The clinic rang with today's results.
HCG up to 15,684 - that's just over double in the 72 hours since last test. Progesterone is up to 163.
Head Doc thinks no need for IVI.g just yet but i'm back in on Wed for another scan to see how the little one's doing.
Feeling a little more like this could go the right way.

A London couple's struggle to conceive
.
About Me
- Portia P
- I'm a 43 year old ex Londoner just moved to Hertfordshirewith my gorgeous husband. Attempt to multiply began "in sin" but, just after our wedding, tests revealed severe MF meant we could try all we liked but without a modern day miracle - or at least the wonders of science, we'd always be two. We were instantly launched into a whole new world of acronyms - the land of ART. After two and a half years trying to escape back to a world where full names rule, at the grand old age of 39 yrs and 11mths, I gave birth to our little miracle and two became three. Almost exactly 2 years later, our one frozen embryo turned into our second miracle and we are four. Still amazed and grateful.

Yay! I hope you continue to get nothing but good news.
Thanks so much for the update. You've been in my thoughts and prayers!
Dear Portia, that is very good news. Very good. Will continue to send good vibes and thoughts your way.
Wow. Dr Doom really earns his nick, doesn't he? Glad things are looking up today. I guess it'll be a long, slow breath out.
