Infertility

Beta #2 :)

Beta 1- 9dp6dt 185

Beta 2- 11dp6dt 412!!!!

I am super happy with these numbers!  This is already off to a much better start than FET#1.  I am still having some dark brown spotting but I've been reassured that this can be normal.  Beta #3 is Wednesday and first ultrasound is at 7 weeks which seems like so far away.  Thanks for all your support so far and doubling vibes!

  • Yeah! Those are great numbers!!! 
    Five IUI 's and two 3 day IVF transfers and two chemical pregnancies. Unknown to me at the time was that I was hypothyroid and had endometriosis. All that heartache and money and I would have never gotten pregnant. Time for new RE. New RE found the thyroid and endo. I had another 5 day transfer in April when all 7 embryos arrested on day four. Transferred three morali and didn't conceive. Thyroid function is excellent now. DH SCSA came back perfect. Now for IVF number four in June 2013. I had two perfectly expanded blasts put back and five frosties! I have never gotten this far! Now to wait for blood test on 6/26. My heart is In my throat! Please let this work, BFP with HPT 7 days and 8 days after transfer.
