Just a little...

After the IVF consult on Friday, my nurse decided to reschedule the beta test from Sunday to Saturday! I guess she wanted to lessen my anxiety of waiting for beta (after BFN @ HPT).

So, I went in this morning for b/w... and got a call back this afternoon. The test is not negative! The HCG value is 8.6 and they normally like to see at least a 50 by this time in the cycle! So, I am just a little pregnant!!! I am supposed to go in again on Monday for another beta test. Not sure how viable this pregnancy is. But I am very happy that we at least reached this far! I see some hope for the future! :) For now, we are hoping and praying for the best and I am continuing the Prometrium suppository. I feel more cautious than excited!

For the symptoms this cycle: Besides the regular bloating, twinges etc (during/after medication)… My boo.bs have been super soar (like never before), I have had a consistent head ache and leg pain. Two days ago, nerves on my boo.bs started showing (just a little bit… something I had never noticed before). Last Monday, I had severe cramping twice in my uterus which lasted for a minute or two… the pain started from my uterus and went all the way down to my groin area. The pain/cramp was so sharp that I was breathless and felt disoriented. This had never happened to me before!

  2. oh, sweet thing! I TOTALLY understand how you must be feeling. we are in the same boat - I hope and pray for you - that you get out of this beta limbo land soon.

    I think maybe you did test early - especially since you were supposed to take the beta tomorrow.

    I will be praying and anxiously awaiting more news..
