1st Beta b/w this morning... now just waiting...

Chiqui · June 2009

and waiting... it's going to be a long morning/afternoon. I'm scared to death... I really hope this is my sticky baby. I'm trying not to think about it, but it's so hard. Late last night I had a little brown discharge (sorry tmi) and this morning my nurse told me not to worry about it... but of course, all I do is worry. Please give me strength.

Thanks

I used to lurk a lot of the knot/nest boards, but since my miscarriage in March it's been very helpful to talk with people of this board. I'm so grateful. So, I?ve always wanted children. My husband and I married in 2005 (I was 25 and he was 26). I wanted to start having children, but my husband wanted to enjoy a few years of married life, which I agreed, because I wanted him to want it and be ready.

So now we?re ready, we have been ttc with my ob since last year, January (we were trying 6+ before that being unprotected). She diagnosed me with PCOS. My ob put me on clomid for a few cycles (unmonitored? I didn?t know that I really should have been monitored) then in September I was told I should see an RE.

My girlfriend referred me to her RE, who I absolutely adore. My first visit with him was on Halloween last year and we started on a couple rounds of clomid, which I was monitored. Then my RE started me on Clomid and Menopur for our January cycle, which worked. We got our BFP in early February. Our first beta numbers were extremely high and they thought it was multiples for sure? then my 2nd beta was rising, but not doubling. Same for the third beta so then they gave me an u/s and we saw the sac, no fetal pole since it was still very early. Then my second u/s in March was when we learned it wasn?t growing and that I would naturally miscarry. I did not have any bleeding or spotting, but my sore boobs did go away. Then a few weeks later my body caught up and I miscarried and bled very heavily to regular for two weeks.

This is our second cycle since our miscarriage? I think having an HSG really helped us because my tubes were very, very sluggish. The radiologist said now they were clear and flowing nicely. That was my second time doing the HSG, the first attempt was unsuccessful? they couldn?t get the balloon open.

I really hope I get good numbers today (crosses fingers).

Thanks for asking about my story? I really appreciate all the support from his board. You guys are just amazing.
