Here I am, Here I am...I JUST now got home! Traffic was horrible this afternoon. Anyways, enough of the suspense...we have ONE baby!
 I know we all thought two, but only one. The nurse said this is exactly why we tell women not to look too much into the beta blood numbers - they can be misleading! The baby measured perfectly at 6 weeks 4 days old, 7.1 mm long and heartbeat was 123! I met Dr. Sims and he really is a nice guy and very patient and gentle. My ovaries were returning to normal size finally. They measured just barely over normal size. I still had some fluid around my pelvis - he said that could be causing the lower back pain too. Thanks for all the support ladies!Congrats Stacey (TX) - looks like our babies are neck and neck!

Cheli- Even though you told me several hours ago I still got a tear in my eye when I saw your post! I am so thrilled for you guys!! Congrats again! Although when I told John he was like REALLY? So yea, I had to admit that I was wrong in predicting your babies! LOL
Stacey- I am so happy for you and your perfect bean! We must have missed each other at CORM- I was looking for you though! Megan- I hope as soon as possible. I know that is the worst wait b/c once she's here then you can finally get started!Nikki- Yea for getting started! I remember being on BCP for about 3 wks so that seems about right. That's great news about finding the money for ICSI!! Well Maryanne called me this afternoon and told me my level was 751- which seems SO low to me. She said that Dr. Schnell was very happy with the numbers and the way I was progressing and she wants to keep me doing what I am doing so that they will all stay in the same range. She said if she were to up my meds some of them may blast off and I wouldn't have as big of a group that all measure the same sizes. So I continue the 75 Follistim and 75 Menopur tonight and tomorrow night and go back Sunday morning at 7am for Dr. Schnell to do my u/s. Maryanne said my ER would more than likely be Wednesday. Maybe I will get lucky and get it on Tuesday- who knows. I just feel like I am crawling along at a turtle's pace over here. But if she isn't worried and she is happy with what's going on then I guess I should be too. I will update after my appt on Sunday!

Congrats Cheli! We are exactly neck and neck. Those were basically the same stats I got today only we had hb of 124! This is just so great to be able to share all these experiences with people who truely understand what we have gone through. Is your back still hurting? Mine sure is, now tonight after telling the nurse that I haven't had any headaches I had a splitting headache. I am thinking it is probably from the tension of today, but oh so worth it!
Kari, yes we completely missed one another! I kept looking for you, but we were called back to do vitals before our actual appointment and then we were taking to the u/s room were we waited for about 45 minutes, then after our u/s we were taken to the consult room for our OB consult. We got out of there at around 11:15 I believe. It sounds like you are progressing right along, and just remember it is quality that is most important. I always wanted a ton of eggs, but never had many at all. I did however have some quality eggs and it worked! YIPEE!

21 days is normal. They may even shorten it by a day or two, depending on their schedule. I'm only taking 20 days, but I was told 3 weeks when I picked them up. I can't believe that I'm already in week 2 of the pack. It really does fly by... for now... Cheli-- congratulations on your bean count!
