my RE called (that never happens, it's always a nurse). as soon as i heard his voice, i knew it was bad news.
my beta went from 85 to 87 in 48 hours. he wants me to continue my progesterone until thursday when i should go in for one more beta, but there is only about a 5% chance that the embryo is still developing. if thursday's beta establishes that nothing is happening, i have to keep going for monitoring until my hcg hits zero.
i am so sad right now. it's crazy how saturday i was so happy, i was pregnant. how quickly things can change.
he was very positive on the phone, said i responded well to everything and that if we do this again he expects the same.
i just can't think about that right now. since may our lives have been consumed by IF. we need to take a little break i think. have a nice wine-filled vacation or something, and not think about our next steps for a little while. i'll still be here with you ladies though, you are the best.

Oh, I'm so sorry. I've been in your shoes. Nothing is worse than expecting great news and hearing: well your numbers didn't go up like they should. This really really sucks.
You never know though.... it could be okay. But when I was there, I didn't want to hear about the "maybe long shots" because it hurt.
I do hope you get through this quickly so you know exactly where you stand and don't spend much time in limbo.
Keep your chin up!
