I have had the longest day. So glad it is over. Just never got to sit. I won't be up long. Dh is working as a teacher at the university culinary school and he has a night class. I have been on my own for dinner, afternoon animal feeding, homework/bath time/eat your dinner fight, and tidying up for the evening. The crisis tonight was my son refusing to shower because it smelled bad. I am too pooped to move so had him shower in mine. I am sure it doesn't smell bad (his excuses are ridiculous to the extreme... I can't eat this it looks like an alien was my favorite lol he even cried) but just refused to move to check. Lol that is how tired I am. I am so tired right now I briefly thought about investing in a bed pan. Lol anyway, that's all for me...
How is everyone today?
Congrats again Menb.
Colta.... Hang in there girl.
Moter and tv.... Af stats please? When are we expecting the big o.

Also... I have noticed random comments here and there from people who may be watching our journey. To those stalkers you are more then welcome to join in. We are 7 that have been here from the beginning but are always glad for more company. By all means introduce yourself you will be gladly welcomed.
Me too!
I SO need to stay up and work right now, but I just can't. I'm pooped! I wonder if starting a new degree is the smartest move for us right now. It's just that I KNOW I won't be able to for a while after the twins are here. It just seems like now makes sense. ??? I think it would be better if I wasn't in the first trimester--you know? This fatigue is killer! (not complaining, just stating facts!) 
Well, it's not looking good for work. Aaaggghhh!!!

Morning ladies!
colta- I hope your appt goes as good as possible today!
mail- so sorry your OH is away, I don't know how you manage to get all that done!
menb- great news about the appt!
television- a week until O... FX'd for you!
AFM- I am still incredibly tired and peeing a lot. I have been in bed by 7:30 every night this week. Oh and DS gave me a cold I think. I felt horrible last night, sinuses draining and I felt hot, but took my temp and no fever. I am hoping this cold only lasts a couple days.

Good morning ladies...
Well, things are not exactly resolved as of yet. I went and had my bloodwork done, and my Beta HCG came back at 60..... so it went from 32 on the 31rst to 60 on the third (works out to be about 64 hours from the time of day I had my last blood draw to today).
The ER doctor was still not impressed with my numbers... and I can't say I was too happy either. Me and DH had hoped things would be a bit more definitive... either they would go way up or start going down, just so we would know what's going on. So right now we're again stuck in a crappy limbo, praying it's not another ectopic.
I've been scheduled in to see my ob/gyn this morning at 9 (it's 7:45 right now) and see what he has to say... More then likely he'll just tell me my numbers are too low and that he wants to do more bloods later.
So yeah... I'm in the exact spot I didn't want to be... limbo.

Well... I'm back from my appointment..... it went better than expected. 
My ob/gyn looked at the numbers and said that a doubling time of 64 hours was perfectly okay and that the bleeding is probably just due to late implantation bleeding. He's pretty confident that I implanted a bit later then I thought and that... for the moment.... everything is fine/normal.
SO... me and DH are very cautiously over the moon. We're understandably nervous and still on tenterhooks... but for the moment, everything is okay. I'm not even on bed rest anymore, just standard precautions. The Dr said he can't guarantee anything (I wish he could), but for the moment things are okay. I still have a prenatal appointment on the 7th and I have another beta that day as well... so I'm going to be nervous for those numbers. Hopefully they pop up to the 150's-170's.
So that's where we are right now... keep every digit crossed ladies! Hopefully things work out!

How is the bleeding now? I am happy for you that the doctor seems to think all is okay. Fx that Tuesday you number are higher. Will they do an ltrasound that day or wait another week or two?

The bleeding hasn't been all that bad... just some tan spotting mixed in with some CM, nothing too crazy. I haven't had any cramping either, so that's good as well.
I don't think we'll be doing an ultrasound then, my numbers will still be too low to see much of anything. So we'll be taking it easy and seeing what the numbers do... man o man, I hope to god they continue to double!
