TTC after 35

Happy to Sad

Well I went back to the doctor this morning for more blood work. I received the call this afternon that wasn't good.

My beta went from 9 last week ( Positive pregnancy test) to a negative number today.

I'm waiting for the doctor to call to discuss next steps.

I knew this could happen but was hopeful that I would get pregnant and stay pregnant.

Now that I have had a few hours to cry and tell family I think I'm ok. I'm thinking about a glass of wine or beer - since I haven't had a drink since Oct.23.

The positive side is that I can get pregnant and that is hopeful to me. We will try again when we get the go ahead.

Good luck to everyone out there TTC!

Carrie

 

ps. JillAly - I'm thinking of you and hoping all is well with you.

  • I'm sorry, Carrie.

    I know first hand what you're going through - many of us do.

    It's very, very hard.

    But you are right - this means you CAN get pregnant.

    Fingers crossed that happens again for you, very soon.

    (((hugs)))

  • Oh no!!!!  Carrie- I'm so sorry.  I'm in tears reading this.  I'm glad you were able to get pregnant but I know you wanted this to work so badly.  I will be cheering for you for your next round.  Did you talk to your RE about what you will do?

    My beta didn't double within 48 hours but it was very close (99 to 190) and people keep telling me it's 48-72 hours not just 48 hours which mine was.  I am just hoping it gets better but I won't really know more until Thursday when I got back for another beta. 

    3 IUI's and 2 IVF's later- Brady arrived. Born at 36 weeks after PUPPS and pre-e/HELLP.
    IUI- BFN IVF #1 -BFP! Allie is our 2nd IVF baby. Born at 36 1/2 weeks after pre-e again

  • I'm so sorry, Carrie!  I can definitely relate to the ups and downs...it's so disappointing and heartbreaking.  Many hugs to you and try to remain hopeful for the future.

  • I am so sorry.  Like many others here, I know how painful, disappointing, and unfair that feels!  You are in my thoughts.
  • My first thought when I saw the subject line was "Oh no!" I am so sad that you are having to go through this! You have such a wonderful positive attitude, and you're 100% right in the way you're thinking. It can and WILL happen again for you! I am so sorry for your loss. ::hugs::
