honinurse, My first number this time was at 10 DPO and it was 23. I didn't have another draw, because I tested so early, until AF was late which was 6 days later and it was 587.
Well, my doctor is so not following protocol that it freaks me out on a regular basis right now. My ultrasound isn't until July 1. She said that the reason she didn't want to do it this week is because she knows what I went through last time with not seeing anything until my numbers were well over 4000. She is trying to spare me that emotional drama all over again. So I am trying to just go with the flow and watch for any warning signs at all. She really is a great doctor. In fact she is one of the reason that we are having a second TR baby. TR baby #1 was my 4th c-section. All of the other doctors in the practice kept trying to talk me into having my tubes retied because of the risk of multiple c-sections. However, she told me that when she did the section she would tell me honestly what it looked like in there and we could make the decision then. She told me that besides the scar tissue where the incision is everything else looked fine and we would be okay having one more. So, I know she has my best interest at heart but it can be difficult when they are not familiar with the early monitoring that comes with post-TR. I guess I should mention that with TR baby #1 I was seeing both her and an RE and it was the RE that was doing all of the early testing and was pushing the metho shot because he wasn't seeing anything when my numbers were at 1500, 2500, or 3500. Anyhow, now I am rambling.
Oh,I should be 6 wks tomorrow and according to FF my due date would be Feb 20.

Honinurse if you look at the list alot of the #s are listed they either say #s or BW and those are the hcg # i hope that helps some don't have the dpo and some do you may ask specific people for their exact stats if that is more helpful. When you are ready to be added to the list just let me know. Shawna

I am just plain curious what kind of numbers for HcG draws other gals on here have had? And what DPO were they started. My first draw was 11 and 13 DPO. Just wondering.

Jamie imagine this it was u/s wow hehe really just poking fun cause now i know that i really don't care much for my u/s tech. she could have tried to let us hear the heartbeat when we were there last time. well she's the one that got all mad cause i didn't use the reveral doctor here. oh well.
so i hope that sickness goes away. i'm lucky cause i don't have that. however maybe i eat to much and that is why i'm having the problems i'm having. i know you are so excited to have the u/s have a blessed day Shawna

Shawna - That is awesome! Congrats on getting to hear your precious baby's heartbeat, I know that was a welcome sound for you. Was it by doppler or ultrasound? I hope your bowels get straightened out soon so you can be more comfortable.
The nausea/vomiting has set in in a serious way now. I haven't been able to keep most meals down. If I munch on something, I'm ok, but I can't eat a meal. I'm hoping for it to be over soon... I keep telling myself it's a good sign. Only another day until the next US. I'm praying that we can see a heartbeat! I'll be almost 7wks...

i got on here to update because of my previous losses i have been worried about the heavy cramping i was having today. so i went to er and the baby is doing very well and i heard a very hard strong beating heart of 175 beats
i think that i just have some irratable bowels that need some adjusting.
i am going to update the boards my least favorite update to do ladies i am going to take you off only when you say the final word. Gwen i hate this, i am so sorry, i am praying for you. you must be a seriously strong lady. Love Hugs and Prayers Shawna
cindy0714 Member # 13204 posted June 24, 2009 06:15 PM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gwen and Shakeya- I am really sorry for your losses. My prayers are with both of you ladies.
JamieJohnston Member # 13318 posted June 24, 2009 04:08 PM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Oh Gwen! I am so sorry for your loss! My heart aches for you and tears fill my eyes. There are not any words that I can say to make you feel any better. Just know that you and your family are in my prayers...
Honinurse - I read your other thread about the HCG results. Like someone said, you're still within the 76hr window, so I pray that this is just a lazy sticky bean. Please keep us posted. I too am a nurse, critical care/trauma. I get my results within hours, like you said. It's nice to have those connections, but then with our diagnosing minds, we worry about silly stuff. It's a double-edged sword... I'll be praying for higher numbers next time.
Shakeya - My heart goes out to you too. I pray that everything will be ok. If the pain gets worse, please go to the ER. You'll be in my prayers.
honinurse Member # 13569 posted June 24, 2009 03:26 PM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shakeya -- my heart is with you also. I am very sorry. I hope both you and momto10 heal quickly and have sticky beans next try. Lots of baby dust, hugs, and prayers for all of us!!!!
honinurse Member # 13569 posted June 24, 2009 03:22 PM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Oh momto10 my heart just dropped. I am so sorry. I am scared at my own numbers and knowing what is happening to you makes me ill. I have already said so many prayers, its time to say some more.
