Hi all, Yes I am sure I am losing my mind. I have taken 4 hpt's over the last three days and they keep getting darker and darker,the last one was immediate and very dark. I woke up this morning spotting and I am now bleeding full on. I took another HPT (stupid sticks ) and it was a very dark positive. So here I am at 11:00 AT NIGHT BY MYSELF (DH is at a hockey game) feeling like I may lose it at any second. Can anyone tell me how this is possible. My Beta is on Wedensday.I do believe I will be clinically insane by then. Well I guess really I just wanted to vent a little but if any one has wise words of hope for me I would be soooo happy to hear them.
Thanks ,Leanne.

Sorry, I can do much other than state the obvious - I would ring the clinic first thing in the morning and ask to do the beta earlier on the basis of your HPT and bleeding. In the meantime, have a nosy around this site - there are lots and lots of stories of women who had spotting or bleeding but went on to have perfectly healthy and normal pregnancies.

All the best and congrats on your +ve HPT.
Me 40 (sigh), DH 50
TTC since Jan '08
Male factor (ASA), high FSH (15-30 on CD2), poor responder; right ovary a little slow (quadruple whammy!)
IVF#1, March/April '09, BFN
5 follicles, 3 eggs retrieved, 2 fert (ICSI), 2 good embies
IVF#2, Aug '09 (after two cancellations for high FSH)
8 follicles, 4 eggs, 3 fert, 3 good embies
BFN, 1 frostie in the bank
IVF#3, Dec '09 (after cancellations for high E2 and high FSH) cancelled on day 7: only 2 tiny follies, low E2, FSH through the roof, thin lining and a large cyst - you name it, it went wrong.
IVF#4, Feb/March '10 - FSH down to 15 (wtf?!)
Day 7 u/s: right ovary - 1 follicle over 1cm (shock!), 2 under; left ovary - 2 over 1cm, 1 under
Day 11 u/s: right ovary - 2; left ovary - 4 over 1cm, + 2 under
ER - 3/3; 6 eggs & all 6 fertilised. A new personal best!
ET - 6/3 - Arthur & Martha transferred (both 8 cell or better); 3 frozen, hopefully last 1 will also make the grade for freezing
Beta - 19/3

And now we wait...

As Saff notes and others have pointed out on your other post, there are other reasons for bleeding - even full on bleeding - that don't mean that you're losing the pregnancy (subchorionic hemotomas, irritated cervix, response to increased blood flow into the uterus, etc). It's also possible that you had more than one embryo attempt to implant but one was unsuccessful and you're bleeding from that. As I said on your other post, it's scary because it could be something bad, but it doesn't necessarily have to be. Like Saff advised, for your own peace of mind, if nothing else, it's worth asking your clinic to do an earlier beta and maybe even scheduling an u/s (although it may be too early to see much).

The fact that your hpts are still coming up positive is promising and worth focusing on at least until you have more info.

Fingers crossed you're able to get some reassurance!

Keeping my fingers crossed for you

XO
Our Journey to Parenthood
TTC Since September 2007 - Diagnosis "Unexplained Infertility"
Me 28 - DH 30


