BETA #2!

Beta # 2 (August 29) is 698!!  ( maybe 4w2d pregnant?- Actual 4w3d) Doubling every 47 hours!  All within normal range!  OB appointment is next Tuesday!

1st BETA

First Beta is 91!  ( guessing 3w3d?- actual 3w4d). How did that not show up on the OBs pee stick???? Next blood draw is 6 long days from now!  UGH!  Courtney is on metformin for the PCOS and pre-diabetic issues plus an aspirin daily for the blood clotting disorder MTHFR.

HCG


Courtney took this test for piece of mind before going to OB appointment....still positive....but when she peed on the stick in his office it was negative!!!!  How can this be?  Courtney insisted on a blood draw for HCG numbers.  Now we wait!....back home, she peed on a home pregnancy test again for piece of mind and......still pregnant !



SURPRISE!

Three years later.....Courtney simply gave up trying to get pregnant after miscarriage number 5! .....But here we are with a HUGE SURPRISE!  Monday (8/22/2016) the day before school started for little Miss Nevaeh (first grade), Courtney wasn't feeling right and took a pregnancy test... She has PCOS so not sure of ovulation or exact period date, but she is guessing a few days before she should have started if a nomal cycle. Maybe 10 or 11 dpo  - early in week 3- Actual 3w3d)  The clear blue test shows 1-2 weeks past ovulation. ....just a guess!  Curious to see what HCG numbers are. Blood draw tomorrow at 2:00. :-)
