Very nervous about my ultrasound today. But the worst part is they have changed their policy so you have your ultrasound today but have to wait and go back for another appointment tomorrow to get the results.

[Aimeehug]

Thanks SLF- thats good to know. Im in a healthy BMI. I could lose 15 lbs I think before I would be underweight. So I dont want to lose too much, but hopefully it gets better soon. I sent DH to get me some boost to help. And Ive made a couple smoothies. They seem to be ok so far.
Im taking that same dose of diclectin. 1AM 1 lunch and 2 PM.

36-good luck today. How frustrating they cant just tel you the results right away! Hopefully you can see tour little bean and that will be a little reassuring until they can give you the results.

Good luck 36. 😊

Was supposed to have an appt tomorrow but after the ultrasound I was told I need to see the nurse. I knew something was up as Im like why do I need to see the nurse if Im seeing the doctor tomorrow. Im seven weeks tomorrow but heart rate is only 86 and should be 150 they said so Im guessing that means Im going to miscarry soon.

[Aimeehug]

I hope thats not true 36. Ill be thinking about you. Please keep us posted

36 I hope everything is going okay for you and maybe they just want to change your meds. Fingers crossed for you hun. I will be keeping you in my prayers.

Praying for you 36.

36..I am crossing my fingers for you!! Good luck to you and your little bean!

36- praying for you!

Well, I think I am next in the group to have a scan. My appointment is tomorrow at 2:00 pm.  I'll be exactly 7w. They'll give us the results on the spot. 

Very nervous as you can imagine, especially with so little symptoms (a little sore boobs, out of breath easily, some cramping, and that's about it).

[36andwantbaby2]

Good luck soso. Im waiting in the clinic now so I know how stressful it is. In my heart I know its over for me just hoping it doesnt take forever for my beta levels to go back to zero cause last time I miscarried it took like four months. Time is not on my side as Im 37 and might see if I can convince my husband for another cycle. Need to find the cash.

[Seems like forever]

Praying for you 36. I hope they can give you better news today.

Soso im with you I have my scan tomorrow at 9:45am. Ill be 7w2d.

[soso43]

thank you 36. Sorry you're going through this, but as they say: it ain't over till it's over. As for your age, you really shouldn't worry. You still have a few years, and this coming from me who turned 44 last week.  we did go to Barbados to keep the cost down. we paid half what we would have paid here in Canada for donor egg ivf. So there are options. If you don't get positive news today, just take the time to heal and weigh the different options when you're ready. Big hug.

SLF: I didn't realize we had our scan on the same day. Finger crossed for both of us!

Yep. No heartbeat today. Supposed to try to see if will miscarry naturally. Ive grieved yesterday so today Im looking to move forward. I have day 6 3cc and 3bc left. My doctor is usually against double transfers but he said he might consider doing them together. I dont want to have to pay like $4000 to transfer crap embryos. Rather have that money go to a new cycle.

Im so sorry for your loss 36. Hoping that your beta drops quickly and you can move forward quickly. Praying that your next cycle is successful.

Im heading home from my clinic now. We have a 2.5 hour drive ahead of us filled with non stop construction and its raining 😥

But things went well. Im measuring 1 day behind at 7w1d but thats normal for me so no one is worried. Hb was 144 and the doctor couldnt see any reason for the bleeding I had or anymore thats visible. He wants me to go back in 3 weeks for another scan and for me to start getting off some of these meds. I see my OB next week in my home town. Ill see him often because Ive had a lot of complications in the past which is why he wants to see me at 8 weeks.

Soso I hope you get to see a beautiful strong hb today at your appointment. 😍

I am so so sorry 36...I know there isnt much I can say to make this any easier but please know Im thinking about you and sending you all kinds of sticky thoughts for your next cycle.

SLF that is excellent news! Glad you had a great scan and I hope the wait until your next one goes quickly!

Soso Im thinking about you and really hoping your scan goes well today!!

I had my 1st ultrasound at 6w1d a couple of weeks ago and all was good. I am gearing up for our next ultrasound on Monday when I will be 8w1d. Its tough to actually believe everything is still going well without any nausea but I keep telling myself I didnt have any before the last ultrasound either and all was well. I also had my first midwife appointment this week.

Congrats SLF! I am happy and I am sure everything will be perfect at your scan next week. 

JYO. good luck at your scan next week too! 

 

well, i didn't have many symptoms but I am expecting twins!!  they saw two sacs with 2 strong heartbeats, and both are measuring exactly 7 weeks. My clinic doesn't tell the exact heartbeat numbers when they see it strong on the monitor. My husband was so in shock that I had to drive us home. He is so excited he called his parents even though we had discussed waiting until 12 weeks.(they live in France). 

They said we'll have to do another scan in 2 weeks.

Wow! Did you only transfer one? Thats really exciting. Hooray for good news!

[Aimeehug]

SLF and JYO glad to hear some more good news.
I cant wait until my next scan Monday. I hope things are better with my placenta. I can see why women buy home Dopplers. Its hard to wait for appointments!
