Blood Test Results

So, I was convinced that I would be getting bad news yesterday and as it turned out, I am pregnant. My beta levels were a little lower than what I'd feel comfortable with, so I'll remain cautiously optimistic, but at least we still have stake in the game. When I was pregnant with Myer, my first beta was in the 300s. Currently my beta is only 85, but I'll take that over 0 any day. I will go back on Friday to see if the number has doubled. I would really like to hear it has climbed to 200 though. That would make me feel a lot better about things. As for symptoms, I have not experienced anything other than maybe some waves of fatigue. This is very different from what I remember about Myer so I'm taking it one day at a time. However, there were a lot of different factors between the two cycles. First, Myer was a fresh day 5 blastocyst. We transfered two embyros with his cycle and I'm convinced that both took at first, but one quickly arrested. As for this cycle, I transfered two frozen day 3 embryos so the circumstances are all around different. From what I've read online (because I do that a lot these days), there really shouldn't be any difference in the way or time it takes the embryo to implant, but I've just got to think that one that is two days behind may be a little sluggish. At least that is what I'm hoping for. I guess I won't know til Friday's results though. Until then, I'm pregnant and will cherish the thought. Thank you to everyone for the positive vibes, warm wishes, and strong prayers. I really did need them this time!
