A new chance...

So...my last post was about my BFN and our new protocol. I went ahead and bought $500 worth of meds for our next cycle and was ready to go...just waiting on AF...and waiting...and waiting.

Finally on Monday I decided to take a pregnancy test (keep in mind this was 6 days after my initial BFN) it was positive. I called my RE and had the beta drawn: 341.

I had a repeat beta on Wednesday: 652.

And just because of our previous losses, I asked for a third beta today: 1154.

So, they are not exactly doubling every 48 hours, however they are increasing nicely and my doctors are very happy with where my numbers are, so as of right now, we are in pregnancy number 4. We have another chance and maybe some hope. I have added Love.nox and Pred.nisone to my daily medicine regimen in hopes that will help this little one "stick" around.

We are not overly excited, we are not planning the nursery, I haven't even calculated the due date...we are just taking it one day at a time and are thankful for this new chance.

That's exactly what happened to me when I got prego with Braden. I had a BFN and waited a week for AF to show, then took another test and had a BFP. I hope this one sticks! I'll be praying for you!
