AW: Inconclusive

Normally I would not create a whole post for this, but I know a lot of people are impatient to know.  I tested this morning and while I THOUGHT I saw a second line, I'm not convinced it was really there.  If it was, it was the faintest line I've ever seen.  I'm not generally an early tester so I don't have a lot of experience with the dreaded "line eyes."  I will say that when I was getting BFNs with my IUIs, there was never any doubt that they were BFNs.  So hopefully I was really seeing something.  Either way, I should know more tomorrow.
Married my wife 8/2007 ~ TTC #1 since 7/2011
9 IUIs = 9 BFNs
IVF October 2012: 22 eggs retrieved, 17 fertilized, 5 frozen
ET #1: 1 blast = BFP; Blighted ovum discovered at 7w5d; D&E
FET #1: 1 blast = BFP; Missed m/c discovered at 9w5d; D&E
Karyotyping: normal ~ RPL Testing: normal ~ Hysteroscopy: normal
FET #2: 1 blast transferred 10/25; BFP 10/31!
EDD 7/13/14 ~ Induced at 37w4d due to pre-eclampsia ~ Born on 6/28/14

    PIP??  I love analyzing pee sticks :) It's a hobby.  I do it every morning.  Still waiting for my own blank pee stick so I know the trigger's gone.  Still there 11 days later, it's kind of making me nuts.  I would be happy to focus on someone else's for a while.

    In any case, FX the line gets darker!  And yes, it's still very early.

    I agree that it is too early and you're still in the game! Fingers crossed!

    Not sure what test you used but my original early positives on the FRER were VERY faint squinters and took a few days before I was convinced it was a true positive.... keeping my fingers crossed for you.

    Thanks for the good wishes, everyone! My original plan was to test for the first time tomorrow, and I guess that would have been a better idea. Oh well. Good thing I got a pack of 2!

    @KH826 - yes, 5dp5dt. I was inspired by someone on the IF board who transferred the same day as me and got a BFP yesterday...but she transferred 2.

    @wishiwaspreggo - I considered posting a PIP, but I kind of feel like they are easier to read in person than they are in a picture on the internet, so if I couldn't tell for sure, it didn't seem like the board would be able to tell.

    @mwagner25 - FRER -- I'm a FRER snob, it's the only thing I buy.

    @2MamazinSeattle - pebble.and.string - I love it!!!

    When I saw this, I literally started chanting out loud "Ball and Chain! Ball and Chain"! Then I felt silly... Then I stopped feeling silly because you deserve a bunch of people who are truly in your corner and cheering for you (I just choose to do my cheering out loud.). Here thinking of you kid.

    Well now I can't wait for tomorrow to come!!  FX that there's an even darker line tomorrow!! :-)

    P.S. I sometimes got darker lines at night after waiting 2 to 4 hours to pee :-)  just in case you wanted to test again today ;-)
  • Options
    YAY! Thanks for thinking of us.

    I totally know what you mean about there being no doubt about the absence of a second line on a BFN. So I think that if you had any doubt that there might be a line this morning, there was a line.

    Here's hoping that it gets darker and darker all the way to full term.
    ****loss discussed*****

    We're queer. I'm 33, have severe stage 4 endo, and had both fallopian tubes removed. My love ("Manada" on the boards, 32) was diagnosed with diminished ovarian reserve. We did Partner IVF (my eggs, her uterus). We lost our twins Tavin and Casey at 21 weeks gestation.

    Our IUIs
    with @Manada: IUI# 1-7 (December 2012- September 2013) all BFN. Tried natural, femara, clomid, puregon/follistim, clomid and menopur combo, both the ovidrel and HCG triggers.

    Our IVFs:
    IVF #1 my eggs November/December 2013: Cancelled IVF due to poor response

    IVF #2 my eggs/Manada's uterus January/February 2014
    BCPs and lupron overlap Stimmed: 1/22-2/2: Bravelle and Menopur (dosage ranged from B300 and M150 to B375 and M150 to B300 and M225)
    2/4 retrieved 10 eggs. Endo was much worse than expected. Only 3 eggs fertilized; February 7 transferred two day 3 embryos, froze one. All great condition.
    BFP eve of 6dp3dt; Beta 1 (11dp3dt): 110; Beta 2 (13dp3dt): 175; Beta 3 (15dp3dt): 348; Beta 4 (19dp3dt): 2222; Beta 5 (21dp3dt): 4255
    1st ultrasound (3/6  6w 1d): TWINS!!!! Twin A measuring 6w1d with a heartbeat of 118bpm. Twin B measuring 6w0d with a heartbeat of 113bpm. 

    ***July 18, 2014 we lost our beautiful babies at 21 weeks gestation. They were born too early. Tavin Sara T. and Casey Elizabeth T. are beautiful and precious and we will love them and miss them forever.***

    FET #1 December 2014
    Intralipid infusion on Dec 10. Transfer of 1 day 3 nine-cell embryo into my uterus on Dec. 19. (acupuncture immediately before and after)
    BFP on Dec. 27; Beta 1 Jan 2 (14dp3dt): 665, Beta 2 Jan 4 (16dp3dt): 1859, Beta 3 Jan 6 (18dp3dt): 4449, Beta 4 Jan 10 (22dp3dt): 12,251.
