faint line on HPT second test....

Hi there,

today is my beta blood test -
I'm 42 with a beautiful 2 1/2 year (natural) after 3 miscarriages and 5 years of trying -  After having him we really wanted more children got pregnant naturally - but lost it - tubal and I lost the tube....
so test and laps and more test - 4 IUIs - we finally decided IVF -

So here I am today - (as everyone going thru this - an emotional basket case) looking for signs that I am in fact pregnant

So yesterday a day premature I did a HPT - it was positive.

and this morning I did one and it was positive too - only the line was lighter (and that scares me - I wish I had stopped with yesterdays)

Sept 4th was retrival - day 3 transfer - 3 embryos (two 8 cell one 6)

Hi.  I posted you a question under a different forum discussion but I'll repost here as well.  I was wondering if your RE used Lupron.  My RE used Ganirelix because of my age (40). I got a BFN.  I noted earlier that you had a very good chance of getting a BFP because you have been pregnant before and you had 3 great embryos.

A faint line is better than no line!

CONGRATULATIONS!  I knew you would get that BFP!  Take it easy now and also, you may want to consider accupuncture for the first trimester to ensure a healthy pregnancy.  Just a thought...

Congrats again and Thank God!
