TTC after 35

ugh this sucks- WTF! (bfp/cp mentioned)

So if you read my post about my bfp and was told it was a chemical pg according to my low betas on Thursday.  I went all weekend and no blood...not even a smidge.  Felt "off"...this morning.  Took a digital test this morning  and it is still positive.  I guess I should go in for additional beta's... I just want to move on!  My beta was only a 10 on thursday... how can I still be showing a positive?!

  • I think anything over 5 is still considered positive.  What did your doctor told you, just to wait it out?

    I was told to come in for a repeat beta on monday... I was out of town yesterday so didn't go in... honestly decided I wasn't going to go in today since my beta on thursday was so low.  I took an OPK test today to see if my body was trying to surge because my boobs were sore... it was super dark which was weird... I knew it was too soon.  So I had one last digit test left and thought I should double check... it came back positive.  I thought the hcg should be out since my test was so low on thursday but I guess not....

  • Maybe you should consider to go in to take the beta again.  My RE insisted that I need to go in for beta until they are reached to 0.  I am so sorry you need to go throught this, super annoying. 
  • Go in for another beta. I've seen ladies on the boards with numbers as low as seven go on to take home a baby. Focus on the doubling time, not the number.

    BFP#2 2.5.11 (EDD 10.15.11) DS born 9.28.11

    BFP#4 8.27.13 (EDD 5.6.14) DD born 4.23.14

  • First of all, I just want to say I am sorry that you are going thru this Beta Hell....

    But, as all the ladies have said, go in for another beta.  Assumption is not a good thing to go on.  I know you are upset but try to be strong and go in and find out if, your numbers are doubling or what is the case.

    Best of luck and sending you Big Hugs!  Take care.....please, keep us posted.

    I did go in this afternoon for my second betas... talked to my nurse and she is as confused as I am.  She said could be a lab error, my o was super late or late implantation, ectopic, or my body isn't expelling like it should.  Won't know until tomorrow morning... I am to take progesterone supps tonight just in case... ugh more waiting.
