Ghost- Beta leval below 6, 9dp5dt w/PGD

Ghost or anyone,
I had a 5 day embryo transferred 9 days ago(well actually they transferred at around 1pm and I tested at 7am). We did PGD to screen for cycstic fibrosis. I was supposed to have my beta test this Monday, 17dpo, but I asked to move it up. Have been having no symptoms and was convinced ...

Well I think I was right, and that I am not pg, but now I really do have to wait until Monday to know. Basically, when I moved my appointment the nurse told me that I was running the risk of having an inconclusive test because with PGD, there was a cell removed, so the numbers tend to be low anyway ...

Claud- I am praying for you. So hard! Maybe it was two and now one...

Skylar- I am so glad that you have been able to be so strong through all of this. You are better at living in the moment than me. I guess I never felt really PUPO mainly I think because the ET was so traumatic, just overwhelming ...

my nurse must know how nuts i am because she told me i could come in on friday instead of monday for my beta (9dp5dt), but to expect that even if it was positive it would be really low- with PGD they take a cell out of the embryo on Day 3 so the development is a little delayed and the HcG won't be ...

Katie- Thank you so much for the boost! I dont ...

I will come back for personals later. Transferred 1 blast today that was not affected by CF. I think they are freezing one non-affected blast, one carrier blast and 3 that need to be rebiopsied but all made it to blast. The others of our 12 either didn't make it to blast or had cf so we aren't going ...
