Hi, Ladies! Thanks for the good thoughts. They did an u/s and saw a sac. I am really, really early but the sac was in the uterus and not the tube so I am happy. They sent me for blood where I think they took 7-9 vials. I felt hollow after. I go back on Saturday to make sure they are doubling. I know some people like the close monitoring but I am not one of them. I just want to enjoy this and not hear the doom and gloom. I HATED sitting there waiting for the u/s to be done. I go back next Weds which is my birthday and I can't remember from my IVF days if they will be able to see anything more next week. This all feels so surreal.

Yay! Sounds wonderful. That is great that they saw a sac already. I wanted really close monitoring with my first and my second. My third I did, but didn't have any blood taken, just the normal placment u/s and such and he is my angel. With my rainbow I didn't want tons of extras until it was needed, just wanted to stay in bubble and love that fact that I was given the chance to be pregnant again.

Live for today and be happy!!!

AM! I am thrilled for you! I hoped and prayed that it would not be ectopic.

I know it's early, but TODAY you are PREGNANT. Grow, little bean, grow!

Sending you +++ thoughts and belly rubs.

I agree with Tarasue!
Today you are pregnant...and that healthy little bean is in the right spot. One hurdle down...catch your breath and celebrate!

Can't wait for next week! Did they tell you how far along you are measuring? Good luck!
