Barbara - I have posted to you on the Aussie and Kiwi thread, so sorry to hear Donna's sad news.
This 2WW is driving me CRAZY!!!!! I have been ok until today, but today lost it, the knicker checking (I'm sure everyone at works thinks I have some horrid urinary tract infection...), the staring out the window, the counting the seconds until Friday, which is still FOUR whole sleeps away...
I ended up calling the clinic to see what would happen if we did a HPT - I would be devestated to have a false positive - the nurse said that we can do one on Thursday, Wednesday at the earliest, to make sure the HCG has passed out of the system...so made myself walk past the chemist today without buying the test, because I know that once it was in the house it would be tooooo tempting
Hang in there everyone, looks like June 6 and June 9 are going to be big days!!
Take care
Jo

Sorry, I meant to post on this thread earlier today and got confused.
Unfortunately I was a bit premature in my excitement yesterday as my reading is only a low positive (17) when they expect it to be at least 25 by this stage to count as a proper positive. I've been told it could go either way, but I've had this happen before and its only ever gone down (although in the past I've always been bleeding by this stage, but guess that the absence of bleeding may be due to the massive dosages of getone that DH has been injecting). I have now been told I have to go back at 8 am tomorrow (8AM!) to have another HCG test and also some sort of killer cells blood test.
I'm trying to keep some PMA but everything from my previous experience (6 previous cycles, 2 previous low positives that haven't worked out) tells me that realistically it is all over for us. Still, at least I only need to wait til tomorrow for a bit more news. I'll keep you posted.
Try and stay positive - keeping willing that little one to cling on
Let us know about the NK cells test - I'm now having treatment with all the relevant drugs as I tested positive so if you need any information let me know.
I don't really know how you tell the difference between AF and spotting, but I've heard that people can bleed quite heavily and still be pregnant. I think there are people on here that it has happened to. The only time I ever got pregnant naturally, I bled so heavily (much more than my normal AF, which is quite light) that I assumed it was a miscarriage and then found I was still pregnant. Turned out to be ectopic unfortunately, but I don't know if that made a difference.
I don't want to give you false hope, though and it is possible that it's all over and if that's the case then I'm really really sorry to hear it. I hope you can get to a stage where you've got some of the upset out of your system and can talk to your RE as he will be able to give you a much better idea.
Thinking of you. Take care of yourself
