This is so Hard! I found out 2 weeks ago that I was pregnant after my second round of IVF. I had to do IVF because I had two previous ectopic pregnancies and lost a part of each tube. So, my beta #s have been increasing, but VERY slowly. I will be 6w tomorrow and my beta this a.m. was still only 1113.I had an u/s today, they should have been able to see something (as I'm nearly 6w) but saw nothing. Not even a yolk sac. Now the Dr. is wondering if it is another ectopic and they just can't see it. Or, that I will miscarry. He said the potential of it being a viable pregnancy is very slim. He has scheduled another blood draw and u/s for next Wed. If nothing has changed by then, he said they will either do a D&C or laposcrapy to see if it's ectopic.
I don't understand why they are waiting and putting me through another week of HELL if they believe they already know what is inevitable!! Why drag it on and continue this worry and heartbreak??!!
Has anyone known of anyone that had asimilar situation and had a healthy pregnancy?
I need to hold on to hope, but the way it was explained to me, I don't think there is any!!

*hugs* I can't imagine the pain you're going through. Maybe they're waiting to be SURE that its not going to work, instead of leaving you with a 'what if' feeling. I wish there was something I could say to help. *hugs*

I don't know about your exact situation, but when I had a one of my miscarriages, I had to do a lot of waiting around (about 2 weeks filled with blood work and ultrasounds) because the dr. wanted to be absolutely certain that there was no possibility of him doing a D&C on a viable pregnancy. He kept saying maybe I wasn't as far along as I thought I was. I KNEW exactly how far along I was, but I was kind of glad he was being so careful. I know it's so hard to wait, and I know what's it's like to just want the whole horrible thing to be over. Hang in there, and I wish you the best.

This must be so hard for you, I will keep you in my thoughts.I think maybe a week because it will show a higher number and a better reassurance of what's happening. It's such a long time to wait when you just need to know...hang in there.

Im praying everything works out for you. ive misscarried twice since jan 07 and am preg agian, i know how scared you are!
deleted_user
did you have a regular ultra sound, or a vaginal ultra sound? Because when I was 6weeks the only way they could see that I was pregnant was with the trans vaginal one. So there is still hope. And I am praying for you

Thank you all for your kindness and concern.Hashyash, I also had a internal u/s, and they saw the gestational sac, I have since learned that it may just be too early to see the yolk sac, as my betas are so slow rising!! I hoping that they will rise enough this week that we can seee more! Thanks everyone!
deleted_user
I am really sorry to hear about what your going through.And i hope it all changes for the best for you

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
