1st u/s results shows...

Yup~ it's twins. I am in total shock. We got to see the heartbeats but she didn't tell us how fast it was going. We go back thursday for another ultra sound and at that point they'll tell us the heartbeat.

I am not going to stay on the computer as i am sick as a dog. So i'll post more later or tomorrow.

Runs off to puke...

6 weeks 1 day

Growing like crazy, baby is starting to sprout eyes, ears, nose, cheeks and chin. Those little hands and feet- still webbed like paddles- might wiggle by week's end, the heart is beating (almost twice as fast as yours!), and blood is starting to circulate.

The nausea has definitely set in. I haven't thrown up yet but i am constantly feeling like crap and can't eat. I am basically living on crackers & water.

First u/s is tomorrow if the weather stays put. We are supposed to get a ton of snow and the RE is over an hour away. But dh says we'll be there no matter what. After all we have waited over 2wks since we got our bfp. It's time to see a heartbeat!

I am going to ask them for zofran. I'm not sure how sick you have to be to be able to take it but i can't not eat or i'll be starving the baby and myself. I am constantly hungry but the moment i start eating it just feels like it's going to come right back up. Ugh...this is the only part of this whole thing that i've been dreading. But, at least for the moment i'm not puking every 10 mins like my sister was.

I'll post tomorrow night when we get home and let you know how the u/s went. So nervous!!!

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YIPEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The PIO shot is done and guess what?? It didn't even hurt!!! It was kind of hard to pull it back and the oil is hard to get through the needle so i really had to press on it and none of it hurt!!! Oh i feel soooo good about doing that damn shot! You have no idea. I did it an hour early because my nerves were giving me nausea so i just wanted to get it over with.

For those of you who don't know what a PIO needle looks like...

Tonights PIO shot

OMG i have to do it by myself. Dh has to work. I am so nervous to do it as it hurts sometimes. I've been watching Youtube videos of girls doing it themselves like it's no biggie so i'm really hoping it won't be.

Nausea still off and on. When i eat a little (even though that's the last thing I feel like doing) it goes away. Still not sleeping that well although this morning i actually fell back to sleep around 5:30 and woke up at 6:30.

Today i am 5wks 4 days pregnant. Seems so weird to be saying that. Wed i will be 6wks and few days later is my first u/s. I have actually been pretty patient waiting for this u/s. Everyone that knows is asking how many i think are in there and truthfully it doesn't matter to me as long as I see a healthy heartbeat or more. That's why i waited. It doesn't matter how many are in there I just want healthy and i wouldn't see much at a 5wk u/s. One thing i have become during this whole infertility journey is patient!!

Feeling great!

Yesterday i had a really good day. I wasn't sick and i was barely tired until the afternoon. I know alot of symptoms start at the 6wk mark but for now i feel good. My sister (hi Ginge) started getting morning sickness at 5wks with her 2nd one and she was so bad that she was hospitalized for a few weeks. She couldn't keep anything down. She had hyperemisis really bad. Poor thing. Her first pregnancy she was also pretty sick and she has a boy and a girl so i'm not sure the sex of the baby mattered. I'm just glad to be feeling good right now. I am taking one day a time.

People at work are suspecting something. I'm not how but one of them have already congratulated me!!! I denied it of course without actually saying it. I really hope no one asks me. I'm not ready to tell anyone.

This day next week at 3pm we'll find out if this is actually a viable pregnancy. We should see a heartbeat but will prob not hear it. We will also find out how many are in there. I'm just praying for a healthy heartbeat (or 2).

Well i suppose i better get up and go to work. Ugh....Have a good day ladies!!

5 weeks and beta #3

Baby's now the size of an appleseed!
Your embryo, which doesn't look like much more than a tadpole right now, is actually starting to form major organs (heart, kidney, liver, stomach) and systems (nervous, circulatory, digestive). Baby's presence in your uterus triggers production of HCG (the hormone detected by pregnancy tests), which triggers the production of other hormones like estrogen and progesterone, which triggers all those great symptoms you've probably been noticing!

Beta was 7155!!! I asked nurse Greta what it should be and she said around 4000 is what they would be looking for. Progesterone is 33.69. YAY!!!! Greta told me that all the nurses there are so excited and can't wait to see me next week. They are all fighting to do the u/s to see how many babies are in there. I think they agreed to all be in the room if it was ok with me which of course it is. They have all seen my vag so it really doesn't matter at this point. I just hope it's good news. As far as my #'s are looks like we'll be fine. ((praying))

Symptoms - well today i was nauseous alot. I think it may have been nerves though as i am feeling much better now. I hear nerves or stress can trigger morning sickness. I'm very tired today as well but i was awake at 3am because i was so nervous about today. I couldn't eat that much today which was a bummer to me as i like to get all my vitamins in as right now is the most important.

Other than that..not much else to report. We are extremely happy right now and feel very blessed to be pregnant. We have never even gotten a positive pregnancy test so we are pleased with how things are progressing.

Now, for all of you who voted for twins...you might be right. It's freaking me out a bit but due to my age 36 I think i'll be happy enough. Will just have to figure out our finances better. It'll be ramon noodles for for the next few years!!!

Beta #3 is today..

I'm so nervous. I've been up from 3 oclock on. I just don't feel pregnant. I still have the same symptoms but i thought i'd at least feel like i was. This is scaring me.

Oh 12:00 i hope you come quick. I looked it up on betabase and it said 26 days past ovualation (which i would think that's after FET as well) the beta should be around 5000 something.

Anyone got any extra prayers today please send them my way. Thanks!!!
