Thanks Sugarlys. I was actually talking to my mom this morning and she remembered that when she was pregnant with my older brother, the docs kept telling her she wasn't pregnant. They would take urine and blood and her results kept coming up negative. They were giving her drugs to induce her period and it just wouldn't come. So for THREE months she would go in, they'd take blood and urine and the results were negative for pregnancy. They said she had a tumor that was mimicking pregnancy and scheduled her for surgery to remove it!!! So right before surgery she finally tested positive....she was five months pregnant and the following week she felt my brother kick.
Now this was forty years ago but clearly her levels were low too for them not to be detected for that long. After that, hearing how both Tainted and ER started off with slow rising betas (and that's two out of six) and other ladies telling me they're familiar with people starting off slow I now realize it is possible that I may fall into this category as well. I do realize that I may not but I've gone from having no hope to feeling that we'll see on Friday. If the numbers keep rising, even slower than normal, I'm going to insist on US before making any decisions. So doubtful but not a foregone conclusion.
I think it was 60,something ? That was a week or two later
for rising numbers
