I had my beta today too. Won't get results until tomorrow morning though. I told them not to call me, that I will call them for the results instead, because otherwise I'm just going to be antsy all morning.

I've also been taking HPT's... actually since Friday I think (I know I'm bad). Obviously that was too early. Every day since then I've been taking one, and they've all been negative. Today's though... looked like there was a very very faint line... or my mind is playing tricks on me. I guess either way I'll know tomorrow.

This is too scary.

(By the way I didn't get a second interview. So that's been resolved.)

Jandc: sorry to read your beta was neg. It is exactly a roller-coaster, ups and definitely downs, mentally, physically, spiritually sometimes. I know nothing makes it any better, but my thoughts and prayers are for your peace and strength, if its in your heart then I believe it will happen (somehow).

dtao: how can you stand that they don't call you with the results sooner??!!! I thought waiting until the afternoon was bad, but to have to wait ALL NIGHT, that is just torture! I'm thinking positive (literally) thoughts for you. Do you plan to give the HPT one more chance before you call? Good luck!

Hey ladies thanks so much for all the love and support. I went for my 2nd beta and it went from 229 to 501. Im so happy. My next beta is Sat so I hope it keeps going up.

Jandc: Im so sorry to hear about that. Please dont give up because it will happen. God has a plan for everyone so keep trying. It is emotionally and financially draining and more. We are all hear to support you. You will be in my prayers.

dtao: GL with your beta results.

Ladies hope everyone is doing ok and hanging in there. Keep the PMA

Morning ladies,

Dtao I really pray you get your BFP and that test wasnt playing tricks, my 1st test had a faint line so please god yours was late implantation.

jandc33 So sorry its a bfn sending you a big ((((hug)))). I totally understand your devastation but i hope you will recover and try again, i didnt get my 1st bfp till my 5th attempt i know thats not much help to you at the mo. but please have faith xxxxx

Cheryl only in the last 3 days i have been getting really tired, i have a half day in work today and i am going home to sleep!!!!

Laura I pray you get your BFP xxxx

Webster - Hopefully it was too early to test esp. since you didnt get a bfp will 10dpt with your son, are you testing again today, i wish you the very best of luck.

Ladybug Excellent 2nd beta!!!! I sooo wish we did betas here i have no idea if my pregnancy (omg its so weird saying that!!) is healthy/viable but i will continue to pray. Thankfully my light spotting only lasted a day, my cramps have eased off and are not as often - then i wonder should i be cramping??? I wont be happy till scan which isnt for another 3 wks!!!! The joys of worrying but i wouldnt have it any other way.

While i was typing i just rang my regular doctor (not fertility) they said they would do a blood test tommorrow and ck my hcg levels, it takes about 4 days here to get result but better than waiting 3 wks.....oh now i am nervous!!!!

Gi - that's great you found a way around the wait... smart!!! That beta # really makes it hit home! Good luck!

ladybug - those numbers sound great, you must be so happy!

So I took another HPT today and BFN. I'm starting to think that's the answer. Trying to convince myself that its not good timing anyway, yadda yadda, yadda. I do get my beta done a day earlier b/c they didn't give me enough PIO (I would run out on Mon, so they said come in Sunday so they have time to order some more, you know IF I'm preg). I guess anything is still possible. Just have to wait another day to POAS.

Hi all,
BFN for me today :( I'm disappointed but I did poas this morning so I was pretty much not surprised... The last couple days I felt sort of too normal where I was thinking maybe this would be the result. But I will never ever complain because I have my ds and I couldn't feel more blessed or lucky to have him. I wish you all the best and I hope lots of bfp are to come for everyone!!!! I will keep checking in.

ladybug- Glad you had a great 2nd beta- that's awesome!! Hope all continues well!

gi- That is so nice of your doc to check your beta! I'm sure it will be nice and high- let us know! Good luck!!!

dtao- I hope you got great results today.

Take care all, Laura

My beta was positive! It was low at 21, but I think my clinic tests early. That was a 8dp3dt number. I don't know... does that sound right to you guys? Tomorrow I go back for bw.

But I feel bad for you ladies who had negative results. =( I really don't even know what to say, except, I would probably be sad and angry seeing someone else get a positive.

You are indeed a mom-to-be!

Second beta = GOOD. (see my sig!)
I guess this means I am one week pregnant? Or two weeks pregnant? Either way, still pretty early.

Hey ladies,

Webster: Dont lose hope, Keep the PMA, GL Mon, Im praying for you.

Laura: Im so sorry to hear that. You have your DS so you know its possible and your time is coming soon so dont give up and jump right back into it. You will get another miracle.

Dtao: Congrats you are definately pregnant. My RE says anything over 5 is good so no worries. And plus you did check it early. Go to the website www.ivf.ca/duedate and then you put in your egg retrieval day and it tells you how far along you are. It told me im 5 wks today. So I hope that helps.

Gi: I know you cant wait until your u/s. Try and keep busy and the time will fly. Praying all goes well for you.

AFM: I had my 3rd beta today and the nurse called and said it is 2150, so thats good. Thank God. Im like on pins and needles. So she told me to call Mon and set up my 1st baby u/s for late next wk maybe Thurs or Fri. i cant wait.

Mine said 4 weeks 1 day. How confusing... the age of the fetus starts from the start of your last period or something. Seems to me that they should count from the day of ovulation instead.
