Question for Ghost

Post by Hopeful Heather »

I did my 5 day transfer of 2 blasts on 8/5. I had my first beta on 8/14 of 68.8. Then my next beta 8/21 1287. Then on 8/24 I had my first ultrasound where I should have been 5 weeks and 3 days, They saw only a small sac. So I had another ultrasound today 8/28 and today they saw a larger sac that measured 5 weeks and 3 days and a yolk and fetal pole, however no heartbeat. Later on this afternoon I got my beta back and it was 9529. They have scheduled another ultrasound for 9/3 to check for a heartbeat. Should I be concerned with my numbers and that they didnt see a heartbeat today?

Sounds like it's a little behind where it should be but is coming along nicely. Heartbeats start to show up in our 6-week ultrasounds, but not always. I'd be surprised to see one at 5 weeks 3 days.
Avoid IVF and surrogacy in Ukraine. Ukrainian centers pay shills to post here under numerous sock accounts pretending to be patients in Ukraine. Centers using such deceptive advertising cannot be trusted and should be avoided.
