TTC after 35

Repost from Infertility: Need positive thoughts for tomorrow

The nurse just called.  Beta #4 was this morning and it didn't double... again.  My beta #s have been: #1: 350; #2: ~760 (more than doubled); #3: 1260 (not quite doubled); #4: 2159 (again, not doubled). 

My RE is concerned that it could be ectopic.  I'm going in for a sono tomorrow.  FREAKING OUT!!  My heart feels like it's pounding out of my chest. We have waited so long to even get a BFP!!!  I don't know that I can handle this if it doesn't work or if there is something seriously wrong. 

I need all of the positive thoughts I can get that our little guy is in the right place and that things are OK.

  • TRUCKLOADS of positive vibes your way, DMD.

    How far apart are your betas? I ask because the general guidelines are for at least a 60 percent increase every 2-3 days, and you seem to be well within that.

    I can't tell you how much I want this to work out for you.

    (((hugs))))

     

  • My betas have been every 48 hrs.
