38 minutes to go of my long (well, not really) shift. Then I have FIVE days off! In a row!!
I’ll be 7 weeks tomorrow! Whoo hoo!

My sister arrived last night and my parents and aunt and uncle from Hong Kong arrived this morning. It’s a full house! I haven’t seem my aunt and uncle for a couple of years so it’s nice to see them. Hopefully we’ll go to Hong Kong next year for my cousin’s wedding. So far, my [...]

So over the last week or so, I’ve developed this low grade nausea that seems to hang around pretty much the entire day. Actually, it’s better in the morning although this morning, I had a pretty awful wretching session. I brushed my teeth perhaps a little to vigorously which made me super nauseous and caused [...]

We’ve got twins! Two of them! Two heart beats!

So how many people can you tell about your so-called “stealth blogging” before you can’t really call it stealth blogging anymore? I have such a hard time keeping a secret! Especially since Dan and I have been so open about our IVF efforts, people want to know if you got pregnant. And I really like [...]

Okay, so I was thinking I might be able to skate by without any kind of morning sickness. Well, yesterday afternoon, I was pretty nauseous and dry heaved a bit but I was okay by the time I started working. This morning, I felt fine, even ate a bagel with salami and cheese. Come noon, [...]

Yeah, six weeks! Seems like a long time in coming because I’ve spent TWO weeks at five weeks. Yeah, confusing. So, when I first found out I was pregnant, I inputed my date of conception (since I didn’t have a last period) and it told me I was five weeks pregnant. But I got confused [...]

So I had my third beta-HCG (blood test) two days ago and my result was 24,126. What does that mean? Well, my pea-sized emergency medicine brain knows that in a normal singleton pregnancy, the beta-HCG should double approximately every two days. And if you take my beta-HCG level of 750 which was taken ten days [...]

So a little background. After trying casually for about six months and realizing that I wasn’t having periods, I went to my OB/GYN. One thing lead to another and my husband and I ended up in the infertility clinic. We tried two rounds of Clomid/IUI without success and found ourselves at the IVF clinic. The [...]

NOTE: From here on until 12/16/08, these were entered into my “stealth blog”.
Well, I actually already have a blog but because I’m trying to keep my pregnancy on the DL, I can’t blog on it so I’ll do it here. Of course, I decide to do this five minutes before I have to leave for [...]
