Hi Girls! Thanks for the good luck wishes!

Just got the call...

530!!!
I have to go back for repeat beta next Saturday.

How is everyone else doing?

Jen- I have had a hard time sleeping too. I seem to wake up at about 2 in the morning and I go to bed around 9 or 10. I toss and turn from that point on. Body making adjustments I guess.

Cathy --- Great beta!!!! Did they say when you would do your first u/s??

Jen-- I can't wait to hear about your u/s!!! Good luck this morning.

Valerie -- your second beta is almost here too!!

Roxanne --- I am totally waking up in the middle of the night to pee. But, I also then POAS and then have to wait for the results. So, now I am out of bed longer!!!

Is anyone cutting back their activities?? I was outside planting flowers yesterday and weeding my flowerbeds. Do you think that's too much?

Missywojo, I think gardening, weeding, etc. is fine. I did a little bit myself, too. Just don't overwork (and don't overheat) yourself! I took a nice long walk yesterday, the longest since my FET, and it felt so nice.

Jen!!! I cant wait to hear the news!!!! Im so excited for you!!!! Good Luck Girl!!! Im glad your hubby will be there with you!

Missywojo- I went on a 2 mile walk yesterday with my puppies. It was a fundraiser for homeless pets in Utah. I was a bit concerned at first but i think if you take it slow and keep hydrated its okay to do normal activities..... (my coworker was smoking the whole time so I had to keep my distance. Bleah! I was going to tell her so she would understand but then I thought I really don't want to breathe the stuff anyway whether Im prego or not!)

Thanks girls!

Missy-on Memorial Day I did a 10K, which actually turned in to about 10 miles (walking to the start and from the finish back to the car). I wore a heart monitor and kept my hr under 140 (mostly ...I did have to jog across each mile time point!).

I plan on doing a nice walk today. Activity is good, as long as you don't overdo it and you keep hydrated!

Thanks everyone!

Good luck today Jen!!!

I want to continue to do some light exercise but not sure what to do. I think I'll start off with some light walking (while I still have the energy).

Missy, I'm trying to cut back on activities that involve stretching or straining my belly and abs. I don't want to disrupt any implantation. I will probably be going for my u/s June 14 if all goes as planned.

Roxane- totally getting up to pee like once or twice a night and they're long ones too (sorry if TMI!).
