Thanks Rio guru!! I know you are 100% correct, my line is as dark as can get, if it get slightly lighter, I would worry myself to death.

That being said, how about if I poas till my second beta on Friday,and after that bury the evil sticks forever:) just two more days and I will be done with this addition.

Qita- Isnt till still too early for beta?

Whats is hcg booster? Do you know which hormones levels have gone down?
Stay positive, as we all know, in this journey anything is possible.Loads of luck!
Do keep us posted. I will keep you in my prayers.
Thank for your message Pregnant Lady :D My head knows that 6dp3dt is way early for a beta but because the clinic opted to do the test my PMA (which had been great) is rocked and my heart is hurting :cry: Just have to stay positive and believe that this time is My Time. Sunday seems like a long way away but the weekend is Friday and Saturday here so will have my husband at home to distract me those days (and the Royal Wedding :) ) so really not that long to wait.

Yes, but don't get stressed if you don't see very much. 5w3d is early. I went in at 5w6d and only saw 1 sac and 1 yolk. (There was something else I thought was a sac and the tech said it was too large to be another sac. Hm) It wasn't until 6w5d that we were able to see 2 sacs and hear 2HB's...and we were even warned that that could be early!!!

So....just be cautious and don't worry if you don't see much at that first u/s. It is reassuring (for those of us who have had ectopics) to know there is something in the uterus. With you...I bet there is more than one "something" in there. :wink: :wink:

Enjoy being pregnant my friend!!!!

Babydreamz ~Great second beta!!! I am so happy that my beta doubled, thanks for checking on me. Looks like we are both 4 weeks 4 days PG. My u/s is May 11th can’t wait (by the way I plan to POAS until then). You’re right we never stop worrying. Towards the end of my first pregnancy I got better. But never thought I would worry as much as I did after my son arrived. He was such a miracle; I was constantly worried about SIDS. Some told me that you never stop worrying about your children. I believe in my heart that what makes us good Moms. Here is to a beautiful nine months :mrgreen:

I am so happy for both of us. :lol: :lol: We are literally in the same boat of 4 weeks 5 days :D Glad to have same day buddy!!
hmmm never thought about being worried after baby is born but you are so right.

btw I have stopped poas- ing, because if the line is a little bit lighter, I will worry myself to death. I plan to keep PMA and just wait patiently for u/s (May 6). The practical reason is, that most hpt with measure 10 to 20, and we are way past that, so even if something is going wrong, htp will still show positive.

Here's to uneventful, healthy and happy pregnancies!! I will keep stalking you till you deliver beautiful baby!!! :D

babydreamz ~ I agree with you about POAS. Call me superstitious but during my cycle with my son even though it was during a different month almost two years ago this cycle had the same schedule. I stimmed the same number of days, triggered on a Sunday, ER on a Tuesday, ET on a Friday, POAS Friday before beta and beta on Monday. So since I POAS until the u/s with my son I will continue to POAS this time too, like I said call me superstitious :D

Nicks- Its funny but I would have done the exact same thing as you, if it gives a positive outcome, I am superstitious like that too :lol: :lol: So is the line still getting darker? Your u/s is next weeks, right?

What I have found is that the darkness of the line plateaus, but the rate at which the line appears is faster each time. My u/s is on the 11th, is yours tomorrow?

I lierally use to have stop watch to chk how fast the line gets darker :lol: the crazy things we do.
My u/s is tomorrow at 10.45 am, DH cant make it. :roll: Last time it was ectopic pregnancy, I guess thats the reason RE has scheduled u/s early, just to rule out the possibility, I guess.
I hope that I will be able to see gestation sac (s) at least :D.
