Thanks so much. Looks like I'm having a chemical pregnancy. My number was 5.9. I still haven't bled so waiting for that. I have a bachelorette party this weekend so this is going to be so hard. I'm devastated.
@Drove2u that's awful. I'm so sorry. It's like a sick tease

@Drove2u : are they having you come back in case it increases? FX for you...on the bright side though, it's a step in the right direction, even though I agree it's a sick tease
Oh @Drove2u I am so so sorry . I would wonder too if you are going back for another test because technically that is still within the "normal " range from what I have read . Even if it is low it could go up right ? I don't understand these things ! I am so sorry - wish I could give you a hug . Is your party all weekend or will you have some time to yourself ?

Thanks everyone. I'm kind of trying to be hopeful until I start bleeding. Party is all weekend. Picking up a friend at 6 we have a three hour drive and then back home Sunday. Do you all think it's possible that it can rise? The doctor just said to call when I start my period.
@Drove2u my heart is breaking for you! I don't know how that works with a level just over 5. I'll keep my fingers crossed that it does!!
Married to DH 10/6/12
TTC since 5/14
Unexplained with (controlled) hypothyroidism and suspected ovulatory dysfunction (but, I do ovulate on my own)
Clomid 50 mg 3/15 (unmonitored) - BFN
Clomid 50 mg + metformin 4/15 (unmonitored) - BFN
First RE appt. 5/15; Natural cycle 5/15 monitored with 2 mature follicles and Pregnyl Trigger (full dose) + prometrium - BFN
6/15 HSG - clear tubes & normal uterus; great PCT test results
TI - 100 mg Clomid + prometrium (AM & PM) + vaginal estrace (AM & PM) 6-7/15 (monitored) --> no additional response and thinned lining - BFN
TI - Injectables (follistim + Gonal-F, Ganirelix, & 1/2 dose Pregnyl) + prometrium (AM & PM) 9/15 --> 3-7 mature follicles (3 definites and 4+ that could have matured due to trigger) @ O -->BFN + 5 large cysts
@drove2u are they sure it's a chemical and not just late implantation? I am so sorry if it is a chemical. But is there any chance you have similar to @mskeenan going on?? Try to let yourself have fun at the bachelorette party and not think about all this baby stuff (easier said than done, I know!) sending hugs
@mskeenan have you heard yet? Fingers crossed it doubled again!!!
Thanks @rachlee2010 I'm holding on to hope until I start bleeding. Once that happens I'll know it's a no go for sure. I considered not going to the Bach party because I'm so upset but it will be a good distraction. Otherwise it will be a pity party for one. And the Bach party is yoga, a winery and white dinner party. So low key. :-) Bach parties went from male strippers to this. We're just getting old. :-) I'll try to check in when I can.
@Drove2u yes please try to enjoy yourself this weekend ! The bachelorette party sounds fun ! Hopefully it will be a good distraction . I know it's impossible to not think about this stuff but at least you will be with friends !! And yes it could be late implantation . I think unless AF comes you are not out . I know it's not as likely but I've read stories from women that were not given hope by docs and got perfectly healthy kids . I'm trying to focus on that .
@rachlee2010 no I have not heard and I am furious . My doc always calls the same day and they said they would be in touch this afternoon . I tried calling at 4 and got the emergency line as they office closed early . I'm hoping the nurses are still working and will give me a call but it's almost six . How could they forget ?! I have been anxious all day crying and then praying and getting my hope back . I am just sick of nurses acting like I shouldn't be at all excited . Every interaction I have with them they act like it's over for me . I just need answers now . Aaahhh

I'm so sorry @mskeenan. On Wednesday you were at 27 right? so it only went up 3 in the two days? Do they say it will start lowering now? I am so sorry. Infertility is so cruel and in the case to get your hopes up (which I would too, how could you not when you a get a positive, no matter how "weak" it is.
Sending lots of hugs and hoping it can all end soon so you can start over and hopefully get a sticky BFP
I got a call finally . They said its a chemical pregnancy . My number only went up to 30 . I am beside myself . My heart is breaking .
My heart is breaking for you too. My stomach just dropped reading that. Worst news and what an emotional roller coaster it must be.

Thank you @Rachlee2010@babyexpress and @laur2444 . I really do appreciate everyone's support and prayers through all of this. I'm sorry our group didn't have more successes this month-I am hoping October will be better for us all!!
I don't even know how to feel right now. My husband is even more upset than I expected. I cried so hard my head hurts. This week has been an emotional rollercoaster. In some ways I am relieved its over because I had a feeling that something wasn't right the whole time. I feel like blaming myself but I know that is irrational. There is nothing I could have done-these things just happen. I know just getting a positive, even if it was weak, is a huge blessing. I just can't help but feel a huge loss.
Prayers and lots of love for everyone.
