I havent started my period and i did take two test, but no other signs of being pregnant are there. So I'm just nervous. i feel like I need to take a test every day to make sure it is still postitive. This will be the longest 1 and 1/2 weeks of my life at this point. We have only told 3 people, bosses and a trainer. so if something majorly changes they will know. We are waiting until the offical, yup something is there until we tell everyone. Which is killing me not telling my besties, but if something would happen i dont think i could stand telling it over and over again.
I hope all things turn out well for you NYMom, will be thinking of you.
Eight Ladies and counting....
And continued on playing...

Hard to believe it's been a year since I got my bfp!

We did not hear a HB saw the sac. The sonographer said I was only measuring at 5 wks 2 days but saying that "everything looked fine". But according to my LMP I should be 6w2d. The doctor told me that he is a bit worried and would have like to see a HB. He drew some blood to check my levels. I am on progestrone and told him about the brown discharge I have occasionally and said it could be old "implantation blood" but also said being I am on progesterone we may be "delaying the inevitable". I have not had any red blood to indicate a MC or cramps. I have to sit tight until the results come back. I am very nervous, scared and feeling like I did when we lost our first baby. BUT....from what I read 6w2d can be too early to detect a HB and I am trying to keep positive. My husband God Bless this man cancelled his business trip to Amsterdam which is a quarterly meeting with all the CIO's. I did not even have to say a word, he just did it.) I read countless stories about woman not hearing a HB until 7 weeks. I remember our second we did not hear a HB at 6 weeks not until 7. Our son we did not have our first sono until 7 weeks. So why he wanted me to come in so early is beyond me especially if he knows 6 weeks can be a bit early. The only reasoning for him wanting me to come in is probably because I am considered a high-risk pregnancy..and he wants to keep a close eye on me????? I have to just pray that my HCG levels are good and that its just too early.. So a lot of praying is happening. We had to tell my parents (when we went to pick up our children) because I had been crying and was visably upset. My dad started crying which made it worse for me. My husband is my rock and as always is ALWAYS POSITIVE!! He said all he heard was that it was too early and that implantation may have occurred later which can happen from what I was told by the sonographer. What I heard was "would have liked to hear a HB" and that "I am a bit worried" from my doctor... So he saw it as the glass half full, I saw it as half empty. It's a defense mechanism of mine I have used throughout my life: I always think realistically to prepare myself emotionally for the outcome. So today was a complete let down for me emotionally. I have been on edge all week, waiting for this day hoping to hear a HB and not to hear one just tore open the old wounds from our first. But like my husband says "our family does not give up until all options have been exhausted".
