Let's try this again...yesterday's message was deleted :(
The nurse seemed really concerned that my numbers weren't at 1700. I think she thought there were 4 days in between draws rather than 3 though. I went from 440 to 1148. It should have been 1320, but the doubling time went from 60 to 54 to 52, so even though it's not doubling I do feel like it's going in the right direction. Still not completely confident that everything is great, but crossing my fingers. Tomorrow I will have a 5th beta and an u/s. Crossing my fingers it looks promising :/ On a side note, my main RE is "out of town" so they are putting me with the "new guy". The funny part is that he did a dye test for me when I saw a 2nd specialist and I REALLY liked him....even if he told me my tube was blocked and it really wasn't. I think I am going to see if I can just stick with him. Crossing my fingers for good news tomorrow, but preparing for less than positive news.

I know your nervous and im definitly not a doctor but those numbers and doubling times look really good to me. Praying for a great ultrasound tomorrow to ease your fears, let us know how it goes !! :)
Well I went for bloodwork this morning and I am awaiting the results. I also had my u/s and managed to piss off the entire office staff when I insisted on changing doctors to the new doctor I saw today. Drumroll...gestational sac seen! 6.6 mm. Yolk sac seen! The only bad thing is they saw a subchorionic bleed, but they say it should resolve (hopefully). I have to go back in a week for another scan. I won't relax completely until I see a normal heartrate for the baby (last year I got this far and then the hb was too slow and i miscarried) but for now I am feeling like I really have a shot! Thanks for the p&pt's. I think I am going to officially say hello.
