My wife's OTD was today.

We achieved another positive result โ˜บ๏ธ (we've done 5 tests this week, never had a positive before this round of IVF) she had her blood test this morning and hCG level is 87. It's a strange feeling after waiting to see a + for 6 years

๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜ฎ

However she is still spotting so the hospital have put her on progesterone injections as well as pessaries.

She has no pain and the medical staff have no worries. We get a scan date next week ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

Has anyone else experienced the bleeding/progesterone injections?

Thank you

Will she have anther hcg 48 hours after the first to check her numbers are doubling?

Some people still spot on progesterone but maybe they should check her levels. I need to be on 2 x Lubion injections per day plus 4 x cyclogest pessarie per day that's a lot but it helps to keep my levels where they should be xx

The IVF unit want me to call them on Monday to give them an update. Her hCG was 87 yesterday and they have no worries. I think they may do blood test next week I'm not sure yet. Good luck to you x
