Guest guest Posted August 6, 2001 Report Share Posted August 6, 2001 Becca, thanks for answering my question twice. I can't believe they said that it was " just the chemicals working. " The line is still there, so I am going to go in to the doc as soon as they open up whether they are ready for me or not. Thanks again. --- rmstiger@... wrote: > Wooohooo! This is great!

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2001 Report Share Posted August 6, 2001 YYYYEEEEEAAAHHHHHHH!! The cramping type feeling is very very normal and it will continue at least throughout your first trimester...not constantly, but from time to time...it is your uterus stretching making a nice comfy home for baby!!! I can't wait to hear what your numbers are today! C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S ! ! ! -AmyR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2001 Report Share Posted August 6, 2001 Amy R. Thanks for telling me that. I feel it just slightly and I keep getting nervous. Unfortunately, the doctor is not in today, and so I have to wait until tomorrow afternoon to get the results. I had the blood work done this morning, but she has to review it before they call me. I am trying to do anything I can to keep my mind busy. Tomorrow afternoon seems like an eternity. I guess I can wait. Thanks again, --- " Richey, Amy M. " wrote: > YYYYEEEEEAAAHHHHHHH!!

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2001 Report Share Posted August 6, 2001 , Oh, how wonderful!!! I'm just catching up on the posts, and I saw your news! I'm sure you had a beta this am--I'm hoping for great results! We've been cycle buddies for a few months, and now we are pg buddies too! I knew you'd be able to cancel that RE appt!

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2001 Report Share Posted August 6, 2001 , Congrat's to you Sweetie... I just read your post. I'm a little (well, a lot) behind on mail, so I'm hoping there is more from you further down. But, I want you to know that you'll be in my prayers! {{{HUGS}}} Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 6, 2001 Report Share Posted August 6, 2001 You mean we all have to wait to hear the numbers?! Ahhhhh! I am sure they are going to be great and will be well worth waiting for....and then you will get to do some more waiting, alot more waiting...say about 9 months worth, give or take a week or two!! -AmyR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 6, 2001 Report Share Posted August 6, 2001 DeeAnn, that is kind of neat- cycle buddies. I haven't canceled my appointment yet. I am waiting for the beta results tomorrow. Kind of silly, but I want the blood work first. That still gives me enough time to cancel. Was your first beta a 42? What was your second? DeeAnn wrote: , Oh, how wonderful!!!

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2001 Report Share Posted August 6, 2001 , 1st beta=42 (cd 27), 2nd beta= 164 (2 days later), 3rd beta= 1400 (4 days later). The drs mainly look for doubling every 2-3 days. If there's less than a 66% increase over 2 days, that's what shows something may be off (though even that is not definitive). Sending you some doubling vibes. x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2 Take care, DeeAnn p. s. I almost wish I had kept the re appt--I think they might be more sensitive in early pg to women who've had eps. Too bad I'd probably have to pay 50% fo IF treatment, even though I'm pg > > Okay, here it goes. I am so overwhelmed right now.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2001 Report Share Posted August 6, 2001 Well put!!!! laura M , I know how it is going crazy waiting to know! They did not even want to do another beta, and wanted me to wait til 8/17 for u/s. I stood up and acted as my own advocate, and they did another beta this am and will do u/s tomorrow afternoon!!! If you let them know you're worried, and remind them of your history, I'm sure they'll accomodate you! Take care, and be sure to get plenty of rest, mommy!

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 Hey a! Congrats on the baby Zoya!! Did you have to have a c-section? My baby has been breech for the past two ultrasounds. I have been seeing a Chiropractor to see if she will budge, but if not I would have to have a c-section b/c with it being my first baby and with the partial SU still intact no one wants to deliver her breech. If you had a c-section what was it like? How has the recovery been? Thanks!

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 Hi - Thanks so much. Zoya did end up turning into the head down position around week 29 or 30, so in the end I didn't need the C-section. Apparently I was the first MA pregnancy at our hospital this year (or at least in some time) that didn't require a C-Section due to breech position - everyone was quite surprised she turned. If she hadn't have turned it would definitely been a C-Section for me as well. Despite the vaginal delivery my recovery was pretty slow due to hemorraging, anemia, retained placenta etc., - my advice to help with recovery is to take all the offers of help you can, esp. for food! One month to go! Can't wait to hear all about Viviana and see pictures if possible!! Best of luck with turning her and with the C- section if you have to go that route. Take care, a Complete SU DD Zoya 8 weeks old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
