I can't believe I'm even posting this:

Beta #3-HCG-36.7, progestgerone 25.2
It's dropped from 120 to 36.7

The nurse said that it's probably a chemical pregnancy, but that she will give the results to the RE and someone will call me back.

I can't believe this-after 3+ years, I finally get a BFP, and now this. I tried to see online if there was any hope here-maybe there was a twin that was lost, or something, but I doubt it.

I want to throw up, I'm so upset. I can't even cry. I don't know what to do. I don't know what to think right now.


**update**

Nursey P just called-the RE wants me to stop all medications and wait for my period. It's a chemical pregnancy.

I'll go in on Tuesday for one more beta, to make sure it's 0, then they want me to come in to see the doctor.

I just can't believe this. I was pregnant, and now I'm not.

I don't know if I can go through another IVF cycle. I don't know what I want to right now, except curl up into a ball and die.

Maybe this is a sign, maybe I shouldn't try anymore. Maybe I should just give up.

oh honey. oh fuck. It's MORE than a chemical pregnancy, it's a miscarraige.

ok - you know that wine Sean brought home - open it now - you heard me, open it now - there's something romatic about drinking with the sun up, it helps alleviate the misery just a tiny little bit...

much love to you, I'm calling right now.

I am so incredibly sorry. I'm sure that this is very devastating after all you've been through. I wish I had something better to say that would help, but I know that nothing will. This is just rotten rotten rotten news. :( :(

I'm so sorry, hon. Agreeing with Shelli, it's a miscarriage. And definately open a bottle of wine. We're here for you.

New to your blog, came here via Shelli, so I don't know you but I do know this. NO ONE should have to go through what's happening to you. I am so sorry for you and wish you strength and peace to get through the difficult time you're in.

So, so sorry for everything you have had to endure. This path we travel on is so disheartening and so completely life-draining. I pray that these next few days, you rest and spend time with your family. I hope that your healing comes sooner rather than later. There are so many of us who have been through it, myself included, so we are here if you need us.

Terribly sorry to hear your news. It's just not fair. You have every right to curl up in a ball.

Oh sweetie. I came here from Shelli's blog. I am so sorry for your loss. I suffered a m/c last summer after 11 years of ttc. I made it to 14 weeks and then we lost our sweet angel girl. Please know how much I am hurting for you. It just plain sucks. Many many gentle hugs to you.

I hate that term, "chemical pregnancy." Like it wasnt a real one.

Crap crap crap. I'm so sorry you are going through this. Stay close to your loved ones, and get lots of snuggle therapy. There are plenty of people out here to support you through this too.
