Pregnant after IF

Lurker from IF--question for those who did 5 day transfers

I am currently 9dp5dt and I've been getting negative hpt's. I have been vacillating between dispair and hope. I need to step away from Dr. Google! Just wondering if you POAS at what day did you get a bfp? Am I out if the running? Thanks for indulging me. :-).

  • I got a squinter at 4dp5dt and a definite light line at 5dp5dt.  But negative tests could mean a lower beta rather than a negative one, and that can still turn out just fine.  Sometimes you have a slow starter.  GL!

    Hi Neesey! I didn't POAS after 5dt. Went beta or bust until 14dp5dt. I did have symptoms though: nausea, tenderness... Have you had any?

    A little nausea but nothing major. I haven't been sleeping well so I can't tell what my tiredness is from. Some cramping and slightly tender boobs too. My progesterone was pretty high at 55 so I'm assuming that's responsible for my symptoms. I'll get results tonight. Hoping I get to join you ladies again!

    I only waited until 5 dpt and with twins it was a very faint positive. I've known other ladies to get negative HPTs and positive betas. That's why we're supposed to wait for that beta and not drive ourselves mad in the meantime. ;) FX for you - hope to see you over here soon.

  • I was too scared to POAS! :D  I waited it out for the blood test results.  Everyone thought I was insane and was trying to throw test sticks at me.
  • First of all, good luck!  Hopefully you'll be coming over here :-)

    Second, I'm insane and POAS the night of 3dp6dt.  At the time I didn't see anything, but now that it's dry, there's a super duper squinter with a FRER (yes, I still have all of the sticks I peed on in a row on one of the desks in our office - I'm a nut).  Then I POAS/FRER the next morning at 4dp6dt and had a 'squinter' but it wasn't really a squinter, it was just super duper light but definitely there.  Every day after that it got darker and darker.  My beta was 9dp6dt and at that point I was at 109.

    Also, it depends on which HPT you're using.  I got tons of negatives with the crappy Wondfo ones, even after I had nice strong betas.  I even peed on them and FRERs at the same time out of curiosity a couple times and the lines on them were really really faint or not there and the FRER was clear as day.  If you're using the cheapo ones I wouldn't sweat it at all.

  • I got my first positive at 6dp5dt but like others, we are having twins which I believe drove the early positive.  Don't give up!  It is still early and very dependent on which type of test you are using.  Fingers crossed that you get your positive!
     Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker image
  • Wishing you the best. I hope this is it! I agree it depends on what type of hpt. On the FRER I got a definite line on 6dp5dt. Every pregnancy and person is different though. I've heard many stories of women with negative HPT and positive betas.

    This. I POAS after the beta.
    I'm so sorry my thoughts and prayers are with you.

  • I didn't get a positive POAS until 6dp5dt - all negative up until that point, even that morning.  Then I "felt" different that afternoon and took a digital POAS test, and it was positive!!

    TTC since July 2011
     
    Me(33): normal HSG; diagnosed with mild PCOS

    DH(35): normal SA
     
    *6 cycles no meds, July-Dec. 2011, all BFN
     
    *Clomid for 3 cycles, Jan-March 2011: BFP March 2011
     
    *MC at 6 weeks

    *2 cycles off
     
    *Started TTC again July 2012 with Clomid, 6 cycles from July-Dec. 2012, all BFN
     
    *1 cycle no meds: BFN
     
    *1 cycle Femara: BFN
     
    *1st RE visit March 2013 - first IUI in April 2013 with Femara, Menopur, and Novarel (BFN); second IUI in May 2013, same protocol (BFN); two cycle break;  third IUI in August 2013, same protocol (BFN)

    *1st IVF cycle, October 2013 (Synarel, Menopur (75 iu), and Gonal-F (150 iu)) -- BFP!!  Saw two babies at our 5wk5d u/s on Oct. 28th!  EDD=June 25, 2014

  • I didn't POAS either. I had my beta 7dp5dt and a 20,000 hcg trigger so I was nervous that I would get a false positive and be crushed. I am now 10w2d :) I know it's hard, but just wait.
