So this is kinda complicated

I'm pregnant-ish.

Beta at 12dp3dt was 39.

I had tested Saturday and got a negative result, despite me trying to convince my husband that there was a second line there.

And I am spotting a little bit of brown since yesterday. (Yeah, yuck.  Sorry.)

So I expected to get a negative result today and then plot timing for another cycle.

Instead, I guess I go back Wednesday to find out what's up.

But even if this goes south, as I sort of expect it will, I've already beaten the odds a bit.  Because in my age cohort there is only a 20% chance of pregnancy per cycle, and I managed to achieve that.

So maybe in this cycle or in some future one I can beat the odds again?

  1. It sounds like you are managing to stay positive. Here's to hoping for good news on Wednesday.

  2. I'm hoping that the numbers go really high and the embryo sticks.

  3. Umm....YAY! FUCK! YAY! I'm sorry about this ambiguous result--it's got to be really hard. But I'm hoping and praying the little embryo is just a slow starter and that you'll get thrilling news. Much love.

  4. Complicated indeed. I'm staying on the positive side and hoping for a late implanter, and those numbers will rise nicely from here. Ya just never know this early. Everything crossed over here for you.

  5. Ergh. I'm sorry. I will say that one can be on the good side of less than stellar betas....got a 5 month old to prove it. Hoping for good news for you, too!

  8. I am hoping that this is some bucking of the odds all around, but also realize that it might fizzle. I'm thrilled that you did get something going and I do find it encouraging for future odds. Hoping for one of those slow start success stories as well.

  9. I was going to write something aLong the lines of "Ach, limbo." But it isn't quite limbo because while they might hope for a higher number, the number IS very squarely pregnant. But, Ach, waiting. I hope you DO beat the odds. THIS time, preferably.

  10. Hoping you just have a slow grower (does happen) and no more bleeding.

  13. Argh indeed. You are not by any means completely out of the game yet. I'm hoping things will pick up for tomorrow's test.
