At my clinic they don't suggest blood tests - they just tell you to do HPT 16 days from transfer and another one 2 days later. So they must be pretty accurate (at least at 16 days) if they rely on them. I think bloods just let you tell a little bit earlier. The wait is a pain - I had no symptoms in the interim, but was totally worth it! BFP! Good luck all of you waiting to test. Keep yourself distracted so you don't drive yourself insane.

Kimmy- You probally just tested too early. You still have almost a whole week until beta. If you keep testing I am sure you'll see the lines get darker. I did the "pregnant" digital 2 days before my beta, I held out on that one because I heard it takes more HCG to detect.

I did loads of tests both times. The first time I tested positive 1 day before the beta and my 1st beta was 76. The secnd time (this pregnancy) I tested positive 4 days before the beta and my first beta was 200.
Good luck!
