Thanks Toobee...

I just had my u/s and my ob said is shrunk considerably! so much that it would be hard to find if he didn't know where to look. So I guess he was right about going off the baby aspirin.... anyway... just wanted to share as you were so nice to wish me well...
best wishes

For those asking about spotting...

I had brown spotting two days before my beta and then a day after and then a week after that. Brown is old blood and could definitely be implantation. Mine was very slight and went away within 24 hours. Hope that helps - I know that the 2ww is torturous....
