Our Journey Part 9: Success, Setbacks, and Hope!
There have been successes, sadness, setbacks, but the biggest theme has been hope and prayers for our fellow sisters.
Welcome to Part 9. Here's hoping that we all find our BFP's before the end of this thread!

I'm officially pregnant! Had labs today. HCG is 7 & Progesterone was 4. The Dr wasn't too concerned about the HCG. "You have to start somewhere" were their words. They said they have had girls with an initial beta of 4 turn into healthy pregnancies. The progesterone has them very worried. I already take 200mg of Prometrium every night and they gave me a shot of 200mg today right after the labs were drawn. I got back for repeat labs Thurs. If HCG is at least 14, they will be happy. The progesterone just needs to be going up, but they didn't say how high. If the HCG isn't at least 14, then the pregnancy isn't going to make it.
Oh, and my normal nurse reviewed my chart & said I ovulated on both sides.
Somthing interesting about this pregnancy....Feb 16, 2012 was when I was told my 3rd pregnancy had ended. Feb 16, 2013 was my first positive HPT for this pregnancy. Hmmm
Our prayers are working! Keep praying!

Hi ladies. Thanks for your kinds words and prayers. I'm so pissed off right now I think I really could just spit...or punch someone!
I had my beta & progesterone drawn this morning. The original order wasn't STAT.Good think I caught that & the nurse faxed over the right order. That was at 9am. Never heard from her.
I called the office because we have had a snow/ice storm come through & I wasn't sure if I would still be able to get my results today because of the weather.
The entire office is closed. My RE nurse is out of the office unilt FEB 28th!! WTF am I supposed to do? If I'm not miscarrying, do I need to go back for another progesterone injection? If I am miscarrying, do I stop the Lovenox & Progesterone? Do I need RhoGam again? Wtf? Total heartless and careless nurse to leave me hanging like this.
I don't think my results are going to be good, though. I took a Wondfo last night that was initially negative but finally turned positive overnight. My FRER with FMU was just about negative, so I think it's over :( But I want my lab results and to know what to do!
UGH! I HATE this.
Thank you. Have a good day.

It's official...Hcg dropped to 2. :( I'm stopping Lovenox & Progesterone and should have AF this weekend. Ugh. The nurse mentioned I might need Intralipids. But I'm confused because they tested me for all immune issues. I guess I'll have to wait to talk to the Dr.
Trying to be positive about our situation; we can get pregnant by BD, my blocked tube doesn't seem to be an issue, there is still some hope for us! That's more than most, so I guess I have to be thankful for that.
Thanks again ladies!
