Success after IF

Beta 3 and 4

Even though I told myself I was going to relax and wait from Monday until Friday to go in for another draw I ended up going back in on Wednesday as well.  The nurse gave in and put in an order after I called her back basically begging ;)

Wednesday my beta was 400 even and today (Friday) it came back at 818.  Progesterone was in the mid 30's both times.    

I was really hoping it would be a little higher, but it did technically double (with 18 extra points) so I'll take it.  Naturally I looked back at all of my betas from my other kids and was comparing them to these and my numbers with them more than  *just* doubled every time.     

There is another order put in for Sunday, but I might just wait until Monday morning.  We'll see how anxious I get about it all!
