I am totally freaking out. After CD35 of my cycle, I went to my RE's office for bloodwork and an ultrasound.
After 8 (seriously 8!) negative HPT tests in the last 10 days, my HCG level came back at 6.5 and my progesterone was at 3. I still did not think anything of it and have been waiting for AF. My RE was planning to start me on Provera and then a medicated cycle with IUI next month.
So we retested on CD37, HCG level as up to 45! Holy shit, a very early pregnancy!
I am freaking out because after 8 negative tests last week, I went out and had a bunch of drinks with my girlfriends a few days ago. Please don't flame me- after 11 months of trying, I was just so certain my period would start any day.
Also totally confused with the timing of when we may have conceived. Either I ovulated much later than I thought (totally possible because my cycles are so wonky)? perhaps implantation occurred late? Or maybe I'm just one of those women with super low HCG rates?
I have another beta test Saturday. I have not told my husband yet because I want to be sure. Plus my parents are in town and we are busy entertaining.
Thanks this gives me hope that all my BFNs will eventually turn to positives!
And as to the drinks: No worries! My friend went wine tasting early in her pregnancy and didn't know it.
I went on a 6 MILE trail ride on horseback and I'm talkin hard core cowgirl riding. We could see wild turkeys and deer. I was probably about 5 weeks along.
Congrats! Keep us all posted!

Congratulations! Don't worry about the drinking. I asked the nurse at the RE's office about drinking and she said if you're testing regularly, by the time you get a BFP you won't even be sharing blood with the baby yet, so if you stop then you are fine. Hope that's reassuring.

Thank you again everyone! It's been fun to be a part of this board for the last few months (lurking and participating). I'm scared to officially move over to the June 2014 board... First ultrasound is 10/8, so hopefully I will feel better after seeing the heartbeat and confirming my EDD. I wish you all the best of luck in your TTC journeys! I hope to see many more BFP announcements over the next few months!!
