Ahhh, still no answer on how many babies in my tummy =0) But hopefully I will find out on friday when they do a vag. ultrasound!!! I did find out my progesterone is 14 which I was thrilled to hear that and not the 1 or 2 I've heard so many times. I was still not comfortable w/ it so I'm starting prog.suppositories tomorrow. They tested my hcg and the nurse just called and said its well over 47,000. Praise the Lord! I'll update on the baby/babies friday. I hope everyone is doing well.

So I got to see one beautiful baby with a heartbeat of 115/minute today. The ultrasound tech asked if I had pain in my right side and I said "yes, sometimes a stabbing pain, but not all the time" and asked her why. She said she has to have the radiologist look at the pictures. She did also ask if I have pain in my uterus bc I had some "free flowing fluid" in it. She said it could be from a cyst that burst. Oh AND she said it is "possible" that I "could" have an etopic and regular pregnancy- though she wouldn't tell me what she was seeing on the right side- though she looked at that side for along time switching screens back and forth. I don't have a clue about cysts nor etopic pregnancies. I read online it can be dangerous if you don't get help soon enough. I'm pretty frustrated at this time. I'm going to call the dr. on monday, since I don't have an appoint. for 4 more wks. I really thought I was going to get some answers today. Just another weekend to get through.

Mine were that high and I think higher and im expecting twins! So I dont think yours are too high. I thought the same thing before I found out it was twins. My dr said molar pregnancies are numbers that in the 100,000 range that early and your no where near that. So I wouldn't worry about that....

But thinking you might have more than one hun! I sure hope so!! More twin buddies!!

Oh how awful for u having to spend the whole weekend wondering whats happening. I looked it up (as im sure u did), and one 'normal' and one ectopic pregnancy is called a heterotopic pregnancy, but they are really really rare, 1 in 30,000 if uv not had fertility treatment. It sounds like u were told alot of possible options.. I dont understand why if theyre going to list possibilities of what it could be why they cant give the results while ur there, surely they realise how nerve wracking the waiting is??

So, how are u feeling now? Bet u cant wait for monday. Are u based in America or the UK by the way?

Im sorry u didnt come out with clear answers, but how lovely u heard LOs heartbeat

Hope the waiting passes quickly this weekend

xx pps- is it definitely not twins?

Hi! Thanks so much for the note and info. So I got a return call from the dr.'s office today and they said that the baby looked great and they didn't see anything abnormal.
