Linz- Oh, my....I am so sorry AF has not arrived yet. Is there something they can do to help it along? It seems like quite a while. I am so sorry.
Sloulamp- How exciting to see so much movement on your ultrasound! I cannot wait until mine on Friday! And good luck on you NT scan friday....everything will be just fine. Alyson- That is so fantastic that you are starting to feel the baby fluttering! I cannnot wait for that. Winnie- How are things with you....have not heard from you in a bit. When is your next u/s? Anyone heard from PG? I hope everything is okay with her and that her morning sickness is dying down. Thinking of you PG!

pos hpt 3 weeks after m/c???
This is really confusing to me- I had 3rd IVF in Aug and then few weeks after pos beta had m/c and my betas dropped on own. My last beta was on Oct 5th and dr said it was negative. I am about to start some new meds- not fertility- and just out of curiousity found a leftover hpt and decided to take it today just to make sure before take those meds that are not safe in pregnancy. Well. my hpt is pos, but I am thinking prob still leftover from m/c? I read you can have pos hpt for quite some time after m/c. So how long can you have pos hpt after m/c and would you still have pos hpt but neg beta?

Jmom- if you had a negative beta, that means it was less than 5 ( from what I understand). There is no way an hpt would show positive with a level that low. Was it a dark line? I would definately have your dr do a beta before starting any meds! I will pray that your miracle is here! It just happened to Winnie right after IVF
maybe you are preggers!?!? Praying for you!!!!!

Def a dark line, not as dark as control, but much darker than my pos with beta at 36. I went at 4 today for beta today but result won't be back til Monday. I won't start my new meds yet until I know- they were for weight loss- but I could deal with not taking if prego. WOW- would for sure be a miracle if happened. Will update more when I know. It would just be 14 days since conception, so I guess a hpt would show up that early??? Thanks, Jana

So praying for you! Well today I am 13 weeks, and for the past week, if I lay on my stomach (either on the bed or floor) and put my chin in my hands and elbows on the floor, I can feel the baby move, most definitely. Especially when I've just eaten, or about half an hour after I drink juice. I think it's cause my stomach is all stretched in that position, but it sure is fun! So glad everyone is doing good!

Jmom-That would be so exciting! Good luck!
I did start spotting on Friday, but nothimg more. I do not have cramps either. I am guessing that  is on her way. Doc says she can give me meds to help, I can have a d&c, or just wait for it to naturally happen. I was going to have a d&c and then I found out it was more detailed than I thought. I have to be put under and it is like a day surgery. I really do not want to go through that. I am giving it one more week and then we will do something.

LINZ, So sorry you are still dealing with this, did your beta get back to zero yet? I guess bc my beta only got to 129 and I was only 5 weeks, it did not take as long for me. I bled(like a normal period) and had bad back and abd cramps within a week of beta dropping and u/s showed blighted ovum, too. At first, my OB thought I would need a D&C, but I didn't. It is awful to go through that. I understand about just wanting it over with so you can go on. Don't give up hope- bc If I am truly pregnant now, miracles do happen and I had basically given up. Where is everyone? kinda slow- guess all is busy. Jana

Jmom - wow!! Will be checking like crazy tomorrow to see what your beta comes back as.... fingers crossed for a nice high striong number!!!
Youngtucker - I'm 13 weeks today... so I might try what you just said, and lay flat!! I don't think I've felt anything... but can find the heart beat with the doppler I purchased!!! Linz - that truly sucks!.... I hope things turn around real soon for you. It's not fair that it's gone on for this long, and you must be needing some closure... I'm sorry.

Newbie- My morning sickness didn't start until about 7 weeks and lasts pretty much all day! It is still here of course (9.5 weeks) and I am hoping it slows down soon. I hear it usually goes away between 12-14 weeks. I like that I have it because it makes me feel like baby is okay, but the all day thing makes it hard to accomplish much and of course it is a yucky feeling. Happy to do it though if we get our healthy miracle!!!!Jmom- waiting on your beta results......!!!! Praying for a great level! Question for you ladies.....at what point did you notice your waistline increasing? I feel like I am a bit "rounder" and am only 9.5 weeks....seems way too early for that. Also, I have already edited this post 3 times because I am having a tough time SPELLING!!!! Is that a symptom Just kidding.
