Trying to Get Pregnant

Update on High Betas after Assumed C/P

Hi All, here is the update you requested last night!

My clinic called me this morning and told me due to my bleeding and high betas it was urgent that I go in for an ultrasound today. I went in this afternoon and told the ultrasound tech what happened. DH was there holding my hand and we were both shaking because we were terrified we would see a dead baby on the screen or something would be wrong.

After sitting in silence for about 30 seconds, the tech told us that there is a baby with a HB of 168. We both just started loudly sobbing. I got to see the baby and see the HB.

It turns out that I am 10 weeks and not 6. The bleeding turned out to be due to two small cysts near the placenta which are about the size of a marble and a dime. My doc says that everything looks fine and healthy and that my chance of m/c at this point is at or less than 3%. My new EDD is 1/10/14.

Thank you so, so much to everyone for all of your support and for passing on so much knowledge. I know there is no way we could have gotten pregnant so soon if I hadn't learned so much from you all. I am keeping my fingers crossed for everyone to get their BFP soon.
