Pregnant after a Loss

I'm not a lurker (...at least for today)!

I am trying to keep my hopes in check given my history and how early it is. But I got a faint positive on a FRER yesterday at 12 dpo and it looked darker to me this morning. However, I took two CBE digitals yesterday and two this morning and they're both still negative. I'm not overly worried since I know they're less sensitive, sensitivity can vary by box, and the FRER line looks a little darker.

I'm glad I have a little bit of increase in peeing and definite nausea and fatigue. But my dreams haven't gotten too funky yet. I had a big temp jump this morning but I also started progesterone again as soon as I got the positive yesterday.

Because of sow various issues with my current RE's office I am pretty sure I'll be calling my OBGYN's office tomorrow morning for a beta draw. I'm just really worried I'll end up in the same place as I was two or three times of the five previous times. In beta hell. The beloved beta roller coaster. I dread the thought so much I almost don't want to get my blood drawn.

Of course, even though the symptoms are there and the FRERs were positive, the digital being negative is still getting to my PGAL brain.

So I'll put out an advance apology if I don't stay long - I hate intro-ing and then having to say goodbye so quickly which has happened in the past.

But for today anyway I'm not a lurker!!! And I'm happy about that and hoping you all will hold me close. This is such an amazing support network and I am so lucky to know so many of you already. I am sooooooo happy for so many of the TTCAL ladies I have gotten to know. And I really look forward to getting to know everyone else! I just hope I can stay around long enough to do that this time.

To any TTCAL lurkers... I absolutely cannot find enough words to say how much the board has meant to me. Still means to me. I know I've taken a few breaks over the time I've been active, but I have always been lurking as much as possible and always keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers. Sending SO much love to you ladies and hoping to start a wave of grads!
