax the uterus. Can't wait!!!

Crinone Question
I have a question for anyone taking Crinone...I looked at the applicator tube by holding it up to the light and they are only about halfway filled to begin with and then after inserting it and squeezing the "bulb" to inject the gel in there, I took it out and held it up to the light again and it didn't seem to go down very much...still about 1/3 full and I squeezed and squeezed the bulb and no more would come out...is this the case with you? I'm really concerned if enough is going in there. My RE's office doesn't usually test P4 levels but I have requested one the day of my beta but that's two weeks away! They assure me enough is going in but I just want to make sure I'm doing it right...any advice/experiences are appreciated!
