We got an unexpected BFP on Friday. I'm not sure what to think about it but we are moving forward as best as we can.

Beta #1 came back today at 146. My RE started me on progesterone just for protocol and if my numbers double they will start me on Lovenox injections later this week. That is the highest number I've ever had, so I'm trying to be hopeful. I'm about 4w2d according to my LMP.

So ready or not, we are back on the pgal roller coaster. I'm an anxious mess and would sincerely appreciate all of your thoughts and prayers both for a healthy baby as well as for my sanity.

UPDATE: beta 2 is 360. More than doubled, yay. My RE is happy with that number and said I don't need a third draw. I start lovenox injections tonight. U/S at 7wks. I'm still extremely nervous, but the good betas are enough to help me relax for the weekend.
