It has truly meant a lot. It has been extremely helpful to have this group of women to talk with during this process. I wish the best of luck to everyone with bfp and those in the 2ww. For those who have started new cycles, I hope to join you in a few weeks!

KelB, I am so sorry. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Sending big your way.

COngrats Megz!

Baby4gerbee.... I just went for my second beta too... waiting for results. Im terrified as well... was feeling nauseous last night (def. was fear, nothing else!).

Ladies... has anyone had a lot of bloating that wont go away ? My stomach (upper abdomen) is quite bloated ... I look pregnant (!)... wondering if it might be OHSS or fluid buildup. The RE offered to do an U/S today to check... but I declined ... waiting for second beta results first. Only so much I can handle in one day.

Best of luck baby4gerbee !!!

Anj - I am a bit behind you in the process - but I have been very bloated since stimming and the ER. My DH and look at my belly and we are like - WHoa ! This is what we would look like PG !! Keep drinking your water - it will go away !

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR 2nd BETA !!

Kelb, so sorry for what you're going through. for your miracle, now or soon!

Anj, my upper is bloated too. I've been wearing loose clothes all week to hide it!

Megz, CONGRATS on your girl! I was thinking what Brandy was thinking-maybe twins. You know it's not out of the question. I also only transferred 1 but nurse told me if you bd'd near ovulation there's a chance you can get pregnant and the embryo from the transfer could implant so you'd have multiples!

AFM, I had my 3rd beta today-7,693.7

There was no sack visible on the u/s. My lining is very thick so they said to expect a lot of cramping over the next few days as AF arrives. I still have to watch for excessive bleeding or cramping, but hopefully it will just pass easily. Congrats to all those with BFP and increasing betas. Best of luck over the next 9 months.

P4 results are in....

Results are in. It was a 32.8 which they said was an "excellent level"

I am thrilled - I know its not indicative of anything - but I always had low p4 results with my IUI's so hearing "excellent" brings a smile to my face.

Have a great day all !!

Wannabe, congrats on p4 levels. I didn't know what good was until your message and just got mine-it was 39 so I'm glad.

Anj, congrats on a nice 2nd beta and good luck for the next one. AT least you didn't have to wait a week between the 2 & 3 like I did! We are SO impatient huh? lol
