My first round of bloodwork came back okay with an HCG of 60 and normal progesterone. Repeat tomorrow. I’m guessing it’s going to be a long weekend waiting for results on Monday.
Belated entry I’m over here now...CD20 for me today. @Mack2342 my test day falls on Christmas Eve day - I feel your pain. I don’t have much hope for this cycle we only managed to DTD on -2 because DH was super sick the days after. Sigh. Super strong positive opk this month on CD15 too, so disappointed.
Thanks ladies it would be especially since our last loss was a year ago this past Sunday. But I doubt it. @justarius sorry DH was sick and you didn’t have great timing. It only takes once!
I’m in my own kind of TWW over here. Found out three of our eggs fertilized from our IVF cycle, now we wait till Thursday to see how many make it to the day five mark. Then we wait for the biopsy testing results to tell us how many are “normal”. If all goes well we will probably transfer in mid February.
Well it's super exciting coming on and seeing all the good news! December has been a good month for many! That's awesome!!
This TWW is ..easier for me it seems. I know my chances are nil. Found out last month after an ER trip for abdominal pain, that I developed a polyp. Last week, the OB said it essentially makes pregnancy impossible as the polyp acts like an IUD.
So now I have to have surgery. Which won't be until the end of March. And then a 6 week recovery. So we are looking at at least May before we even have a slight chance. Which is depressing. It'll be more than a year after my last MC.
In the mean time, I basically spend more than half the month bleeding.
At least the OB said he would check the patency of my tubes during the surgery. See if anything has changed in the last 9 years. (Obviously something has opened since I've gotten prengant twice).
@chillycanadianI’m sorry you have to wait so long, I find the waiting during this whole process to be so hard! Hopefully it will be just what you need and it won’t be too long after that you get a BFP!
@chillycanadian the waiting is so frustrating. We have such a short window each cycle as it is, then when we have to skip a cycle or two, it just seems so unfair sometimes. Hopefully doc will be able to get a good look around and you'll be pg by Arpil .
AFM, I'm CD28 and was going to poas this morning but just pulled my frer out of my cabinet and it's expired! Ugh. I bought a bunch in the spring, who knew they would expire so quickly! I googled it and it seems expired test could give me a false BFN or a false BFP. I don't want to deal with that headgame so I'm off to buy more and will now test tomorrow. What a rollercoaster
@40momma Not to contribute to the madness but *TW* my positive tests were always darker in the afternoon...*End TW*
@chillycanadian Ugh, I'm so sorry you're benched for so long. Time seems to slow does when you're TTC, so hopefully the first few months go by quickly for you.
FX @40momma! I’m 9 DPO and holding out a couple more days before I take a test. Since I’ve accepted that it’s just not going to happen for us again the TWW is less difficult for me.
@chillycanadian I'm so sorry you have to wait so long! That would be incredibly frustrating. I hope the surgery gets things back where they need to be so you can get pg shortly after.
AFM, I'm 3dpo and already feeling like a crazy person wanting to test. I'm going to hold out until Christmas Eve though. I am, I swear.

Aww thanks for all the support ladies. I really appreciate it! ❤️ A 3 month bench waiting for surgery, and then another 2 months for recovery feels like forever. I'm not getting any younger haha. Your kinds words and encouragement really does help me feel like I can get through it!
AF showed this morning so I'm definitely out. But on the bright side, I was able to take my pms out on that drive by knottie thread. And now I'm going to have a well deserved glass of wine.
Just got the call, all three embryos are in the early stages of dividing (which is good) so they will take a look again tomorrow and see if they can biopsy them then and call me again. Thinking positive thoughts!!
13 DPO and BFN. I didn’t really expect anything else but slightly disappointed. A week before Christmas last year I had a d & c so it would have been a nice surprise this year. Oh well I will wait for AF which I’ve been bitchy today and then move on to WTO.
@Mack2342 BFN are never easy, I’m sorry! Thanks for asking, my dad is doing well! Looks like the transplant will be a week from today. We will be at the hospital with him for a week and it can take up to a year to fully recover. Hoping this is his cure!! AFM they called today and I have two “excellent” grade embryos that they were able to biopsy. Now we wait about two weeks to find out if any are “normal”. So Much Waiting!!
@char245 that’s fantastic news for both things! I hope both embryos come back normal. I’ll be sending you so many positive vibes.
AFM I’m going to put it in a spoiler.
I got a positive on a FRER on Friday and am still cautiously waiting for the line to darken. I’m only 10dpo today so it’s still early. I can’t help but be nervous that it won’t take, but I know that’s not doing me any favors. Anyway, I’ll remain as hopeful as possible and will continue to keep in touch. You ladies have been so amazing and supportive

Congratulations @zuuls_mom! FX this your take home...AFM **TW*** sorry ladies I don’t know how to do spoilers...
BFP today! CD30 so 1 day before my period woulda been due. I’m honestly in shock. And of course my hubby has to be at work on Christmas Eve day so I have to go to my parents and act calm and wait till he gets home to tell him first. I’m Freaking out. So many happy/scared feels!
