Hi girls,
Glad to hear that everyone is doing good. I am not pregnant nor trying to I just had a baby boy back in december he is now 3 months old and I am very happy with him.
I like being here and talk to you girls to give you support since I just went through that not to long ago.

Jenny,
When I heard that my son was 8 oz at 38 weeks I talked to the doctor about inducement it's just that I know if they grow big I didn't want a c-section I wanted to have my son normal so thats why I told the doctor I wanted to be induce and yes within a week I went to the hospital and I had my son.

Usually at inducement they put a soften thing down on your cervix and right away they give you pitocin if I spelled it correctly and if you get those two things for sure you will be delivering the baby right away.

In my experience this last december the doctor order just to install the soften cervix for 12 hours and then they started with the pitocin after waiting for the longest 12 hours so just talkt o your doctor if you will be induce to get you both things right away instead of waiting for 12 hours to put the second thing. If you need any other info let me know I might of confuse you girls but it;s worth knowing what theya re going to do at inducement.

Love Lili

Hi ladies,

good luck and safe delivery to all those on the home stretch!

i got back my second beta yesterday and it went up from 85 to 594...the nurse said that was a very good sign...my fingers and toes continue to be crossed.

i dont have my first u/s until the 9th week which seems a really long way off...i'm really anxious to know that everything is ok.  I had a bit of a scare this morning with an unusual discharge but i called my doctor and they said not to worry... easier said than done, i can assure you.

ronda...i know exactly what you mean...my pants are already tight at the waist as well... i am thinking of getting maternity pants just for the comfort...

Jamie...sounds like we're around the same stage of preganancy...i'm just about 6weeks so welcome! 

JasJulesMom...my doctor told me absolutely no flying for the first trimester but that's because of a family history with dvt...if you are concerned, check with your doctor to be sure...

Take care,
Reshma

Congratulations on the good beta numbers! The 9th week does sound like a long time to wait but you will make it.
