I LOST 1/2 POUND!!!!

I've had to weigh myself everyday and yesterday I didn't gain and today I'm actually a 1/2 pound lighter! I'm SO hoping that this means my OHSS has leveled out and the I will now start losing all this extra fluid my organs are floating in!! :D

BecP - so sorry to hear about the food poisoning. How awful, but it sounds like those beanies stuck! Can't wait to hear your numbers!

Allison - my boobs quit hurting too, not long after the ET. Even today, 16dpt and with an hcg over 2700, they don't hurt or look any different. So don't worry!

Well ladies the results are in.........


I got a score of 210!!! 12dp2dt, so pretty pleased!! It's a BFP!!

They don't even want to retest me!

Got my scan booked for 14 Nov. Only 2.5 wks to wait.

I think this morning may well have been morning sickness/or an overload of progesterone. Quite worrying since I'm only 4 wks pregnant!! What happened to the two week grace period when I feel ok, before I get sick eh??!!

YEA BEC!!!! That is awesome news and awesome numbers!
I hope we end up October with a bang!!!
Well now I am really nervous cuz that means I am next to test!
The only thing keeping me from testing early is I don't want to get a -ive and then have to go into work and be all depressed! How's that for PMA! HAHA
Started cramping last night but now they are gone. I just don't know what to think anymore. All I can trust is that it is in God's hands now. All I can do is pray!!! :D

Have a great day ladies!!

Hey Shelton,
I would think it may be too early to test...retest in a couple of days. When is your blood test scheduled for?
I am too scared to do a HPT! :)

I did take an HPT my last cycle a couple days early until my test date and it was -ive. But I was glad I was prepared anyways.

I hope yours turns into a BFP!!!
Keep the faith!

Those look like great numbers! You are well on your way. When was the first one done and how many days later for the second? Did they tell you when your first scan would be?


Congrats!

Hi Ladies,

Shelton - I would say that is pretty early to test. I would definately not let that get you down. When is your blood test?

Txpacotaco - Wow!! Congratulations. Those are great numbers. I hope mine go up that much. You must be so excited. Do you have to go back for another one? Or just for the scan?

Take care everyone,

Bec - CONGRATULATIONS!!!! That's awesome!

Shelton - Try not to worry yourself about it - your beta test will be quantitative and will be able to pick up levels a HPT can't detect. Remember that some embryos implant later than others, too, so it can take longer for your numbers to rise. Heck, I had two negative tests while I was waiting for my first beta. Good luck to you & hang in there...

My first beta was 14 days post retrieval, and it was only 75. Today's was 21 days post retrieval - a doubling rate of about 1.53 days according to some online calculator I found. The nurse said they would probably do my sonogram in 2 weeks. Does anybody have any idea what a fast doubling rate indicates? Is it just a sign that this is likely a strong singleton pregnancy? Any chance it could mean multiples? Could it mean something bad? I realize that questions are peppered everywhere in this site but thought I'd ask you guys...

ok ladies tell me what you think.

Preg test Mon levels were 67
Test Wed levels are 98

I was expecting for the to double. The doc office said as long as it is at least 60% increase it's ok and this was 68%. Still worried.

What do you think? I go back friday for another test.

Thanks,
Rachel
