Nope I just keep drinking and drinking. It helps that I feel pretty dry and thirsty if I get behind.

The good news for me is that I got a good night's sleep last night. I was really at the end of my rope yesterday with the hormones and the sleep deprivation and a crazy day at work. Much better today!

Hi everyone,

Sorry I haven't been on lately things have been hectic but I have been lurking and keeping up todate.....I have to honestly say I don't feel pregnant....but I think I am just paranoid...it took us sooooo long to get here I'm just being nervous....I go for my third BETA tomorrow and I am hoping for high numbers....I don't go my ultrasound until Feb 28th Ugh that's killing me....I want to go sooner but the fertility clinic only sends you at 7.5 weeks.....so we'll see....anyway just wanted to stop in and say hello and I am still around...I will update everyone with BETA results tomorrow when I get them.....

Melanie

I just recieved my results and Beta #3 is 2448....she said it seemed low considering it is supposed to double every 48 hours but if you check it by using the 72 hours rule (whatever that is) it is normal....now I'm really paranoid....

I know how nerve wracking it is to not have your Beta do a good double. Are they rechecking you in 2 days? When is your US?

Trinity'smom - I calculated your betas here

Beta hCG Doubling Time Calculator

and you are doubling every 2.16 days! That is not very far off. Sometimes I think Betas cause more anxiety than they are worth. Some of the women on the IVF thread have like 4 Betas and even if the last one doubled they are so stressed about the next one, understandably. My RE only does 2 and I think I feel better not knowing and just letting whatever happens happen.

I any case, I think you are fine!

Melanie - you're fine - you fall right in the 48-72 hours catergory! Silly nurse! Congratulations!! I'm with you Claudia - glad RE only does two betas!

Hi frymomma! WELCOME ! And Blessus!!!! Woohoo - more Ocotber babies!

I'm beginning to feel pregnant now. My boobs are just beginning to get sore and I've had a few waves of nausea the last few days. Nothing too bad though. And of course I still feel exhausted and starving and need to pee ALL THE TIME!! Ilove it though since it means I'm !!

Heart Thank you for the welcome

Well i appreciate the welcome. Trinitysmom- I think your numbers look great hun so dont worry. I know easier said then done!lol. Well i feel pretty , but still cantbelieve it. I am going to the bathroom alot but i think that is cuz i am on a water binge, and everytime i go i am looking for (she is due today or yesterday) i have only had some tinged cm but nothing to worry me. OOOOO dont even get me started on the heartburn i have had this morning i had to go lay down it was so bad even after 2 Tums. I dont know if i am tired b/c of the baby or cuz i have been going back and forth to the hospital. DH had a motorcycle accident on Saturday and he had bleeding on his brain but is recovering great . I cant wait to get a beta done to knwo what the deal is. talk to you ladies later i got to sign off.
