TTC after 35

Well, doesn't that just SUCK.........

Went in for my beta #1 today..........drumroll........BFP!!!!!!

Aha, but there's a catch (*sigh*)......the number is REALLY low (15), so RE says she's uncertain that this will be a viable pg.  She said there may have been late implantation which is causing the low number.  We will not know until I go back Monday for beta #2.

This is my first BFP (I couldn't even get a + on my OPKs.....EVER!) and now I'm going to spend the entire weekend worrying about whether or not I get to keep it.  I really want to be excited, but just can't. 

 What makes it worse is that I can't even go home and relax with a glass of wine and unwind!  THIS SUCKS!!!!

But enough of my pity party.  On the positive side, I have hope knowing at least my body is able to get pg at all........I was beginning to wonder if it was possible.  So......if not viable, we'll just move on to the next cycle with even more force!

Thanks for listening!

  • Hang in there, many a pregnancy started with low numbers and worked out just fine.

    And one number doesn't mean much in the grand scheme of things.

    GL with the next beta!

  • Hoping you get great news on Monday. Try and enjoy your weekend! :)

  • Good luck Monday.  I hope you just have a late implanter.
  • Congratulations to you.  A + is a +.  My beta at 14dpo was low too - my doctor told me I was a minute pg.  :D  Your H sounds very sweet.  Sending sticky vibes your way.
