[babywanted556]

This is my 5th IVF for a first child.  
I'm going to have a beta tomorrow, 12.1.09.  Could not wait for one more day.  I don't have any symptoms including sore BB's
Please pray for me.
Thanks

Spotting doesnt always mean you are going to lose the baby. I bled from 7-17 weeks with my son whom I did IVF with.He is now a healthy 13 month old. As far as the numbers go I saw gestational sac and yolk sac at 5 weeks 3 days and a heart beat at 6 weeks 1 day with my son. I was told your beta has to be above 1500 for them to see anything at all.

I have actually been giving myself the progesterone shots. It's easier than it looks. My DH took one look at the size of the needle and almost passed out.  I'd rather take the shots than keep using the suppositories.  Those I find gross, but I guess they are what's helping everything progress along.

KimB19 -- that's awesome!! Congrats! I can't believe at 6 weeks in the baby is the size of a grain of rice. That's so amazing. I hope your MD printed a pic for you.

Kricket212 -- I actually started with my spotting and bleeding last week which was around 15 days post a 5 day transfer. I thought it was the stress of me being back to work and being on my feet, but as quickly as that started, it ended.  I've had no bleeding/spotting today. I'm so happy!

I just had my first spotting episode today 3 days post transfer...did yours start that early?  They just called me to increase progesterone also.  I hope my hubby can handle giving me those shots.  All along I have been going to the office but just cant see paying $25- everytime.

I guess all Doc's are different!  My Dr told me to stop worrying about my beta b/c it should be in the thousands by now (I'm quite neurotic - haha) and to relax.  They started doing the ultrasounds last week (right before 6 weeks) and will do them every week until I go to a "normal" OBGYN, which I believe is at 10-12 weeks.  They say my sac, and pointed out the little grain of rice, aka, Baby!  Tomorrow they hope to see the heartbeat.

I took another pregnancy test last night - just to make myself feel better, b/c I have NO symptoms and still have the occasional spotting.  I think my husband thinks I have lost it :)

Let me know how it goes!!!
