Post Update...

Well had an u/s tuesday and a beta and they said things looked
bad.Beta was 1500 and saw a small 5mm empty sac on the u/s.

Then today 3 days later my beta was 7200 and u/s showed
a 9mm sac with a yolk and fetalpole and both docs tought
they saw an early heartbeat.Now I have to come back next week
friday to see how things developped.

So for now it looks better but we're not out of the woods yet.

I will be praying as much as possible this week.

(((hugs)))

Jeunesse How many weeks are you? Things will be fine. I have my first u/s on Monday to find the sac and then 2 weeks later the heartbeat. Beta #1: 530 (Monday), Beta #2: 950 (Wednesday), Beta #3:2917 (today). I will look for your updates. Relax. That is what I keep telling myself as well. It is so hard.

Hi Jan,

I'm exactly 6weeks pregnant.
I did IVF and we only transferred 1 morula(our own choice) this time on day 3
past egg retrieval.Betas so far:

09/29 1st beta 15dpo=64
10/6 2nd beta 22dpo=683 (doubling time 49 hours)
10/10 3rd beta 26dpo=1500 (doubling time 84 hours) U/S showed 5mm sac.
10/13 4th beta 29dpo=7200 (doubling time 31 hours) U/S showed 9mm
sac with yolk sac and fetalpole with what looks like an early heartbeat.

Next U/S friday 20th.
SO far my first beta was a thad low but doubled nicely to my second beta.
Third beta was wacky and took a long time to double but 4th beta
was perfect and u/s seemed to be on track.
At this point we're afraid to be too happy eventhough we are.
I think we need to see next week U/S first and see a strong heartbeat
to have more faith.

In the meanwhile I rest a lot,take my meds(heparin,progesterone,prenatals)
and I pray.

Hope all goes well with your pregnancy...your beta's do look good.

(((hugs)))

Gosh....I was going for an u/s friday but went today aswell.
I'm 6wk4d and measure 3 days earlier so 6wk1d....been meassuring 3 days
behind everytime so they told me not to worry about that.
But....good news....we have a heartbeat....a clear one too.
Baby was 3mm....so tiny and a heartbeat....such a miracle!!!!
I'm so very happy!!!
Next u/s this friday...I'll be 7wk1d but will meassure around 6wk5d.
I will continue praying for this miracle to grow!!!

You can say that again! Miracles all around. Please pray for Gayla..her numbers are not doubling as they would like and this will be her third loss post TR. Doubling time was 53 hours. I told her yours didn't double as you would have liked but you are well on your way to a take home baby.

Tonya is PG too by the way. Her numbers aren't in yet.

I didn't know Gayla was pregnant.I knew about Tonya.
Poor Gayla....hope all will go well with her pregnancy !!!
I don't think I'll post on the TR group though.....I don't feel I belong there
kwim? Maybe I will in the future but not at the moment though.

p.s. I can't believe you're almost 30 weeks Teresa!!!!
Time sure flies!!!

(((hugs)))
