Guest guest Posted August 18, 2000 Report Share Posted August 18, 2000 e, Sorry to hear AF showed her ugly face this month. I hope next month is the one for your. I was able to get to the Dr. office yesterday before he left. He even squeezed me in ahead of several women w/ appointments (I actually feel kind of bad about that). Anyway he said everything looks good so far. He said I have a " pregnant " cervix and that the breast tenderness and slight queeziness are very good signs. I had a transvaginal U/S and there was no sign of a gestational sac (sigh...), but both the tech and and Dr. said not to worry, that it is still very early (yesterday was 4wks, 2 days). He did not order another Beta, but said if I wanted one for my own peace of mind before next Friday (when I see him again), I could come in and get one. He just doesn't feel the need as I am not having any ep symptoms. I will have another U/S next Wed. (8/23) and then see the Dr. again Fri. (8/25) and he will order another Beta the next time I see him. All in all it was encouraging, but I don't think I will feel better until I see the gestational sack in the uterus w/ my own 2 eyes. On the upside, I do feel pregnant right now, and I didn't at all w/ my ep, so I am trying to take that as a good sign. Will keep everyone posted.

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2000 Report Share Posted August 18, 2000 Kendall, Gosh I'm glad things seem to be going well for you, I will keep you in my prayers and hope the little one can be seen on Wed., but try to hang in there if they can't yet. I know I will be a wreck like you if I ever get pg again until I see the little one where it is supposed to be. Have they given you an edd yet? Keep us posted okay! My thoughts are w/you and will be waiting to hear from you on Wednesday!! Have a great weekend and glad to hear you feel pg! BTW, what kind of attorney are you? My husband is a tax attorney, very boring, I wanted him to go into crimal law, but he said no way! Kel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 18, 2000 Report Share Posted August 18, 2000 My edd is 4/24/01 (Dr. went by O date from my chart, rather than last AF, as my cycles have been long). I am a Guardian Ad Litem in the Family Court. What that means is I represent the best interests of children in custody and placement disputes and I represent minor parents in paternity cases. I agree w/ your husband about NO WAY on the criminal law (although being a prosecutor might not be too bad). My work can be very stressful, but also very rewarding. It has been especially tough since the ep though. I see people everyday that I don't think deserve to be parents and that makes it hard. Some days it is very hard not to impose my values on other people. I will keep you posted on my progress. I have a feeling it is going to be one very long week until 5/23 and that if I don't see the sack that day I will be a basket case.

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2000 Report Share Posted August 21, 2000 a, I have decided that unless I start having ep syptoms, I am just going to wait for the US. It will be easier on me emotionally to deal w/ it all at once (if I need to) that getting all freaked out if the numbers aren't what I think they should be. Of course if there is still no gest. sack on Wed. or if anything seems not right either then or before then, I will not wait until Friday for the Beta. Will keep you posted of any changes/updates. Thanks for the support Kendall mi pyf wrote: > Kendall, > > I am so glad to hear you made it to the Dr. I personally would go in and > have the betas done the beginning of the week, even though he says all looks > and sounds good I just know how I will feel when we get pg again..especially > if the u/s is too soon to really see anything. > > We will keep you in our prayers ...
