TTC #1- Looking for buddies!

Tb, wow!!!!! Congrats girl!! That line looks so much darker than you had with your chemicals. It really looks like it'll be one that sticks! Did you go to get your betas checked?

Amber, has anything changed in terms of your pregnancy care and L&D now that we're dealing with the virus?
 
This was yesterday’s (bottom) compared with Sunday’s. I don’t have one today because I haven’t got my Wal mart pick up order with more tests lol I think it looks decent.

I’ve looked back at every cycle I have had a chemical and always by 17 dpo it was over but I knew it was going down by 15 dpo. Today I’m 16dpo so I am feeling extra anxious for today’s test. But Sunny, you’re right, much better than all my other chemicals!

I haven’t called to schedule a beta. I figured with everything going on, they might not even want me to go in and I am not sure I want to go!

Well today’s test was lighter. Something about this exact time frame in development/implantation is my main issue. I’ll of course try one more time tomorrow, because both the test and control line are way lighter than the other two tests so there’s always an off chance this test is not as good but.. I read this story before.
 
Hmm well if both were lighter it may just be the test. The lines you posted look insanely good! I remember Amber's tests were like that too and we all know Leon was the end result. I randomly clicked on a page way back and found it pretty much right away lol: TTC #1- Looking for buddies! and at 5 weeks: TTC #1- Looking for buddies!
 
Tb- hopefully it's just the test since the control is lighter also. Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

My midwife appt got cancelled and they have decided they won't be seeing me until 26 weeks unless I have a concern. Pretty bummed about that but I understand why. I have the anatomy scan is Saturday to look forward to!
 
Today’s test was much darker than yesterday’s, but lighter than the day before.. but so is the control so... no clue. This is why betas are important ! I have pretty much counted this out so I’ll wait for AF. If she doesn’t come, Then wonderful!
 
Oh no Tb sorry about the waiting game.... still have everything crossed for you!
 
Still holding out hope for you Tb!!!

Omg. I need to check in more often with you ladies. TB those lines look so promising, FX and prayers for you.

Soooooo I'm like 1 day late for my period and I took a pregnancy test tonight, literally just for fun and this happened.

Not planned, but well received. I'm freaking out a bit about 2 under 2 but I'll survive, right?!
 
What!!!!??? Dream, I was totally not expecting that! So happy for you!!!
 
Congrats dream!

AF started today. I’m so sad. I was really hoping that after a successful pregnancy/birth things would be different. Now with the world the way it is I can’t go get treatments or do a transfer. It just sucks. I just had two good friends tell me that they are due the same week I would have been due when I was pregnant in January.
 
Oh TB, I'm so sorry to hear AF came.

The travel bans and clinic closures are going to effect so many couples, its heartbreaking. I know it's so much easier said than done but try to keep faith & hope.

We are always here to support you.
 
Tb, I'm so, so sorry. It's beyond cruel that you have to go through this so many times. Your lines looked so good, why does this keep happening :( No words. Sending you lots of hugs and strength and know that we're here for you :hugs:
 
Well ladies, I come with sad news.

6w0d - HCG 298, not looking too good
7w1d - Dating scan, measured 5w3d and no heartbeat
7w3d - I just got home from doing another blood draw to see which way my HCG is going but I think we're all pretty knowledgeable on our dates and out bodies, it's likely going down.

My fam doctor is booking me a appointment at a miscarriage specialist clinic for next week to determine next steps on getting the baby to pass. I've had some intermittent spotting but nothing too significant.

I'm not even sure how I feel emotionally. A little numb. We weren't ready to start trying again but of course welcomed the surprise. I just hope and pray when we are ready it will happen again.

Hope you're all staying safe.

UPDATE - my HCG levels today at what should be 7w3d according to my LMP were 1723. Why are they rising? Certainly not doubling every 48 hours. Anyone have experience with slow rise Hcg or HCG rising during miscarriage? Now I'm confused!

Dream- so sorry you are going through this! I only had HCG tested during my MMC and they were really high but dropping quickly. What's the next step? Continue with HCG levels or another ultrasound?
 
Dream, I'm so sorry :( Is it possible that you're not as far along as you think? I really hope you have some answers soon. Keeping everything crossed for a healthy, sticky little babe!!!
 
My doc is having me repeat bloodwork again toda . Will keep you guys posted.
