well my RE does 2 sets of labs before beta to monitor levels not sure if thats common but I have seen people not take estrace after ET so I don't know it could just be their protocol. Asked ghost to help.
I do feel it is early for a +ive. so I will poas sun or mon to see if any change. I feel calm about it now no thanks to all of you

Hi ladies boy has this board gotten busy! Congratulations to all the BFP's. Sorry to hear of the BFN's.
Well I have been MIA for a while as I was trying not to jinks myself. I was extremely worried about my FET. I was scared I would get there that am and they would tell me my embryos arrested, but quite the opposite. I had one grade III with some fragmentation day 6 non-hatched and one grade II day 6 hatched. It was a difficult transfer in that it was hard for the RE to visualize my cervixes, yes I have two along with two urterus, so they put one embryo in each. Otherwise it went well, they kept saying they were stuck on something in my left uterus. The transfer was 10/12 I felt great that whole day, then yesterday began cramping/pinching feeling and spotting (sorry about the TMI but it was brownish) this has continued till today. Has anyone experienced this after ET? Any way I just got off bedrest and had to come check to see how everyone has been doing. My beta is scheduled for 10/23 1 week away!
Doddo - Congratulations! Sounds like you are getting ready for the fun part!
jcurlygurl - Congrats are in order for you as well! Sounds like your FET went fairly smoothly. WOW! 2 cervixes and 2 uteruses - that sounds like double the chances of a BFP to me!
Have you started progesterone (either shots or suppositories)? The progesterone kept me with cramps the whole 2ww. I did have just the tiniest bit of spotting after ET - but my RE had warned me about this.
BTW - how does your RE rate the embies? Is 1 the highest? or is 4 the highest?

Sprouthaus, that is amazing you mention the progesterone!!!! I have been on progesterone since 5 days before ET since I had 6 day blasts. But.... they had me increase it to twice a day the day after transfer. You are a genius!!! That makes total sense now. Thanks you helped put my mind at ease!
jcurlygurl wow 2 cervixes and 2 uteruses amazing i hope it doubles the chances looks like our betas are the same day I'm glad I have someone waiting with me. lots of luck to you.
sending great baby vibes to all

All I can say is be clam and stay as long as they will let you...then when you get home let hubby take care of you and stay in bed as long as you can. I stayed in bed 3 days!!!
jcurlygirl, i agree with sprout about the progesterone. i was on PIO from the ER to ET, then I was on suppositories twice a day. the PIO left me with lots of pg symptioms (sore boobies was the main one). it decreased after i stopped them, but still stayed in my system and gave me symptoms i had never had before. hopefully this is your time and you'll have great success with your unique situation! we need more BFPs!!
Hi Gang - bringing this thread to the top in hopes that Bubbles logs on and gives us good news! Maybe she and DH were out celebrating all night!
I was just looking at the schedule of betas and trippsmomma is due soon - haven't seen her on the thread lately, but still - BIG SHOUT OUT to trippsmomma - best of luck, tons of baby dust, BFP is coming your way!
harleyhoo - how did ET go? Let us know when you are off of bedrest...
Looking forward to my RE consult and first acupuncture appt this afternoon and going to my sister's house to spend time with my newest nephew
