381
So what I thought was a good number turns out to be "not quite where we would have liked it" according to my RE's nurse :( They want to see at least a 1.5 x's rise which would have been 389 & obviously I am not quite there...but almost. My progesterone was >20 which is good so all meds will remain the same until further notice.
So the plan is to repeat my levels on Wed & see what that shows. This is so frustrating & a pain to have to get blood drawn every 2 days. Since I am on Lovenox AND baby aspirin my arm is bruised horribly so I will definitely be glad when the blood draws are done.
On to beta #4...

Okay, probably overthinking this, but what if you'd gone in this afternoon instead of this a.m.? The level could have jumped by 8. The numbers seem so arbitrary, you know? You're still increasing, and therefore I'm still hopeful. Hang in there, H.T. You're still going in the right direction!
I'm going to agree with the previous comment.. 7 points can't be that much to feel concerned over right? I still think this is IT!! Hang in there sweetie!!
Since Michelle already "seconded" Cori, all in agreement that this is still encouraging, hopeful news- say "Aye"! AYE!!! =) I'm gonna haul out the big guns tonight and tomorrow night and say an extra prayer each to St. Philomena and St. Gerard. (not sure if you're the prayin' type, but by now you know I am!)
you're still doubling every 72 hours and I'm remaining very hopeful!!
See, Cori is the smartest one. :-) 8 points IS arbitrary and your numbers are going in the right direction so you are still in the game!!!
Praying for you so so much!!!
Desiree, I just need to tuck you in my back pocket. I need a cheerleader sometimes. ;)
My co-worker Sheryl, who is the most Godly woman I know, prayed together for you and Shane last night. Crossing my fingers for you tomorrow.
