Waving hello & joining from TTTC

Hello! I am joining you lovely ladies from TTTC. Just a little back ground for those of you on mobile and cant see my siggy. DH and I have been together for 12 years I am 26, hes 27 and we got our BFP on Friday 9dpIUI...which would make me 4 weeks today. We conceived through IUI b/c of my PCOS. I was scared to join your guys because I have suffered from a loss before and I was extremely scared. My first beta came in today at 14dpIUI and the lucky number is 287. I thought my RE's office would want me to come in for another beta test but she said that they only test again when a beta is less than 100. Makes me kinda nervous. And b/c I am on progesterone suppositories she said they dont check the progestrone level because the suppositories throw off the number...which also makes me nervous. Has anyone had any experience with this?
I am so happy to finally be joining you ladies for the next 9 months and I cant wait for it to all sink in.

    Welcome!!

    Every RE is kinda different.  I've heard some don't put as much stock into the progesterone test if you are supplementing it, but I understand some concern because the norm is to check beta a progesterone a few more times.  Really, you had a great first beta number, so it's time to celebrate being pregnant!


    Me 33, DH 37 -- TTC since Jan'12 -- Low AMH (0.78) & endo, SA w/ low motility
    IUI's 1-3 = BFN, IVF converted to IUI 4/13 = BFN
    IVF 1.2: 8R 6M 4F -- 2 blastocysts frozen, FET 8/15 = BFP!!
    Beta #s = 445;1,098; 9,545  -- EDD 5/2 -- Team Pink!
    Camila Josephine arrived 4/30 :)

    Welcome and congrats! If you're worried can you explain your concern due to previous loss and request another beta even if it's not their standard practice?
