TTC after 35

Been POAS and negative at 9dp3dt

Is there any hope for this cycle ladies?  I am starting to get really bummed, as I was thinking that my BFP is coming-and that stupid second line just won't appear on my FRER.  I googled around and with my ER/ET date-implantation should have been complete on 12-26.  I gave up on the strips because I didn't know if I was reading them right-and they looked +, but then I took a digi and got a BFN.  I'm really feeling bummed-and need others to please tell me that it's still early.   My Beta isn't until Friday, and this has been the longest 2ww ever.  Beginning to process that this IS the end of the road for us and I might not get the happy ending that I was hoping for.  DE are not an option because we cann't afford it.  What can I do from here?  I don't even qualify for the Child Free Not by choice board Sad

Re: Been POAS and negative at 9dp3dt

  • I'm no expert in IVF, but I would say that they schedule the betas on specific days for a reason.I wouldn't lose hope until either AF shows, or they tell you its a BFP, especially if this is your last shot.

    Fingers crossed for you sweetie!

  • I'm no expert and don't have any advice, but I wanted to wish you lots of luck in the next few days.  I know this whole process has been hard, with the waiting the hardest part  (just like Tom Petty says).  Hang in there!

    SIGGY WARNING

    Please forgive me for posting, but I wanted to respond to your post.  When I got my positive, it was at 15 dpo.  At 17 dpo, I still got a negative on the digital, even with FMU.  At 5 weeks, when I was at the doctor's office, their test said negative. My betas were too low for the digi to pick up.  Keep on hoping. Sometimes it's the only thing we've got. Best of luck to you, as always.

    No need to apologize for posting-I consider our graduates to be part of our group........just wish it wasn't so hard to join you all!

  • 9dp3dt is only 12 dpo and still early for a +HPT. If they implanted yesterday, it's only been one day - not long enough for the hormone to appear in your urine.  Doesn't it normally take 2-3 days after implantation for the urine to pick up the hormone?  Hang in there - you are not done yet.

    Did some googling on how soon after implantation you can get a BFP when you POAS.  2-3 days is right on the money.  Fingers crossed-and prayers out that there's still hope for me.  Very discouraging though when I read about others with their BFP at 9dp3dt.  This waiting is sucking the energy out of me and I just want to POAS every time I go to bathroom, hoping for the slightest second line!

  • Yep, another BFNSad  When I did get my BFP in October the only day I tested positive was the day of my Beta.  I think that I would prefer a BFN to a c/p again.  Today is 10dp3dt (13dpo), not looking good.  But, I wouldn't say that a + Beta is out of the question-time will tell.
