FET #5 - BETA #1 Results

My BETA is 50 which is lower than I expected.  We were hoping for at least in the 100s.  My doctor wanted at least a 70 but he says I should stay on my meds and retest on Wednesday when they will want to see the number double.  It is safe to assume that there is only one baby fighting in there.  Please join us in praying for this FET #5 miracle to continue and that at least one of our babies will be able to be born on this earth.  The good news is that my home pregnancy tests have been darker each day and I do feel that pregnancy stretching in my belly.  My hope is that our one embryo that was less developed was a late implanter and slower grower and just needs a little more time.  We are trying to follow doctor's orders and stay optimistic which is hard to do after so many failed FETs and losses.  Stay tuned for another big FET #5 update on Wednesday.
Maybe Lena's sibling - top left - our least developed embryo - has just needed a little more time to develop.

Dear Lord, right now we lift this baby growing inside of her up to you. Only you can create and sustain life. We pray that You are knitting this precious life within her womb. We know You love this little one more than we can even understand. We pray with great faith and expectation that Wednesday's results are more than doubled and are well into the 100s. we pray this believing in You, Jesus. Amen.

Praying for your and your wonderful family. I know this wasn't the number you were hoping for, but I also know that God can do all things and accomplish all things!!! Nothing is too difficult for Him! Praying to hear that your numbers have doubled today and that you have His peace as you go into your appointment. Many hugs to you all from the Linenberger family. :)
