Just curious on how many of you POAS prior to your scheduled blood test.
I'm in the 2WW of my 1st IVF cycle and the suspense is nerve racking. The blood test will be on 10/16 (still 8 days of waiting), but contemplating doing the old POAS prior to see what the result might be.
I've never been successful in getting pregnant so I've had a lot of BFNs in my life and just can't decide if it is best to see on my own or wait for the BETA and hear it from the nurse.
Decisions, Desicisions....

Me: 44
- Hashimoto's (under control), DH: 38 - (minor issues)
IUIs: 2 in 2012 ... Both BFN
IVF #1: 10/16/13 ... BFP, however it was not viable and ended in an early loss at 7weeks.
IVF #2: Feb '14 ... Cancelled. Positive beta at baseline appt, became very early loss.
IVF #2: Apr '14 ... Retrieval Only. 2 embryos made it to day 3 freeze & will be batched with IVF #3 for PGD testing.
IVF #3: June '14 ... Retrieval Only. 4 embryos growing, all arrested before day 5. Two from April thawed, but also arrested.
Currently benched while determining how to proceed.

Two Boys! Born January 2015 @36 weeks. Healthy and no NICU! So blessed!
I did trigger with10,000u of HCG and know it takes about 10 days to get out. Tomorrow will be the 10 day mark, so I'm not going to test before then.
I just want to be prepared as well cuz that phone call and my reaction probably should be private to whatever the news is. Plus I really prefer to have my hubby and I involved together on the potential result before any medical staff do. Ya know, kinda like it the fertile world does it Is that so much to ask for? lol.
