Are you going to test before your beta, an if so, when? My beta isn't scheduled until next Monday the 14th, and I was trying to hold out until Thursday (7dp5dt) but I may cave and test tomorrow (5dp5dt). I'm very optimistic about this cycle, which could be very bad if I get a BFN!

Ugh I don't know yet. I want to because my beta is scheduled for the 16th (a wednesday), so I'd get the phone call from the dr/nurse while I'm at work. Not really the best place to get potential bad news ya know? I had a horrible weekend (ended up in the ER) with lots of abdominal pain, NOT uterine pain though. Lots of test later showed everything looked normal. No enlarged ovaries, no fluid in the uterus, no twisted ovaries. So I feel totally depressed and feel like that this was a sign that this is a big fat bust. 

IF I do test, I prob will wait until this weekend. I can't take anymore bad news at this point.

Oh no! Are you feeling better now? I will cross my fingers that abdominal pains were completely unrelated to what's going on in your ute. You never know, you may not be out yet. But I understand the feelings of depression, try to do things to keep your mind off all this (I know easier said than done).

Thanks gmc! Yes, I'm feeling much better now. But I cannot fathom how the embryo could have successfully implanted over the weekend with the pain i was in. Oh well, Cycle 1 down the drain.

So are you going to test? I feel like I should convince you to wait, but the other part of me is like TEST TEST TEST

My office is an hour away, but I work from home most days...this week I have to go into the office on Wed, so that's definitely out. I got my BFP with DD at 12dpIUI, but that was the first time I tested. I got a very faint BFP at 10dpIUI with my m/c earlier this year and that was with a very low beta. I want to wait until tomorrow (essentially 10dpo), and am fighting testing later today. My problem is that I have too many cheapies in my bathroom closet that I can easily waste, but I don't want the stress of a negative knowing it could turn into a positive! Decisions, decisions!
