8w2d

Baby is still there. The tech says the growth from last week to this week is adequate. It's exactly what they were looking for …6mm growth and he's appr 8mm. It took her a while to find the heart flicker, I guess between my fluffiness and the position the baby is in. She was still not able to get the BPM due to this. She did say that she was looking for the rhythm and it looks right…it's not starting and stopping, it’s a constant flicker. I am down about the 12 day difference. As the baby is measuring about 6w4/5d giving me an EDD of 1/17/10, which based on my IUI it should be 1/5/10. Also, my Betas are still wacky. At 6w6d it was 4097 and at 7w3d it was 5602. Betas are still rising. Also my P4 has gone down but he is not concerned with that…which is probably why my boobs don't hurt as much. Overall, the RE was happy w/ the progress and I seem to be the only one freaking out about the 12 days behind.

The correctness of measurement plays a large role and a lot of times, in the beginning, they have a hard time getting CLR measurements. Also, implantation can be up to a week off, according to our RE. So, they probably arent worried at this point, since, from the first measurement, the measurement has done well for the days in between. Deep breathing! This little one is doing well! Congrats!

Just praying that everything continues to go well. I agree with Heather, if your doctor is telling you it's going OK, then it's going OK.

I don't know your doc's m.o., but I'm with Heather: if a doctor thinks things are moving along well, then there are grounds for hope.

But that doesn't change the agony of waiting, checking, fearing something's gone wrong. I'm sorry you're having to go through this, and I hope it all resolves happily soon.
