Bfp. More than a turkey in the oven...update

Jenniferk08Jenniferk08 member
edited December 2015 in TTC after 35
I'm going this morning to see my doc but I got a Bfp last weekend. I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop. Every morning I'm testing with a wondflo AND a digital test because I don't trust either. The line on the wondflo has been getting darker so I guess that's a good sign.

I went through the same thing last year but the line was hard to see and then AF showed up.

My boobs hurt but I'm also having cramping on and off all day. Seems to be worse if I get stressed out. Hopefully I will have good news this afternoon.


Update 12/08/15 my betas were only 151 and low progesterone on Friday so I had to redo my bloods yesterday 12/7/15.
They called me today and while my betas have doubled my progesterone is still low. I'm going to go on some progesterone suppositories and we will redraw my bloods on Monday. I'm scheduled for an u/s the 23rd.

    Thank you everyone. They confirmed the positive with a urine test. I'm getting blood work done but because it's Friday I may not get the answers until Monday but they are trying to rush it.

    Going crazy waiting for my results. Then I have my first u/s on 12/23 and an appt with the midwife who does the confirmations.

    I pray that there are lots of Bfp for all the ladies here the rest of this year and next.

    I heard back from my doc and my beta are according to them very low. It was only 151. I have to go back to repeat and we'll see from there. If it's still low I'll have to go back again.

    @Jenniferk08 - Is this your first beta? What day are you on? There's such a wide range so I wouldn't worry too much (although I know it's so hard not to worry). You really just want to see them doubling. Fingers crossed for some good doubling action. I'll be thinking of you!

    Yes Friday was my first beta. Today is day 34 I think. Get a little confused with dates. Fertility friend shows today as 19/34.
