Yep, I totally get the logic of waiting to tell gender. We waited around a week and a half before we told anyone. It helped me come to terms with it a bit before telling and then getting the onslaught of comments. Obviously even with a bit of time for me to process it wasn’t fool proof and I’m still dealing with my GD.

My friend said this article helped with her GD. I havent read it yet. https://www.coffeeandcrumbs.net/blog...-for-what-isnt

I just got one off groupon. Apparently any of the sonoline series are great.

Anyone have an affordable at-home doppler they recommend?

I had a dream last night that I had two little girls 😃

Still dont have an appointment for my anatomy scan, but I think it has to be around week 24... About 10 weeks from now which is as long as I've known I've been pregnant for.

Got my numbers back. Tomorrow they will do an ultrasound to see that everything is in the right place and looking viable. Too early for a heartbeat so I'm going things are ok and that they can see something at least. Numbers seem to be doubling according to the calculators out there. Not as much as many others but still going up. It says normal so I guess that is all I can hope for. Progesterone went up to 17, low, but rising. I'll ask doc tomorrow. Excited and nervous

Hi! Hope everyone is doing well. I had such a weird dream I just have to write about it:

I just had a newborn boy but was less upset about it being a boy than that it had a lot of grey hairs. I was pretty horrified about the grey hairs thinking about how kids would make fun of him, then I decided to brush his hair and when I brushed it, the grey went away and he had really pretty hair. Dreams are so weird.

My nausea is finally starting to go away and I feel a lot better, stressed about other personal things in my life though. If it's not one thing, it's another, right?!

I need to go read something inspiring or whatever it takes to just let go and enjoy life.

Lol. That's a strange dream. How far along are you? I assume you don't know gender yet...

I'm excited and nervous. Meeting the doctor in about 2 hours. Numbers are a bit high and just doubling, nothing crazy. Will see what to do with progesterone. And most of all... yikes... just going to see if there is a sac in the uterus. Eeek.

Doc was ok. I'm not a huge fan. It's a new practice. She said hcg was amazing but progesterone was low but didn't offer anything. She seemed under the impression that if it isn't producing enough progesterone than maybe it isn't a viable pregnancy. So I just asked if she could give me and she said sure. Which was weird. What happened to doctors putting in effort. I feel like if I don't google enough and go in prepared, they wouldn't do anything.

Scan was ok, being that I was trained in sonography, I can tell you she was not skilled in it at all. She shouldn't be using a probe just because she went to med school. I was annoyed. But I saw a sac and something in it as she flew by it. So that was a relief. She said it doesnt prove viability and we need to wait. I was thrilled because that is all you should see at 5 weeks. So I started progesterone and I have fx that this will continue. I'm hopeful because my hcg ws never this high. And it explains the strong positive at 9 dpo. Would have definitely been positive a day before. No idea why it's so high though. Kinda scared me too. But I will just keep hoping and praying. I'm starting to get very tired....

The progesterone is now believed to be a placebo (a viable pregnancy will make all the progesterone it needs, and if progesterone is falling that ~may~ be from the body ending a pregnancy that is not viable - not saying that is happening to you, but that is how it happens) but a lot of docs will still give progesterone supplementation to those who request it.

That HCG rising is great and that is the #1 thing. FXFXFX!!

Thank you. I have heard of many who have not been able to carry to term without it. So honestly I just feel like if it's harmless, why not ease a mother's worries. If its supposed to end, I get it, it will. My hcg was 705 14 dpo and over 5k at 21 dpo. So it went up, but not extravagant like I have seen others. But enough for me to be hopeful. But I know, the low progesterone isn't great, so I'm prepared. I was prepared as much as I could possibly be when I decided to sway. My last two sways ended in MC and I know everyone said it was just bad luck, I still was worried. I'm stopping to test and just waiting and not telling people. Only time will tell.
