Hi ladies,

I hope everyone had a wonderul 4th of July. I'm worried if I over did it. I didn't rest at all yesterday trying to entertain guests. I didn't think about until I went to bed. Oh well... I still have sore boobs and occasional nausea but that's it. I hope everything is alright.

Hi Jessica- You mentioned about POAS. I did it and got +HPT on 6dp5dpt transfer. However, last year's IVF, I didn't get +HPT until day of beta. I believe it is too early for you. You betas can double so quickly at any time. I know it easier said than done but try to stay positive. 2ww week wait is the hardest time. When is your beta date?

Mrs Ready--Yes, I had lots of cramping, nausea, spotting and sore boobs too and it's so hard to figure if it is pregnancy related or coming your medicine protocol. Hang in there.

Hazel- That's interesting to hear you received a HCG shot after FET. I received this shot only when I did fresh IVF last year.

Fetility socks--Congrats on your second beta. Hoping your embies continue plant and grow.

Midum- How are you holding up? Good luck with your sono tomorrow.

Kelly-- Wishing for a positive beta report tomorrow..

z-momma-I notice my nausea goes away I eat too. That's so weird.

Me too. I have real fits of fear of seeing an empty sac.

Good luck tomorrow Kelly!!

Well i POAS this am and got a , awaiting blood results, but pretty sure it didnt happen this time. I didnt think it would considering i didnt have the best quality embryos. I already have an appt set up with a new RE, so i am looking foward to the new options!!

[ClovesA]

Gina, I'm not feeling too negative about feeling premenstrual feelings... Sort of recall feeling that way when prego with ds. Just wish I had sore bbs as well. I think if I don't stop checking them 800 times a day they are going to be.

You are strong for not poas! I am most likely going to tomorrow since I would be 7dpt.

The wait is hard... I did have that pinching feeling in my uterus last Wednesday through Friday and last Thursday I had cm with little brown flakes in it which I took to be old blood. Hoping all that meant implantation...

Kelly, let us know about your blood work today. Don't know what kind of hpt you used but many of them don't detect hcg until 150 or more. RE only wants to see your level at at least 100. Good luck honey!!!

[Hazeld0409]

Kelly, good luck with your beta! It's not over till beta so hang in.

Zmomma, sorry you're not feeling well. I understand because I felt crappy all weekend but I guess it's what we wanted heehee

Fertility, why can't we just enjoy this amazing experience? It's like there's so much to worry about, so many milestones that seem to far to reach!! I may be seeing my ob this week for another beta to reassure myself because my RE's office assistant said before my u/s on 7/16 they'd do a beta to make sure I was still pregnant-well thanks for the positive vibes!

I had a long talk with a friend of mine who had two m/c and my husband yesterday, and I am feeling much better. We decided:

1. I am already getting much better care than the average pregnant woman

2. I am on progesterone, which probably would have prevented my friend's two m/c

3. I am doing everything possible to prevent a m/c

So its out of my hands, and I just need to enjoy each day. So please repeat that to me every day for the next 13 until my ultrasound!

I think I need to repeat that to myself too!

Cryslin- I have also been very sleepy(heavy head/dizzy), I think its prometrium.

hi girls

congrats to all the .im soo happy to see how FET is working for so many o us!!!! here goes to all that are waiting for beta .

iv been with something on my mind and since i dont understand much how all this works,im hoping to figure it out with all of you..

can beta be accurate with only 7 day post transfer??
a friend of mine has had here beta today,(her doc.doesnt know)and came out negativ..but i think its too soon!! mine is only 13 days past transfer ( july 8) my go says that before that,the results wont be for sure!

thanks again for your help.

[Julianne]

Solange - Your friend's beta does seem sort of soon, even if she had 5-6 day embies. However, it may just be too soon for a urine test, but fine for a blood test.

Crislyn -Glad I could make you smile. We need to see all symptoms, or lack thereof, as a good thing simply because there's no reason not to. If I learned anything from my fresh cycle, it's that you can't brace yourself for bad news. You think you can and you think you did, but that phone call with the negative still really hurts. So you might as well be positive. If the end result is negative, then at least you enjoyed the ride as best you could.

Wanna - Yay! Same beta day! Seems like a long ways off in some respects, but not long at all in others! Makes no sense, right? I'm now 6dp3dt, so it's way too early for me to consider an HPT. I've been mildly crampy since transfer, mostly on the left side. Today I feel centrally crampy, with a little lower back pain, so it all feels more like PMS. No spotting yet, but I won't panic when it happens.


Socks - Great second beta! Congratulations! Don't worry about the 2WW to U/S. Just enjoy the feeling of a nice strong beta! Worrying doesn't help anything.

Jessica - You're probably testing too early. With my fresh cycle, I didn't get a positive pegnancy test until the day AFTER my beta because my numbers were so low. Though I didn't, many start with low betas and still do great. Give it a few days.

Midum - Good luck with your U/S today!! Very exciting!!

Kelly - Hold out for the beta results today. You may just have a low number that the HPT isn't picking up yet. That's what happened to me. It isn't over until beta says it's over.

Hope everybody is going great!! Hang in there girls!!
