am I foolish for being optimistic?
Soooo..... For the past three cycles (one being our ectopic) I have had to take progesterone b/c my levels have been low. I know when an embryo implants it causes your progesterone to rise blah blah blah....
So I went for my BW at 7 days post IUI, my progesterones have been in the 3/4 range for the past 3 cycles..... The last cycle at 14 DP IUI and 2 weeks of progesterone my level was only 4 in change.
They called me yesterday, and i'm at a 10....the low level of normal, but still NORMAL!!
So ofcourse now i'm thinking (hoping) that maybe it means my levels are on the rise due to something having implanted. 
I hope I am not setting myself up for a bigger let down

Re: am I foolish for being optimistic?
It's never bad to be hopeful and optimistic.
I hope that it means something as well

Re: am I foolish for being optimistic?
You should always be optimistic.
A level of 3 or 4 means you may have Oed, but a very weak O. A level of 10 just shows that you Oed. It's the lowest level they'd like to see to support a possible pregnancy.
Are you being medicated?

Re: am I foolish for being optimistic?
Do me a favor and never lose that optimism! This journey can drain you of so much. Hold on to something to keep you going!
I think that's a great sign by the way! Praying for you!

Beta is Monday...i'm so nervous!! I'm working all weekend which will keep my mind off of it and I don't have any tests at home but knowing me i'll probably sneak in an OPK as that worked with our ectopic..... we'll see...
What about you? When is your beta?
