Guest guest Posted August 3, 2000 Report Share Posted August 3, 2000 Cheryl-You're not too far off from 140 now. Good for you! You must look terrific! I'm so glad you don't hassle your daughter about her weight. I know my Mom was only " trying to do what was best for me " . We are very close now though. I think she also (like most women in this society) had her own issues with body image that she transferred to me. I think all you can do is respect your body. Try to eat moderate amounts of good food. Eat when you're hungry, stop when you're full, exercise, and accept the results. Anyway, thanks for the response. Take care!

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2001 Report Share Posted September 4, 2001 Thanks for sharing your personal experience with the monitor...good to know that it can shift so much from cycle to cycle. I was kind of freaking out when I hit day 18 and was still showing " low " fertility and was VERY relieved to finally see the shift to " high " the next day. I ovulated on CD 22 or 23 so I guess that will give me about a 36 day cycle this month as well, assuming I have a 14 day leutal phase...that means September 16th will be CD36 for me so we'll see whether old AF shows up or not!! I'll keep you up-to-date! Gwen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 14, 2001 Report Share Posted September 14, 2001 Cheryl, always good to hear from you and the little one, hope you will make it up to week 40, keep my fingers crossed! Keep us update, please! And don´t overdo it from now on even though you are allowed to be active again, promise? Corinna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 2, 2001 Report Share Posted October 2, 2001 Thanks for your message Cheryl! I really appreciate hearing from someone who used the monitor for a while. I was under the mistaken impression that I would seem the same basic pattern each month except for some variation in the length of the follicular phase. Good to know that it is okay and normal to have varying results each cycle. I PROMISE I will always test when a test is requested from now on! Thanks again. How are you feeling? Still doing well I hope! Cervix still closed? Gwen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 3, 2001 Report Share Posted October 3, 2001 So glad to hear everything is still going well. 5 pounds already? Wow! She is going to be big! You must be so relieved to have " made it " . To have carried this little miracle even with the strange cervical condition and contractions! The wonders of modern medicine! Glad you have been able to increase your activity level, must feel good to be able to move around! Hang in there and keep us up-to-date when you can!

Guest guest Posted October 17, 2001 Report Share Posted October 17, 2001 Thanks for the beta number feedback...that looks about right. I have been doing some internet research (there's a big surprise huh?!) and have found ranges ALL OVER the board described as normal....they literally range from 3 iu/L - 3,882 iu/L all falling within the " normal " range for 15 DPO (4 weeks and 3 days since LMP). My doctor's office considers anything less than 5 to be " not pregnant " so if I get any double-digit number I will be happy and then watch for the " doubling " we all hope for. I did a bit of research on ectopic pregnancy as well and found that with an ectopic, levels will only increase an average of 66% instead of the normal 100% every 36-48 hours. SO, I will hope and pray that I get nice doubling of whatever number I start out with. She said she would call me before lunch time tomorrow so I'll let you know what I find out!

Guest guest Posted October 17, 2001 Report Share Posted October 17, 2001 Hi Gwen, I had a 16 with this pregnancy at 14 dpo. And this baby is kicking like a champ. I call him/her grasshopper. So, don't be too concerned about where the number starts, it's how it doubles is what matters. Good luck! Tell the truth, have you peed on the stick a third time yet?
