So monday (13 dpo) my hcg was 10.2. Then wednesday (15dpo) I was 17. A 70% increase. The RE told me it was a chemical pregnancy and i should stop taking my meds, but they left it up to me and said I could retest friday. So after much debate with DH I decided to retest for my own peace of mind. Well, the level is still low at 41 but thats a 141% increase and the RE says stay on the meds, maybe something is happening. So I'm not out of the woods and wont have a definitive answer until the ultrasound but I'm still in the game. Next beta on tuesday.

This is an emotional rollercoaster. Any thoughts?

" Six more days. I started watching 7 week US's on youtube this morning. I'm trying to picture seeing my own little guys heartbeat. I'm getting so excited and so nervous at the same time. I'll be so happy to just feel the joy of this without all the doubt. "

" Well, more proof I can't do anything the easy way!!! Last night I ended up in the ER with cramping and a large amount of bleeding with lots and lots of clots. I had and HCG and to my surprise it was 7734. I also had an U/S that showed one happy little embie, heart still beating. There was also some other heterogeneous material and an irregular yoke sac seen. I passed what is assumed to be the yoke sac about 15 minutes after the U/S. Strangely enough, I have since stopped bleeding and cramping.

Now, if I could just get a hold of my RE. I may have to name this baby Lucky! "

" Lucky sure is that to have you!!

I'm so sorry to hear all the stress and upset this experience must be causing you.

But I am so very happy to hear you are progressing and Lucky is still paying attention to all the lessons of hard work paying off.

Prayers are still with you for continued good health. "
