In 11 days we will know our fate.
The bleeding stopped last week which was a huge relief. I had another heart stopping moment where one of my HPT’s looked lighter than the day before. I’m not convinced if it’s a rogue or not but we will know in 11 days when we are booked in for a scan.
In the meantime, I’m having my second round of intralipid treatment. My cytokine levels didn’t come down into the normal range after two rounds of Humira so it’s the IV drip again for me.
Just for my records here’s my HCG’s to date:
5dp 5dt (10 dpo) – 49
7dp 5dt (12 dpo) – 125.
47 hrs between tests
11dp 5dt (16 dpo) – 542.
91 hours between tests
According to betabase, the doubling times between test 1 & 2 are faster than average. The doubling times between tests 2 & 3 are slower than average. So me being me, coupled with the bleeding and the one lightened peestick incident, will worry.
I will always find something to worry about.

I’ll be hoping the next 11 days go by fast for you, without additional worries, and that the news will be good. Hang in there as best you can.
Do you have any fingernails left? It all sounds very nervewracking. The fact that the bleeding has stopped is definitely a good sign and I’d be inclined to view the peestick as a rogue – so many factors involved in the peestick analysis: time of day, concentration of wee, make of peestick, particular batch etc, etc that I definitely wouldn’t use is as proof of anything other than you still have HCG in the system. Continuing to cross fingers for you!
You are, most definitely, a woman after my own nervously palpating heart!
Wishing you all the best and a wonderfully wonderful scan… And I hate the spotting. It absolutely messes with your head every time…
You’ve stopped bleeding. Good sign. Pee sticks? Diagnostic only. They’re designed to tell you if you are pregnant or not. Yes in general they will be darker with more HCG but that will vary. Each test is different, some come from different die lots, etc. I know this because I have analyzed this and fretted over lighter pee sticks.
You are pregnant. We don’t know the final outcome, but right now you ARE pregnant.
Thinking about you and keeping my fingers crossed.
