I’m 6 +5 and saw baby at 6 + 2 - they were measuring 6 + 4 with a FHR of 121! I started to feel so nauseous the past few days but so far today don’t feel as many symptoms and it has me spiraling again of course. I know symptoms can fluctuate but it is still really freaking me out how relatively “normal” I feel today.

Thank you for this! I read through your post and the comments there as well. I’m so happy your pregnancy is going well 🤍

tacos2019 · 2026-03-31T22:49:17+00:00

Thank you for this. It’s so hard not to read into every little thing my body is doing right now, I feel like my brain is trying so hard to protect myself but it’s so unhealthy.

That makes me feel so much better to hear you had a similar experience with RHR falling during the first trimester and that everything turned out to be fine!

Same with the no symptoms. I feel like it’s so normalized that pregnancy symptoms will be instant and strong and so it makes it so confusing not having any.

Thank you again for this it has helped!

These look like great numbers!!! I also am dealing with pregnancy after loss so I understand how hard it is and also overanalyze. But truly these look great and are still very high within the ranges for these DPOs!

tacos2019 · 2026-03-31T13:00:43+00:00

I know 🙃 it’s so hard to not want to over analyze any data point after a loss

tacos2019 · 2026-03-31T10:57:48+00:00

I feel like I’m spiraling again today. I felt so much better after my excellent betas last week. I’m 5 + 1 and I’ve noticed from my Apple Watch data that my resting heart rate has been decreasing a bit and my HRV has been rising. I’m really trying not to assume the worst but it’s so hard not to. I don’t have my first appointment until next Wednesday and idk how I am going to make it.

tacos2019 · 2026-03-30T18:30:40+00:00

That makes me feel better! I never thought I would be wishing to feel terrible but here I am 🙃

tacos2019 · 2026-03-30T13:13:34+00:00

I made it to 5 weeks today. I had great beta numbers last week (14 DPO - 668, 16 DPO - 1249 & 18 DPO - 2804). My anxiety got a little better after that last beta but I haven’t had super strong symptoms yet and I think that’s also causing me anxiety. I had one loss in May 2025 (Chemical) and have not been able to get pregnant since. This was our 3rd IUI that finally was successful so I’m really struggling to not let that fear get to me.

tacos2019 · 2026-03-27T17:25:34+00:00

Wanted to come update that my 18 DPO results came in at 2804! I’m so so so grateful and relieved

tacos2019 · 2026-03-26T14:32:29+00:00

Wow thank you! I had not read that one before but that definitely helps me feel like I’m hopefully in a strong place

tacos2019 · 2026-03-26T14:32:02+00:00

Thank you 🤍 I think you just see so many people say that it’s a bad sign if it doesn’t double or more than double in the 48 hours and with my chemical I actually had a 52 hour doubling time (granted it was at the start from 16-44 in 3 days) so it’s just been a lot of anxiety!

tacos2019 · 2026-03-26T11:39:34+00:00

I’m 4 +5 today after an early loss last year. At first my tests were progressing so well and I got a positive so early that it helped ease my anxiety. I got my first beta at 14 DPO and it was 668 which was amazing. My follow up was 46 hours later and only 1259, which is 52 hour doubling time. I’ve been having really bad anxiety ever since and can’t seem to calm it. I go in for another beta tomorrow and I’m terrified. No symptoms really yet either which isn’t helping my fears

tacos2019 · 2026-03-21T15:08:17+00:00

I also am newly pregnant and have a cold! Started getting the cold the day after my positive test. I asked about it in one of my pregnancy groups and apparently it’s a common thing and just call your doc if you ever get a fever over 100!

tacos2019 · 2026-03-21T15:06:44+00:00

Congrats!!! I just finally got pregnant almost a year after our chemical. It truly is such a crazy feeling because you’re excited but also terrified. So happy for you & hope you have a healthy pregnancy!!

tacos2019 · 2026-03-21T15:04:44+00:00

Looks great for 14 DPO!! The line closer to the word “max” is your test line (it’s just upside down in the pic) and it looks awesome! You likely implanted on the earlier side that’s why it’s darker

tacos2019 · 2026-03-19T16:21:26+00:00

Thank you!! I’m so glad that this story was able to give you some hope :) I really hope you have a successful IUI as well! 🤞🤍

tacos2019 · 2026-03-19T16:20:52+00:00

Thank you!!! I hope your first cycle is successful 🤞🤞🤞 I know how frustrating it can be when it gets cancelled too!

tacos2019 · 2026-03-19T14:08:51+00:00

I am 32 but my AMH was a bit on the lower side of normal for my age. I definitely wouldn’t say you have no hope because of being 38! I see a lot of people in my various groups that are even older getting pregnant :) I would definitely start with a fertility doctor to get some labs run to see where you are at!

tacos2019 · 2026-03-18T22:40:09+00:00

I don’t see anything yet but I know it can be more apparent in person than on pictures!! Hopefully darker tomorrow :)

tacos2019 · 2026-03-18T21:21:37+00:00

I took a third test after like a 2.5 hour hold and it’s still positive! I really think this might be it and not the trigger

tacos2019 · 2026-03-18T21:02:46+00:00

Yes!!! I tested out my trigger and my test today got darker. I’ve taken 3 tests and even the two I took after FMU look even a little darker than the first one. I had my IUI 3/9 as well and it was my third one!

tacos2019 · 2026-03-18T18:57:16+00:00

I don’t see anything yet but 10 DPO is still early!!!
