Beta testing June 16-30

sleepyrn

I don't fit into the other beta group, mine is on the 18th so I thought I'd start a thread for those of us who will be finding out our news for the 2nd half of June.

Good luck to all of us!

ADRIANAC1982

My beta is scheduled for 6/20, so ill join you

BlueEyedDreamer

Hi there! Mine is 6/17, so I will be joining you guys.  

ADRIANAC1982

@BlueEyedDreamer and @sleepyrn We need a "19th" to make it a BETA line  

sleepyrn

@ADRIANAC1982 That is father's day.   How fitting for someone to get their beta that day? lol

ADRIANAC1982

@sleepyrn Of course, perfect day! To bad most clinics are not open on weekends 

BlueEyedDreamer

I know there aren't many of us in here yet, but what are you guys thinking about testing early? Any plans to test? Not to test? I can't decide...

ADRIANAC1982

@BlueEyedDreamer No testing for me! Last time I still had HCG in my system at BETA time so I dont want any false hopes! 

sleepyrn

@BlueEyedDreamer part of me wants to test, and part of me doesn't want to know until I know for sure.  Its a struggle.  Of course it's only been 4 days.

Joining in! Had my transfer yesterday and my beta is 6/18! I am going to try not to test until beta- I have no pregnancy tests left so that should help me lol.

Trying to stay busy but my mind is constantly thinking about it!! (As I am sure all of you are!!)

sleepyrn

Welcome. I'm starting to question why my beta is the same day as yours but I transferred Monday.  Ack.  Must not POAS.  

chicandbubbly

LOL @sleepyrn I have no idea!

In case anyone is curious I found this and it is super interesting: https://www.bubblesandbumps.com/what-happens-after-embryo-transfer-day-3-day-5-transfer-calendar/

I copied other groups and set up our own spreadsheet to keep track of everyone. Update or add yourself here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VftdEVHmxlAKIxs8GAkB7M6yfyIcFDfQhRoazMxDGP0/edit?usp=sharing

ADRIANAC1982

Thanks @chicandbubbly looks great!!! 

emgem819

Hi all!  I'm joining the group!  I had my FET on 6/8 and my beta will also be the 18th of June!  So far I've had some bouts of cramping since the FET which I'm thinking are normal but no other signs.  I'm really hoping I can hold out for beta but I've got some FRER tests in the bathroom just in case I can't.

emgem819

@sleepyrn seems like all sorts of clinics have different lengths of when they'll do the first beta.  Mine does two do my next one will be 4 days after the first.  I know some people do 14 days until the first.  Depends on the clinic!

sleepyrn

Thanks @chicandbubbly for the chart.   And @emgem819 I'm just impatient.  I really hope I can hold out until the 18th.  I go in tomorrow for hormone levels and I know its too soon, but I really want to ask them to draw one. lol

JDW0325

Hi! I'm going to join ya'll too
I had my IUI on Saturday the 4th and will be testing Saturday the 18th. FX for everyone!

ADRIANAC1982

Yayyyyyyyy @JDW0325 welcome and FX to you!!! 

We now have 3 ladies on the 18th Excitinggggggggggg especially for right before Fathers day 

sleepyrn

@ADRIANAC1982 DH just realized that last night.  He was like we'll know before father's day? lol

chicandbubbly

I know! Really hope this Father's Day will be my DH's first!!

emgem819

@ADRIANAC1982 actually we have 4 ladies testing on the 18th!  I'm hoping for a 4/4 success rate...fx for that!

chicandbubbly

I have added @emgem819 and @JDW0325 to the spreadsheet!

ADRIANAC1982

RE's nurse just called my progesterone was 21. something, highest its ever been! I have never been over 8.6! Yayyyyyyyy hopefully that helps this time around 

MMD1986

Joining in, my second IUI is scheduled for Wednesday, so I will test on the 29th!

chicandbubbly

Whoops just realized I had the link set to view only. I have now changed it so we can all edit it. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VftdEVHmxlAKIxs8GAkB7M6yfyIcFDfQhRoazMxDGP0/edit?usp=sharing



Only a few more days until many of us are testing!! Good luck ladies.

emgem819

How's everyone feeling?  Anyone symptom spotting?  I'm trying not to but have been having cramps and sore boobs and I'm trying to convince myself it's just the progesterone.  

sleepyrn

@emgem819 The same symptoms as you.  Occasional nausea at smells that don't make me gag usually (rotten trash, nasty cologne).  I'm chalking it up to the progesterone as well.

JDW0325

So I caved and tested early. AF is due Saturday so I was going to test then with Beta on Monday. I had a trigger shot so I know about the false positives. Well, it was positive. And is staying positive. And getting darker and darker.
I keep peeing on all the sticks. Going to beg my doc to get me in tomorrow to confirm! 

I will say-- I was convinced AF was coming. I usually get cramps like a week before. Got them like normal. Only difference this month was my boobs didn't hurt when normally they do. 

MMD1986

Congrats!!!

nuttymask

great link @chicandbubbly ! Thanks for sharing. Have added myself to the sheet. My transfer was yesterday, beta's on June 29. AF is due on June 27. DH's birthday is on June 25, was hoping to give him a birthday gift, let's see if I can resist testing till then.

Good luck to everyone!

chicandbubbly

@emgem819 I have been having a lot of symptoms too- sore boobs, cramps, and nausea. Thanks progesterone! LOL. So hard not to symptom spot.

@JDW0325 Congrats!!! Was it your first IUI?

JDW0325

@chicandbubbly yes ma'am. I'm trying not to get tooooooo excited just in case somehow it is still the trigger shot. The shot was done the 2nd though!

chicandbubbly

@JDW0325 Wow that's awesome! Yes, should be out of your system by 12-14 days!

BlueEyedDreamer

As some of you know from the IVF/FET threat, I tested early and got a positive last Saturday, but it hasn't been getting any darker.

I'm feeling pretty down, but I'm hoping for some kind of miraculous good beta news tomorrow. We probably won't know what's really happening until second beta, though, which won't be until Monday.

MMD1986

Good luck and I hope you get good news!

sleepyrn

I did another HPT (found one more cleaning) and it was negative.  Beta is Saturday but I've pretty much got myself ready for bad news, and trying to tell myself that the FET will be the one to work.  They said I can start the FET cycle as soon as AF shows up (I asked when I talked to my nurse earlier this week), so while I'm holding out a tiny bit of hope for Saturday, I'm thinking I'm pretty much out.

BlueEyedDreamer

@sleepyrn I'm so sorry. Sending hugs to you, my friend. I hope that you can get started with a successful FET cycle ASAP. Keep us posted on Saturday.  

sleepyrn

@BlueEyedDreamer I'm still holding out hope that your lines don't mean anything and your beta is positive. 

I'll update with my results either way Saturday.

JDW0325

@BlueEyedDreamer
Thinking of you! Sending positive vibes your way
