@elisam511 this was my first IVF cycle and I felt absolutely no symptoms during the wait, so I wasn't sure if it even worked. With my IUIs, I felt different symptoms each time and had a gut feeling it worked on my 3rd try. Unfortunately all 3 failed on me. I'm sure this probably doesn't help much, but I would not read into symptoms or signs because they clearly aren't an indicator. Last week I was driving myself crazy thinking that I've had no symptoms so I searched this board for answers and got a very mixed bag of answers. I hope your cycle works and I'll have my fingers crossed tightly for you results!
@yelllow22 hi hi! Beta is exactly a week from today, so exciting!

Good afternoon, ladies! I hope those of you who are out were able to indulge in something that brings you happiness over the weekend. Big hugs to you, @LMart85, @LizzieJ13, @Monica54321and @Hoping4Success!
@Monica54321, your trip sounds great. I hope you enjoy your time away and that the trip provides a welcomed distraction.
I resisted the urge to POAS today. I even opened the package and then returned it to its place under the bathroom sink. Based on my trigger, it's really only 10dpo, so I was afraid of either facing a false negative or a false positive, especially since I didn't test out my trigger, so I wouldn't have known if I could trust it or not.
I only have that one hpt in the house at the moment, so I think I will save it for Wednesday morning. That way, we can be prepared for the beta results a little bit ahead of time.
My fingers are still crossed for all of you still waiting to test. I'll share my fortune from last night as a wish for us all:
@wifeinraleigh28 - Thank you! Glad my beloved spreadsheet is in good hands, lol!
For the fellow IUI-ers & TI-ers out there - remember to be gentle to yourself & not compare yourselves too closely to the IVF-ers in regards to outcomes. They are anywhere from 3-6x more likely to get a BFP from their treatment. I put the "treatment" column in the spreadsheet cause I felt depressed when it seemed like everyone in the April Beta thread I was on was getting BFPs - but then I realized by going back through the thread they were all being treated with IVF. That realization then gave me hope that if IUI doesn't work out, at least there's another treatment available with much higher success rates! Just wanted to share my thoughts as we go into a big week of results

@Monica54321 You make a very good point and this is something we IUI and TI-ers have to keep in mind. My last testing thread after IUI #2 had SO many BFPs that it made me want to move to IVF ASAP. I was tired of the disappointment... didn't even want to do IUI #3. Yet here we are. I still have hope for this IUI, but my hope is a little more directed towards doing IVF next.

Hi. I guess I'll join everyone. My FET was on 5/12 and my pregnancy test is on 5/20. Although I know it's impossible not to be nervous, I'm trying to stay in denial as long as I can. Today is my first day back at work, and I admit that I feel a little odd today. I haven't felt anything since starting the progesterone. I just know that my mental state and what I eat often play a large role in how I feel. I don't want to tell my dh what I'm feeling each day since he'll read into it more or he'll say it's just in my mind. Either way, it's better to lace him out of it until I get the actual results.
@Monica54321 Thanks for keeping up this spreadsheet and enjoy your vacation. Thanks @wifeinraleigh28 for taking it over. I like having the treatment column as in the past when people would get BFPs I would wonder what treatment they had and have to search through the thread. I changed my treatment in the column as I haven't had my IUI yet and we tried on our own since I couldn't get an IUI the first half of May due to my hysteroscopy. Since we technically didn't do TI and did a natural cycle I just put N/A for now. If I get a BFN or AF I will get my IUI probably the last couple days of May. I have one FRER at home and am waiting it out till Wednesday.

@Monica54321 I can take over the spreadsheet when you're gone. Have a nice vacation!!
Me: 34, DH: 38 ~ TTC since 2014
IUI #1-3 (Nov 2015, Feb 2016, May 2016) = BFNs
IVF ER (July 2016) = 7 PGS normal embryos
FET #1 (Sept 2016) = BFP! DD born 5/30/17
FET #2 (April 2019) = BFN
FET #3 (July 2019) = BFP! DS born 3/27/20
@Monica54321, your trip sounds great. I hope you enjoy your time away and that the trip provides a welcomed distraction.
I resisted the urge to POAS today. I even opened the package and then returned it to its place under the bathroom sink. Based on my trigger, it's really only 10dpo, so I was afraid of either facing a false negative or a false positive, especially since I didn't test out my trigger, so I wouldn't have known if I could trust it or not.
I only have that one hpt in the house at the moment, so I think I will save it for Wednesday morning. That way, we can be prepared for the beta results a little bit ahead of time.
My fingers are still crossed for all of you still waiting to test. I'll share my fortune from last night as a wish for us all:

@wifeinraleigh28 - Thank you! Glad my beloved spreadsheet is in good hands, lol!
For the fellow IUI-ers & TI-ers out there - remember to be gentle to yourself & not compare yourselves too closely to the IVF-ers in regards to outcomes. They are anywhere from 3-6x more likely to get a BFP from their treatment. I put the "treatment" column in the spreadsheet cause I felt depressed when it seemed like everyone in the April Beta thread I was on was getting BFPs - but then I realized by going back through the thread they were all being treated with IVF. That realization then gave me hope that if IUI doesn't work out, at least there's another treatment available with much higher success rates! Just wanted to share my thoughts as we go into a big week of results
