@madasm0530, @Christianner, @JAH87 - sorry this wasn't your cycle. Do as many of the things you're not supposed to do if pregnant and try to enjoy. A run and a glass of wine were always involved in my negative beta days.

So sorry @JAH87. Do you know what your plan is going forward?
AF showed up on her own. I've never been so excited to see her. I start iui #2. Start Femara on Sunday, u/s on 8/30 @ 9:30am and will find out when to do trigger shot and iui.
So I gave in and POAS just a bit ago because I started spotting and cramping. AF is expected to make an appearance any day now. My beta is scheduled for tomorrow and not sure if they will make me wait until monday to give me my results so I went ahead and tested. Im so confused as to whether I'm pregnant or not only because I've never had a positive outcome. Thoughts? Just a little history, Ive done 8 IUI's and 4 IVF's and all were BFN.
*lurking* @Steff_99 That's about what my FRER looked like at 9dpt! I followed up with a digital test as well (I believe digital turns positive with HCG of 50 & FRER is more sensitive @ 25) Congrats!!

Good luck @Steff_99 for tomorrow! Your hpt looks really good!!
*TW* Yesterday I woke up at 2AM and wasn't able to fall back asleep, so I decided to POAS and I got a faint line!! I'm 5dp5dt, I think I'm gonna test every day hoping that line gets darker! We are cautionously optimistic! Hard to believe it yet!
Hi, all! I just added my info to the spreadsheet. The beta for my FET is on Friday 8/26. I'm driving myself crazy overanalyzing every phantom symptom in the meantime. But after my last experience (*tw - c/p), I am NOT testing early. Five more days - I hope I can make it!!!
Congrats to all the BFPs so far this month (so many!!!), and best wishes to those who are trying to regroup after a BFN.

@MarlyHC I barely got the call at 7:30 pm after emailing and leaving numerous voicemails. Of course their systems would be down the day I have my beta testing. But my beta came back at 164. Im still in shock!
@AandDM2014 How did I miss that your sono came back with Triplets? Are they sure about that? TW during my pregnancy with the twins my first sono at 6 weeks showed triplets but my next sono at 9 weeks there was only the 2. They don't know if it was consumed or if we just saw a reflection of baby b's heartbeat. My first beta was 659 then the second at 1635.
AFM looks like I stop BCP this week and start the same o same o schedule for an FET on Sept 16th. We will be defrosting 2 early and observing them based on how they develop we will decide if one goes back to the freezer or if we will transfer 2.

@thucks, I don't think I shared over here. But yes, they are sure it was 3. They were all different sizes and all had different heart rates. It is possible that the slower smaller one will stop growing on it's own, and it'll go down to twins. My beta rose by almost 7,000 over the course of 5 days. Best of luck on your upcoming cycle!

Anyone have light spotting and cramping after your positive beta? I think I'm feaking myself out. AF was supposed to make an appearance yesterday. Thanks!
@AandDM2014 Thanks so much! I was so happy to hear a nice high number, put my mind at ease a little. Now just a few more days to see what happens at #2.
First u/s this morning showed a healthy baby!! Measuring on track and heartbeat strong... even got to hear it!!! So amazing. DH and I both shed a tear or two. I can't wait to see my LO again in two weeks!

@steff_99 I've been just reading everyone's updates since moving over to the preg after if board. The doubling time is 48-72 hrs actually. As long as it goes up 60% in the first 48hrs you're good. Mine was at a 62% increase the first 48 hrs, then my 3rd beta a week after the first jumped up and had a doubling time of 1.8 days. Try not to stress bc it's going up just fine.
