2nd Beta Numbers

I was more nervous today about my 2nd beta then I was about the 1st!
My fear of course was, that the level had dropped and not doubled like it was supposed to.
Nurse called around 12:45 to tell me I can start celebrating now, my 1st beta on Wed
came in at 274 and Today 2days later it came in at 688! So it more than doubled a little.
It is doubling at 1.50 days instead of every 2 days, so I think its safe to say I am definately
pregnant, I stiil cant get used to being able to say that word, while talking about myself!
Lat beta with RE is on Monday 3/3rd and then 1st ultrasound will be the following week.

First Beta!

So yesterday was my 1st beta, talk about nerve wracking, I was so afraid to get that call.
Thank Goodness it was a good phone call & I am 100% pregnant with 1st beta coming in at 274!
I was estatic but now I am more nervous than ever, just wanting to know everything is going to
be ok and my numbers are going to double the way the shouls. Please God do not give me such a blessing only to loose it later. 2nd beta is scheduled Feb 29th @ 7:45.

Well Heres the miracle!

I started testing way to early @ 4dp5dt and kept getting BFN's!!!
I was so disgusted and sad each time I saw only one line. Thursday I started cramping
just like aunt flow was coming, and then Friday night I was spotting. I couldnt do anything
but cry for hours because I knew yet again I was not pregnant! Something told me Saturday morning @ 8dp5dt to test again and low and behold there it was the most beautiful two pink lines I ever have seen! It was very,very faint, so I went & bought a digital and it said Pregnant!!
So at this point I sill dont believe it and have to test each day but the lines on Saturday night doubled in color form the one in the morning! I have my beta Wed the 27th at 8:00am and am soo nervous, I just cant wait to hear those numbers I am praying they are high and all is good in the world!!!!

Blastocyst Transfer

Well had my 5day transfer of two perfectly healthy blastocysts yesterday. My RE
being as kind as she is and wanting to give me the best odds possible, decided to throw in assisted hatching at no cost. I was very happy about that until reading that this procedure gives you a higher chance at twinning! So the 2 that were transferred could turn into 3 or even 4 not that it happens often but its a possibility. The transfer went great and now I am in the dreaded 2ww!! I will have beta on 2/28th but you know I wont be able to resist the HPT's the whole time.

New Update

Wow, its been a long time since I have posted. Just wanted to update my blog for those of you that read this. I started my 2nd IVF cycle @ the very end of January. Things were progressing slowly with the Stims even though my RE put me on a new protocol:( I had egg retrieval on Feb 10th and they ended up getting 12 eggs but only 10 were mature & 7 fertilized. I was very dissapointed to say the least, because my 1st cycle I had 12 mature eggs and all 12 fertilized. Well what I learend was that all cycles are 100% different and it really is quality that matters over quantity. I was assuming I would be doing a day 3 transfer because of the limited amount of embryos, I recieved a phone call on day 3 saying that all of our embies are still thriving and they are making it a 5 day transfer. I was a little concerned because I was worried that not many of them would make it to day 5, my RE says I worry way to much, and she told me we have some "spanking embryos" this time, 6 out of the 7 are the highest grade you can get! Well our transfer day is Friday the 15th of Feb @ 11:30. I am super duper excited and also scared shitless!!!!
