I went in for my repeat beta today and it was 1318 today (11dp5dt). A doubling time of 37 hours or an increase of 145%. They like to see an increase of at least 66%. Looks like we have passed step 1 too. Horray! Thanks for all your comments and blessings! DH and I are [...]

536!!! I am in awe! I am in disbelief. Here I am praying that I get a number above 100 and what an awesome surprise. I just got the call. Today is 9dp5dt or 14dpo. The CCRM nurse said that they like to see the number above 50. So they are very happy too. She [...]

Many of you asked if and when I would POAS. Yesterday morning I woke up and had the slightest thought of doing the deed. But then, DH is not here, and the thought of possibly seeing a stark white window without him being here to support me is crazy! So no POAS yesterday. And no [...]
