New post: Audrie,tbeards,sarbear11 & anyone else

Hi everyone,
First of all a huge CONGRATULATIONS to Trudi, that is amazing.  I knew it with those levels.  I am so happy for you and your husband.  You did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been laying in bed all day except I walked downstairs to thank my neighbor for bringing dinner overand then just to the bathroom.  I will be in bed tomorrow also and won't return to work until Monday and it is all desk stuff so nothing strenuous.  Ascott was aking about having to lay on the table after transfer for 1-2 hours but my place only has you do that for 5 minutes and then you can pee and go home.  The Embryologist said that once they are in they are in.  I don't know if it is the same everywhere.  I am sure everyone has there own protocal.

I go in for my blood test on the 22nd.  So I will be praying until then.  Everyine keep me in your prayers.

Hugs,
Aleks

LOL!! You are sooooo funny. I was thinking the same thing for a while. Everytime I took a test i thought....."These darn things don't work at all! It can't be just me!"

Audrie: I'm so sorry, but glad that everything is okay.  I'm sure you were scared to death! Just take it easy and take care of that baby!

Everyone: Still on cloud nine. Took a hpt this morning. It was pos of course. I was beginning to think that those hpt tests didn't work. :)

I am so sorry that happened to you today.  I am glad everything turned out good.  My cousin had the same thing at around the same time.  She was on bed rest for a few days and then all was fine and she is 11 or 12 weeks now.  It is pretty common although it is scary when it happens.  Get rest and I will check on you tomorrow.

Hugs,
Aleks

Big congratulations to Sarbear.
This has been areally rough day for me.  I got up and about 9:00 had some spotting, and by 10:00 it was like a full period.  I was just sure I had lost the baby although it was bright red and I didnt have any cramping.  I called the doctor and got right in for an ultrasound.  The baby is still there.  It had grown quite a bit since last week, and the heartbeat was 139 as of 7 weeks today.  I was measuring around 6 weeks 4 days.  They put me on antibiotics and bed rest.  The nurse told me the ultrasound looked really good, and it was probably just the uterus doing some moving around.  It is really scarry to me but she reassured me it is normal in 1st trimester of pregnancy.  I will keep everyone updated and big congratulations to Sarbear, and everyone 5 for 5.  WHOO hooo.

Sarbear11:  I am due about May 2nd.  I was a week early with my daughter so you never know.

Hopefultobeblessed:  What were your Beta numbers.  My first Beta wa s188 on 9 days past embryo transfer.  Then it was 718 on 12 days and today 10,000.  The nurse said excellent numbers and high but she said hard to tell until U/S.  Just want to compare.

I am starting a new post.  I am going to call it New Post for the 5 for 5.
Hugs,
Aleks

What a great day for news today!!!! I am just amazed that we are 5/5! Talk about inspirational stories!! I am just so happy for everyone and how blessed we all are.

sarbear: the websites I look at most are pregnancy.about.com for belly pictures and I am registered at babycenter.com (I think Lexi is too) for weekly email updates, deals on baby stuff and the questions on the boards. I haven't checked out the pregnancy boards on medhelp but will tonight.

WOOHOO EVERYONE!!!!!
