ssg73 - my RE waits until 8wks!! It is pure torture! Luckily he's out when I turn 8wks, so the nurse is squeezing me in at 7w6d....only 6 more days...only 6 more days...

ssg73 that does feel late for an RE, but it sounds like whodey had to wait too! Crazy!
we need some distractions for the wait crazies (that's a thing right?!) My trip to NYC for work helped, but I think I overdid it yesterday and ended up with those debilitating cramps again. I'm not sure how much longer I can keep putting my running friends off until they suspect something, but a lot activity seems to bring on these crazy intense cramps at night for like 5-10min. It's scary so I'm not doing anything until my u/s
Next week is a crazy but good week so that will be good. Last 3 days of "teaching". Monday field trip, Tuesday trivia day, Wednesday half day and last day!!! Then half day work day Thursday. Friday my BFF comes into town for a visit (her parents live here she lives in MI). We also have a birthday party on Friday at a cool charity packing care packs for children in need. Sat is the Ingrid Michaelson concert and dd's first concert. She loves her some Ingrid! Then Sunday is dd's birthday party. I have a gazillion projects to do between then and now. Oh and I guess I should finish grades before they are due Wednesday. So perhaps I will be distracted and not obsess. Oh who am I kidding.
ssg73, we also have have to wait until 7weeks. Mine happens Monday at 10am and I cannot wait! I had a bfp at 9dpo, so it feels like I've been waiting for a 7w ultrasound forrrrrrrever.
I also had to wait until 7 weeks for my first u/s, after only 2 betas. Longest, slowest 3 weeks of this entire pregnancy. I know exactly how you feel ssg73. I hope the next week flys by for you!
Trying for #3; FET 8/18 -- BFN. Leaving things up to chance for now... After three years, three IVFs, and two FETs, we finally have our miracle babIES!
Yes! I feel like I got spoiled by all the early scans and reassurance. My last u/s was Monday at 7w, and my next one won't be until I'm 11.5 weeks for the CVS. It feels like such a long time! I guess it could be worse. With V I had a scan at 5w, then nothing until the NT.

Wonderful spearmintleaf! How many days past transfer are you?
12, why? I'm in new territory.
My nurse told me they like to see the beta around 50 at this time (2ish weeks post retrieval). It sounds like your first beta was on the early side. I'm sure all drs have different guidelines, but I thought you might get some additional comfort from hearing you're in line with what my office likes to see.
