5w0d

Well, it's been a bit of a roller coaster last week. Beta #1 on Monday was 35 at 14 dpo. Typically, they are around 100. I also started spotting some on Monday, so I spend the day a bit upset. Decided to go ahead and go for beta #2 on Wednesday and low and behold the beta was 79. Doubling time of 40.87 hours. Pretty good! Go figure. I guess it was a late implanter. So, here I am at 5 weeks 0 days, still spotting some here and there. Just waiting and hoping that little person is growing and developing ok in there. I could have done a 3rd beta, but I was working all day and couldn't get over to do it, so we set up an ultrasound for Nov 29 first thing in the morning. 2.5 weeks will take forever to get here. I am just hoping and praying that we can make it to that u/s, then that the little person has a good strong heartbeat. I'm literally taking this one day at a time right now. Everyday I just hope I don't spot. I know it can be "normal" but it scares the crap out of me. It is almost devistating to think that we will have to start over again if this doesn't work out. It's hard to think about. Anyway, I guess for now I'm still pregnant and will keep hoping and praying for this little person.
