I see progression! And it is totally normal to feel the way you do especially after what you went through. I know when/if I get pregnant again I will be a wack job because I had a mc before I had my youngest. And I totally bypass the schedulers in my OB's office as well and go straight to the nurse They seem to understand me better! I wish you good luck and sounds like you have a great weekend planned! My 2 year old LOVES Paw Patrol. My husband and I find ourselves singing the theme song all the time

I used to be a whack job! Surprisingly, that side has yet to come out this time (not in full force, anyways). I think eventually u hit a point where u realize that there's really not a damn thing u can do to change the inevitable, so u just go with the flow. Everyone's different tho. I've never had a blighted ovum so Idk what it feels like to see that on an ultrasound.
Ur progression isn't terrible. What urine and hold times are u using? Do u have other tests to use with these? A lot of women have been having issues with these. Angela had one show up completely negative when all other tests were dark af. They aren't really made for the purposes we use them for, so don't let them discourage u. Betas are def ur best option! How long do u have to wait for results? Lol I wait a week or more, which completely negates me doing them at all.

Hope Colton has a great weekend! I absolutely hate those shows...not as much as Peppa Pig or Mickey, but damn close!! Damn. Close!!!
Has he seen Super Why! yet? That's the new trend with mine.

Starmama, Thanks for siding with my whackiness, haha. Glad I'm not the only one who ditches the schedulers :). I haven't caught myself singing the theme song yet but I love listening to Colton sing it.

Sandy, I really need to establish that "going with the flow" attitude! the 7? DPO was at night and the 9? and 10? were first morning. I ordered some internet dip sticks because, as you know, I test more than I change my underwear. They should be here today. I have a Clear Blue digital but I'll wait and use that next week. The nurse told me that if I get my blood drawn in the morning then they will call in the afternoon with the results. If I get it drawn in the afternoon then I will hear next morning.
So far, we only have Colton watching Blaze and Paw Patrol. Sometimes when we get home at night Bubble Guppies is on and he kinda tunes in but not much. We gave up cable and have Sling (al la carte TV) so the options are limited. His tablet on the other hand.....he likes watching cars and truck crash into each other and this funny chicken that does stupid stuff. When I start seeing him watch kids playing with their toys I shut that sh!t down, haha.

Did you get your first round of beta numbers back??

Starmama, I just got results like 5 minutes ago actually. They let me know it was 141 "indicating that I am pregnant." I have to repeat it tomorrow. A little worried because according to the Countdownmypregnancy website, at 4 weeks it should be at least 500. 141 falls into the 1 to 2 week. Or maybe not because that chart says "from conception" not last period so I really don't have a clue, haha. We will see. Thanks for checking in on me. I really appreciate it.

141 is a great number. 4wks from conception would be 6wks pregnant. The 1-2wks ur seeing is 3-4wks pregnant...right in line with where u are. Don't overanalyze it all, u will make urself crazy-er Lol!
Congrats! Will be watching for ur update! =))

Ok, just went back and looked and my HCG was 162 at 4 weeks exactly during my pregnancy, and the clinic was very excited with that! I think your number is great, and really it's the doubling rate that will tell you the most anyways. Fingers crossed!

Thanks Girls for the input. Sandy, you're right, I read it wrong at first. Feeling good and am trying to relax!

Sounds like everything is on track :) Keep us updated!

This is a great number! I was just posting on another journal that my 14dpo/4 week hcg was 54. By 5 weeks 1 day we could see the gestational sac on ultrasound
