[ashknowsbest]

I know I missed a lot, been taking some time to myself but thought you girls would like to know that we're doing out FET with our 2 frosties June/July. There's more in my journal if you're interested in what happened at the WTF appointment.

[MoBaby]

Sweet! Congrats! See knew everything was great!

Im the re so I can discuss the results of the study... I'll probably be here for a little bit as I'm not scheduled so I'll update in a bit. In feeling a little nauseous and "drugged" still as they used a different med post procedure

Sweetness that's amazing!! congrats!!


Everyone else.. so I got my second beta today after my first amazing one,, and it looks as though my hcg level isn't doubling anymore.... She said that my sonogram looked great and that they are happy my numbers are still rising, but of course I'm being paranoid after the last MC... so my first beta was at 12dp5dt= 777......and today's beta at 17dp5dt= 3706. I was expecting at least 4500.....but who am I to expect anything? Am I being over scrutinizing or should I be worried.. please be honest ladies... I can take it!

 

[MoBaby]

Babyd I would not worry because thy slow down a bit after a certain point and according to count down to pregnancy it is 48-72 hours after 1200-6000. I think you are okay if u/s was good and if your u/s was fine i think you are okay

Welcome back, Ash. I hope this is your lucky cycle.

Sweetness: congratulations! On the twins and the puking

BabyD: my RE doesn't do betas beyond the first two, and certainly doesn't do them when youre already doing u/s. I think the doubling is supposed to slow as you reach the high numbers. At this point, we just have to wait for our 2nd ultrasounds to know how things are going. I know that sucks (I'm struggling through the 13 day wait myself). Fingers crossed and hugs.

Thanks sooooo much ladies. I just woke up. We are really excited. Next ultrasound is in 2 weeks.

Baby- my fourth beta didn't double and I had a great us today!!!! That number looks great!!!

2girls- we had a good idea so not too shocked

Hope everyone else is doing ok. Will do personals tom thanks again!

 

[L4hope]

BabyD, at this point I think the ultrasound is more telling than the beta numbers. Since you are at 5w1day I think that your ultrasound is fine. My first ultrasound was 5w5d I think and they could see gest. sac and yolk sac and possibly but not sure fetal pole. Next week will be great as you will be able to see heartbeat by 6weeks for sure. The 5 week ultrasound, while nice to have and see things going on in there, just tends to make us worry. Hang in there girl, next week will make you feel soo much better!!

 

[BabyD225]

Thanks all... i wish numbers could just be amazing for once and not borderline! I feel like my patience and heart are being tested.... now the dreaded wait until the next sono.....

(realized how long this was as I was typing....SORRY!!)

Okay I am home now so I can update. I currently have no pain from the procedure. Just some spotting. I am kinda mad though because they gave me an injection of demerol right in recovery so I am still feeling it! And I was extremely naseous But I did clear up the anesthesia issue. The procedure was posted with general but the RE only wanted heavy sedation. What happened is a new person at his office is booking the surgery and she booked it with the wrong anesthesia. Easy issue to clear. The CRNA giving me the drugs was upset I questioned it but she agreed if I could get by on less its fine.

So the RE thinks I am crazy I think (and the nurses). About 2 hours or less after I left the surgery center I saw RE. I asked if I could come go over the results if he wasnt busy and he said no problem to come at 4pm b/c he would be finishing up with his last patient then. I felt fine except for the effects of the demerol still (like if you take too much cold medicine). I also thought the nurse said something about something DH was saying and I said oh I would smack him but then I realized she was talking about the RE and lets just say I am embarrased. The nurse said she could not believe I was there so soon after surgery. I told her I had no pain and was good to go and I recover very quickly.

Findings of hysteroscopy: RE didnt want to find anyting major and he did not. He found a band of maybe scar tissue just after my cervix that extended all the way from top to bottom. He missed it on saline u/s because it was literally just at the very top of the cervix. He said he thinks it may be a congential defect or maybe just unusual scar tissue but he removed it. It would not have caused issues with pregnancy but it could potentially affect catheter placement of the embryos if the catheter went towards that (So far so good though). He also found another area of scar tissue that was removed. Possibly a big polyp in the scar tissue but wont know until pathology. Found an area of unusual tissue that when he cut it had some blood behind it and he took that out. A unusual finding was some calcifications in my uterus. He believes this is the area where the embryo tried to implant. He removed the area. And also a tinsy tiny little polyp. I mean tiny. All this was sent to pathology and shoud have results in about 1 week but nothing major he is concerned about. Nothing he found today would hinder implantation. I told him before the surgery that I am an unusual person so I am sure he would find something unusual and sure enough!

So pretty easy procedure all in all. Hopefully this biopsy helps things out and I get pregnant in just a little over a month.

I'm glad the surgery went well, Mo. And I really believe that the biopsy helps. Good luck!

Well ladies on the way to the doc DH was driving and I threw up good thing I had a Walmart sac. Anyway. We have fraternal twins! Saw both heartbeats ultrasound tech said this preg already looks better then the other one.

Wow congrats!!!

 

[Anxiously]

Mo, I'm glad everything went well. I was actually frustrated when they found nothing during my hysteroscopy. I guess I was really hoping to hear that the doc found and removed the cause of all my issues in that procedure. I hope that after removing the scarring tissues and polyps, you'll get pregnant in no time!
