Beta update - BFP

Desmo35Desmo35 member
in Trouble TTC

My third beta is in at 160. My doubling time is 38 hours. I started with a 9, doubled to a 25 on Thursday and today is the 160.

I am still skeptical, but hopeful. An hcg of 160 seems quite low for 20dpiui, but it's rising on time. I am really not ready to cross over to PAIF, but I did do a cautious intro because I was hoping to find someone with a similar situation. I guess even if the betas weren't so low, I would still be skeptical and nervous. It's out of my hands. I wish I could be more excited about this news, but I guess that IF kinda takes it's toll on you.

 Thoughts and prayers are appreciated. I normally keep all friends and family updated on our situation, but this time I want to keep it private. I am thankful for this board to come to when I feel doubt, anger, & fear. Thank you.

BFP #1 6/16/2012 EDD 2/25/2013 MMC @ 7 weeks(found out at 10 weeks) 8/2/2012 BFP #2 2/8/2013 EDD 10/25/2013 Beta #1 56 Beta #2 62 Beta #3 156 Beta #4 665 Beta #5 1091 Blighted Ovum 2/27/2013

Prolactin was slightly high when I started with my RE and I already had an MRI which was Neg.  Endo biopsy=negative.  WTF is wrong with us???
