AH: Rocky 3 is still rockin' (BFP warning) -- Update 1/10 4th Beta good

Rocky 3 is still ticking in there!

@Manada and I did a frozen embryo transfer of a day 3 embryo on December 19. On Dec 27, we got a positive on a FRER pregnancy test. Because we were traveling, our first beta wasn't until Friday, January 2 (14dp3dt). Our beta came back at 665! Today (16dp3dt) our beta was 1859!

Our next beta is Tuesday. And then, if things look good, we will do a 6 week ultrasound the following week.

This is very exciting and very scary!

As many of you know, Manada and I lost our twins (Rocky 1 and Rocky 2-- Tavin and Casey) at 21 weeks gestation. M carried T & C. We transferred Rocky 3 into me.

January 6 update-- Our third beta also more than doubled and came back at 4449 today. It was a long 5.75 hours waiting for them to call!

We go in again in 3-4 days for another beta (common practice at our clinic) and then will have our first ultrasound January 14-16, which should be 6w1d-6w3d.

January 10 update-- Our fourth beta came back today at 12,251. Doubling time of 66 hours, which apparently is very good because doubling slows the higher your beta gets. It's just hard to go from more than doubling in 48 hours to less than doubling in 48 yours (because I have PGAL and PGAIF brain and look for all signs something is wrong). But I know I should be very happy about these numbers so I'm gonna be.

Since our clinic did 4 betas, this AH (attention hog) post has become very attention hoggy, but I know that some people knew to look for results today, so I didn't want to not post.

Ultrasound next week Jan 14.


Let's go Rocky 3!
****loss discussed*****

We're queer. I'm 33, have severe stage 4 endo, and had both fallopian tubes removed. My love ("Manada" on the boards, 32) was diagnosed with diminished ovarian reserve. We did Partner IVF (my eggs, her uterus). We lost our twins Tavin and Casey at 21 weeks gestation.

Our IUIs
with @Manada: IUI# 1-7 (December 2012- September 2013) all BFN. Tried natural, femara, clomid, puregon/follistim, clomid and menopur combo, both the ovidrel and HCG triggers.

Our IVFs:
IVF #1 my eggs November/December 2013: Cancelled IVF due to poor response

IVF #2 my eggs/Manada's uterus January/February 2014
BCPs and lupron overlap Stimmed: 1/22-2/2: Bravelle and Menopur (dosage ranged from B300 and M150 to B375 and M150 to B300 and M225)
2/4 retrieved 10 eggs. Endo was much worse than expected. Only 3 eggs fertilized; February 7 transferred two day 3 embryos, froze one. All great condition.
BFP eve of 6dp3dt; Beta 1 (11dp3dt): 110; Beta 2 (13dp3dt): 175; Beta 3 (15dp3dt): 348; Beta 4 (19dp3dt): 2222; Beta 5 (21dp3dt): 4255
1st ultrasound (3/6  6w 1d): TWINS!!!! Twin A measuring 6w1d with a heartbeat of 118bpm. Twin B measuring 6w0d with a heartbeat of 113bpm. 

***July 18, 2014 we lost our beautiful babies at 21 weeks gestation. They were born too early. Tavin Sara T. and Casey Elizabeth T. are beautiful and precious and we will love them and miss them forever.***

FET #1 December 2014
Intralipid infusion on Dec 10. Transfer of 1 day 3 nine-cell embryo into my uterus on Dec. 19. (acupuncture immediately before and after)
BFP on Dec. 27; Beta 1 Jan 2 (14dp3dt): 665, Beta 2 Jan 4 (16dp3dt): 1859, Beta 3 Jan 6 (18dp3dt): 4449, Beta 4 Jan 10 (22dp3dt): 12,251.

  • What wonderful news! I could not be more excited for you all. I cannot imagine the emotions that you and @manada are feeling. I sincerely hope that Rocky 3 is your take home baby, but I know that there are many hurdles and milestones to pass first. For now, I hope for a strong third beta!
