I think you would be less stressfull by doing the test. You know every 2 days what your numbers are. If you wait it out you are going to be in stress everyday and always waiting. Once your numbers get to a point you have an US. If you didnt keep up with your numbers you would not have an US right away. I had 3 very good TR babies back to back they are 1,2 and 3 I got PG each year so I never thought I would ever have a tubal or a MC. In Feb of this year I got PG with Tr #4 but my numbers were not doing as they should. I didnt listen to my DR, I thought it would go up and everything would be fine. For me I waited to long.To make it short I had a tubal and lost my left tube.I did however get PG the next month and Im now 27 weeks with a reversal pregnancy . Now I have to be very careful. I only have one tube to work with, once its gone there is no hope. Do whats best, its only good for you and for the baby. You want to do everything you can do to keep both tubes, It does not take to much for a tube to break. I wish you the very best Khadija

You certainly have a good point, but I know that I personally would be a nervous wreck either way. I can't NOT get the HCG testing . Yes, I found the wait to be extremely stressful between draws. But I would rather have the results so that I know the numbers were doubling. And we don't want to risk a ruptured tube either. By the time you have pain..it could already be too late. I wish you the best, just be careful TR sister.

Okay, before I ask this, I just want to say please be kind. I know the after tubal reversal protocol ... I just had some thoughts I wanted to run by someone. We had a m/c in August... as soon as we found out we were expecting, we found an OB and started the HCG testing. The numbers never went up and we wound up having a m/c. I'm a huge believer of the effects of positive or negative energy affecting a situation. I'm wondering if all of the stressing over blood levels and all that can actually harm the baby. When I first went to the dr., I explained to him I'd had a tubal reversal . He said we'd be extra careful, and for me to be sure and tell him if there was any pain or anything like that. I told him what we'd been told when we had the surgery and he was more than happy to do the blood tests, so that was no problem. My question is, has anyone on here opted NOT to have the blood testing, and just monitoring it by the way you feel, and watching for symptoms of an ectopic pregnancy? Just wondering if focusing on the positive instead of worrying about the negative could help...
