I am preggo with a twin!!!

I just had my first u/s this morning.  Bingo!  We saw 2 little flickers.  My DH and I are so happy!  I am now 6w4d preggo.  Last night I had a little bleeding/spotting, I am now a couch potato and I will be a couch potato for the next couple of weeks!

Lots of baby dust to all of us!

The tracker is a bit confusing.  Conception date is actually first day of LMP as there is no way to actually know true conception date (except for our IVF'ers and IUI'ers).  If you look at my tracker it says conception date April 26th.  That is actually the date my OB uses as LMP (I had miscarried right before I conceived this little guy, so didn't actually have an LMP).  SHe did the dating by ultrasound. So, technically if that was true conception date I would be 20 weeks since conception, 22 weeks gestation.  Now, question is, did I help or just confuse matters even more...lol.

OK, let me try to explain, see if I can do a good job.  :-)

Yes, I did the transfer on 9/3.  By the time of the transfer, the embroys had been developping for 5 to 6 days.  So till now, the embroys are about a little over 4 weeks.  But the doctors add another 2 weeks to calculate your days of pregnancy.  My doctor told me my due day should be 5/22/2009.  When setting up the pregnancy tracker on this website, it only asks me for the due day, and it automatically figures out the conception day, it is not my configuration.  To my understanding, conception day should be the day when the sperm meets with the egg.  But here, it looks more like the first day of the last manstrual period (LMP).

6-week (from LMP) or 4-week (from conception) is not too early to see heartbeat.  We all saw the 2 flickers.  :-)

Hi, I am still on 1 cc of progesterone once a day and 0.2cc of del-estrogen once every 3 days.  It is the most painful moment in a day.  Where are you at?

I am a little confused.  Your profile said that you did a FET on Sept 3, but your pregnancy tracker says you conceived on 8/15.  Now your post says that you are 6 wks. 4 days, which would be right if you conceived on August 15 th.  If you didn't do your transfer until Sept, 3, you would only be about 4 weeks. Too early to see heartbeats.

Help, I am super confused.

Thanks for helping this old gal understand.
Heather
