I guess I had a bad dream, woke up having a panic attack. The weakness lead me to POAS..bfn. why do we do this to ourselves! I have to keep telling myself, there are so many factors that can give false tests, only a blood test will be true.
My bum is soooo sore. Of the 10 days on PIO, only twice have I had a lump, one being yesterday after increasing my shot from 1 to 1.5 cc. The pain is ridiculous, which contributed to my panic attack. Tell self, breath.

@Sumo2519 If your transfer was just on 5/9, it's probably just too early for you... but alas I have been there myself so I understand the temptation. Hang in there, and sorry about your sore bum!

Hello ladies! I wanted to chime in going through this terrible TWW! I have Hypothalamic amneorrhea and this is my third round of injectables (first I finally triggered!). I used follistim for the first 2 and ended of overstimulating on both of them with a bunch of follicles, but my estrogen never went above 30. I suggested menopur before the start of the third round and they agreed. I stimmed for 14 days on menopur. They started me on 75 units and slowly worked me up to 150. My estrogen finally responded and went to 50 (that was huge for me). I stayed on the same dose and 4 days ago my estrogen went to 200, with a lining of 6 and a lead follicle of 14. I stayed on the 150 units until Wednesday (5/11) when I went in for an ultrasound. Waiting for the call was torture. My doc finally called and told me my estrogen was 600!, my lining was 11, and my lead follicle was 17 and I had 2 smaller ones at 15. I triggered that night (Wednesday 5/11) and BD'd that night, thursday night and friday night according to my doc's instructions, or as she said "homework" lol. I have never done this before, so I am literally going nutso. I am worried that the size of the 3 follicles is too small, but they could have grown until I ovulated. I am doing the progesterone vaginal supps everyday which sucks! haha.
So glad you decided to join us over here @Shopaholic42488! I feel you on the progesterone suppositories, as I'm taking those too. I bought some applicators off amazon though that make putting them in so much easier! I highly recommend. GL on the rest of your TWW!
So sorry to hear about the BFN @LizzieJ13. And sorry about the accidental pregnancy you had to find out about. This all just sucks
@LizzieJ13 i am 12dpiui and that the only reason i wont test until day 14 because i dont know if the trigger is out of my system and i dont wanna get a calse positive and turn to a neg im trying to hold out my beta is 17 ugh
I broke down at tested this morning - BFN (AF expected Wednesday). I'm going to retest tomorrow & Wednesday, but things aren't looking good.
I think it's just too early for you, so don't lose hope! I see that your IUI was on 5/5 so that would only make you 10dpo today. Most of the time the earliest people see positives is on 12dpo and others not until 13 or 14dpo. I'm still holding out hope for you!

@wifeinraleigh28 - FRERs are over 99% accurate 3 days before your expected period. I have a 27 day cycle, so Wednesday is my expected period. I'd like to hold on to hope, but I have to be realistic based on the clinical statistics as opposed to anecdotal evidence.
In laboratory testing, FIRST RESPONSE™ detected the pregnancy hormone levels in 76% of pregnant women, 5 days before their expected period; in 96% of pregnant women, 4 days before their expected period; in >99% of pregnant women, 3 days before their expected period; in >99% of pregnant women, 2 days before their expected period; in >99% of pregnant women, 1 day before their expected period; and in >99% of pregnant women, on the day of their expected period.

@Monica54321Hold on to hope ive read woman not getting a positive for so long then finally a positive ur not until af shows is how i see it some woman dont produce enough hormone right away to show
@Monica54321 HCG levels have to do more with how many days post ovulation you are, rather than how many days until your expected period because when your period comes varies for everyone. For many people, your HCG isn't high enough to turn a test positive until at least 12dpo!

AFM - I POAS today at 5dp5dt... You know when you see a star out of the corner of your eye and then you try to look at and you can't really see it... Well that is what both of my pregnancy tests looked like today. I know what stark white looks like and this isn't that. BUT I'm not celebrating just yet. I want to see the line get darker. I tried to take a pic of it to send to my husband but it's so faint you really have to know where to look to see it. Cautiously optimist.

Hi ladies I usually stay on the TTTC board but I came over to look here. I have a beta scheduled for 5/27. This cycle is clomid+estradiol+ovidrel+progesterone with TI. The only other time I made it to beta testing day I didn't POAS and when I got the BFN call it sort of crushed me and I had to leave work so I didn't cry in front of my administrative assistant...thinking that POAS may help me avoid that but not sure yet. Good luck!!!!!!!!!
TTC since May 2013
Mild PCOS, Compound Heterozygous MTHFR No Folic acid/pharmaceuticals/supplements (too many to list- private message me if interested), IVIL infusion
Welcome @lablover78! I like this board better than T-TTC because it's more active FX for your beta! I've never had a beta so I don't know how I would handle that situation... to POAS or not to POAS?

@tulips29 thinking of you today.
AFM - I POAS today at 5dp5dt... You know when you see a star out of the corner of your eye and then you try to look at and you can't really see it... Well that is what both of my pregnancy tests looked like today. I know what stark white looks like and this isn't that. BUT I'm not celebrating just yet. I want to see the line get darker. I tried to take a pic of it to send to my husband but it's so faint you really have to know where to look to see it. Cautiously optimist.

Married 10/25/2014 / TTC since 05/2015
1st IUI 05/05/16 Letrozole 7.5 mg CD 3-11 + Ovidrel = BFN
2nd cycle on Letrozole 7.5 mg CD 3-11 + TI = BFN
3rd cycle on Letrozole but did our 2nd IUI on 07/01/16. 10 mg CD 3-11 + Ovidrel = BFN
Onto IVF! Started Lupron on 09/24. Added Gonal F and hcg injections 09/26...... Trigger 10/07. EggRetrieval 10/09. Starting PIO, Estrace, and Medrol 10/10/16. Transferred 2 "strong/beautiful" embryos 10/14/16. Beta 10/28/16 = 998 mIU/mL = BFP with one baby, but miscarried at 9w5d.
D&C on 12/06/17 and started taking BCPs 01/10/17 for the next IVF Cycle, which officially began stims on 02/18/17.
Fast Forward: we got 4 fertilized embryos from that cycle. Transferred one fresh, but it did not stick, so we have 3 frozen embryos currently. Went in to the fertility clinic in July to talk about a FET of one of those three frozen embryos, but a new fibroid was discovered, and I was not cleared to do the transfer until I had fibroid removal surgery.
08/11/17 had a mini-laparotomy / myomectomy to remove 6 fibroids, largest sized were the size of golf-balls! Once we were cleared to go about our normal lives (sex!) I got pregnant NATURALLY but it was a chemical pregnancy. The very next month we had another BFP and here we are now with a baby on the way! A TOTAL AND COMPLETE MIRACLE!
