I do realize that bhcg is more about doubling rates, but I turned down the offer to redo a bhcg in a week because, well, if it's not meant to be more tests isn't gonna change that.
Gah I think my problem is I've just been spending FAR too long on infertility boards so now I know far too much about how it can all go wrong! I'm not sure I'm going to be able to enjoy anything until at least the first scan.
Yes I think sometimes we can know too much and it's not always a good thing!
I hope the time until your first scan comes around super fast and you can relax and enjoy even a little bit then

WooHoo, congratulations! It's totally normal to feel scared and anxious in your situation. I would too. Sending you lots of sticky vibes and I hope you can start to get excited in a few weeks time!
Me: 35 years old. Was an infant nanny and birth and postpartum doula. Now a full time SAHM.
DS1: Aug 2003 (my first home birthed water baby!)
DS2: May 2009 (my second home birthed water baby!)
Oct 2014
July 2016: Laproscopic surgery to remove a ping pong ball sized endometrioma on left ovary and 3 pea size fibroids on outside of uterus. Hysteroscopy to remove one larger "penetrating fibroid" inside uterus.
Oct 2016: Heartbroken after DH's vasectomy. Looks like my dreams of a daughter are gone.

Best of luck to you in the coming weeks and I hope the time flies for you for your first scan.
I know how you feel!! I have to email the midwife tomorrow as they have pretty limited availability, but I feel like I'm 'jinxing' myself doing it.
I'm simultaneously looking forward to and terrified of that scan. I've just been hearing waaaaaaaay too many sad ending stories in the past year, it's kind of destroyed my 'innocence' when it comes to pregnancy!

OMG Lace! Congratulations! I am so happy for you . And we are pretty much due at the same time. . I really hope you have a sticky (preferably pink) bean in there. I'm alternating between being very excited, to terrified, to chilled lol.
Every little human you have ever met started out just the same. Yes things go wrong sometimes but a lot of the time they go perfectly and a little miracle occurs. I will keep my fingers tightly crossed that this will be one of those xx

Congrats, Lace!! What a great surprise!
I know what you mean about not having "innocence" when TTC. I feel the same now and have to talk myself out of worrying about infertility.
I'm hoping and praying you have a sticky, healthy pink bean in there!
