HELP! I am new here and it is SOOO wonderful to see that I'm not alone. I'll give you my story. On clomid, glucophage, synthroid this cycle. OPK detected LH surge Oct 19th, first pos HPT on Oct. 30th, urine test at doctor's neg. Retested Fri Nov. 3rd, pos, blood work done 11/4/06 HCG=29, Progesterone=43.5. HCG low but doctor confirmed pregnancy. Next HCG 11/6 only 34. Anyone with any insight? Thanks.

1) as long as it is going up - there is some hope 2) betas below 200 do crazy things

Until it starts dropping remain cautiously optimistic

whens your next beta?

My doctor hasn't even contacted me- I went to get my labs at the hospital since she hadn't called. I hope she will want to do more rather than just giving up on me.....
thanks for the thoughtful words
