I had my embryo transfer May 11th and I'm due for my first blood test tomorrow morning. I'm a bit nervous because I just started feeling some really bad back pain - kind of cramping feeling which I usually get when I'm about to get my cycle. Anyone else experiencing back pain?
Faith77 - So excited for you!!! Hoping for a BFP! Keep us posted.
My patience is cracking and I am super close to taking a HPT! Just have to convince the DH, which is not an easy task. I think its only fair considering the holiday will be pushing my beta out an extra day. Nothing else new going on. Still some slight twinges every once in awhile and enlarged tata's that are a little tender. Otherwise I feel totally normal.
dixie_chop - I'm not sure about the possiblity of a false positive, I have always been told that HPT's are not always accurate. That is why I stayed away from them. I know I would have been the one to have an inaccurate reading and get excited or down based on the HPT, and then find out different results from Beta. Anyway- I wish I could be more help. I am assuming since you asked you got a positive on your HPT? You are braver than I am - I pray it is correct:)
AFM- I am waiting (rather unpatiently) for the phone call with my beta results- My test was this morning @ 8am- I wish I had a distinct feeling one way or the other, but I don't. I have prepared myself for the reality of a BFN; but still praying for a miracle BFP! DH and I are headed out of town today - so hopefully I will get results before we leave and I will post if not I may not be back on Message Board until Sun or Monday~ we are not sure about internet access on trip. Wishing you the best!
I bought one, but I haven't actually taken it yet. I am prepared for a false negative. I know that its early so I wouldn't get upset over that. But if I did get a positive, and it was wrong, I would be upset. It was my understanding that there aren't false positives, only false negatives but I wanted to make sure before I do it.
Well good luck either way- I would have done one last night if I had one
in the house. My DH offered to go buy one and I said no, we've waited this long. But I am still waiting for the phone to ring and I will be honest. I am about to head out to the store and buy one if I don't get a call soon. The suspense is killing me:)
Faith03 - I am so sorry about your BFN. did they tell you when you can try agin?
Faith77- what happened with your beta?
I caved this morning and took a HPT. It was a first response and it was definitely 2 lines. I was worried I would get a faint line and then wonder or obviously get none, so I was happy to see the second line come up clearly. My DH looked at me, like I can't believe you took one anyway, but how can i be mad at you if its positive. So hopefully, the blood test will confirm the BFP on tuesday.
We are going to the beach this weekend. The positive results are going to make not drinking and avoiding the jet ski's a whole lot easier.
Faith 03 - I am so sorry to hear about your BFN- I hope you and DH are doing ok, as much as we prepare for it- it still can't make it easier; you are in my prayers/
dixie_chop- I am so glad you got a positive HPT- keep us posted on the beta on Tues.
AFM- Beta was Friday morning @ 8am- and we waited all day- did not get a call from my doctor until after 3pm. The day lasted forever! Anyway- the wait was worth it- we got a BFP!! My beta # was 466~ so she said it "suggested" twins; but could still be a singleton. Either way we are thrilled and cautious- so much can go wrong I feel like I can't be totally relieved yet. Monday(tomorrow) morning I have my second beta BW, so we will see if the #'s increased as they should.
To everyone else- Stay strong during this 2ww- I wish all the best in whatever you face this week:)
Hi everyone,
I would like to join you in this forum: I have my Et yesturday and now I started my 2ww.
As for me we transfered 2 eight cell embryos yesturday. The third embrios we had just did not make it. . Dr said that the two embryios were very big and had no fragments in their dna. Now I pray that the two or one we transfered will decide to stay with me untill feb. Hope they make themselves all cozzy.
I cried when the dr put in the two embryos . I was excited and very happy. DH went pale when he saw the long tube that they use for transfering and of course he was very excited.
Dr. told me to take it easy yesturday until tuesday. I can move around house. Tuesday I can go back to work.
I have my beta testing and pregnancy test on June 4th
Everyone have a wonderfull day.
Eve
Hi ladies~
I would like to join you I had my et yesterday. I transferred two embies, 4 were frozen and 4 they are watching today. This is my first IVF cycle, I am 24 and my dh is 25 with male factor infertility. My b/w for beta is on June 3rd which seems like forever away right now, does any have any advice for me during the tww? I have been feeling a little crampy since yesterday from et is that normal?
Hi Everyone, Usmcwife14,
Congrats on your transfer. I also had mine yesturday and I am having mild cramps. Faith77 How great about the twins
Congratulations to all the BPF
Any advice on these 2ww
Have a wonderful day.
Eve
Faith77- CoNgRaT's on the BFP!!!! How excting!!! Twins would be so awesome!!!
Good luck to everyone else who is still waiting!!! I have my Beta on Friday, I can't wait!!! I am kinda worried though, cause I feel great, no cramps or anything. I only have sore boobs but they have been sore for a while from all the IVF meds. Anyone get a BFP with absolutely no other symptoms?? We only had one embryo to transfer so I'm really nervous!!
Also, hope everyone has a wonderful Memorial Day!!!!
