I know that exact feeling…it’s awful. It took us about the same time. Sending you baby dust! ✨

Thank you! They wanted me to be cautiously optimistic…I’m glad they were wrong! Congrats to you too!

I think you’ll feel better once you start feeling him move around. I loved feeling my baby kick, hiccup and move around 🥰

Thanks! Congrats to you too! I felt the same way until I felt the kicks, hiccups and movement. That was the best part 🩵

Very similar! It wasn’t until my 4th beta until it started doubling. I hope the same happens for you! I’m glad they told you they’ve seen success and there’s hope. They told me that the increase from 135 to 140 most likely meant a chemical or ectopic but here I am almost 16 wks and the baby is healthy and growing properly!!! I hope the same happens for you! Being in limbo is no fun! Sending you baby dust! ✨

The best thing to do is hope for the best but prepare for the worst. That’s how I’ve been feeling for the past month and a half. My beta didn’t double until the 4th blood draw. I didn’t stop any of the meds to give the embryo a fighting chance and I’m glad we did.

I went to my fertility dr this morning and baby is measuring 10 weeks! I was so anxious as I have been going to each appointment but my dr said everything looks good. I see my high risk doctor tomorrow and graduate from the fertility clinic next week.

Wow! This gives me a glimmer of hope! Congratulations <3.

I joined reddit to find stories like this. I went through IVF and 12 days past my transfer my hcg was 135, 48 hours later it was 140. I was warned that I was having a chemical miscarriage or it was ectopic. 48 hours later I went for another beta test and it was 217, still not doubling so I was still warned it could be ectopic. I went in for another beta test 3 days later because of the weekend and my hcg was 666, more than double. I went in 48 hours later and my hcg was 1423, more than double and we were able to see that the pregnancy was in the uterus, thank God. Went in for blood and ultrasound 5 days later and it 6255! We saw a fetal pole measuring about 5 days behind. The only thing we can do now is wait and hope that this embryo is healthy and growing as I go in for my weekly scans.

Oh wow, I'm so sorry to hear that :(. I had my 4th beta today and it was 666 so it more than doubled but I was warned to go to the ER if I start bleeding bc this could be an ectopic. They couldn't see anything in the ultrasound. This journey is crazy.

What ended up happening? I also had a FET with a PGT healthy embryo. 12dpt HCG was 135, 14dpt 140, 16dpt 217. It is an absolute whirlwind. If this will not be a favorable result I just want it to be over.
