Pregnant after IF

Did you POAS after a single embryo transfer? How many days after ET did you get a BFP?

I can never wait until my hcg blood test and ALWAYS POAS! I think the earliest I got a BFP was 5dp5dt, but that was with a twin pregnancy (and became a m/c). I know most people will say it takes a week after transfer, but I always like to see the ranges of when that 2nd line shows up! We only have 1 embryo remaining...

I know that my embryo may not even survive thaw for tomorrow's transfer, but it is so hard to not get your hopes up!

Re: Did you POAS after a single embryo transfer? How many days after ET did you get a BFP?

  • I POAS after FET of two 5d embryos. POAS first time at 3d and BFN. Next time was 7d (night before my beta) and got a BFP. My beta the next morning was 300+

  • I did a fresh cycle rather than a frozen, but it was a single. I got a super faint line the evening of 5dp5dt but then realized the test was SUPER expired. I tested again the next morning at 6dp and got a faint line (but not a squinter) on FRER. I did not get a line on my wondfos those days. Good luck - I hope everything goes well and you will be officially here in just a week!! :)

  • Good luck with your transfer! Try not to worry about the thaw process. We only had one frozen embryo and I was terrified it wouldn't thaw. But all was fine and now I'm 25 weeks pregnant. And yes, I tested late in the day at 5days post 6 day transfer. I got a super light line that day, and tested again on day 7 and it was darker. But I do know of others who tested negative up to beta day who still ended up pregnant.

  • @mmhopeful I am sorry about your ectopic.

     I like to know and get beta's asap. I had a chemical pregnancy and a miscarriage in the past. I always want to know asap if the beta isn't rising appropriately or something doesn't look right. With my chemical pregnancy, my RE was hopeful, but I knew that my betas were too low and that really helped me through the 6 blood draws!
