I haven't had any headaches but the 2nd day I had the worst back pain. I switched from taking vaginally to orally because I wouldn't be able to work with back pain( I work as a nurse in a busy clinic so I'm up and down all day). The bloating has been a lovely side effect as well!
@OGreat ya im on progesterone cream /pio and also on alot of estrogen pills/patches/crm and my face is broken out its soo ugly and ive had alot of sweating from it all too ugh
My first beta came back at 29.7 at 11dp2dt... my RE basically said, you're pregnant right now but don't get your hopes up. I'm trying to stay calm and leave it to God.

My first beta came back at 29.7 at 11dp2dt... my RE basically said, you're pregnant right now but don't get your hopes up. I'm trying to stay calm and leave it to God.
Thinking and praying for you! Stay positive and try to relax...I know it's so difficult to do but you are right you have to leave it to God at this point. It is possible that you implanted late causing a low beta. When do you back for your next one?
@hopeful_mom good luck! Hopefully the 3rd one is the charm.
*TW* I couldn't hold off my testing. I know my husband and I had an agreement not to test early but I couldn't help myself. I got 2 lines on the FRER test! I am in total shock! i haven't told my husband yet but plan to tell him tonight after work. Hopefully this LO sticks. I want to call my RE office but then again I don't want to be that crazy patient who tested before she was supposed to!
@ARB425 yay congrats i know icwas talking to my husband yesturday and i was like tomorrow ill be 5dp5dt and technically i can get a positive urine test he was like no ur not doing it haha
@ARB425 congrats!!! And I am always that patient. Lol so tell them!

@Hoping4Success . Thank you! I'm honestly surprised I was able to wait this long .
@sware2010 thank you! I was honestly thinking that last night. It was pretty intense back pain in my lower and mid back. I was using my husbands tens unit and it didn't really help which surprised me. Good of luck with your beta today! Hopefully your numbers have doubled!
@rainbowwishes5 at least I'm not the only one! I'm going to try to call later in the day!
@chartleib thank you! I honestly in disbelief and I don't really trust it until I get the blood work done. Good luck with testing, fingers crossed for you!
@ARB425 congrats to you! when is your beta for? I'm too nervous to test too early. Have you tested again? Hope your line continues to get darker!!

@Hopeful_mom I go in on Wednesday afternoon for my beta. I did a cheapie test when I got home from work and the line was lighter but then again it had only been about 3 hours since i last urinated.
@JDW0325 good luck! Thinking positive baby thoughts for you!
Joining you ladies over here and seeing lots of friendly faces from the November FET board. Had my transfer on Friday and am trying to maintain as much zen as I can in this TWW (3dpt my zen levels are pretty minimal but I swear I'm trying - haha). Congrats to all the + signs I see! My beta is next Monday the 28th.
@wifeinraleigh28 -I've been trolling that board but, for some reason, can't bring myself to post quite yet!! I think I'm still just too nervous since it's so early!!!

Totally get it @byrneme and @MicronesianMamma! My plan originally was to wait until after my first ultrasound but I needed a place to cope with the wait (I had to wait until 7 weeks). Talking with those ladies over there really helped me handle that long 3 week wait!

Very good point @wifeinraleigh28 - maybe I'll hope over after my 3rd beta results today. My u/s is scheduled for 12/5 and that seems ages away. I can't imagine waiting 7 weeks.

Ack, I should have clarified... it was a 3 week wait from beta to ultrasound, which put me at 7 weeks pregnant at my first scan. 7 weeks waiting would be impossible!! Yes, please come join us once you get some reassurance from beta #3!
