Well, Finally I have recieved my BFP on Valentines Day. My husband and I have been trying for nearly two years. IVF is our only option due to me having no fallopian tubes. We finally got our BFP with a frozen embryo transfer. Hopefully everything will go smoothly.

Yeh, another blood test, my hcg has tripled to 1087. I'm sooooo happy. I have another blood test in 1weeks time, then a scan at 7weeks. I'm starting to feel quite tired.

Well its been an extremely emotional and anxiuos ride the past few days. We went away for the weekend and thats when everything started to go wrong. Just when we arrived at the wedding I started to cramp and then bleed heavily. We went to the local Hospital and they did an internal and took my HCG level which had nicely increased to 30,000. But unfortunately the bleeding didn't stop. Due to it being the weekend they were unable to do a trans vaginal scan because no one was availabe to do this. My internal showed that my cervix was closed. Yesterday (Monday) we returned home and went straight to my fertility clinic where they did a scan and I saw my little one. It had a nice strong heartbeat and a good size sac. The Dr put me on strict bed rest for a week until the bleeding stopped. However, 2hours after that appointment I started bleeding heavy and passed a medium clot. I'm really scared, we rung the Dr and he said he doesn't think it would be the fetus after seeing such a healthy heartbeat and sac but I'm still in danger of having a miscarriage. I'm totally freaking out. I just want to know if I'm still pregnant or not.

Yesterday we had our second scan and after everything we went through last week our little one is still hanging in there with a nice healthy heartbeat. Unfortunately there is a huge clot to the side of the sac which is the same size. I'm now on bedrest for two weeks and have increased my meds and started an estrogen supplement. The Dr prepared me that this might not be an easy pregnancy. I' sooooo nervous because I want this so bad and I just want things to settle down and for the clot to absorb and break down gently. I;m terrified of the toilet, I read into every ache, pain and twinge. Welll legs crossed it all works out. For now I'm just taking one day at a time.

We saw our beautiful bean which we call FET (frozen embryo transfer). Since he/she was a result from embryo transfer. The scan was great, it measured at 21.8mm. I have posted a picture above. We have been finally discharged from fertiltiy associates and now are under the care of our obstertrician. My clot is still present, the Dr said I may start bleeding again and dispose of the clot. I hope my body just breaks it down and absorbs the pieces. Will see my obstertrician next week, I so can't wait.

yeh, I'm about to hit 9weeks. 3 more weeks to go until I'm out of trimester one. Can't wait to be in trimester 2, I will feel safer being there. Everything is going ok. Still vomiting and dry reaching, boobs are still tender and still having the odd cramp and twinge. I'm back to work after the weekend, hopefully that will make things go faster. I can't wait t get a baby belly. I'm definately feeling bloated.
