Anyone doing FET/IVF in Jan 2013 till everyone's BFP (Everyone Welcome)

[Turkey16]

All my bloodwork came back normal so it was okay!

Terrific news Mo!

 

[Turkey16]

Ok ladies completely freaking out. Need your help. Got my beta back and it was 16,958. It didn't double. The RE did not seem concerned at all she also said when beta levels get kinda high they dont really double. I'm am a ball of nerves now. Ugh! What you guys think

Hope you're feeling better about things Sweetness...no worries on not doubling, like the other gals said, at this point the u/s is what matters. I know it's hard not to obsess, but everything sounds great to me...try to relax and enjoy. No stressing allowed!! xo

 

[Turkey16]

Brandy- So sorry that you have another hassle in the way... hope they can resolve the polyps soon and painlessly.

Sweetness- I wish I saw this sooner... DO NOT WORRY AT ALL... If your numbers were going up any higher it wouldn't be right... everything is fine so please take a breath and no tears lady!! xoxo

As for me... still spotting if you could call it that.. only when I wipe, not really anything even on my underwear. It's so faint brown that you really wouldn't notice it but of course, now that it's been going on for 4 days, it worries me because all my HPT say positive. I'm trying to stay hopeful and wait for my beta on Wednesday, then again on Friday to really know what's going on...

Hugs to the rest of you ladies!

PMA BabyD!! I truly believe you are fine. I am praying for you and sending good vibes for Wednesday. So happy for you!!

Sweetness.. I'm confused. You would be concerned? It's not red or clumpy. Can't do anything about it either way. Gotta let nature take its course. Hoping for a miracle.

No I wouldn't be concerned I will have to look what I wrote. Did that on my phone and could have messed up easy. But your def ok because it's not red or clots. So your good. Completely nor al to have brown spotting with IVF and FET. Sorry if I had a typo! Don't want to worry you

Thanks Turkey! I'm doing ok. The IVIg was pretty easy but takes forever, 2.5 hours just sitting there. Then it was dinner time and then it was bedtime! So far no side effects so far, but I expect my head to start hurting as it did last time. We'll see how I feel.

I took a digital test earlier, and it still says pregnant! LOL! The test line inside the digital test showed a super dark line. I don't have any beta or any checkup until next Wednesday! I might have to get some FRER's tomorrow to keep my mind at ease.

Sweet! I'm not sure what is easier? Betas that aren't doubling like we want or not knowing what is happening at all! Either way I think we just have to wait and see what our ultrasound shows next week.

 

[Sweetness_87]

Baby I just what I put it was suppose to say I wouldn't be concerned. Oh my goodness. Sorry.

 

[Sweetness_87]

Thanks ladies I do feel a lot better. ESP after looking up a lot of things saying it doesn't double after 6,000 and normally slows down etc. and saw many girls who didn't double and was at 72-105 doubling rate and was fine!! And looked up my old betas and the last two didn't quiet ouble

Baby I just what I put it was suppose to say I wouldn't be concerned. Oh my goodness. Sorry.

I agree.. don't be worried BabyD.. it is common and light bleeding is fine. Things to worry about are:
- severe cramping and/or severe lower back pain
- clots or red blood, lots if it
- sudden loss of symptoms (all of them)

If you don't have these, then I am sure you are fine!

 

[MoBaby]

and i want to add that bright red or clots doesnt mean its over! i had it all with my pg; it had nearly stopped when the mc happened and it was totally unrelated. my re said a lot of women spot/bleed after ivf!

I kept testing occasionally, too. But not with FRERs. I used ICs and other less sensitive tests. The IC from Thursday was super dark. I said to DH, "I crushed that test!"

Only 12 hours til my ultrasound

Can't wait to hear about your u/s, First!

 

[FirstTry]

Just back from u/s. I thought it would be twins with my betas, but it's only one perfect little heart, beating at 118 bpm.

Now, to google fetal heart rates!

HEHE.. I think that a normal HR is between 110 and 180 bpm! But beyond that I am not sure? Let me know what you find out! Congrats!!!