Sept 2007-2008 - Trying au natural - When it was fun ;)
Sept 2008 Refered to 1st clinic, what a waste of time
Dec 2008 - Told by old clinic both my tubes were blocked, going for a lap...
Feb 2009 - Lap. done, both tubes clear and open, were never blocked
March 2009 - Clinic gave us the wrong patients results - switched clinics
April 2009 - Started at ISIS
May 2009 - 1st B2B IUI - DH counts amazing, 72 and 42 million 90% mobility - BFN!!! devastated beyond words
June 2009 - IUI #2 - 3 Good follicles - June 16th (113 million sperm, 99% motility WOOHOO) and 17th!! Cycling with Kerri, so excited!! Beta Day July 1st - 14DPIUI...AF arrived...wondering how much more we can take :(
July 2009 - IUI #3 - Changed to timed BD...CD10 (July 10th) Only one good follicle, 2.2 I think, chose timed love making instead of IUI#3, due to only one follicle - we are going to try "au natural " this cycle - BFN again...
August 2009 - Taking time off and enjoying each other, 1st adoption meeting Sept 16th, and I also have a free round of Gonal-F waiting for us at the clinic when we decide to go back - Became a Moderator here at IVF.CA!! Thrilled to be about to give back to a wonderful site and great group
September 2009 - Explored the adoption process with Halton CAS Sept. 16 then decided to take time off from TTC and save for more fertility treatments in the future...
October 2009 - Decided to submit our application for adoption (Oct 27th) and started acupuncture, will not give up we will have a family one day
November 2009 - Finally met Karolyn, she stayed with DH and I for 3 days, she is like a sister to me, and had a few wonderful meet up's with other amazing women from the site...words can not describe what an amazing weekend that was
December 2009 - Re-doing a bunch of tests - hopefully a few IUI's in the new year with a different protocol - Maybe PRIDE training in March
January 2010 - Results from SONO and HSG, all looks great, Right tube questionable, not a huge concern as per Dr. Saving for IVF as that is our next option...might be a few years, hopefully not. Hopefully our miracle will come before -Wondering why is this so hard??
Jan 2010 Cont'd - Accepted to PRIDE training starting in March, SAFE home study to follow...We can finally dream again...

Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will...

Wishing and hoping our time will come...

I would definately call the clinic ASAP for an appointment. Hopefully nothing is wrong, but in the off chance that something bad is happening, there will still be the pregnancy hormone in your blood, that is why you may still be getting a positive HPT. I went through a miscarriage in December and my HCG kept rising little by little until I fully miscarried. I know it's scary, but keep your chin up and you will be in my thoughts. An early HCG is good for the sanity.

I'm so sorry... :(
Me: 33 DH:33 DH has a 9 year old daughter who lives with us.

TTC first baby since 2001 (with ex-dh)and he never wanted to do anything more than Clomid); regardless I had two lap surgeries, 4 hsg's and a buttload of the standard IF testing over the years. Diagnosis was damaged tubes resulting from PID when I was 17.

TTC with current dh since September 2008. We started seeing my same infertility specialist and did 3 cycles of Clomid (all BFN), started talking to our doctor about IVF and unexpectedly got pregnant in May/09 naturally! Found out at 7 weeks pregnant that it was ectopic. :(
Right tube healed shut, left tube scarred. "Trying" naturally ever since.
Very first IVF coming in September 2010. Hoping, wishing, praying for my little miracle.

Thank you for all your thoughts. I went for my Beta yesterday at 7:00am it is now 3:30 the next day and I still have heard nothing. I think this could be a form of torture. I just want to get a final answer so I can grieve and move on to whatever next step I have to take. If I dont hear from them today I am going to have to drive the 2 hours to T.O tomorrow morning and wait till I get an answer,I cant do this for another 24 hrs. Thank you everyone for letting me vent. I know each and everyone of you has unfortunately been through similar stress. I am praying for all of you.
Thanks Leanne.

No experience with that - but wanted to let you know I am thinking of you

XO
Our Journey to Parenthood
TTC Since September 2007 - Diagnosis "Unexplained Infertility"
Me 28 - DH 30


