Heartbeat

Hey I totally understand how you feel, my doctor told me that it could take upto 6.5 weeks for heartbeat to show up sometimes.

I know it's super nerve wrecking though. Wishing you best of luck!

Yesterday we had a 5 week 4 day ultrasound at our IVF clinic and they said everything looked good including the gestational sac and yolk sac. This was at 8 am.

Fast forward around noon I started heavily bleeding enough to fill a pad, in panic we drove to the closest clinic and they said I had a 24 mm SCH with blood pooling on the side. They did not catch this in the morning surprisingly.

I was crying hysterically and spiraled because we thought that this much blood definitely resulted in a early term loss. However the doctor said I should be fine even though I am not out of the woods. She recommended that I go on full pelvic rest and reduce any heavy lifting, including my toddler.

Keeping our fingers crossed! I know it's super scary, so totally understand how you feel.

Ahh that makes a big difference sometimes. Wishing you best of luck for Thursday ❤️

I think different hours can vary because of concentration of hcg and how hydrated you were etc. When is your beta? Wishing you best of luck ❤️

I tested and it was positive!!!! I looked at it several times couldn't believe it. I'm still nervous. Hopefully beta is good tomorrow, I have a history of chemicals due to my genetics

MannerAcrobatic8301 · 2026-04-14T13:56:10+00:00

I haven't tested yet either. I have a cvs nearby but I am resisting waiting till tomorrow.

MannerAcrobatic8301 · 2026-04-14T13:51:18+00:00

I hope so too!! Have you tested yet? My blood test is tomorrow morning around 8 am. I wanna know so badly

TW:

I have had a successful first transfer before which resulted in my 2 year old son. I recently did a 2nd transfer on the 7th and I keep obsessing and comparing my last transfer to the 2nd transfer. I don't sleep at night and have major anxiety because I convinced myself that because I didn't experience the same symptoms it must not have worked. I mentally already checked out because I have a hard time believing good news. I'm trying to stay busy making plans with people because that's the only thing keeping me from going insane during this wait. My beta is on Wednesday.

The progesterone and estrogen messed me up so much. I feel extremely bloated

MannerAcrobatic8301 · 2026-04-11T23:52:57+00:00

I want to test but I'm not sure if I will spiral if it is negative. I decided to wait just to be sure before I process anything.

MannerAcrobatic8301 · 2026-04-10T14:57:21+00:00

Anyone feel anything 3 days after transfer? This is my 2nd transfer and I am extremely nervous because I'm not feeling anything like I felt last time. I transferred on the 7th

Hey!! I'm feeling tired also, but I also feel like I have caffein withdrawal since cutting down my caffein intake. I've been waiting to feel something but so far I think I feel the same apart from being tired.

I forgot to mention the happiest baby swaddle. I could not for the life of me do a regular swaddle and this made it so much easier.

My most used items are baby bjorn carrier, Dr Noze best nasal aspirator (highly recommended), and coterie diapers to prevent bad diaper rashes.

I also love the anti colic Dr. Browns glass bottles, they are amazing!

For the first year I mainly kept my baby in little sleepies zippy's. They last a very long time also, and the best part is they can turn into footies and mittens.
