Infertility

humor me, should I POAS or not???

Girls, I am going nuts. My beta isn't until Monday, 15dp3dt. They won't move it up (although I may call today and try again).

If you were me, would you POAS? I don't usually, primarily b/c AF has usually shown her nasty face by now. IVF # 1, I was way into AF by now.  I am spotting, have been since Sunday night, mostly brown, but also some pink. Very intermittent. I know it's normal with IVF.

DH thinks I should wait, but he doesn't get how LONG that beta really is from transfer. If I tested tomorrow, it should be accurate right? 12dp3dt?  I could also wait until Sat.

I just have a really big week at work next week, and would have to take Monday off (b/c I'm not working on beta day, if I don't know the verdict ahead of time).

WWYD???

Re: humor me, should I POAS or not???

  • I would test sometime over the weekend so you're prepared for the news on Monday. Of course for this cycle I started testing at 5dp3dt so I'm not exactly the best example! I don't think I got even a faint positive until at least 11dp3dt.

    good luck!!!!!

    Oh HELLS yea! I can't wait, There is no way I could have my fate read to me over the phone.  NO. WAY.

    An HPT will be accurate so why wait for such a protracted beta? If you feel like you can cope tomorrow, do it tomorrow; otherwise wait till Saturday so you can celebrate :)

  • Hi, I would tomorrow, but I like to know things ahead of time.  Did you ever get your answer about the Beta-3 Integrin test...if not, I will fill you in on how my RE had me do mine to get my sample analyzed.
  • hells yeah! I would test tomorrow! If it was a bfn, then I'd test again on sat, and sun... hahaa, I can't wait to see your post!

    GL!!!!!!!!

  • You've been on my mind a lot since our betas are the same day. I'm totally jealous of your symptoms! I'd take spotting over nothing any day.

    And yeah, I'd POAS, without hesitation. I've been POAS since Monday for crying out loud! Still negative 8dp3dt, but I'm only mildly depressed. :-)

  • I would do it Sat, GL!!!!!!
  • I would totally 100% without a doubt POAS!  I'm considering POAS tomorrow and I'll only be 6dp5dt. 
  • I would Saturday as well. It's so BS they are making you wait.
  • I guess I'm the only one who would not POAS.  My betas are 14 days after transfer and it's definately a long wait. I'm just too afraid to see the results in my hand, so I always wait.   

    Good luck, whatever you decide!!

  • I'd be poas every day! I sooo hope this is it for you!  Good luck!
  • Test Test Test! Now run to the bathroom and pee! HAHA! You are 11dp3dt today I would totally be testing!  I think its retarded that they make you wait so long for a beta.

  • OK!!! I think I will wait until Saturday morning.  That gives one more day for AF to show, and if she does I won't waste the test.

    Thanks girls:-)  I will keep you posted!
