Pregnant and shocked
I am still in shock that I'm pregnant. I say that and it seems like I'm talking about someone else. I can't believe FET #3 worked. I am excited and nervous of course....really trying to enjoy this but its so hard knowing its very early and anything can happen. Just don't know if I could handle it emotionally if things don't work out. I am trying to hold onto the good news of my 101 beta and that RE said its a strong pregnancy. I have beta #2 tomorrow and will feel more reassured then. I guess AA and IVF have this one day at a time thing in common!!
Hope you are all having a good labor day weekend. Thank you for all of the wonderful wishes and great journal responses! Baby dust and love to all xoxo

Beta is 153 today. It didn\'t double. I\'m worried.
ok. I don\'t know from personal experience, but I have heard that it doesn\'t necessarily have to double every 2 days. It just has to have a steady incline. This baby was slow to get to you, like I said, they\'re just make a very dramatic entrance. I for sure feel like you are going to be ok!! Fingers crossed for you!
It doesn\'t always double!!! Nellysgirl is right...as long as it is steadily rising, you\'re fine. My beta didn\'t quite double after 2 days, either and I have two healthy twins that are half-baked at this point. No worries...just (try to) relax and keep taking it one day at a time.
Hang in there Momma! I am sure this is super stressful but it sounds like your numbers are still rising. Keep us posted ((HUGS))
Thanks for the reassurance! I\'m going back on Thursday so say some prayers the number continues to rise to where it should be!!!
When was your first beta? Beta\'s double from 36-72 hours so you may fine.
Mine didn\'t double either and I have healthy DD from that cycle. Hang in there!
I know how stressful this is. I have been on the hcg test ride before. Sometimes technology is helpful and sometimes.....it just creates more stress.
I agree with what everyone is saying. That rising is good. And that it doesn\'t always perfectly double. I\'m glad that you decided you want to be tested Thursday for peace of mind rather than waiting till Monday. I know how hard it is to enjoy the moment when we don\'t know what the next one holds. But like you and others have echoed....the present moment is what we most definitely HAVE and can call our own. Looking forward to good news tomorrow and some relief in worry for you! Hugs.
Great number! Stay strong! Sounds like everything is going well.
