SD: I debated this morning whether or not to mention it, but I too went through beta hell this past summer only to end in m/c. So I completely can relate to how you are feeling right now. It is absolutely painful. (((HUGS))) But, despite my unfortunate outcome, there are some positive stories out there...believe me, when I was there in the midst of it--I LOOKED like crazy over the internet. I think the best you can do is keep the faith, prayers, and hope. We are all rooting for you and hoping for your miracle.

SD - I admire your attitude. When I had my ectopic my numbers stopped going up and went down then all of a sudden shot up, I was cautious but hopeful of a miracle. I read everything. I had to think like you, the baby wasn't meant to be and it was better that I find that early then to go ahead and carry the baby for a few more weeks. Yes the good news is you have a hospitable uterus ;) or in my case hospitable uterus and tubes! So you can get pregnant but for some reason a good egg and a good sperm and a good looking embryo are not guarantees of a helathy baby. I always thought this was a cruel joke, to give us a BFP only to crush us with bad news, but you are right it is still achieving a pregnancy. And the loss of it it is very hard whether you are 2weeks pregnant or 7 weeks. I am still praying for a miracle, are you doing the lab work at the same place? Sorry you have to go through beta hell.

Blessed - 10, 8, 8, and a 6 who was a few hours behind in maturity so it was actually a strong 6. No fragmentation on them. No forstie insurance :( our one little guy didn't make it. How about you? I think you can start testing out your trigger to see if it is gone, I did 9dpo and trigger was gone, then I did 11dpo and had a line!

Margi - hun you are still early!!! And you can still get negative hpts and be very pregnant! Happened to me! Yes absolutely we will be your cheerleaders! love your blinkie!

mellow - awesome news! My US is on 12.2 same day as Magi's beta - full of baby dust day!

I am down 7lbs wooooohooooooo OHSS is on her way OUT!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Rio: I had a 8, 6, 6, and 4 so it sound very similar in size except mine were 2 cells less in each. We had none to freeze either. When is your first U/S?

SD,
It's really tough, but hang in there. It's good to look at the silver lining, you were pregnant. It's a good sign that something is working and each time I feel we only get closer. Persistance is key and I know 2011 will bring us exciting news!

SD I am so sorry you are in beta hell but I agree with you completely on the silver lining. Last summer I was in beta hell until week 7 and it was tough and disappointing in the end (sorry I wish I could have an uplifting story) however all I kept telling myself was that it was at least it was a positive and I had gotten pregnant and that meant I could again. This time we got a BFN from an FET and I have to say that for me BFN is so much harder. I will keep you in my thoughts and I have seen these things turn around and be miracles so try to stay positive as long as you can. (((hugs)))

Kyleen: How’s it going? Line getting darker?

DeeDee and Ladybug: How's the peeing going? PMA Strong?! Image

Mellow: Love to see a photo..

Blessed: Come and join us on the “Dark Side” LOL...as Rio said you can test out your trigger...it’s ironic: being happy to see that negative so that you know that a positive is really a positive. Just beware..once you start there is no stopping! Image

Hi margi I will admit I have not POAS today. Will probably tomorrow morning, after getting the positive - first response brand tends to be light I don't want to get a diff result. Any other ladies get the faint pos?

My bloods is wednesday morning so will keep updated. It's just very tempting to POAS as often as possible. :lol:
