That's so sweet of you.  I'm wishing the same for you with your consult.  I saw your update from earlier today and am glad you will be able to go in with as much knowledge as possible.

I wasn't sure if I should post my update over here, but since you were nice enough to think of me, I'll share this.  We've been doing a daily 2WW check-in over on 2IF, and mine is the first one in this thread, with a little more info further down: http://community.thebump.com/cs/ks/forums/thread/70550346.aspx.

I've still got to get through tomorrow, but I'm cautiously optimistic.

I'm hoping you get some great info tomorrow and that CCRM turns out to be the place with the answers you need.  You're one of a handful of folks I'm extra special rooting for around here!

Please keep them crossed for me.  My bleeding turned red.  Took another FRER and it came up positive quicker and darker than this morning, but I'm still terrified I'm facing a CP.

I'm seriously praying it's just a SCH causing all this, but I just don't know what to think.  I'm so glad beta is in the morning and that the nurse promised to call me ASAP with results because I told her about the bleeding back when it was just brown.

I'm just glad the medicine my RE prescribed as a preventative measure for OHSS has a side effect of knocking me out, so I can get some sleep tonight.  There's no way I could do it unmedicated.

Thanks for the support and T&Ps ladies.  I'm happy to report that they helped!  My beta came back at 119, and as a result, my RE isn't concerned.  She is pretty positive it's a SCH at this point.  Today I'm back to brown spotting.  The nurse initially said my RE would do an u/s to check for an SCH on Friday at beta #2, but changed her mind, and said she didn't feel like we need to do that after all.

So, for now, I'm obviously very happy and cautiously optimistic until we get through the next 2-3 weeks and some ultrasounds.  

Thanks again for all the kind words!
