@zamora_spin Thank you so much for your kind words. I told myself I was going to stay off Google when she gave me the news, because I didn't want to give myself any false hope. She literally said she thought it was a CP, and that it didn't look good. But the more I look into it myself, the more I agree with with you. She should have just told me my numbers weren't doubling, and that we'd follow up again on Wednesday. Instead I've been sick to my stomach, and my husband has been pretty broken up too. Wednesday cannot get here fast enough.
@hollyyyyy so many fingers crossed for you. I really hope she's wrong... and when she is, make sure you tell her how could have handled the situation alittle better.

@Hollyyyyy So many fingers crossed for you. I definitely think you should raise your doctor's attitude and handling of the situation with her after all of this. She could have addressed it better.
I'm keeping everything crossed that your doctor overreacted/jumped the gun, and you have a sticky bean who's just take his/her time snuggling down tight @Hollyyyyy Keep us updated, friend!
As for the FFFC thread: I've never used the ignore button, but I may start to. Part of me just doesn't want to deal with that ish, but the other part doesn't want to let them sit there and be assholes and not have someone call them out. But, in all honesty, I don't see anywhere where either of them would give enough of a fudge to want to change their mindset, so it would be wasted breath. Regardless, they both were put on sticky notes. I also have someone else who just rubs me the wrong way, but I feel like that's more of a personal problem, lol.
@izza2 That was some awesome science info you dropped in the flu shot thread.
I was super cranky this morning and it really pissed me off seeing someone say they're a health professional and the government is out to get us and they didn't get the flu shot for that reason, and then be a total ass when someone tried to engage in conversation. Like seriously, people like that are why people who work in health care get bad reps.
Thanks again everyone for all the support. It means so much to me! I am feeling much better today, and am definitely in a better minset. I think now I'm at least mentally prepared as much as I can be for either good or bad news. I'm not doing a very good job of laying low on here haha.
@krashke Yeah I don't care that I got a warning at all, I'm just surprised it was for something so mild! If I knew I would have been warned either way, maybe I would have been less choosy about my words. It is hard to keep your mouth shut when people are spewing asinine nonsense, but like @izza2 said, I don't think there was any getting through to them
Question about the ignore feature, does it just block comments, or does it also block any threads that person starts?
Also possible +1 on the person who is grating on everyone's nerves. Pretty sure you can add me to the club (unless I'm way off and thinking of the wrong person)!
Maybe this is a trivial question - but what does a "warning" on the bump actually mean? Is it like demerits in school? Or points taken off your driver's license? I'm assuming they can ban people, but that would have to be for something pretty egregious, right?
It's supposed to be 6 months, I think. But sometimes they don't automatically fall off and that's when people end up in bump jail and have to argue with the idiots that can be the BGs.
Complete lurker here but @doxiemoxie212 and @krashke you should both create second bump accounts so that when you get the ban hammer (likely in second or third tri) you don’t have to wait three days to post. I’m just sayin... it is early and there are some awesome characters sharing your BMB. Lurker out.
@NamelessAria Congrats girl!! I remember you from when I first came back to TTGP. I'm so glad you got a fun little surprise this time around
@izza2 Thanks friend! I was away from Thurs-Mon on a fun weekend getaway with my girlfriend. We left our kids and hubbies home and went to Wilmington, NC. It was glorious. I had my betas this morning and they went from 143 last Wed to 2506 today at 21DPO! I'm so relieved. I get my first internal sono next week to check for heartbeat.
Now I need to go read the FFFC thread...on this board?
@Hollyyyyy What DPO are you with that beta number? They vary SO much this early on. I was worried about mine being 143 last week but it does take time for them to get up where they need to be. I really hope and pray your numbers keep going up.
Fwiw, much lower hcg levels were reported (lowest was 11 it says) at 21DPO than yours. That website only accepts numbers from those who went on to see a heartbeat. I am hoping so hard that your little bean is just taking extra time to get settled in there.
@TravelingCouple Thank you for the well wishes and information I'm not ready to leave you guys! My next draw is tomorrow. I go in at 10am, do my draw, then wait for an hour for my results, so I'll have them to discuss with my RE at 11. I'll be sure to update tomorrow once I know anything!
@TravelingCouple That is a great resource. I think the takeaway is that the range of "normal" is very wide with betas. @Hollyyyyy We are all rooting for you! Will be watching for your update.
Thank you guys all so much! It's so overwhelmingly amazing to have this kind of support system. My H and I haven't even told anyone IRL that we were even expecting, so other than my RE, it's pretty much just us. I feel so grateful and blessed to have you guys!!
Damn I wish I hadn't missed the FFFC because I would've had a few choice words for that douche canoe. I really think she/he was a troll though, that was incredibly low and a quick "I'm sorry" turnaround.
Hi friends! I can't believe I get to join you here! I got a vvfl on a Wondfo on Sunday, followed by several negative Wondfos and FRERs. Then got another vvfl on a FRER yesterday. About that...can I post a message here to all my lurking friends from TTGP? Guys, I feel like the biggest b*tch in the entire world for posting what I did on the CS/Q thread yesterday morning. Please know that at the time I was absolutely certain it was a faulty test because I didn't understand why all the other tests (even FRERs) were negative. So please accept my deepest apologies and I hope you all know that it was not my intention to hurt anyone and I definitely did not mean to accidentally post a BFP. I'm so glad that I met you all and loved getting to know each and every one of you! FX so hard for you all as always. I could go on and on groveling for forgiveness at your feet, so I'll cut it off here. ((Hugs)) Phew, glad to get that off my chest because I've felt like garbage since yesterday! I'm so happy to be joining you guys here, I've missed you all!
