So, will you have your beta numbers back
today or do we have to wait?
How are you feeling? Are you still taking
the prometrium?

Hey there
I just got back from the lab....they will
call with my beta numbers today.
I am sick with a doozy of a cold.
Yesterday I came home sick from work with
a fever. Coughing, sneezing....I had to
stand in the shower for 20 min to warm
up...I couldn't stop shivering. Do you
think all this coughing and sneezing could
dislodge the embryo?
I'm scared.....
I'm still taking the prometrium until the
clinic tells me to stop.
I'll post my numbers as soon as they call!
Thanks for the follow-up Christy

I can't wait to hear what they are!! Maybe
you have 4 little ones in there. Wouldn't
that be crazy!?!?! Lol, just kidding.
No, the coughing or sneezing wont dislodge
anything. However, you might pull a
muscle. Everything is stretching in there
as it is, so when you contract all the
muscles (like for sneezing) it might put a
lot of pressure on them. So, if you feel
some sudden 'pulled muscle' feelings, try
not to panic, that is probably exactly
what happened.
They say a lot of women get a cold early
in pregnancy because there immune system
is...confused? It's goes from fighting the
little one to protecting it, and you're
just left out in the cold.
I would tell the doctor though. They might
want to test for infection and call in an
antibiotic. But, I hope you feel better
shortly!!

Thanks for saying that...cause I have
these weird cramping feelings...stretching
and pulling...and it makes me nervous.
The nurse from the clinic called and she
said "I've got an early Christmas present
for you..."
My beta number is 185. She said that was
exactly where they expect it to be.
My ultrasound is scheduled for Jan 9th.
How many heartbeats????
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Hi MG
They count retrieval as "ovulation" day,
so by that measure I'm 15 days dpo, or 12
days post transfer.

Wow! Your number is almost twice as high
as mine was at that point. Then it tripled
in two days. I'm so happy for you! I could
jump up and down if I didn't think it
would make poor Brina fall out LOL!

That seems like a pretty good beta to me!
Man I might explode befor the 9th! Is dh
starting to accept things? Or is he still
waiting to get excited?
I think it's time for you to introduce
yourself over in the Pregnancy Forum.
Because you're PREGNANT!!!!

I'm due Feb 8 but at this point she could
be here anytime. I started going in to
preterm labor at 30 weeks-really before
that if you count all the times I had
contractions before then and my doctor
shrugged them off. I was dilated 1 cm and
50% effaced then too. I'm 33 weeks now so
there's not telling how far dilated I am
now. I know the pressure has gotten
horrible though and that she's dropped yet
again.

Wow, mg, sounds like you're getting pretty
close. I heard first kids are usually
late, but I'd be very surprised if you're
late.

You're telling me. I was up until 5 this
morning with horrible contractions. They
finally went away. If they start up again
though I'm going in to L&D.

Brina is fully developed?

She's pretty much fully developed, it's
mainly her lungs that I'm worried about
it. While she would more than likely be
fine and have a short hospital stay I
don't want her to have to be put through
anything with the NICU. Full term is 37
weeks so it would be best for her to stay
put that long. If she could just make it
to 35 weeks I would be happy. That would
put her being born early January. I just
don't know if she's going to hold out that
long though.
She does move alot. She's not kicking like
she used to but that's because her
quarters are starting to get kinda cramped
in there. She does like to stick her butt
and feet out and leave a little lump on my
belly though. LOL! It's really cute but
hurts like heck. I'm not going to complain
though because I love feeling her.

Well, I hope she doesn't spend any time in
the NICU. I hope she comes with you when
you leave the hospital!
