Beta Drawn

Beta has been drawn for IVF#4... and now I wait.

For those of you playing at home, I haven't had many symptoms at all with the exception of bloat.  And yesterday's bloat was by far the worst...I could barely even bend at the waist it was so bad.  But it's gone down today.  I feel some slight tightening in my lower abdomen and I'm dealing with some constipation today, but that's really it.  

I won't get the call until sometime after 3:30 today, so I need to keep myself busy at work so I don't drive myself crazy!

    Yeah, normally I would have POAS, but I have to work today and if I POAS and it was BFN, I wouldn't be very productive at all.

    Thanks ladies!
