Congrats!!!!! I'm sooo excited for you??? When are you going to your DR???
Yes, Its hard to get used to writing and saying..."I'm pregnant" after so long of waiting

My appt. is set for January 31st.
With my son I had lots of betas and ultrasounds starting around 5weeks with my fertility specialists. Because this baby was COMPLETELY unplanned I'm just with an OB who doesn't want to see me until 8-9weeks.

The reassurance of those betas was so nice, so this is kind of hard to accept!

I had a lot of progesterone issues, and not being on any sort of progesterone support is scaring me now too. I asked for a prescription to be faxed to my pharmacist today, as well as some prenatals! Other than that all I can do I guess is wait for January 31st.

When is your doctors. appt?
According to my online checks it looks like my due date will be Sept. 8 or 9th.

Well...this was completely planned and prayed for and I got it naturally after have a year of TTC. My RE is still doing my betas and checking progesterone. This is my first pregnancy but I think they are ok numbers.
I go back this Thursday for my third check and I'm praying for excellant numbers!!!
I can definately understand your thoughts about your progesterone. Up until now....I've had to be on progestrone after each IUI.
I can't wait till my first u/s so I can hear a hb. I'm not having any preggo symptoms and it scares me because I feel as though its a dream....and I'm gonna wake up at any time. I really need some reassurance that everything is ok and I'm really
Did you have any symptoms with your son??

As far as early symptoms, no I didn't really have any. All the time we spent TTC I would look for the traditional symptoms you hear about, but at first I was tired and had vivid dreams. Around 7weeks I had a VERY sore chest area, and by 10-11weeks I had light nausea.

So far with this one I am having the same intense dreams, which is what actually led me to test, and not much else. I don't expect to feel any serious symptoms for maybe 2 more weeks.

Don't worry about your beta numbers as much as the doubling. My numbers were really low, but they always doubled which was the main thing.

I personally won't feel assured about this little baby until I see a heartbeat, and of course I'll feel a lot better after getting past the 12 week mark. Even having one successful pregnancy I am still quite nervous at this early stage of the game. Thankfully my son has started walking and keeps me on my toes at all times which helps the time go by!

I hope your third beta is great on Thursday! If I remember correctly once you hit 1000 they will schedule the ultrasound!

Thank you!!! Hearing that you didn't have symptoms either makes me feel better.
Make sure and update as you go along and after your appt.

Hello, and Congrats! I just heard from my OB today that I am going to get one blood test done this week. Hoping Thursday or Friday. So excited to hear a number and know everything is going okay.

[sstacileigh]

Thanks ladies! And sending positive thoughts and for all of our bloodwork this week!

[kekepania]

I'm going for my bloodwork today at 3:45. I feel so relieved to be doing it, because I want to know that my progesterone levels are okay. If they aren't okay I want to get a prescription a.s.a.p. I needed it with my son for 11weeks, so I've felt so nervous not being on anything this time. Hoping all goes well!

Good Luck and let us know your results!!!

Hello ladies, second beta came back great today, 694, doubled nicely. Now I have to wait until my ultrasound on 1/25, that's going to be an agonizing three weeks for sure!

How did everyone else's bloodwork go?

[kekepania]

sstacileigh - congrats on the good beta!

I haven't heard back on my bloodwork. Hoping to get a call tomorrow, and if not I will call myself to see what's up.

Our ultrasound/first check up is scheduled for 1/31. Can not wait! I will definitely feel a heck of a lot better once I see a little heart beat
