Well, I had my Beta done today at 8:30am. I hadn't heard back by 10:30 so I called the office for the results. The nurse said, "Sorry, but the results are negative, your beta is 2." She then proceeded to explain ...which I have heard a million times....that anything below 5 is considered negative. I asked the nurse why my beta was 2 and not 0? She told me that it was likely because the embryo tried to implant but was unsuccessful. BUMMER! How can 5 follicles and such a good semen sample NOT produce a baby? I guess this explains why about 8dpiui by entire breasts were tender and now just the nipple area is. This would also explain why I got a faint line on a pregnancy test at 12dpiui and a negative on 13dpiui.
I spoke with Eric and he made me feel so much better. We tossed around various ideas of next steps. We have decided that for the next 3 months we will eat healthy,(organic), get in good shape, and that I will consult with a naturopathic doctor who specializes in fertility. (more importantly woman with thin uterine lining and multiple miscarriages, such as myself) At the end of that 3 month time we will reconvene and determine if we are up for going back to the fertility doctor or not. Our issue is that we have had much more success getting pregnant on our own. We have had ZERO lucky conceiving with the help of a fertility doctor. With that being said maybe my body doesn't like all of the chemicals that I am putting in it. I have had one successful and natural pregnancy. There has to be a reason why things are not working. Maybe I am not processing something or lacking something. It can't hurt to try something else.
Has anyone read, The Infertility Cure?
