Lookin' Good- Now an RE break :(

3rd and final beta number today: 1,015. That, ladies and gentlemen, is again, more than double in 48 hours- an increase of 135% since beta #2. Woohoo! I was hoping for over 1,000 so it could still feel like I was still in the running for twins. I'm still feeling one- but we will see... hopefully at the u/s on August 7th! I will be 6 weeks and 5 days. I decided I should put a little poll and see what comes out on top, so please vote on the right side!

I didn't realize that once my dream came true I'd still be living my life in two week increments. This will be yet another long TWW.

YEAYYYY!! I say it's TUPO. Twins until proven otherwise. =)

Hope the next two weeks fly by!!!

(even though I know they won't- sorry)

Definitely twins. Those numbers are staying consistently higher than "normal" for a singleton. Come on, first ultrasound!

sweetpeanme said...

Woo hoo!!! Look at those numbers girl!!!!!!!!!!!

Ugh...it never ends does it...always waiting...its like they say on that pregnancy test commercial...9 months is long enough to wait...and we've all been waiting longer than that!!!!!

BB said...

Yay!!! Great numbers... I am thinking its twins... that would be so lovely! :) Thanks for all the comments and backing that you are providing! :)

Wow!!! Terrific beta. So, so happy for you. My guess is twins. I am sure the time until the u/s will feel like forever, but you'll survive this wait just like all the other waiting you've endured. I really think the worst part about IVF is not the shots, but the waiting! Hang in there knowing you have GREAT NUMBERS!

Courtney said...

Yay!!!! We'll be in this TWW together. Our first beta test is Aug. 7th. I sure hope it's a memorable day for both of us!

Katie - the numbers are looking great! I am personally pulling for twins! We will all be waiting on the edges of our seats with you for the u/s!

Congrats on the great betas!

I hate to break it to you, but I'm 23w4d pregnant with twins, and my life is still lived in two week increments. Actually it's mostly been one month increments between doctor visits, but now that I've moved up to more frequent OB visits as the pg advances, I'm delighted that it's down to two weeks.

But really, it's day by day.

Best wishes at the ultrasound and beyond!

I hope so too Katie... this waiting seems never ending... I am just happy that the "2ww" wait will be shorter hopefully after the embies go in... since it seems they start counting from ER!

Scrambled Egg said...

Wow, congratulations! Here's to the next 2ww going very quickly!!!

Ellie said...

I vote twins! Also I can relate to the millions of 2ww following the BFP. I had 2ww for u/s's up until 12 weeks. The bummer is once you go to a real OB, it's 4ww's which are even more brutal! Anyway, this baby or babies are looking really healthy! Can't wait for the 7th!

Good luck wih everything! and Congratulations!

Congrats on high betas! Hopefully you do have perfectly healthy twins in there. But, sometimes the high beta does not mean twins. And sometimes a low beta does mean twins.
