Hey ladies, I don't want to go into all my details, but I belong here now  DH and I have been ttc our first since last April. I have PCOS and he has MFI and we have been working with an RE. I got my surprise BFP on Nov 19th and really thought AF was on her way. I had feelings right from the beginning that I shouldn't get too excited... but for awhile I let myself believe in it!
Anyway, my 1st beta was somewhat low, 46, second it went to 224, but the 3rd one 6 days later only went to 389  Today, 5 days after that it's 123. I've been spotting, and had some bleeding last night. So, right now, I'm just praying this all happens naturally and that's the best I can hope for. The nurse got me a follow up appt with the RE for Thurs which is bitter sweet... I don't have to wait, but it's my birthday  So, I guess we'll find out then if we continue with Clomid and IUI or move on to the next step.
My saving grace in all of this is knowing we can get pregnant! Anyway, that's it for my quick intro, I look forward to meeting everyone here!

*sigh* I'm so sorry, Tammy  I'm glad you have such an amazingly positive attitude. Thinking about the future helps -- it's what's helping me through all this, too. Sorry you landed here, but at least you knew where to go to find this group. I love my ladies here.

Hello....I am so very sorry for your loss. I as well just experienced a loss today and I am in total shock and really just stopped crying about an hour ago. We had a strong heartbeat last week and everything looked healthy and great at our 6 week 2 day apt. I went back this week and nothing....no heartbeat...no baby. Its just so very hard to understand and seems just so unfair. Trust me I know.....
If you need a friend to chat with I am here......and I am going through the same thing. I have not had any bleeding yet...they told me I will M/C in the next few weeks....great Christmas gift huh? Trying to find a piece of positivity from all of this to move forward with.
