7dp6dt Beta Results!

"I have good news! Congratulations, you are pregnant."

Those words were spoken to me. To ME! I never thought I would hear them.

She did have to add, however, that my beta is a bit on the low side. It is 24.5. My progesterone and estradiol are both looking good. She really didn't seem overly concerned that it was a bit low, but I think she was obligated to mention it.

My clinic had initially wanted to see my number over 25. Hopefully 24.5 is close enough to be viable!

Even though I am 7dp6dt, which should translate to 13dpo, I feel as if I'm more 12dpo. The reasoning for this is because my embryo was on pace with a 5-day embryo (it wasn't hatching). So maybe he/she is just a little lazy?

Also, my tests have just started getting noticeably darker.

I got back in on Monday for a repeat beta. I will continue to pee on sticks this weekend, and I hope they get darker and darker. That will really help to ease my mind during this 3-day wait.

The nurse told me to take it easy this weekend. No heavy lifting, no sex, no baths/jacuzzis.

    Sounds on track to me. I had one day at 12 dpo and it was 18.7. I was nervous that it wasn't higher, but lo and behold, here I am eight months along. Congrats to you and your husband.

    Sticks look great! I think you're right about 12dpo. My RE always says that FET's take a little longer to produce HCG too.
