Fossie, I am with you. I even POAS a couple days ago to make sure! When is your first ultrasound?

[flamingpajamas]

Laura! I am in San Francisco! It is so nice to have Bay area girls on this thread.

Blessus, we are US buddies, mine is on the 22nd too!

I feel entirely unpregnant today. Hmmm. I am not going to worry about it (say it 10 times every hour).

V-day was nice. DP did not get me anything either. She is a wonderfrul person who is extremely thoughtful in so many ways. gift giving is not one of them. She is always happy to put up track lighting or do the dishes or give me a massage though, so I am not upset. We went to a play last night. I took a nap after work, but I still BARELY made it through. Today is going to be rough.

Blessus - that is too funny - I have been POAS occasionally too just to make sure (my dh encourages this crazy behavior)! My u/s is on the 20th - next Wednesay - time is dragging!!!

My dh and I have never done a big Valentine's thing - we just usually go to dinner and get drunk! Well, the last part didn't happen and we went to dinner Wednesday night instead - but it was good. He gave me a bouquet of scratch off lottery tickets which I much prefer to flowers and we watched LOST - it was a good evening especially since I was able to hit the sack at about 9:30! We have been instructed that there is to be no playtime until after first trimester and it has already been a while on restriction so I guess DH is getting used to it!

Tap- I just started getting frustrated with my bra's but not clothes yet. Today i put on my bra and i am falling out of all sides and feel ackward. I think my clothes still fit because my but has been getting big for like a year now and i went shopping two weeks ago for clothes and bought them a little loose because i knew that it was a sure thing that as soon as i bought something i would grow out of it or it would shrink (and i didnt even know i was prego) hehe.

flamming- my dh is the same way he is thoughful but not a gift kinda guy.

Hi ladies...I jsut found out I'm finally pregnant on Tuesday (14dpiui #1) My first beta (14dpiui)= 198, second (16dpiui)= 490....it more than doubled in 48 hours!

My first sono is Tues 2/19 and I can't wait! Right now it looks as though my EDD is October 22!!

I look forward to the next 9 months! A happy and Healthy 9 months to all of you!!

ok so i know this is horrible but about yalls comments on POAS - I have done it every day from the 7th till today. Partially because i am crazy and partially because i am scared that if i m/c i will not know b/c of the progesterone. i feel like a tard. I think when i get some beta numbers i will feel more secure. I really need to be saving that money but i have two left one for saturday and one for monday bf my u/s



Oh an i dont know if i mentioned but my name is Lorry so nice to meet you all. lol

[frymomma2b]

BLS81- Welcome sweety and congradulations on your bean! I am due on the 28 from my calculations and my first u/s is on monday so we are pretty darn close

[fossie]

frymomma - that is why I was doing it too - I don't want to have a missed miscarriage because of the progesterone but then that seems silly because it would take a bit longer for it to get down to a level where it wouldn't show on an hpt so I guess it is really just for some kind of peace of mind in warped doesn't really make sense kind of way!

[frymomma2b]

opppps i meant the 18th of October

[frymomma2b]

Yeah even though i know it would take a while to get down low enough for the hpt not to pick it up. (last time it took 6 weeks) I still feel more comfortable to see "pregnant" on that white stick. Maybe we should invent one that sings or something so we can be intertained during all this time spent peeing on them and waiting lol. yesterday i actually got excited because it took ALOT less time for the "pregnant" to pop up. Not that it is justifyable but your mind goes "maybe there is more hcg now" I am such a doofis

[flamingpajamas]

Frymomma, I am sure would be POASing if I didn't have a beta too. For me I haven't POASed b/c I got 2 negatives on HPTs the day of my Beta and I am scared they will be negative accurate or not. I am sure the tests I took were just bunk, but I am scared of them anyway. So I just live in uncetainty until by US. Things could definitely be worse...

[blessusw/baby]

I love you guys!! The other day when I POAS I went to DH and said "baby, I'm pregnant" he's like "I know" then I told him I had just POAS again and the second line was darker than the control!!

Here is to seeing the little bean's heartbeat!!!

It is so awesome to be going through this all together, what did people do before the internet?

[fossie]

My dh and I were talking about the need to invent an at home hcg beta test - they have at home tests now for everything else why not this - I definitely would be an addict and it would probably drive me insane but it would just be great to know what those numbers are after the re stops taking them!

[kzwick]

Okay, so I can officially post here now because they say I am good to go! Had a scare with an initial 21 but it more than doubled in 48 hours and is now a 50 @ 11dp 5dt!!!!!

I am 4weeks and 2 days and my EDD is October 23rd! I am SOOOOOOOOOOO excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!
