Hi Ladies
I decided to post here before sharing my news with the DE board where I normally post. As some of you know me, you know I've been thru 5 donors, Dr Beer treatments, Dr Toth treatments...heck I took Humira WEEKLY for almost a year and got nowhere but one chem pg.

We did a cycle using a GC and DE (26 year old donor) in January...GC is 22 with 3 kids of her own..and it failed. I couldn't believe it.

So we transferred 3 okay quality embys to our GC (she is truly the sweetest woman ever) and we got a positive beta of 32 at 10dp3dt. Then at 15days post it was 161....a doubling time of 51 hours which they say is fine.
But I am sooo nervous. First off the beta itself is low....on all the charts it's toward the low range...way below average.

should I be worried? could this possibly work out?
any thoughts and encouragement greatly needed. her next beta is tomorrow.

I can say don't worry but lets be honest, no matter what the numbers are - we're always going to worry.

As long as the # go up, that's what matters.

I can't wait to hear what tomorrows #'s are.

First, congrats on the positive betas!!!!! I agree with Silkygal that the biggest thing is that the numbers are doubling and going up. My first beta at 9dp3dt was 33. I ended up being pg with triplets. FET's tend to be a litte slower taking off. Maybe they're trying to catch up?

Good luck today, and keep us posted!!!!!

Good point. FET's can take a bit more time.
