Cycle 1 day 1. Who's with me? *update* It's a girl! Congrats baby_bray!!!

Cant wait for everyone to start testing. Hurry up girls. Lol on my way to the dr. So scared.
 
All done. They aren't gonna do quants. They did a blood test. The girl in the lab was shocked when I told her I got my positive at 7dpo. She Aldo said my blood test came up fast and is betting on twins. She said no possible way I got a digital this early without an elevated hcg. So we Will see. I am guessing one boy. DJ doesn't care as long as we have a baby and the lab girl says one of each LOL. My first apt is jan6. That they treat each pregnancy as a healthy pregnancy and That all the tests wont do anything to change the outcome. She told me to stop stressing that I don't have any medical conditions and to enjoy being pregnant.

That is great news! Jan 6 is not that far away. I have my eight week appt on january 4. You should be around five weeks then??
 
Oh my gosh, twins?! That would be something. Do they run in either of your families?
 
Berdc. .. yeah I will be five weeks. I am really excited. We are only 3 weeks apart. That is awesome.

Moter... no they don't but the MC and my age puts us in a higher chance of having twins. I doubt it will be twins though. That would just be crazy. Lol
 
Hey if you have twins you won't need to have another baby right after this one!
 
mail- good to hear your Dr. appt went well. It kind of sucks that they won't due quantitative HCG test, it would have been interesting to see what your number was!

AFM- My BBs are starting to hurt! I am hoping this means that my progesterone is climbing nice an high! They usually don't start hurting for a few more days.
 
Congrats on everyone who has their BFP's!! I can't believe there is three of you already!

AFM... I'm just not going to think about it, I'm quite depressed about the whole situation as is and am pretty sure this is going to be a happy, surprised filled x-mas. I'm just going to lay low and let what happens happen. :shrug:

Don't worry you could be the forth out of this group to get your BFP. Are you testing on Sunday?

One can dream! I think I'm going to test either Christmas eve or Christmas day and if it's a BFN then I'm just going to leave it until AF is late... I don't want to be miserable all holiday, worrying if the tests are accurate or not.

Earlier this cycle I felt so sure, and now I don't know how I feel on the subject. I know I have a few things that are different this time around... but I don't want to read anything into them.
 
Twinkie... The girl in the lab said that they do look for the quant to double but that in this stage it wouldn't really be a good indicator. That all offices will test but until you hit 8 weeks the quant doesn't really give great insight. She was very informative. This is a new dr for me. The last one was a quack. She does all the labs right there and you get your results within minutes. I thought that was cool. This place does everything right there. Even 4d ultrasound. I am so excited. They probably wont do an us until I am 8wks though. They said that is their standard practice. Unless the dr thinks something is wrong I have 5 weeks. So I see the cnm on the 6th and they will just do an exam and blood work.

Colta... Cant wait for you to test. I am hoping you get your bfp.

I'm hoping too mailcmm... I would love nothing more than to join you ladies in the BFP frenzy (almost worried I'll be the only one still trying by the end of this cycle :dohh:).
I just want to see those two lovely lines, even if one is super light... just two lines. Nothing would make me happier and nothing would make DH happier. But I dunno... I know I've only been at this for two cycles now, but I just can't seem to dredge up any kind of hope right now... :shrug:
 
Great news, Mail! Sounds so positive. I got my positive the day after you. I wonder if it woulda showed the morning I peed all over myself! :dohh: ha!!!

Twins do run in my family and that would be great with us! I turn 36 next year, so we'd love the one shot deal!

I'm so nervous to tell my doctor so I haven't called to begin my quants yet. I don't want anything to happen where he could say, "I suggested one more cycle to wait." you know??? I just don't want to be that woman.

It is totally different being preggo after 2 MC's in a row. We are so paranoid which is not good for anything or anyone!

On that note--I'm off to bed!
 
mail- that is so odd, because my Dr. only does quants before the 8 week mark and then relies on U/S after that... it is so funny how they all go to med school, but all have slightly different ways of doing things.

menb- I would call your Dr. anyway. If you Dr. actually says "I told you so" then find a different Dr.! They are here to help!
 
I feel so much better after sleeping 14 hours. It sucks having morning sickness of the evening.
 
Berdc... I slept for 10 hours. lol That's amazing for me. I am sick too. No specific time of day. Mostly before and after I eat. I am also crampy. Not constant or severe but on and off all day. Hope that's normal. Oh and I stopped testing. lol Seeing the dr has put me at ease somewhat. Still checking the tp though.

Colta... Cant wait for you to test. Tommorow won't be here fast enough.

Menb... I agree with twinkie. If your dr says anything other then congrats you find a new one girl. I am 35 too. We don't have many good eggs left. And none of these drs agree. One says wait and another says go for it. I say you're the mom you figure out what's best for you and baby. That rant being over... lol How are you feeling?

All the others in the tww... Testing time is getting nearer. So excited!!!
 
Menb... I forgot. I am going to change my status to BFP do you want me to change yours or do you want to wait a bit? Let me know girl. And like they told me... Consider each pregnancy a healthy one until you have a problem. We don't help baby if we stress.
 
Well ladies... I'm going to be out of town for the next few days visiting relatives, so I won't be here all that much.
I am going to test tomorrow and the next day and if nothing comes of it, I'm going to forget about it until AF is due..... not even sure if I'm going to bother charting either...
I just want a nice, relaxing x-mas with no worries. So merry x-mas to everyone and I hope everything works out for everyone!
