[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry, think a lot of these situations are urban myths and just serve to give false hope.  If you're getting a "great beta" at 14 days past a 2 day transfer but tested negative the day of - or even before - then you either aren't using the HPT correctly or you have a defective HPT or you dont actually have a great beta score.  Test or don't test at home, but some of these stories of women who got a BFN 18 days past ovulation on their HPT but get great beta scores are pure BS.  FRER can pick up on 25 iu of HCG ... If it's negative the day of your beta and assuming it's not defective, you're not pregnant.[/quote]

Well, guess what, real life people disprove this.  Sure the test may have been defective, or urine diluted, or there are some women who just don't register on the HPT that early, just as there are some for whom the OPKs don't work.  But It. Still. Has. Happened.  So many of us can't forget the example of the one or two or more that you know.

Sure it's rare, but since I've seen it with people I know, in the despair of a BFN on an HPT, I would be stuck hoping against hope, that the blood test would be different.

And why does it bother people so much when you decide waiting for the blood test is better for you?  I've had people just about go off on me telling me I should "put myself out of my misery" by "just testing".  Insisting they know what will be "best".

Mind your own f@#ing business, by now I know what works best for me in this miserable process.  I do best waiting for the blood test.  Everyone in my support group also waits.

If you want to test early YOU test early.  No one is stopping YOU.  Or arguing that it's best for you, since you say so.[/quote]
