Post by kristinpa »

Hi Ladies,
I am so excited to tell you that I got my BFP yesterday! I did not POAS so my results were a total suprise. Beta is 583. I have to go in Monday and Thurs of next week to recheck Beta. I am still in shock!!!

Congrats! Your beta is high--might be twins. I had my BFP Friday (too) with a beta of 246. My next appt is Mon and Wed. I cheated though and POAS and got a BFP then. I just couldn't bear the wait at the end of the 2ww. I'm still in shock! Have you been getting any symptoms since? At times I still get the feeling that my AF is coming (little cramping) and a little nauseated. I think we are on both on the same track this cycle. Keep me posted! :D :D

Wonderful News! This is the month for the BFP's!!!

I could not refrain from POAS but I still wasn't satisfied until I got my BETA results. It all still seems so surreal!! When you try soooo many years and it finally happens you just keep asking yourself, "Is it really true?"

Well, it is true and I am so thankful and I'm sure all of you are too!!! :D

By the way, how many embies did you transfer? I had a total of 7 eggs and I transferred 2 embies (8 & 7) cells on day 3. The remaining 5 did not make it to blasts to be frozen. :(

congrats to the girls who have also gotten there BFP and good luck to the ones that are going next week! Overall I feel pretty good...the only symptoms are that I am a little more tired, I have some breast tenderness and I have a little mild cramp here and there. oh and I am more hungry than usual and craving salty food. My RE transferred 3 blasts on day 5. He said the chances that all three would stick are slim to none. Given my Hcg I am hoping that maybe it could be twins because hubby and I would be thrilled with that. The wait for ultrasound is definitely going to be worse than the 2WW!! Have a great Sunday everyone!!

Your numbers are rising nicely! My beta today was 823 and am due back Wednesday for 3rd beta. If that goes well, my u/s will be next week. I can't wait! Does your RE think you're having (at least) twins with your numbers?

They are saying that it could be twins but there is no guarantee. There are women with high betas and a singleton and there are women with low betas and twins....so you just never know! I am nervous for my 3rd beta tomorrow...i'm praying that we both have a nice increase!!
