Blue - You go in tomorrow for your 2nd beta, right? Can't wait to hear the big numbers!!

Bree - Big day tomorrow, have you POAS yet or are you going to?

I had my 3rd beta today and it was 6689!! DH and I are very pleased, since we were hoping for at least 4800. No more tests until my u/s in 1 1/2 weeks, the wait is going to make me crazy :)

Jude - Thanks for the well wishes. Good luck to you! Will be keeping my fingers crossed.

Angram - Congratulations on your fantastic 3rd beta! Yes, I have my second beta tomorrow morning. To reassure myself, I POAS yesterday while camping. The line came up immediately and was definitely darker this time. Still trying to be optimistically cautious.

Anyone having reflux symptoms? Never had a problem in the past with this, but a few days before my first beta, developed reflux after dinner. Since then, I've been having symptoms on and off. I know hormones during pregnancy can cause GI slowing. Just curious if anyone else was having this issue?

Good luck to all the ladies with upcoming betas and ultrasounds!

Angram, thanks. That's definitely encouraging! I also have been having some cramps, which I thought might be a bad sign, but I just read that can be a sign of implantation. Easy to drive yourself nuts wondering during the 2ww, right?

Congrats on your great betas!

Good luck Bree08, hope all is going well for you.

Blue - waiting to hear some big numbers!

Kate - not long now! The cramps and heaviness sound good to me.

Waiting for Friday for my beta, but have to say I did POAS yesterday and today, and got a +ve!!!!! Hoping that it sticks around now, I was obsessing over the colour of the lines this morning and thinking it got lighter from yesterday....well, I went and bought some different ones for tomorrow so that'll hopefully put paid to that!

Take care all

Hi Ladies!

Jude - Congratulations! Can't wait to hear your numbers!

My 2nd beta today was 316. The RE nurse said it's within the expected range, so they're going to recheck a 3rd beta on Wed (7/9), then schedule me for the U/S next week.

Dakota - Good luck on the U/S!

Jude, Angram, & Cheekskuss - Thanks so much for the positive support. I go in for my 3rd beta tomorrow. Keeping my fingers crossed that it's increasing as expected. Although my RE wants to do the u/s anytime after the 16th, I think I may have to postpone it until the 21st because of work. Hopefully, an extra weekend wait won't kill me.

Angram - When is your u/s?

Cheekskuss - Heartbeat...yeah!!! Glad to hear the baby is developing well. Your post on the other board regarding HCG numbers made me feel so much better! Thanks!

Jude - Hang in there! Friday is just around the corner!

Blue - I bet your beta is great tomorrow, can't wait to hear the number :) Wow, I'm going insane waiting until 7/16 (1st u/s), I couldn't imagine having to wait any longer than I have to..good luck :)

cheekskuss - What an awesome day to finally get to see your little ones heart beat, what a blessing! I cannot imagine how wonderful and emotional it is to see a beating heart for the first time, how amazing. I'm so happy for you!!!

I'm doing good, just counting down the days until my u/s. Still pretty exhausted, but doing my best to come straight home from work and take a little cat nap :) Also trying to get 8-9 hours of sleep at night, but that's interrupted by the 3 trips to the bathroom :)

Hope everyone is hanging in there!! I make my apt today for my next u/s, cant wait to see my little ones again and their little fluttering hearts.

Dakota - Congratulations! Your numbers were very suspicious for twins... I'm sooo excited for you! My next beta is this morning, and the U/S is sometime after the 16th. I'll probably schedule it for the 21st because of work.

Wow, this thread seems like good luck. Lots of positive news!

Unfortunately, bad news for me today. Had my beta this morning and it's a BFN. Thanks, all, for your help and advice. You've all been great!
