I had IUI on 11/14 and I am going in on wednesday I will be 6 weeeks for an ultrasound. I was at the ER Saturday at 5w3d and they saw a sac and yolk sac but baby was too small to see. They said they should be able to see a heartbeat on wednesday.
Finally got the results of my 4th beta. 840!! But RE wants me to go in again on Wednesday for another round. Don't know why though. When do they do an ultrasound? The nurse who called me tonight said there really isn't anything to see on an u/s until 5-6 weeks post transfer. Is this true? I thought 6 weeks into pregnancy (which I will be on Wednesday according to my LMP) is when a sac and possible heartbeat can be seen.
RE said the bleeding/spotting that I'm having is completely normal. I'm just so tired of going to the bathroom like every hour to change my maxi pad. I can't wait until this ends.
I think your numbers are good. My first was 17 at 12dpiui, second was 56 at 14dpiui, third was 233 at 17dpiui, and fourth was 2062 at 23dpiui. The numbers have to start somewhere. Good luck!!!
Thanks! I had my 4th beta this morning. Still bleeing a little bit. Decided to stay home from work and in bed to rest. Waiting to hear about what the result is. I'm still thinking everything is ok. I'm just getting anxious about having an u/s done. I'm hoping my RE brings me in this week for one. As of Wednesday I will be 6 weeks along. I can't believe it!
I had betas of 10 for my first one and 38 for my second, so now you can feel a bit better :) I also had some spotting and they increased my Endometrin to three times per day as well. They actually didn't have me come in for a third and fourth, just had me wait two weeks for a sonogram and I am about 6 weeks along. Don't worry too much, your betas were increasing at great rates, I think everything is just fine!
Hey girls! Lots of luck to you all.
My first beta was 12dp 5dt at 13.8, 2nd beta was 16dp 5dt at 96.6 and my 3rd beta was 18dp 5dt at 354. I'm getting nervous that these numbers aren't high enough. RE wants me to come in Monday, 12/7 for a 4th beta. I'm just dying at this point to have an u/s, but most likely I'll have one this coming week. Been taking HPT like they are going out of style and I've had a nice strong BFP since 15dpt. I have been taking 2 different brands every morning and as of this morning, the line is still nice and dark. What's freaking me out is that I've been bleeding on and off all day since day14, started out as small amount of pink, then a little brown and then by Friday, which was day 18 had more like a red AF type of bleeding (sorry if TMI). Spoke with my RE about it and he said to increase my amount of Endometrin vaginal suppository from 2 times a day to 3 and to take it easy over the weekend. I have to say that I was off my feet mostly yesterday and the bleeding subsided. Was cramping a little earlier in the week with the bleeding, but haven't really been cramping that badly lately. I do feel a little bloated.
Lots of luck to you all. Sending lots of baby dust!
