So, there are two sacs. Yup.
One has a yolk sac and is measuring 5w2d, the other is just a sac, so I go back in two weeks (!!!) for another ultrasound. The RE is confident that we "have an intrauterine pregnancy, possibly pregnancies." I love how doctors can make things sound so sterile.
Yippee for sure, and yikes for sure!
I asked her how science explains this--how 4 years of sex sex sex, iui, drugs, temping, charting, acupuncture equals no pregnancy, and a one time sex attack while I am breastfeeding equals one, maybe two pregnancies?
She had no answer for me. I wish we all had an answer to that question.
Oh, and let's not forget that A turned one yesterday. Happy birthday to my little beetle! I cried like a ninny during the birthday song.
So for now, I was told to stop breastfeeding immediately. Hmmm...that kinda sucks because we were slowly weaning, so I guess we are in for a rough few days. I am bummed to have to stop so suddenly, but we were planning on stopping by Oct. 1st anyway to prepare for FET. What's one week early?

beta two is in...
2553.
That's a tall number, eh?
I am freaking out a bit. Isn't that a bit high? Doubling in 36 hours?
Ultrasound tomorrow. We'll see...

Beta is in...
and the number is 1013. Definitely preggars, and that means that September 2 was the day we did the deed (um, this is a hurricane Is.aac baby, by the way. College was closed for a week. DH's restaurant was closed for a few days. We did it when we were on a hurrication).
So, what does this all mean? I am trying to calculate. Implantation occurs 5 days after conception, so then I am technically 10 days post implantation. huh? How is this infertile supposed to do a beta number search when I am absolutely confused as to how to count this all.
I know--how about not obsessing and just wait until Wednesday's next beta. I also get to talk with the RE then, too.
The waiting room of the RE clinic brought back some haunting memories. The last time I was there, I was clutching a strand of ultrasounds that showed a triplet pregnancy, feeling nauseous, freaking out. Walking back in there was a bit weird for me.
So, yeah, pregnant for now. For reals.

POAS WTF***Updated
POAS=positive
Now, this is an expired pregnancy test, so it can't be accurate, right?
I'm a week late (well, I got my first period since A was born on August 12--it was totally normal and lasted 5 days).
I had sex during the fertile time.
Ha. I have had sex only ONCE since A was born. Yes, that was this past month. Don't ask. Lack of libido, dry vag, sex hurts, although we have tried to about a dozen times this past year.
Now I am just waiting for A to wake up from his nap so I can run to the drugstore and buy every single test they have.
A will be one this Wednesday.
Who else to share this all with than you.
Am I the urban legend? The girl with bunk tubes and a jacked up uterus?
*********************
First response, clearblue easy, drugstore generic, all screaming positive. I guess I call the RE tomorrow? Get monitored? Unbelievable...
