We went to the doctor Friday. It was great. Our little one is starting to look more human now. Less like a cocoon. It has arm buds and you can distinctly see the head and back and neck. What a beautiful little person. I'M SO IN LOVE!
We go back in two weeks. I'm sort of scared because this week is the last few days we will be doing the progesterone and the dex meds. I've been on these since before I was pregnant and I know its time for me to stop taking them but it just scares me. Dr. N told me that its completely safe to stop taking them, that the pregnancy is carrying itself now but I can't help but be scared. I'm sure everything will be just fine. But if you could you might throw our little one into your prayers that they stay strong and healthy and keep growing.
I hope all of you are doing good. Thanks for your support.

i just found your blog through expect miracles and wanted to say congrats on your pregnancy! i am currently waiting the results of our first IVF cycle. hopefully they will end like yours. :)
Prayers? You got 'em :) I know that taking the shots may feel like something that you are doing to keep the pregnancy going. And that stopping them will be letting go of that small bit of control. If your doctor is saying it's ok to stop then your body has taken over. I really feel like it will be ok but you are definetly in my prayers!
I will definitely be sending good thoughts and prayers your way!
I understand your fear about dropping the progesterone. I would feel the same way, I'm sure. Are you using suppositories or PIO injections? I just switched REs and this new office doesn't use the injections. Not like it should make a difference for me, because I never conceived using them anyway...but somehow injections seem like the stronger of the two methods.
Lots of luck and you should totally post your u/s picture after the next one. :)
Just checking in...I hope all is well! Have a great weekend :-)
