Unhappy Betas rising but bleeding and cramping - ADVICE?

Hello,

This is my second IVF. My first ended in 5 weeks m/c where I started bleeding and my Betas dropped. This time around my Betas were higher from day one... not by much but higher. They are going up but yesterday I started bleeding! Its like a watered down blood (orange/pinkish) but enough to cover the TP when I wipe. (TMI). Dr. said come in ASAP. Did another blood test and levels went up!! WHAT DOES THAT MEAN??? My levels are in my signature... looking for words of wisdom!

Are you on PIO or suppositories? With my first IVF, I had light bleeding/spotting the entire first trimester due to the suppositories. I know it's hard not to worry, but your betas look good, and the blood isn't heavy or bright red, so I think you're ok. Good luck.

No. No suppositories. I am taking prenatals, progesterone shot, estrogen patches, and baby aspirin (which I stopped when I started bleeding).

Sounds like you're doing good to me. Lots of women have spotting for different reasons, and I think mild cramping will last the entire pregnancy. Just try to take it easy the next few weeks. I know this situation can be stressful, because I was there myself.
