so nice to have you all back again! i am kate and i just got my bfp on june 10, you can read about how we got to that bfp here. i have had an ectopic pregnancy in the past so i am extremely worried that this is going to turn out to be an ectopic as well, and since i’m a neurotic infertile i also worry that even if it’s not ectopic there will be no heartbeat or i will miscarry anyways. my first ultrasound is this coming wednesday, three days and we will know exactly what is going on in there, i am going out of my mind waiting. at this point i don’t want to talk to anyone and therefore don’t want to leave my house for fear of running into someone i know and being forced to talk to them, because they will probably ask how all the infertility stuff is going and i’ll have to make up some lie. unfortunately the weekend is almost over and i will be forced back into public tomorrow when i head back to work, lame. anyhoo, that’s a brief rundown of what’s going on right now, thanks for stopping by!

Breathe. I can tell you are going crazy. I have monitoring tomorrow morning to see if we can proceed. Maybe you could go for a drive?

Got your comment…that’s interesting! I know another blogger (who goes to my same RE), and her betas were similar to mine. She is 24 weeks pregnant with twins. Hmmmm….

Congratulations on your BFP and good luck Wednesday! I know firsthand how paranoia stalks the pregnant infertile — I hope you have a trouble-free nine months.

Thanks for the welcome! It is nice to meet you! I can’t wait to read more.

Ooooh. Congrats on your BFP!
Here’s hoping the next 3 days fly by for you…until you receive really good news and some peace of mind.

I hope the next three days go by fast, and that everything goes well with your pregnancy.
I just got my first BFP (well, it was actually barely there) in time to find out I’m miscarrying. So you really have my thoughts with your fears even more than normal.
((hugs))

Sweet! Great news on your bfp! Sounds like you’re IUI #3 was a charm for you as well.

Thank you for leaving a message on my blog. Congrats on the BFP! That is fantastic! Wishing you all the best for a sticky and healthy pregnancy! I hope Wednesday comes fast for you!

NICE, a BFP. I’m doing beta on Wednesday to see how this IVF cycle turned out myself. HUGE CONGRATULATIONS and wishing you a safe & smooth pregnancy!
June 22, 2009 at 3:59 pm
Congratulations on the BFP! I hope Wednesday gets here quickly for you, and that nosy people keep their questions to themselves until you feel like sharing with the world. Happy ICLW to you, too. I’ll be back to hear how everything goes.

praying for a nice flicker on that screen on wednesday

i didn’t do ICLW this week and i am jealous of all your comments!
June 22, 2009 at 4:48 pm
Thinking positive thoughts and sending positive vibes. The wait is unbearable, but is almost over (though it seems like every second is an hour right now). Keeping my fingers crossed that things will be perfect on Wednesday!
June 22, 2009 at 10:56 pm
CONGRATS! I hope everything works out well for you!

You’re almost there! Wednesday is just around the corner!

Congratulations on your pregnancy! Praying that you get to hear your little bean’s heartbeat and see him/her hopping around on Wednesday.
In my experience, these feelings you are having are very natural. Well, I had them, too. My only suggestion is to try your hardest to not allow them to sap the joy out of being pregnant. You have so much to celebrate! (I wish I would have been better at that.)
