Well here are the numbers from 13dpo ladies.

HCG=165
Progesterone=12.5

According to my doc the numbers look good and he is feeling confident. I can only compare them to my two losses this year and they are def higher. No spotting this time around and no need for progesterone supplements thus far. I go back Monday at 18dpo for another round. Results to follow Tuesday.

Feeling cautiously optimistic but we are not allowing ourselves to get excited yet. I'm just trying to chill while staying away from Dr. Google.I gave this to God so I have to keep reminding myself it's out of my hands and just go with the flow for now.

My fingers are crossed for all those testing today and this weekend!!!

***UPDATE***
Well received my results from yesterday, 18dpo and thank God the numbers look great, HCG=1,291. I am officially feeling confident and enjoying the today but we are still very cautious. I will def be looking for grad posts. Please continue to keep us in your prayers. You ladies have been truly amazing and helped me through some dark days. I wish each of you the very best, a life time of happiness and your rainbow baby's.

  • Wonderful news. Congrats!
  • Thanks @thistle8677 . Doc offered me a sonogram for next week but we declined. Going in 9/7 at 7 weeks and we'll go from there. Trying to just go with the flow like I did before the bfp. How are you doing?
  • @Goldsgirl9 loving the updates ;)
    I'm fine. Meh. AF showed today. I texted with SO's mother today, and we were agreeing that everything amazing is worth waiting for, so that's what I'm keeping in my mind's eye for the time being.

  • @thistle8677 I'm sorry AF showed. Try the maya massage. I am positive, if nothing else, it released some blocked chi. I don't know why it was such a turning point for me but it was although I think you're on the right track.
  • @Goldsgirl9 omg. You had the massage and got pg! I just put that together...I'm a little slow on the uptake these days.
    Okay, I'm in. I actually did find a woman here in Portland I've just been trigger shy so far.
    I will make an appt ASAP.
    Thank you for the suggestion!

  • @thistle8677 I don't know if that gave me the bfp but it def helped change my outlook on everything and I think the combo helped for sure. It's really unexplainable. Totally do it!!!! PS- Pm'd you!
  • @Goldsgirl9 - how did you find the Mayan massage practitioner??

  • @emsmama15 I googled it and then researched the practitioners I found. The place I select had great reviews. In fact, one read "if you have a vagina, you must take it to the red tent spa". I think your practitioner will play a big part in your process. I'm not sure I got a bfp because of it but I do know my entire outlook was changed after that massage.

    At minimum they say it releases blocked chi because woman keep their stress, anxiety, fears, jealousy, etc in their gut. I read one article where a woman cried during her experience. I didn't cry but I went with an open mind. Good luck!
  • OMG I just read this!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!! H&H 9 months!!!

    I'm also counting down the days to my Maya massage at this point eheh
