Second Beta

My second beta just came in and it's 778! That's a doubling time of 41.82 hours. I'm so proud to finally be on the normal scale of things! I have never had appropriately rising betas

No more betas for me. My clinic just makes sure they are doubling appropriately and if so, you are done with the needle poking. My first ultrasound is December 20th. For now, I'm going to try to enjoy this pregnancy and try to remain hopeful that things will proceed normally. I am greatly appreciating all your good vibes and thoughts. I think it's helping!

    You are rockin' these betas.... Big sigh of relief and happiness for you! Now, the dreaded wait till your first u/s, which I found was just as hard as the first 2ww. Congrats again!!!

    Congratulations!!! Soo super excited for you!! Hopefully the next 2 weeks fly by for you (but we both know they won't and you'll be in suspense the whole time!!) So try to enjoy this while you can. I'm attempting the same thing :)

    So many congratulations!! What a scary scenario you were facing - such a high retrieval number and the lone embryo. My RE always told me "it just takes one" and you are living proof.

    I am just thrilled for you. How exciting! Sit tight as you can in the coming wks until 20-Dec.
