Hey everyone, I was really hoping for some help. This is my 3rd transfer, transfer 1 chemical, transfer 2 MMC with my twins at nearly 12 weeks, now transfer 3 I’m 5+4. My tests this whole pregnancy has been awful, for example 9dpt my line was a lot lighter than the day before & my beta came back at 240, 10dpt I went almost negative so repeated beta on 11dpt they went to 790 then on 13dpt 1951, even with all this happening my tests just arnt matching, my clinic thinks maybe 2 babies implanted again and one stopped growing hence the lighter tests then they have started picking up as a singleton. My last pregnancy I had complete dye stealers but trying to remind myself that was twins, anyway I tested today again with anxiety ( I know I shouldn’t have) it was my first time from 5 days ago, and my lines are the same as the control, old me would have been delighted but because online all I’m seeing is dye stealers at this stage or it’s end game.

Any success stories would be sooo appreciated, I genuinely am so sick with worry, this time I haven’t told anybody I done another round as the first 2 times I hated having to take back my good news, I’m 25 and use to being an over sharer I just don’t know what to think.

5+4 pregnant today, ivf baby!

Hi OP, didn't want to read and run.

I understand how worried you are, the IVF adds a lot of anxiety to early pregnancy! I'm nearly 10 weeks and still anxious as anything. But just to reassure you, your line looks good. At this stage the tests and even blood tests should be phased out in favour of the scan data.

The home urine tests aren't designed to monitor progress (although we all try to use them this way!) And beta doubles more slowly the higher it gets. If your situation allows it, maybe consider booking a private scan at 6 weeks? You could have it in a few days and see if the pregnancy is visible, correctly located and measuring on track.

Good luck, hope you have an easy pregnancy!

Hi lovely, thank you so much for replying you have no idea how much I just need to talk to people in the same boat. Firstly congratulations on your pregnancy, you’re very close to the 2nd trimester now🙏🏼🙏🏼 and iv genuinely spent the last few hours searching stories & tests at this stage and they are all die stealers which I think is what’s getting me. Trying to remind myself even when my tests where lighter they where still nearly 2k HCG. And thankfully I’m with the EPU following my last twin loss so I have a scan on Monday, they wanted me in this Friday @6weeks but I’m scared to need a few extra days for a heart beat so holding out to Monday🤞
