    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!

    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

    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
