Ok so wed my beta was 137 and sat (today) 453. That sounds good right???
 
That is awesome!!! Great beta sweet!! Yay congrats!

Want: great thread!! I will post there after my beta :)
 
Sweet so that's normal for 10dp5dt??? I'm afraid it's not normal and plus I don't have ANY symptoms
 
I am symptom free as well. It should double every 48-72 hrs and yours has done that plus some :)

I hope for a great beta like yours!
 
Hello Ladies! Of course, everyone has their personal reasons for choosing to transfer one, two, three or even four embryos, but one should also consider the risk of not being able to carry multiples to term and various additional risks as well as the capability of handling them emotionally and financially. When we had our initial consult with the IVF Dr., he brought up the issue of how many embryos to transfer (1 or 2) and as a former nanny to multiples, I said "Oh, I can handle twins!". Dr went on to explain that his concern was not if I could handle multiples, but if the pregnancy would be successful. He strongly suggested we only transfer 1 embryo because of the risks involved with multiples, even twins.

I wasn't really sold on the idea until I did some research on my own. Now I know it is the best choice for us. Just wanted to offer another perspective. Of course, multiples are born healthy all the time, and I'm not suggesting that anyone pregnant with twins will have problems. I just wanted to offer my experience to those considering transferring more than two. There are a variety of risks involved that shouldn't be taken lightly. Do your research. I hope this is helpful. :hugs:

Ali - the needles are so confusing at first. The smaller ones are for injecting in your abdomen. If you need injection training videos my clinic has them online: https://www.nyufertilitycenter.org/ivf/injections

AFM - I'm on day 3 of stims and so far so good. I have Clomid added into the mix this time and it gives me a little bit of a dull headache. Hopefully that is the worst side effect I get from it. My next ultrasound/blood work is on Tuesday.

Em - I've already been through 1 IVF (BFN) so here we are again. I know how to inject the meds, my issue is that I have 4 different sized needles! I remember using 1 to mix the drugs then another to inject them last time, but having 4 different sized needles is throwing me for a loop. I am going to bring them ALL with me when I go in for my baseline U/S and bloodwork on Monday.

I hope you don't get too many side effects with Clomid, I had horrible hot flashes at night and I was really weepy. Good thing is that its only for 5 days! Best of luck at your U/S on Tues!
 
Crap... I just went to the bathroom b/c I felt some leakage from the progesterone and my liner had pink spotting on it.... Now I'm worried b/c af is due today. No cramps and none when I wiped. Crap :( I hope this is nothing.

As all the other ladies have said, a little spotting is normal, but I'm like you a total worrier, so I totally understand you freaking out. I have heard from many women that spotting in the first weeks of pregnancy is totally normal, so hopefully it is nothing to worry about! Just call your Dr on Monday to make sure everything is OK. :hug:

I can't wait either!!!

It has been a very busy few days here. We had 9 people over for thanksgiving, then did a bit of shopping and went to a movie with my dad and dh on Friday. Then today we had a second thanksgiving with friends who couldn't make it on Thursday. We fed 9 people again today! Then this evening I went with some girlfriends to see Breaking Dawn. Only two more days of BC for me, then I go for my baseline Friday and hopefully start stims that night!

Hope all is well with everyone. Hooray to those with great betas!
 
Thanks alicatt! It stopped so I'm sure it was the insert.. I have labs on Monday so I'll ask the nurse when I'm there. I will ask for progesterone and estrogen check as well. Poor dh is more freaked out than me! He's wanted a baby since we first married 11 years ago! He is telling me don't do this don't do that your lifting to much, walking to much etc. Lol.

Sweetness - check out this charts. https://www.betabase.info/showBasicChart.php?type=Single
https://www.betabase.info/showBasicChart.php?type=Twin

Just look up your DPO and then it will show you the ranges of values seen on that date. Their site also has a doubling calculator you can use to help figure out if you are doubling at the right rate.

It sounds perfect to me! Possibly even dare I say it? Twins?
 
Mo, I wanted to say I agree what everyone has said how the spotting is normal. I do hope you are able to get some answers at your apt Monday.

Sweet, your beta sounds great! Will they do another?

I am glad the spotting has stopped for you:hugs: Your DH sounds so sweet!!

Do the progesterone inserts have to go in an applicator like the vaginal creams? Is it a cream or a pill type thing?
 
AFM - Just got all my XMAS shopping done :yipee: now to get the house decorated, but that will have to wait until next weekend. I go in for my baseline Monday, can't wait!! I start stims that day too. Let's get this show on the road!
