  That sucks!  Is there a lab closer to you that they would let you go to?  Thats what I did.  I knew it was going to be negative so instead of driving the hour out of my way, paying the copay since I would be "in the office", I just want to a lab near my work.  I didn't get the results same day but I knew what they would be so I didn't care.  Saved me the driving and the copay.  Hope you you have a good weekend!

  This!  Sorry about the BFN -- having to get blood drawn is like adding insult to injury.
  

  Severe MFI. Me: supposedly all clear but eggs showed vacuoles.

  IVF #1 January 2012, ER Jan 14th: 34R, 27M, 23F. Day 3: 18 embies still strong. Day 5: zero "good," one "fair," the rest "poor." Transferred 3. None made it to blast or to freeze. Jan 28: BFN.

  Lucky IVF #2: Transferred two beautiful day three embies on St. Patrick's Day. BFP on HPT 7dp3dt. Beta 1 (14dpER)=106; Beta 2 (16dpER)=140; Beta 3 (19dpER)=264! First u/s 4.17.

  My RE makes you go in no matter what as well.  I was so annoyed last cycle and I only had to walk 20 minutes out of the way to get there (although it was very cold) and then pay the $25 copay.  It definitely adds insult to injury.

  Unfortunately there is no lab closer . I said I really didn't want to come in, but the nurse said they have to do it to rule out an ectopic. Oh well. At least it's over now! Thanks for the support!!

  I know my RE still does it to absolutely make sure it's neg before starting me on meds again.  Although, if AF shows up before beta day, they usually just make it part of my baseline b/w.
  

  After 5 TI Clomid cycles, 5 IUIs, and 2 IVFs we finally got our BFP!
  Beta#1 (12dp3dt)= 353, Beta#2 (15dp3dt)= 1466, Beta#3 (22dp3dt)= 14,139, First u/s: TWINS!!
  After 10 weeks of bedrest, our two little ladies joined us at 28w6d

  That seems a little ridiculous. So sorry that not only did you get a BFP but you have to go get stuck with needles on top of it.
