Pregnant after IF

When was your beta after 3dt?

It looks like we are heading into a 3dt.  If so, does that affect when you can go in for your beta? At this point they want me in on a Monday (14dpt) but I'm just wondering if I can talk them into a Saturday (12dpt) blood draw.  I SO SO SO do not want to get bad news at work if it's going to be bad news.

Me: 27 DH: 27

October 2013: Endo erosion/ Clear HSG

March 2014: SA #1/  2%morph, borderline sperm count, decent motility

June 2014: SA#2/  2% morph, low sperm count, worse motility

Plan: "Quick Start IVF"/antagonist protocol with Follistim, Ganirelix, Ovidrel and progesterone suppositories (yay)

High AMH (11) and Low BMI= low doses of everything to prevent OHSS

July 27, 2014: Started Follistim injections for ten days

July 31, 2014: U/S= 20 follicles, 8.5 lining, E2 is good, Ganirelix for 4 days starting 8/2

August 4, 2014: 14 follicles on-track, good lining, Trigger 8/6

August 9, 2014: 9 ICSIed/ 5 embryos; aiming for a 5dt on 8/13

August 13, 2014: 5DT of 1 4BA almost-hatching blastocyst (Please hang in, Little Bug!)

August 14, 2014: We have 3 frosties! Hope they're having fun hanging out together. :)

August 23, 2014: Beta #1: 144 8/23/14: Beta #2: 374 Beta 8/25/14  Beta #3: 6,600 9/3/14

September 9, 2014: Ultrasound #1 115 heartbeats per minute

September 23, 2014: Ultrasound #2 182 heartbeats per minute 

September 26, 2014: Love my OB's office

October 10, 2014: Our baby looks like a baby and is moving all over!  

December 8, 2014: Anatomy scan- It's a girl!

Re: When was your beta after 3dt?

    I was just looking at my blog to jog my memory, my beta was 11dp3dt and then did a 2nd beta 13dp3dt.  Don't quote me though. 

    So are you beta or bust then?

    It was driving me crazy, I needed to test for piece of mind/to keep me occupied.  I tested 6 and 7dp3dt and got negatives, I got my first faint positive 8dp3dt and tested everyday up till beta. 

    I figured I'd rather have an idea of good or bad then to get bad news over the phone wherever I may be.  More time to cope. 

    Good luck!!!

    I tried very hard to wait until my beta, but ended up POAS 8 days afterwards and got a definite second line. My beta was originally scheduled for 13 days post transfer, but they let me come in early 10 days afterwards, and beta was 103. 

    The hard part (ER) is over, so make sure you get plenty of rest and take it easy. Good luck to you!
