So I decided to take a look back at old blog entries over the past two years. Have two years already passed by since we started this whole process?
I was specifically seeking out the results of our first Beta HCG report. So it was June two years ago and the first blood test that they did was 23 mIU. We thought that was great at the time as it was more than 0! Unfortunately, that didn't work out. But...
We just got our blood test back from the transfer that took place on March 27 (transferred four embryos at Blastocyst) and it is... 831.25 mIU! Ummm. That's super high. Super. High.
We know that we have to keep guarded on this one and that we've been through this all before. BUT we have been through this with an initial blood test of 23 and this is 831. I'm hoping that this means that we have had really good luck this go around.
And now we wait. Next week will be the first scan to see what exactly is going on. The next scan (assuming all is good) would happen the week after.
Great news in what has been a tough week. We're headed in the right direction.
Thanks for everyone's encouraging comments. They no doubt helped make this a great start with the new clinic, donor and surrogate!
