Going nuts... Update

FutureMrsB.FutureMrsB. member
in TTC after 35
Okay,
So, I'm glad I'm not the only one who obsesses over POAS and whatnot. You all made me feel much better about myself. ;)
So here it is. Yesterday,  I took a digital test and it came back positive!  So I immediately called my Dr.'s office and (because of my past history) they wanted me to go for blood work. Got the results this morning and my HgC levels are only at 15.  I cannot tell you how miserable I feel right now because they're so low (this is how my 1st MC started).  That being said, I'm still technically not due for AF til tomorrow so the nurse explained how very early it still was and I'll go back Friday for more blood work and hope it at least doubles. So here comes the "let's obsess over HgC levels" game.  I know I need to try to relax, think positive and I realize that it's out of my control, there's nothing I can do, but my mind has a mind of its own.  Leaving for vacation Saturday and I'll make myself enjoy it.
I would appreciate your positive vibes, sticky baby dust, ANYTHING!
Thanks ladies!

    Fx that your betas go up.

    You are so early they might not double in 48 hrs. If they go up that will be good.

    Sending good vibes your way that your beta increases on Friday and continues to double from then on!!!! 

    Like ksgsmu, I (unfortantely) know beta hell all too well.    Enjoy your vacation and hopefully this time away will help distract you from the stress and worry over what your hcg levels are doing.  

    Take care :)

    There is definite hope! Fingers crossed that Friday's draw shows doubling. The beginning is so worrisome. I am also closely monitored at the beginning of each pregnancy due to my losses. With DS, my first beta was 17. He is a healthy 9 month old baby today so there is definitely hope for you.

    Ticker warning.

    Yay for your bfp! I had a feeling you were going to test positive, that really sounded like implantation bleeding to me. Try to relax and enjoy your vacation and remember that it is still so incredibly early, and numbers greatly vary not only from person to person but also from pregnancy to pregnancy. Do your best to take it easy right now and let your body do its thing. Drink lots of water too!
    Me:41, DH:41 Positive for MTHFR mutations- one copy C677T, one copy A1298C. One daughter born on Thanksgiving in 2013. Six losses.

    Thanks ladies!
    Going in around 2:30 for my second beta.  Not sure if I'll be able to get the results before we leave for vacation but the nurse was hopeful we would.  I've been keeping myself busy and trying to get my mind on other things (good thing my 3 year old is good at that).  Grasping to every little bit of hope that this is it! lmielocl1 and rcbuko, your stories make me feel better. 13 or 14 dpo today (right? If I got my positive surge on Thursday Aug. 8th at nighttime ~ , then I ovulated 24-36 hrs afterwards? still trying to figure out all these numbers.  I just want this so badly. Sigh.
    I'll keep you posted! Thanks everyone for all your support. I really like this board!  <3

    Well, I guess we'll all have to wait.  The lab didn't get the results on time before my Dr.s office closed. Awesome. Just awesome.

    I guess I'll go have fun with Mickey and hope for the best... That's all i can do. Grrrrr.
