Sue...I think many women but especially those that have suffered through infertility can't fully enjoy being pregnant without worry.
The thing is, so often we worry about the wrong things. Meaning, the things we expect to go wrong go right and then things we weren't prepared for happen. To me, knowing this, can be freeing. Why bother to rob ourselves of today's joy worrying about tomorrow? (Easier said than done but that's what I try to do.) Right now, you are WAY pregnant. That.is.awesome. |

| Sending positive thoughts your way Sue. Good luck Emma! My Dr. Called today. None of my embryos made it to freeze so this round was a bust. Going to transfer my frozen guys next month and hope that works! ~Kelly |

I'm sorry, Kelly. That's so disappointing. I'm glad you have some frozen embryos, though. I never was able to get any that far, and it always felt like a blow knowing I'd have to start from scratch each month.
And thanks to the previous poster, that's very kind of you. That's exactly what I needed to hear. Sweet thoughts. I've made an amazon list of birthing and parenting books I want to read -- here's hoping I can order them next week! How's everyone else doing?! --Sue |

Kay here- my beta is tomorrow. I am nervous and I alternate between thinking I'm not pregnant to thinking i have twins because they transferred 2. I am on progesterone so I don't take any symptom at face value. I wanted to test several times but am too scared. How is everyone else? Does anyone have good ideas for distraction? My husband is away and I obsess when left to my own devices. Sue, Annie how are you? Annie, when do you have your beta? Have you tested? Sue, how are you feeling? Kelly, how are you? I'm sorry to read the disappointing news on the embryo front, but am glad you have frozen ones.

Good luck, Kay! Just...waiting for my ultrasound on Wednesday. I've gotten a text and an automated phone call reminder and an email from the RE's office about it, and I'm like "YES I KNOW I HAVE AN ULTRASOUND!" Hoping it will ease some of my worry. Good luck everyone! --Sue |

Emma here --
Kay, that is awesome news!!! I'm so happy for you. And Sue, good luck with the U/S tomorrow! I love seeing such positive news. How are you both feeling? Annie, good luck on Friday! How has the 2ww been going for you? Kelly, I am really rooting for you and your FET. Will you be transferring both embies next month? How are others doing? As for me, I had my transfer today so now I am in the 2ww. We transferred 2 blasts. They are watching the rest of the embryos to see if they are going to be good enough to freeze. We'll see. I'm so nervous. And this time around, the meds are kicking my butt. Ever since I started the Estrace and Progesterone, I've been gassy, nauseous and have had bad headaches. I suffer from headaches/migraines when I'm not on the meds so I guess it's no surprise but geez, I am not feeling well at all these days. The nausea is the worst part. I am going to try to keep busy for the next two weeks and try not obsess about every symptom and every pain. Ugh, so much easier said than done. |

Hi all, ultrasound was today. It wasn't very promising. A fetal sac and pole, but no heartbeat evident yet.
I have another ultrasound on Monday to see if there's continued growth, but my doctor was not very effusive at today's appointment. Good luck to all of you, --Sue |

Sue, I am so sorry to hear that. Was the doctor surprise? I ask because I am a new poster with very similar timing as you (5 weeks, 6 days today) and on my ultrasound yesterday the technician was certain I was too early to see a heartbeat. We only saw a fetal sac and I was told to come back at 7 weeks. Is your timing the same? If so, I think it is way too early still...unless your doctor thinks otherwise...in which case I am so sorry. |

To give you a little hope- At 5w5d I had an ultrasound due to some bleeding and there was no fetal pole or heartbeat. I went back at 6w1d and everything was there! My hcg levels were super high so it was very strange that they couldn't see anything but it worked out. Good luck to you! |

Thanks all!
Emma- I get migraines too, so I know what you mean about these meds. I'm trying to stay hydrated, which is a trigger for me, but I'm not thirsty. Sue, please let us know what next week's US looks like. Don't lose hope. What week and day are you? Do you have a beta to compare? Good luck Annie. Are you going to wait for the beta or test before? As for me, I have another beta tomorrow so I'll see if the number increases. -Kay |
