Ladies,
First, thank you all so very very much for all your prayers, positive thoughts and good vibes. I love being here, not just b/c I may actually get to have a baby in April, but because of you. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!
Now for the update. The u/s went well. I was so nervous, thought for sure that was it last night and barely got an ounce of sleep. Then they put me in a room where the monitor that faces the patient doesn't work. I'm familiar with that room so right away I thought that they thought something was going to be wrong and they didn't want me to see right away. But after putsing around for what seemed like an eternity, the dr. finally announced that she sees a good strong h/b. The h/r was 154. Here's the worrisome part... I'm measuring only 6 weeks 5 days and I'm supposed to be 7 weeks 3 days. So, I'm measuring 5 days behind and I'm very sure of my O. Also, my beta went from 4320 on 8/30, to 9380 on 9/6 to 13500 on 9/9. I don't know what my beta is like today, didn't get the results yet. So, between measuring too small and beta not doubling every 3 some days and my m/s and other symptoms being very inconsistent, I'm still very very worried. I wish I could be thrilled about the good news today and I am but I'm so scared to let my guard down and be devastated once again.
Is it really possible? After 3 m/c's, is it really going to work this time?
Please stick baby stick!!!!!

I wish I could take the mystery away for you!

We are so glad to have you here too.
Sounds like a nice strong HB Alla.
alla-
i think we are lving parallel pregancies right now!
i had a US this AM too.
Alla,
That is a great heartbeat :) And don't worry about your bean being behind. I am 5 days behind too, and the doc said to not worry. The baby can catch up or slow down all through the pregnancy.
(((((ALLA)))))
Bean is still there with a good HB - thats what counts!
