T-Minus 20 hours.
The ultra sound is less than 24 hours away. I can't tell you how both excited and nervous I am about it. I keep feeling like I'm making up my symptoms. I keep feeling like being tired and bloated is because of the meds, not because of a real life baby inside of me.
Then every once in awhile I have flash moment of optimism. I decided to put a poll up and get some blog readers participating in the "fun" (not) of this waiting time. I originally formatted the poll to say, One, Two or None, but my better judgement took over and I'm going to remain optimistic and hopeful. Besides if some rouge reader clicked on NONE I'd probably feel sick to my stomach.
So please give me your best judgement about what you think. To help you with your guessing, here's what I know.
- I feel like there is only one (that's just my mind - I also feel like it's a boy)
- 2 perfect AA blasts were transfered
- My Beta was 681 at 13 days past a 5 day transfer (18dpo)
- I have had no spotting or cramps, just some tugging, stretching feelings
- I am HUGE right now. Seriously huge, but no weight gain, just more than a half pound
- I have no real pregnancy symptoms other than being bloated and really tired.
So there you have it. Vote please! It will entertain me for the next 20 hours.
I voted! But gotta tell you I was surprised to see how many have voted in that category!!!!I can't wait to hear the results tomorrow, and perhaps, we all win!! Best of luck.

I agree, I think that I am having 1 boy as well. I wish you the best of luck tomorrow! I know that everything will be just fine.

I am thinking two! That's a high beta and you are showing already!?
Posted by: MrsLaLa | July 16, 2008 at 04:07 PM
I bet it's one... mostly cause you think it's one. The "showing" is likely not the baby at this point, even if it is two babies. Just loads of fluid and giant ovaries after having done IVF. Heck, I look pg and I haven't even done the ET yet. ;)
And as far as gender goes, I'll stick with your intuition and say boy too.
Can't wait to see tomorrow's post.

It's true what Jill said...those eggs could split into identical multiples!! LOL!! In all seriousness though...I am guessing TWINS!! You had a high beta and you tested positive early on a home test! As for gender...I was convinced I was having a girl and HE is NOT a girl!LOL!! So, who knows. I'll wait to see how you carry the little one in your tummy!
And yes...belly pics will be required!
