Help! I'm confused about my 7 week appt.

[Mimi1808]

Got my 2nd results of hcg today and it's 1140.  I was told to schedule my 7 week u/s for 7/28.  That doesn't sound right based on the following:

HCG trigger shot: 6/21
egg retrieval: 6/24
day 3 transfer: 6/26
HCG results #1: 7/8 (581)
HCG results #2 : 7/10 (1140)

I just called back and left a message with a nurse to call me back but does this sound unusual?  I counted that it would be only 5 weeks from ER date.  Am I counting wrong?

Congratulations to you too!  It's such an exciting time.

Morning sickness is the first thing that came to mind just because my mom had it really bad with both my sister and I throughout her pregnancy.  I don't really have any symptoms yet but just bloating and cramps every now and then but i think that might be effects from the progesterone injections.  

I'm definitely trying to take it easy.  It's my first IVF cycle due to male infertility, my husband was missing the vas deferens.  We were stressed out for many years wondering why we weren't getting pregnant and finally decided to seek help.  This has been a roller coaster event for us but I think has made our relationship stronger.

Thank you so much for all of good wishes and support.  This forum has made the process so much easier to handle for me since there are so many great people that are willing to share their experiences and knowledge.  

Thanks again and goodluck to both of you!  Take care and keep us updated on how you are doing.

I am very happy for both of you.... I am 13 weeks pregnant today....Heather5 and I are way back since 07.. we tried and tried and finally God answer our prayer and both of us are pregnant.

Morning sickness, headache, fatigue, tired, etc.. will hit you soon.. I just over my morning sickness couple days ago.. It's hit me at 9 weeks.. golly.. tell you the truth I do not want to go through the morning sickness again.... it's terrible especially the headache.. I do once awhile still have the headache...

Relax mind and body, think happy, reduce stress, be happy... all those will affect your baby.. the development of the baby depends on you... so just take it easy and take it one day at a time..

Once again.. I am very happy for you.. Wish you all the best... any concerns/questions, feel free to post.. if i know something or any ladies in here can help.. we will help you go through your pregnancy..

Take care

Ok, got it!  There is so much to learn and understand in the process.  

Thank you so much!

Yeah.. Heather5 is correct... congrats and enjoy 9 months journey..

Sounds right to me! Since you did IVF, they will give you a "LMP" of two weeks before retrieval and fertilization, which would make you 7 weeks on July 29.

Hope that makes sense :-)
