PREGNANT!!!!!!!

Ok so here is the new scoop.....Friday I was feeling weird (breats were really sore and couldnt stop going pee) so I decided to take a hpt. It came back positive!!!!! So I called Dr Conrad's office as soon as they opened Friday morning and went in for bloodwork. My nurse put a rush on the bloodwork and my HCG level came back at 856!!!!! She gave me paperwork and told me on Sunday to go to Crestwoods ER at 9:00 AM and have another test done. She put a rush on that test as well. So by 10:30AM on Sunday I received a phone call from my nurse and she told me my HCG level had gone up to 1382!!!!! It only went up by 61.5%, they were hoping for 66%. But she said by my symptoms she believes everything is fine. Im sooooo excited right now. I am approximately 2 weeks pregnant. I just have to get through the next 10weeks (so Im out of the first trimester). I go back to the Dr on Tuesday 5/27 for another bloodtest just to make sure my levels are still rising. SO please keep me in your prayers. I will let you know the resulsts as soon as that test comes back!!!!!

Provera/Savings

Well on Sunday (Mother's Day) I had to take another pg test, which came back negative. So I called in my rx to Walgreens and started the Medroxyprogesterone (generic for Provera). I am on day 4 of the pills. I have 6 more days to go. I am excited for my cycle to start because we are starting the Repronex Injectables this month. Im kinda nervous because of the percentage bracket we are in for multiples but at the same time I am excited because if I end up with multiples it is because that was God's plan for Tim and I.



We have been saving loose change in a jar for a little while now for "if" and "when" we get pregnant. That will be the start of our childs/ren college fund. There isnt much in there right now (only about $16) but considering it is loose change it isnt expected to be very high. Hehe



So we are keeping our heads up high and staying positive that this month may be the month!! We have decided not to reveal any blood results about this cycle until the Doctor gives a definite Yes or No. So just keep checking back!!! And as always keep praying with us!!



God Bless All Of Our Friends!!

Final Results!!!

Well the final results are in!! My hcg dropped to 4. They said it could still be to early to tell and for me to test on day 28, which is Mother's Day. If it is a negative I will start the Provera on Monday to start my cycle then we will do Repronex injectables on days 3-7.

So I haven't decided to give up yet. I am going to keep trying. I have cried today but I have to stay positive. It has only been 8 days since the IUI. So it could still come out positive.

I know God hears prayers so I will just keep praying.

4 Positives

WOW!!! We had 4 positive pg tests this weekend. 2 on Saturday evening, 1 Sunday, 1 Monday. I had blood work done on Monday to check my progesterone level and to see where my HCG level was. The results for that day are as follows:

Progesterone level is 23.8 (normal is 15), they said that is GREAT (especially because I don't normally produce hardly any progesterone at all without the aide of meds) and my HCG level is 12. My HCG level has to go up 50-66% for it to be positive!!

I had more blood work done today and we will know the results on Thursday. I have put a lot of faith in God to see that my tests come back positive. I have prayed so much the past few days its not funny. We have waited for this day for soooo long. So I will continue to pray that my HCG level has gone up (because that means I'm pregnant).

Anyone reading this......please pray with me!!!

I will update when the final results are in!!!
