Wow - thanks so much everyone! Ya'll are the best! It's been such a long journey I think I'll be nervous until I go into labor.

The Dr called & I have a UTI. Could be one of the reasons I felt weird. I started macrobid this afternoon. How in the heck did this happen?

I was instructed to stay off my feet until further notice due to the OHSS, so I'll be laying on the couch working this week. Good thing DH isn't traveling so he can wait on me. hehe.

Jen CONGRATS!!! I am so happy for you!!! (The UTI is probably from the catheter they used to drain your bladder)

Kristy - that would make sense. Things felt weird, but I just assumed it was a side effect from the ER or ET or something. I am looking forward to the meds kicking in.

I had stomach cramps again this AM, but they seemed to go away as I ate ( I made myself eat in hopes it would help). I tried to sleep propped up last night & I guess I slept wrong b/c now I have a crick in my back & can't look left. I am just a mess! Is it hot or cold that is good for this?

I have a Dr appt tomorrow to make sure I am not having any gallbladder issues - they freaked me out about that.

I just called for my beta #s, but they don't have them yet. I can't believe it takes 24 hours!
I can't believe I have been knocked up for 24 hours!!

I hope everyone has a good day!

Jen that is good!!! I think I had my first beta done around 13 or 14 days post transfer and it was 88. Both of your little ones might have taken. I dont think you can assume though based on numbers because I remember Rebecca having really high numbers and she just had one little bean. I cant wait to hear more numbers!!! So far so good!!!!!

So its been a long day. Last night, we decided to head to SA due to the discomfort I was having. I couldn't eat anything after midnight & I was up at 6 (& I barely slept). The stomach cramps were unbelievable and I got sick in the car on the way down. Miserable. Long story short, they drained the fluid from my abdomen- 2 liters. They had to put me under & it was like another retreival. I feel so much better now. I can bend over & my stomach muscles aren;t as stretched so I can walk. I am now on real deal bed rest. They said the fluid will come back, but hopefully not as much.

The good news: They did another beta & it was at 130! Next beta is Friday.

ok, going to try to nap. not feeling so hot.
