Pregnant after IF

They finally called! Beta # 3!!!

So I think my clinic is trying to kill me by waiting until after 5pm to call me with results.  I've been waiting all day to hear from them, have called my patient voicemail about a dozen times, and finally they call.  And my smartphone decides to not let me answer the phone.  Seriously?!  I had to wait for them to leave me a voicemail to listen to it. 

My HCG is 3748.5 (a doubling time of 39 hours exactly!) and my P4 is 19.9.  I switched over to Crinone 2x a day in the middle of last week, so they want me to up to 3x a day now.  It's making me nervous that it keeps dropping.  It started off at 24 then 22 now 20.

She said I could go in either tomorrow or Wednesday for my first u/s, but DH is stuck working long hours this week and can't get off at all and I'm not going without him.  He has his off day on Friday, so I'm hoping I can call back tomorrow (they're closed now) and schedule it for then.  Friday I'll be 6 weeks exactly and it's my birthday!  What a great gift that would be to see my LO for the first time.  :)

    That's what I was thinking.  Even though it's hard to turn down getting in a few days early, I am hoping that at 6 weeks we would have a better chance of maybe seeing a heartbeat.  :)

    That's what I've always heard, that only PIO shows up in b/w and not vag. supps.  But when I mentioned that to my nurse she completely shot that down and said she didn't know where I heard that from... that they always check P4 levels and adjust supps accordingly.  So I'm just going along with it even though I think things are probably fine as-is.  Better safe than sorry!
