Can anyone tell me what there levels were at end of TWW BT? My progesterone level was 30 and HCG was 70 (2 days prior to original BT) is this good???
I'm not sure about progesterone leves.....But that sounds like a really good hcg level for 2 days before BT! Congratulations! My clinic is happy with HCG levels that are over 100 on BT day, so I think thats pretty good for 2 days early. Are they getting you to have a repeat in 48hours to check its doubling ok? Hope everything is going really well!
Both are great levels. Congratulations
thanks ladies yeah im having another test today as iv had some spotting so fingers crossed alls good xx
Nice work 86! They're both really good levels apparently!
Hey ladies after bad cramps and slightly heavier bleeding today i was sure it would end in devastation but aparently not, my HCG level has more then doubled its now 178 and my progesterone level has increased too its 40 :) im relieved but still so scared, i think it will be a bumpy ride until the 3 month mark. so i guess i just need to try stay positive! the nurse said the pains and bleeding may be the placenta forming? i have another blood test mon to see how things are going. will keep u posted xx
Hi Oneday!
Just wanted you to know I'm right there with you hun. I have had BFP's with HPT's since Tuesday this week (t'fer was 16th June). Today I have been feeling odd, and have had some light spotting (pinkish) on wiping. The pinkish spotting seemed to have been a once off, but I now have coffee grain like discharge. My BT is also Monday.
Pretty stressful, huh! I am not sure I will sleep tonight. How are you travelling today? I hope you're ok and that our symptoms are just the little one nestling in more and / or the placenta is forming.
Let us know how you go Monday.
Rest up

Hey arielle, things have become worse over the past few days, the bleeding has increased and iv still had cramping :( iv done a home preg test every morning and the 2nd line has been slightly darker everyday? dont kno if thats a good thing? im prepared for the worst but hav also heard many stories where there has been worse bleeding then mine and still been a BFP so there is still a bit of hope. Im sorry to hear your also in the same boat, i will have my fingers crossed for you that evrything will be ok. i will let you know 2mo afternoon how i go xxxxx
How'd you go oneday? I have everything crossed so tight for you. I very much know how stressed you're feeling right now. I hope your levels are looking better again today.
I am still very much in limbo, but it's not looking fabulous. HcG levels today are 127 (day 17), and progesterone levels are quite low at 15. I am to double my crinone dose and go back for another BT on Wednesday. They were going to get me in on Friday for BT, but I couldn't wait that long. It will do my head in.
Nurse said our situation could go either way, but she doesn't want to give me false hope - there's a very real chance it won't be good news.
Let me know how you go hun.
Thinking of you and hoping you're ok

Hi arielle and oneday
Thinking of you both, hoping everything works out ok!
Good luck girls!
Arielle and Oneday - praying, hoping and crossing everything for both of you. Come on little ones stick, stick, stick!!
Cheers Trea
Trea, Kaybee and Milly's mummy - thankyou! I really appreciate your encouraging words. I sure need it right now.
Bit worried about oneday. Haven't heard from her again. I hope you are ok oneday. Thinking of you, and here for you either way hun.
AFM - did another HPT this morning. I very much expected to see the line getting fainter, but it hasn't. I know this should be a good sign, but I still can't bring myself to think positively about it all.
Thanks again ladies.

Hi ladies sorry for the late reply, things didnt go so well, my HCG was 518 yesterday which is border line ok for my stage of pregnancy and my progesterone level had dropped to 18 from 40 :( im now taking the pessaries analy as they think this might help my levels! im still bleeding!!!! iv had today and got the next 2 days off to rest. i have another blood test 2mo to see if things have progressed. i think at this stage embies only hope is if the progesterone obsorbs better analy. Im trying to stay positive as i believe this embryo really want to be here, 3 times now iv thought it was over but embie is still hanging in there so i think i need to fight with it.
Arielle how did things go?? im thinking of you and thank you for caring and thanks other ladies for your support too. will keep you posted tomorrow xxxxxxx
Hi oneday! I was starting to worry hun. I'm glad to hear from you, but am sorry to hear you're still in limbo. I really hope the rectal progesterone does the trick. This in limbo bizzo is really not fun is it!!!
I am hoping with all my being that your little embie does decide to hang around hun. It has proved it's a fighter a few times now, surely it can do it again! Hang in there little one.
AFM - not sure if you saw my post from yesterday. No more bleeding, but BT yesterday (day 17) has come back with a VERY low Progesterone level (15), and the hCG levels aren't overly high for day 17 either (127), but are apparently still within normal limits. Nurse seems to think it's not looking good, but could go either way. My Crinone dose has been increased.
Anyways, tomorrows BT will give us a better idea of how much hope we have. Fingers crossed we both have some good news very soon.
Thinking of you
Arielle
Well good luck Arielle i will be thinking of you 2mo, thats a good sign no bleeding. does day 17 start from transfer day?
Goodluck with everythind and i too will have my fingers crossed xxxx
Thanks oneday! Best of luck to you too.
Day 17 is how old the embie is (it was t'ferred as a day 5 embie, and day 17 was 12 days post t'fer).
I'll check in on you tomorrow.
Take care

