Some good thoughts please.

Got my fingers crossed for you. I hope it all works out okay!!

:eek:

I hope that the levels double for you. Good thoughts being sent your way.

More good thoughts being sent!

I hope it works out for you.

Good thoughts and good vibes and good wishes zinging their way to you from me!

::crossing fingers::

After having an experience rather like this during my first pregnancy, (multiple scans, uncertain results, more ultrasounds, etc.) I came to feel like sometimes all the technology does nothing but worry us. I am very grateful for good care and medical advances, and all that, but I just had so many times of waiting, hearing “we still don’t know”, repeat tests, wait more, etc. And the whole time nothing was ever wrong and I began to long for the days before ultrasounds.

I hope that doesn’t come off sounding like people should not get ultrasounds or follow Dr’s advice for tests…just trying to say that I know how hard it is to not get answers. And that I hope everything turns out well for you, and that there is a wide range of things happening in these first few weeks and a few days can make all the difference. Really, I know it is hard but do try to not worry about it. Chances are everything is fine.

Could high levels mean possible twins? Even with just one sac, sometimes they are hard to see so early. I couldn’t see anything at my early ultrasound either (6 weeks, IIRC.)

Sending you all the good thoughts I have, honey. Hugs.

Ok…
Better news today.
Beta level 14 thousand and something- so, doubling in less than 48 hours … which is good news.

Sac looks bigger and more properly like a pregnancy sac…which is good news.

But…it’s still empty…possibly bad news, possibly just too early to tell one way or another.

So…back on Sunday for the same merry-go-round again!

We’re going to keep doing this until w see a foetus or a definite ectopic on the scan, or the Betas start to fall, or I start to get pain or bleeding. It’s going to be a pretty stressful week, but I’m being cautiously hopeful (the odds, at least, are in my favour).

I went to work straight after the scan today, I need to keep busy and if I collapse, at least I’ll be in a hospital!

3 people at work know the real reason I took wed and thu off- they’re watching me like hawks in case I pass out, everyone else was asking if I feel better fom my stomach flu!

I’m keeping on with the good thoughts for you and yes, keep busy without overdoing it if you can, rest as much as you can, and try not to worry. Stupid advice, but meant with good intentions…

Hugs!

Definitely in my thoughts too. Fingers, toes and eyes crossed for you!

Hey now, so far so good! I’ll be hoping that signs continue to point in the right direction. Hang in there!!

All appropriate (and iappropriate!) appendages crossed for you!

Good vibs headed your way from Rain City. :slight_smile:

That is some encouraging news. Sending more good thoughts your way.

I will keep you in my thoughts, and cross my fingers that only good things happen.

Back today- saw the nicer of the two docs. We had a conversation that started
“You seem well, the numbers look good and I don’t think this is an ectopic. Do you want another scan today when we probably won’t see anything, or do you want to wait until Friday, when we should definitely see something?”

So I’m coming back Friday.

Feeling much more optimistic…and the all day sickness with weird aversions to certain smells have kicked in with a vengeance.

Will let you all know what the scan shows on Friday.

Oh man, what a roller coaster. IANADoctor, but I work in the fertility care field and hear about this, but I am sure I don’t appreciate the highs and lows associated with the ever-changing set of data and your own body’s changes.

Best of luck.

Good signs.

I am starting to appreciate the ‘surprise!’ aspect of my pregnancy, far more than I did at the time.

I had my first scan at about 6-7 weeks. Kid looked like a peanut.

Apples helped with the morning sickness. YMMV.

Everything crossed for Friday.

These sounds like good signs, especially the nausea. Wishing you the best of news on Friday!

Bumpty bump.

Scan today- bean with a heartbeat inside the sac- all present and correct!
It is hiding in the corner of the sac, apparently that’s why we didn’t see it earlier.

Here’s hoping for an irishbaby sometime in July!

Wooohooo! Sounds like good news. Here’s hoping… :slight_smile:
