These photos are a little blurry but here they are anyway.
Baby A
Baby B
…and here’s both of them. She tried to squeeze them into the same view so one of them is squished. It’s the dark circle in the middle and the half circle on the right. I think.

Holy crap! There’s two in there! And most importantly, they both have heartbeats! One is measuring at 9mm (6w6d) with a heart rate of 127 and the other is 12mm (7w1d) with a heart rate of 147. The doctor I saw today was very pleased but of course, cautioned me about the fact that I [...]

I am (im)patiently waiting for Monday afternoon at exactly 3:30pm when I will find out more about the viability of this pregnancy. I was confident that there was something growing in there all of this week because my boobs were about to explode from swelling and the car sick feeling that I’ve been having 24/7…until [...]

I remember when kate from infertile myrtle was doing the countdown for her first ultrasound. It’s actually quite agonizing. But I know I’m lucky to be here now and I will endure the wait. Things are normal (I think – but what do I know) so far. The last couple of days, food aversion has [...]

Got the beta results today and it looks like I’m doing ok so far. Phew. Another hurdle cleared.
My first ultrasound has been scheduled for October 19th. Nothing to do but eat (apparently lots of fibrous things), sleep and keep on living my life till then. I’m definitely nervous that it could still be ectopic and [...]

My nurse heard my panicked message and called me back this morning and asked me are you still cramping and bleeding? I was lucky to be able to answer, no. Well, technically I’m bleeding but…ok here goes the TMI. I have hemmorrhoids. I’ve gotten it once before and it looks like I have it again…and [...]

It’s only been 2 days since I got the BFP and I already feel it slipping through my fingers. I’ve been cramping quite a bit the last day or so and last night I woke up in the middle of the night having to pee and with cramps. The next time I got up to [...]

I didn’t do jack shit at work today. How could I? I was completely distracted by other new developments in my life. I snuck out of work to go get a blood test to confirm whether or not the pee stick was lying to me. My IVF nurse called me and said my beta was [...]

Wanted to stop taking the progesterone supplements today so I could get my period and start my IVF cycle over so I peed on a stick this morning to be sure that I could stop. I am in shock. I had written this off completely because my IVF cycle had gotten canceled and I thought [...]

Who knew that progesterone suppositories could be so…um wonderful?
1. They make me cramp
2. My nipples and boobs are on fire
3. Panty liner on for 24 hours a day for 14 days because, being a suppository, they have to come out once they are melted
4. EXHAUSTION!
Yay for progesterone supplements!
What did they do to you?
