Today I don't feel pregnant. I had a weird moment where I just felt all alone driving in the car, like this is the moment where I am losing the baby(ies). I think this is just negative thoughts after all I have been through and i figure it is normal.
It is also one week till our ultrasound. So I am incredibly nervous because that is getting closer and each step is wonderful and terrifying and I am so scared something will happen and this pregnancy won't be successful.

IVF#2: 4 weeks 5 days
Feb 10th, 2013
4 days no spotting. And yesterday I took another pg test... Just to see the line get darker!!!! Wow! That felt good.
Starting on the left the first one was testing the trigger out, the next BFN was 10dpo, then 12dpo the faint positive in the morning and a darker positive at lunch. Then the last one was yesterday at 16dpo!!
I love that dark line, I love this baby already.

Wow, I ran out the door this morning with my paper in hand to get my beta drawn. I was the first there and the first one drawn about 8:15.
Headed home to sit and wait for a phone call from the REs office. At 12:30 I called and prompted them to call labcorp to get my results. At 1:40 I get a phone call, it was the nurse...this is it my world is about to change I am either going to be on cloud nine or crushed again. My palms were sweating. The nurse apologized she meant to call the labcorp instead accidentally called me first. We hung up. Well, now I know the phone call is coming.
Waiting, it's 2pm.
Waiting, it's 2:30pm.
Finally, at quarter till 3 the phone rings..this is it. The nurse was so nice and had to inform me that the code was put wrong into the labcorp wrong and she had been transferred all around and was on hold for 20 minutes at one point. I am sitting here thinking get on with it...tell me my number. She finally did. It was 119. She said they were happy with it and to keep taking all my meds. I was disappointed. I wanted 200s or at least 126 or higher as 126 was doubling. The sweet nurse told me to not be so picky and that I needed to get scheduled for an ultrasound in 2 weeks.
Basically, they were pleased and didn't need a 3rd beta. I have the 6 week ultrasound and then one at 7 weeks were if all is fine and we see a heartbeat we get released (graduate) to my OB of choice! Oh please, that sounds amazing!!!

IVF#2: 4weeks
Feb 5th, 2013; Tuesday
Today I am considered 4 weeks pregnant. The spotting seems to have slowed down and is only showing up in the evenings when I think I have done too much during the day. I have done my best to take it as easy as possible and thankfully it seems to be working. There is no way with a 23 month old and a birthday party to plan for that I can completely stop and sit.
Beta #2 is tomorrow and I am so incredibly nervous.

The nurse called early this morning and I headed out the door to have my beta drawn when I got the go ahead. There was some mixup with the fax machine at the local labcorp, but another phone call to the REs office and it was relaxed and by 9:30 my blood was drawn and now it was back to waiting.
With my son his beta was 35 and more than doubled to 300+.
My next pregnancy my beta was 21 and dropped to 6, it was dreamed a chemical pregnancy and 2 days later I started bleeding.
Finally at 3:35 I got the call my beta was 63!!!! If this dang bleeding would stop I would start to get excited!!!!!

This is not how I want things to start out. I am spotting red but I have gotten my first positive pregnancy test in TEN months. This is not fair, now a little flicker of hope has ignited in my heart. Actually, take a step back. The test was negative during the time limit. When I went back it dried positive....what am I to think??
At lunch I took another test, at first it was negative....but wait the 2 minutes are not up!! BFP BIG FAT POSITIVE....well not really the line is very faint. It's a little darker than this mornings though. But I am still spotting red and brown. Brown is ok, red is BAD. Beta isn't till Tuesday...I think I am going to see if I can get it moved up a day and left a message on the nurses line, but I won't here back till tomorrow. Ugh. This isn't fun.

6 days past 5 day transfer. I took a pregnancy test yesterday and it was negative. I didn't take one today because I fear it would break my heart to be negative. We have one frozen embryo that I am hoping will become a baby if this cycle is a bust.
This evening I started my period. I wiped and I saw it. This is about the same time last IVF cycle that I started. I know that until I stop the progesterone I won't get a full flow. I cried in the shower. I am not strong enough. I can't bare much more...please God I can't take much more.
Chris wants me to take a pregnancy test in the morning just so we will know for sure, I will have to still go for the beta bloodwork.
