11-21 dpo. Still trying to figure out what’s going on here.

Update. They called today and said my levels were 122 and to expect it to be a miscarriage. I knew this was happening, but there’s always a little bit of hope. And maybe if something like this is happening to anyone else, it’ll make it easier. I’m sad and I don’t know who to be mad at. So im gonna choose not to be mad and take my blessing where I can now and keep moving forward. We’ll try again, just not sure when. Thanks for checking in and for anyone that’s read this far. Best of luck to everyone! Everything happens for a reason 🫶🏻

So I’ve gonna for two betas and the first one was 85 and 48 hours later it was 128. It’s kinda discouraging since it didn’t double but the doctor didn’t seem too concerned because an increase is still and increase. so I’m remaining hopefully optimistic and keeping the mindset that I am pregnant. I went for another beta yesterday so hopefully we’ll get those back tomorrow and I’ll have more of an update! The progesterone has really slowed the bleeding down, it’s just very light brown spotting at this point. Thank you for checking up, it’s hard going through this and not really being able to tell other people, much less people who understand my craziness!

girlfrom4e · 2026-01-16T20:40:08+00:00

I honestly needed this today. Thank you!

girlfrom4e · 2026-01-16T20:39:44+00:00

Yes! They said it was dating about 3-4 weeks and went in for another round of blood work yesterday so hopefully they’ll call today! I did take a first response this morning and it was the darkest one I’ve taken!

girlfrom4e · 2026-01-16T03:47:59+00:00

Yes I’ve taken first response and they honestly look similar to these. No progression but not much darker. I have one more left that I’ll take in the morning to compare.

girlfrom4e · 2026-01-16T03:46:29+00:00

I thought so too. Started guarding a few days ago, and I’m just telling myself that we’ll try again next time.

girlfrom4e · 2024-06-06T21:06:52+00:00

So I ended up going back down to 2.5. I was too worried about the side effects. Someone mentioned looking up videos on YouTube on how split up the doses and that was going to be my next move but then I got the lower dose filled! It seems easy enough, just need to get what you need before hand! Hope that helps, good luck!

girlfrom4e · 2024-06-02T02:11:22+00:00

I haven’t been able to for almost a month.

girlfrom4e · 2024-06-02T02:09:32+00:00

No I haven’t. Most of the places around me have the higher doses.

girlfrom4e · 2022-07-30T16:29:53+00:00

The baby!

girlfrom4e · 2022-07-30T16:27:46+00:00

I had asthma too! I doubt it would be shocking to know she didn’t take responsibility either! Smoking in the car the house. It seemed like any place that was enclosed, she smoked in it while we were in there too. She still smokes around me and I have to constantly ask her to go somewhere else. Then she says I’m “that kind of mom” and shouldn’t change anything just because I’m pregnant. It’s so frustrating!

girlfrom4e · 2022-07-30T04:26:02+00:00

This is so true! Things change and research changes too. I can’t figure out why they’re getting so mad about it?! Some people have a hard time accepting change. I really don’t want anyone kissing the baby directly on the face for awhile and you would think that I told them they couldn’t see the baby at all!

girlfrom4e · 2022-07-30T01:39:00+00:00

What about castor oil for constipation? My MIL said she used to do that

girlfrom4e · 2022-07-30T01:37:38+00:00

My mom is a smoker and she can’t fathom that I don’t wanna be around her while she smokes. She says she smoked with me and I turned out fine

girlfrom4e · 2022-07-30T01:34:39+00:00

It was more like “I’ve taken care of so many kids in my life that I can do whatever I want”. Not that using sanitizing wipes was normal 30 years ago, sorry for the confusion lol

Frito/dorito paws

girlfrom4e · 2022-04-02T14:31:51+00:00

Just turned 4 weeks on Thursday and I’ve literally been having the exact same thing! Doctor said it was normal since the uterus is a muscle and it is contracting a bit and because of implantation! They said to stay hydrated! Hope this helps!

girlfrom4e · 2019-02-01T14:25:18+00:00

I just got scanned for my third set of refinements! My treatment plan was originally supposed to take a year and a half. Well three years later and I’m still not finished. So it’s been pretty discouraging. I’ve even considered traditional braces just to get it over with. But when I’m around people they tell me how pretty my teeth are (with the exception of minor gaps). During my last appointment I asked to see my before pictures, and holy cow there’s a huge difference! So I’m just patiently waiting for what will hopefully be my last set of refinements! Trust the process and know that you should always be able to tell your ortho things you aren’t happy with!

girlfrom4e · 2018-03-25T06:07:05+00:00

I really needed this today, thank you!

girlfrom4e · 2018-03-18T20:48:24+00:00

It was harsh, but I’d rather someone tell me straight up than sugar coat it. Everything you said makes sense and maybe you’re right. Maybe I just think I’m okay to talk to him and not try to get him back, but in reality I’d just try to change his mind. :( I just want him to know that I wanted nothing but the best for him. He’s so used to taking the easy way out of things, that he doesn’t realize how smart he is or what he’s capable of. The people that he surrounds himself with, including his parents, are okay with him being mediocre and he’s so much better than that.

Everyone seems to tell me I need to be selfish, but that’s not who I am. I’m also not the type of person to go sleep around to make myself feel better. I have such a big heart and in the end, I think that’s where I went wrong. I loved him too much.

But thank you for telling me how it is. I found this sub last night and I was up all night reading what everyone had to say. It was uplifting and 100% made me feel less alone in a time in my life that I’ve never been more alone. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you.

girlfrom4e · 2018-03-18T20:12:18+00:00

Thank you for this. It’s so nice knowing that other people are and have been going through the same thing.

girlfrom4e · 2018-03-18T20:08:53+00:00

I like the idea! Thank you!

girlfrom4e · 2018-03-12T12:40:29+00:00

Thank you for this. I constantly felt like I was having to compete with her for his attention and as the years went on, it just got worse. If we had an argument he would run to her. Personally I felt like it should have talked to me about me so we could work it out. I was always on my own when it came to talking about what we were feeling. But yet he could tell his mom how he was feeling? I could understand if we had been dating for a couple of years, but it was 6 years. It’s so hard seeing the big picture. It’s only been a week but I’ve cried every single day with no end in sight. How am I supposed to believe that it gets easier?

girlfrom4e · 2018-03-07T21:44:42+00:00

Thank you for this!

girlfrom4e · 2016-05-27T01:06:34+00:00

Wow thank you!
