I am pregnant!!!!!!!!!

Post by sciteacher77 »

Hello all,

I am soooooo excited! I just received my confirmation call! I had tested at home so I was pretty sure, but I wanted to make sure I had a strong beta. I think I did. It was 272. My next blood test is Monday. Any thoughts on the beta number? Could both embryos have implanted?

Thanks so much! This sight has been a lifesaver for me!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! And that Beta is REAL strong...if that goes past 600 - better start buying two of everything! Good for you! Can I ask..what were your grade embryo's and when did you transfer? 3 day or 5 day?

YEAH!!!! CONGRATS!

Hi Kelley,
Thanks so much for the kind words! We transferred 2 embryos - 1 perfect grade AA Blast and 1 grade BB - on day 5.

Hi SL,

Thanks so much! Good luck to you. I have been reading your posts! My first cycle was cancelled due to poor response - I never got to retrieval. This was my 1st full cycle.

I had twin boys this past February with my first IVF. My first beta was a 129 so your chances of twins seem quite good!!

Thanks! I am excited. My 1st ultrasound is tomorrow and then I'll know for sure. My second beta - 4 days later was 1248. It more than doubled, but did not quadruple so we will see! I am excited!

Hi Michelle -

Congrats on your great news!!!! I also got prego on my first IVF cycle and this will be our very first miracle. My first beta came back at 362 and my doc thought I could possibly have twins but I only had 1 embryo transferred so he was not too sure. When we had our first u/s there was only 1 peanut I guess my results just meant I am realllyyyyy prego. I am soo happy for you and everyone that is getting great results. GOD bless you and your little miracle. I am now 16 weeks and growing I can't wait to have my peanut in my arms.

2ww... sigh

Post by ready4baby »

OK.... I am officially in the 2ww... :? I had 2 perfect blastocysts transfered last Saturday, the 15th. I am a mess! I don't think there is anything I haven't googled! I take notes of every feeling and google it to make sure it's a good sign! I was experiencing a little back pain yesterday, and was worried about AF, buttoday I feel great! Well, besides waking up and my boobs were throbbing... It's such an emotional roller coaster! I know all the symptoms I am experiencing are pregnancy symptoms, but I am also taking progesterone suppositories, so they can also be side effects of that too... I go for my blood test next Thursday, the 27th... I haven't POAS yet, but I am so tempted to!

PS I couldn't resist joining this chat forum, the posts are great!!!