Sept 2007-2008 - Trying au natural - When it was fun ;)
Sept 2008 Refered to 1st clinic, what a waste of time
Dec 2008 - Told by old clinic both my tubes were blocked, going for a lap...
Feb 2009 - Lap. done, both tubes clear and open, were never blocked
March 2009 - Clinic gave us the wrong patients results - switched clinics
April 2009 - Started at ISIS
May 2009 - 1st B2B IUI - DH counts amazing, 72 and 42 million 90% mobility - BFN!!! devastated beyond words
June 2009 - IUI #2 - 3 Good follicles - June 16th (113 million sperm, 99% motility WOOHOO) and 17th!! Cycling with Kerri, so excited!! Beta Day July 1st - 14DPIUI...AF arrived...wondering how much more we can take :(
July 2009 - IUI #3 - Changed to timed BD...CD10 (July 10th) Only one good follicle, 2.2 I think, chose timed love making instead of IUI#3, due to only one follicle - we are going to try "au natural " this cycle - BFN again...
August 2009 - Taking time off and enjoying each other, 1st adoption meeting Sept 16th, and I also have a free round of Gonal-F waiting for us at the clinic when we decide to go back - Became a Moderator here at IVF.CA!! Thrilled to be about to give back to a wonderful site and great group
September 2009 - Explored the adoption process with Halton CAS Sept. 16 then decided to take time off from TTC and save for more fertility treatments in the future...
October 2009 - Decided to submit our application for adoption (Oct 27th) and started acupuncture, will not give up we will have a family one day
November 2009 - Finally met Karolyn, she stayed with DH and I for 3 days, she is like a sister to me, and had a few wonderful meet up's with other amazing women from the site...words can not describe what an amazing weekend that was
December 2009 - Re-doing a bunch of tests - hopefully a few IUI's in the new year with a different protocol - Maybe PRIDE training in March
January 2010 - Results from SONO and HSG, all looks great, Right tube questionable, not a huge concern as per Dr. Saving for IVF as that is our next option...might be a few years, hopefully not. Hopefully our miracle will come before -Wondering why is this so hard??
Jan 2010 Cont'd - Accepted to PRIDE training starting in March, SAFE home study to follow...We can finally dream again...

Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will...

Wishing and hoping our time will come...

Although I think clinics like to see a beta of at least 50 by day 10, there've been a couple of women who've had positive outcomes with low betas on the boards recently.

Fingers crossed you're another one.

I've been through that twice and while waiting to see what would happen, I think I read every website that there is out there that mentions low betas. It seems that there's about a 75% chance of an unhappy ending and a 25% chance of a successful pregnancy.

Keeping my fingers crossed for you.
Me: 36, DH: 39
TTC: since Jan 08

DH: Low morphology, low count. Me: Stage 2-3 endometriosis, non-functional fallopian tubes, small fibroids.

Jun 08-Mar 09: Worst months of my life. Many, many doctor appointments, multiple blood tests, multiple sperm tests, HSG, ultrasound, very traumatic office hysteroscopy, operative laparoscopy.

Nov 19 start Cipro
Nov 23 start Estrace
Nov 28 start 450 Gonal F, Luveris, Dexamethasone
Dec 13 ER - retrieved 10 eggs
Dec 16 ET - two 8-cells transfered, one 7-cell frosty
Dec 28 beta (day 15) = 34
Dec 30 beta (day 17) = 50
Jan 02 beta (day 20) = 156
Jan 04 beta (day 22) = 330
Jan 06 beta (day 24) = 670

I am hoping for good things for you.
Me: 33 DH:33 DH has a 9 year old daughter who lives with us.

TTC first baby since 2001 (with ex-dh)and he never wanted to do anything more than Clomid); regardless I had two lap surgeries, 4 hsg's and a buttload of the standard IF testing over the years. Diagnosis was damaged tubes resulting from PID when I was 17.

TTC with current dh since September 2008. We started seeing my same infertility specialist and did 3 cycles of Clomid (all BFN), started talking to our doctor about IVF and unexpectedly got pregnant in May/09 naturally! Found out at 7 weeks pregnant that it was ectopic. :(
Right tube healed shut, left tube scarred. "Trying" naturally ever since.
Very first IVF coming in September 2010. Hoping, wishing, praying for my little miracle.

Hi Ladies.. just to let you know that I bled throughout my pregnancy and I know how scary it can be... and I had no complications from the bleeding. It is best to consult your dr to rule out any complications. I spotted right up til the day I had her.. the dr's said I must have a irritated cervix and that a lot of women spot during their pregnancies. My grandmother had her period every month when she was pregnant. It is weird how things work, and I wish you the best of luck..

I am so sorry to hear that. Keep your chin up and next round may be the one!! I know we have no control over anything but having a positive attitude makes things go alot easier.. I am here for you if you want to talk. I know what it is like having disappointments. I did 12 months of clomid and had to face BFN for a yr and half. I pray you get your happy ending soon!!! Take care of yourself!
