Congratulations. My beta was only 48. I found a lot of encouragement from the ivf success stories thread.

Stephanie- I hope you feel better soon, but that is very true-- when your body starts creating its own pregnancy hormones they say the OHSS can get worse. I have my its a great sign!!!

Who knows? I am not getting my hopes up until BETA day or HPT day!!!!

I guess you ladies will see a lot of me since this will be all I can do!!

I'm very nausous which feels horrible but I love it at the same time lol. I'm taking it as a good sign that the baby is doing what's he/she is supposed to do. I go in for a third beta (I was able to talk my nurse into it) tomorrow along with a hormone check.

New Thread started for May Ladies BFP

I started a new thread for all the BFP May Ladies since officially I am out of my 2ww. I thought there could be a place to chat about betas, US and symptoms etc...Come on over if you want. I see a lot of BFPs.

I haven't forgotten about everyone still waiting. I am constantly checking on everyone all the time.
