Just when I had lost all hope

wifey006 · October 2009

we saw a heartbeat today! My betas we're not doubling but rising at about 50%, then they began to drop. I've been in tears for days thinking that I'm having a third loss. Last week the u/s only showed a gest sac. Since then hcg went down slightly. This morning I figured would be confirmation of the obvious and to my delightful surprise we found a strong hb! Of course I'm still beyond scared but somehow I'm now hopeful after seeing the beautiful flicker. My doctor said she wants to review my file with another doctor and she'll call me later. Whew, what a week this has been.

Congrats! This is wonderful news!!

The same thing happened to me with this PG- I went in for an u/s before I talked to to the doc about whether to have a D&C, etc. but they found a HB!!

I will keep you in my T & P.

I know that your story will be an inspiration to others who are dealing with slow rising betas, and hope that the rest of your pregnancy is much more reassuring.
