I broke the rules (bfp mentioned)-UPDATE

Re: I broke the rules (bfp mentioned)-UPDATE

  • I seriously want to cry. They called and the Nurse was all happy and said congrats, they doubled and gave me the number. I was in a happy fog and I wrote the number down and got back to work. I then thought to do the math and it didn't double. It went from 176 to 335. Unless I heard the number incorrectly? Also my progesterone went from 18 to only 19.5, she said that was really good and to keep taking my progesterone. Last pregnancy at my second draw my beta wasn't super high but my progesterone was like 50 something. I hate being in beta hell, but maybe I am not because she didn't seem concerned?

     

    So like a psycho I called and left another message to verify that she said 335 and not 355. I hate this, I hate this, I hate this. I SO wish I could be that stupid girl who giddily pees on a stick, sees a line and has zero idea that anything bad could happen.

  • Hugs honey, I know how rough this is and I'm so sorry you are going through all this. I have everything crossed for you that this LO sticks!!!

    Please don't worry about being psycho, I'm pretty sure I literally drove the nurses crazy last time I was in beta hell. It sucks and I'm just hoping that you get some good comforting info ASAP.

    TTC#1 May 2009- July 2010 on our own with no luck

    Started with RE in August 2010, dx with unexplained IF and then finally our 3rd IUI cycle using Follistim and Trigger resulted in our wonderful little man.  Born 12/2/11

    TTC#2 Never really prevented, but were careful early on as Dr. reccomended

    Surprise BFP 12/16/13, started progesterone immediately as first numbers came back low, but betas were good.  Progesterone wasnt enough. Natural MC 12/24/13.

  • Thanks @designer303, my DH is telling me that it is 1.9 times instead of 2 times the increase, which really is close. But you all know how this is. I went to the doubling calculator and it said it was a 51 hour doubling time, which isn't horrible. I don't know, I am going to try to relax, be happy that I am currently pregnant and ride this rollercoaster. Hopefully I will be holding a precious babe in October and I can tell them how much they freaking scared me.

  • Woooo, my doc called me back. From home. God I love this lady. I didn't get to talk to her because I was with a student (I'm a school nurse, it's cray cray today with parties). She left me a message and said she understands my worry, but she assured me that everything is fine, that it doesn't have to exactly double. She thinks my numbers look great and she left her pager for me to get ahold of her over the weekend if I need to.
