Tubal Reversal ladies, just moved from WTT!!!

Happy Birthday to your little guy, Mommabrown, and thank you for the Congratulations.

I think that once I see a beating heart in the uterus, I will finally relax. I keep getting full, throb-like twinges in my left side from time to time, which makes me panic all over again. I'll know soon enough.

Despite my fears, I went and set up a baby registry today, not for people to buy me things, but more to keep track of what I need and what I get. I'm pretty much starting all over. I still have my bassinet and crib, but everything else, I need to buy again. I found that I was VERY drawn to the boy items. I didn't scan a single girl item. Maybe it's just wishing thinking and wanting this baby to be a boy, but when I did a registry for my youngest, before I found out she was a girl, I was very drawn to girl items and scanned only girly things, so maybe?
 
Good luck Momma!

Angie, hang in there girl! At least they will have to give you progesterone or something. I know that's little consolation. ((Hugs)) and prayets that this one is a sticky bean !!!

Great numbers, Brandi !

Afm, I am 2 days late on an unmedicated cycle but woke up to spotting, which will prob be af in a few hours. :( I decided to save the hpts for another month.
 
Sorry CJ. My cycle last month was like that. I hate how our bodies are.

BrandiC. I hope that you get exactly what you want. I looked at boy stuff and DH looked at girl stuff...We had a girl. So I don't even go by my intuition at all.
 
Sorry CJ. Hope that bfp come for you soon.

I'll be happy either way. The fact that I got pregnant as quickly as I did is a miracle in itself so as much as I want a boy, I'll take a healthy baby...boy or girl. I'd love for my son to have another boy in the house though. Poor kid is surrounded by 3 girls, lol so it'll be nice for him.

Levels this morning are up to 112. My hospital is filled with a bunch of insensitive idiots. Will give that full story when I get home.
 
CJ, sorry about your spotting. I might be right there with you tomorrow. I am still not convinced my tests are 'genuine' positives and not just residual hcg. All things come about with time, and my time for uncertainty will be over tomorrow.
One thing that has been strange this cycle is that my fingers have been swelling. Every morning my fingers are a little swollen.
I took a test this morning and the lines are still there but they are not darker than yesterday. I think I will pray if I have a next cycle that I not have any more that are positive tests all month.. To have those double lines all month and then have a period is hard.
Well, it's Sunday and I am gonna hang with my men. Plus, I jumped on this computer even before I read my Bible and that is a no-no.. :winkwink:

Have a great Sunday Ladies! God bless!
 
What a bad, bad, bad, bad day.

Story is here...I can't type it out again:

Brandi, er docs are idiots! No way anything could be seen this early. Usually after your numbers hit 1500 they do an u/s.
 
The urine test the first doctor gave me, he came back and told me to prepare myself to lose the pregnancy, and that the urine test was "borderline positive".

Google is not my friend right now. And as much as I want to think positively, it's stressing me out to do so. I'm thinking that in case I do lose this pregnancy, I might announce it now, asking for thought and prayers, even though I know it's gonna piss some people off.
 
They cant see anything on ultrasound till your levels hit 1500 they are idiots at the hospital.
 
The hospital here is filled with a bunch of incompetents...like the doctor who, 6 years ago, almost killed my daughter. She had a severe case of gastroenteritis and was having diarrhea 17 times a day, puking, wasn't eating or drinking, and finally, on day 5, stopped peeing. We took her to the hospital 3 times only to be told it was pass and that she looked fine because "her eyes look moist". She was 6 months old.

Day 5, she started passing lots of green bile and so we took her back and demanded a pediatrician instead of the emergency room doctor. It took them 20 minutes to get a vein into her foot. She cried the whole time and not a single tear came out. It turned out that she was so severely dehydrated that her veins had collapsed. She would have died within 12 hours without the IV fluids. And after a day on the IV, she was back to normal.

No offense but they shouldnt have ever even done an ultrasound due the fact it wouldnt show a sac even at this stage it would only cause more concern.
 
Well, I know the first idiot doctor had told the OB, and the ultrasound tech, and the second doctor that I was 5 weeks, so that's probably why. It would also explain why the OB was coming down to give me something to terminate the "pregnancy", when they didn't see anything in the uterus. I'm glad the OB asked me when my LMP was because when I told her and she realized I wasn't even 4 weeks yet, she was visibly upset at getting the wrong information.
 
ER Doctors are idiots Brandi! Your numbers are great. We could just barely see a sac at 5w1d so don't worry. Most Drs only do 2-3 betas 48 hours apart, then betas a week later, and then wait for the 6 week mark for US. Your pregnancy sure sounds like a viable pregnancy. DOn't let the idiots at the Er get you down. :hugs:

AFM, I am on CD11 and am having O pains on my right side which is my closed side. I am ok with that because I will be with Miguel next cycle so we need to O on the left side then. I leave Saturday to go back to Mexico! :happydance:

I did the HCG diet and just finished phase 1. I lost 29 lbs in 1 month! I am now in the stabalization phase so I can eat normal, but no starches or sugars. I dropped a size and a half. If we don't get a BFP before January, I will do another round of the HCG diet. it is not the safest thing in the world, but I am under a Dr's care and on multi-vitamins. You can do it for 6 weeks, but I only did it for 4 weeks. I will do 4 weeks again next time too. My goal is to lose another 25 lbs. I want to be a size 10.

We plan on doing IUI in MArch, April, and maybe May. If no baby, we will do IVF in September more or less.

Brandy, I am glad to see the babies are doing great!! :hugs:

CJ, I am sorry you are spotting. Hopefully, AF stays away and this is just normal early pregnancy bleeding. :hugs:
 
Well, I know I sure feel nauseous this morning...whether from pregnancy or from stress, I don't know. I'm really trying to think healthy in-utero thoughts, and keep talking to Freckle tell him/her Mommy loves them and to stay stuck in the uterus so I can hold and love him/her in a few months time. Corny?

Thank god I have to work today. Maybe it'll distract me. The next two weeks are going to be the slowest two weeks ever.
 
The fertility clinic wanted me to come back today for another draw. Based on what the levels were when they drew them on Saturday morning, they should be 141. Based on yesterday's, they should be at least 168.

The OB wanted me to bring the ultrasound report to the fertility specialist today and let him know what is going on in there. Should I even bother, or should I just carry on my little way and ignore yesterday's fiasco? The gas costs driving to and from the clinic for 5 minute blood draws are getting expensive too, lol. Anything for a healthy Freckle though.

I'm cd2. Last month was not my month :( Glad you are heading to Mexico! So glad you have a plan sweetie!
 
Had another blood draw this morning and I should have those results in about two hours. I also asked them while I was there what my progesterone was like.

So here's what I have so far:

11dpo 9:30am hCG -16.70 Prog - 14
11dpo 12:30pm hCG - 17 Prog - Not tested
12dpo 8:00am hCG - 70.48 Prog - 17
13dpo 6:00am hCG -112 Prog - Not tested
14dpo - Still waiting.

Seem good?
 
Okay, they just called back with the results.

My hcg levels today, 14dpo, was 200!!!! It's even higher than it should have been based on yesterday's levels, and my progesterone is up to 19!!!!

I'm starting to feel more confident that this is a sticky baby in the right place! My ultrasound is booked for December 5th at noon!!!