Im devastated, just got the call to say its all over my hcg was 509 and was 518 on mon and my progesterone had dropped from 18 to 13. I knew it was going to happen but i didnt want to believe it. Its my birthday tomorrow, and what an awesome present i got!!! i just want to crawl in a hole and never come out. Im so hurt i feel like a failure and that its my body's fault.
Arielle i hope your test came back okay iv been thinking of you xxxx
Oh oneday!! I am so so sorry! I wish it didn't have to be this way, but please, whatever you do, do NOT blame yourself. It is most likely a case of a non-viable embryo that stopped growing. So hard to accept, but just about always it's not anything you did wrong. You are not a failure by any means, and your body will someday (hopefully before long) prove this to you, when your forever baby snuggles in tight . Be kind to yourself right now. If you feel like crawling into bed and not talking to anyone then DO IT!!! I am here if you need to chat ok. Feel free to pm me.
AFM - I am still in the dark. Would you believe the clinic can't find my results!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am beside myself!!!! When does this EVER happen? They have said I will hopefully have results in the morning, but they cannot guarantee it as there's a remote chance the courier took the blood to the wrong pathology lab, and it has gone missing. Grrrrrrrr!!!!!! I have opted to re-test again in the morning, so am STILL waiting til tomorrow arvo.
I will let you know then. Still no bleeding and HPT line got darker again today, so I am a tiny bit more hopeful, but still not able to let myself get too hopeful.
Shall be in touch tomorrow.

Thanks Arielle, yeah i know its prob not my fault i just dont understand why it wont work. I used to think when we first started IVF i wont have a miscarriage, god wouldnt do that to me iv already been through enough. but i guess we never know how the world is going to work and obvioulsly for some reason we have to go through this.
I cant believe they lost your results! thats horrible, i hope ur ok i know how much you wait and wait for those results and then to have to wait another day is horrible. Well im glad there is no more bleeding thats a gr8 sign, i have everything crossed for you and will look forward to hearing your results 2mo xxxx
Hi.i transfer 2 blasts at 16/6.at 28/6 my beta was 20.do you think that will change?i am very scared.
Hi,
Oneday - that sucks. :comfort: This whole thing is so unfair. Wish I could boost you up but am feeling like crap myself right now too. You're not alone :hug: Don't stay down in that lonely dark hole for long - here if you need to vent/chat/anything
Arielle - how frustrating!! Things are at least looking very promising for you. What a tease this is for you!! Good luck
Dinaki - I don't know enough about hcg levels to say much, it does sound pretty low though. Sorry hun :shakehead:
Oh one day I'm so so sorry to hear that, such horrible timing too with your b'day tomorrow. Sending you lots of hugs! Take care of yourself.
Arielle, how frustrating, hope everything is ok tomorrow.
Dinaki, will you be having a repeat bloodtest, my nurses often tell me to focus on the doubling time rather than the initial level, hope that helps.
Thinking of you today oneday. Hope you're ok and being super kind to yourself.
Yesterdays results came through, and so have todays
yesterday: P4 = 27 hCG = 318
today: P4 = 31 hCG = 542
The clinic is happy with this, and of course, so am I. I was SO sure it was all over after mondays results, this is going to take a while to sink in. P4 is still on the low side, but they are happy now that it's over 30, and I am just to continue on with the triple dose Crinone, and have another BT next week.
Oneday - I look forward to the day when you will be announcing your sticky BFP!! Don't lose faith hun. You WILL get there ok
Look after yourself, and thanks for your support.

Thanks Arielle, i am so so happy for you and glad they found your results! good luck with the rest of your pregnancy and i too look forward to joining you in the pregnancy forums one day xxxxxx
Hi oneday! just wanted to give you an update and let you know you're not alone yet again.
Yesterday I started bleeding. It eased off today, but a scan and BT have confirmed our worst fears. Our little one has grown wings.
Looks like it's back to the drawing board for both of us.
How are you going with it all? I have been thinking of you and hoping you're ok.
Hope you've got something nice planned this weekend to help you feel good.
Take care ok
Arielle
Arielle, I'm so so sorry. Can't imagine how you must be feeling. Look after yourself during this awful time :hug:
Arielle, i dont know what to say :( it is such a horrible time but you know what with everyday that comes i do feel a bit better iv stopped crying everyday i now just think about things like i was supposed to be having my 7 week scan on wed and how special that would have been but i have been trying to not focus on it to make the time go quicker as i now have to wait till my next period comes to start again. I truly hope your okay and just know that your not alone and im always here to chat if you need it, and also i have been thinking about you and wondering how you are :) Are you now having a break or starting straight up? My best advice is do what you feel is best, we have had everyone tell us to have a break thats why we have decided not to tell anyone this round because only we know whats best for us and we dont need the extra pressure of family and friends telling us to change our minds. I believe trying to have a baby is my whole life, its the only thing that makes me feel complete at the moment and i will never give up untill we get our dream.
Im sending many hugs your way and hoping your doing ok xxxxxxxxxxx

I have just fallen pregnant after 2 attemts of IVF and my Hcg levels are at 4000 however my progesterone levels were at 30 and that is considered very low as they should be at 100, the Dr has put me on Pessaries twice a day and a crione two time a day as well as provera tabs.
Has anyone else experienced this. I did have a small bleed however it now has stopped. The nurses have said that we are in a very grey area as we are only 5 weeks pregnant (with IVF you find out super early)
Wishing you the very best of luck Samurai! Your hcg levels look pretty good to me. From my understanding they like progesterone to be atleast 30, so yes, your levels are on the low end of ok, but still ok as far as I know. I have seen people have lower levels than this, and go on to have a live birth (with some progesterone support early on). It's a tense time, I know. Just do your best to hang in there hun, and take things a day at a time. Be kind to yourself!
Ari
I have had two bleeds since finding out that levels are low so a bit concerned.
Has anyone else experienced this. The nurses said not to put all my eggs in the provera bucket. it is just nerve racking.
The bleeding freaks me out. There is no cramping just bleeding.
