My 3 days are up, but I'm afraid to test. I'm going to wait until Friday.



Finally tested BFN.

OP here. My progesterone was testing low so our doctor had us test one day earlier today. It was a BFN.

Congrats to 15:59!

I am actively ignoring all news about Kate Middleton. I'm happy for her, but I don't need to hear about it right now!

Saw this while obsessively googling for stuff on the interwebs and thought some of you ladies would appreciate it: http://www.tumblr.com/tagged/2-week-wait

Good luck to everyone out there. Let us know how your beta tests go!

That seems late to me, but what do I know? In a normal 28 day, non-medicated cycle, you'd ovulate about Day 14, and implantation would occur 7-10 days after that, so with a sensitive beta test, you'd be able to tell if you were pregnant as early as Day 24, although it would seem definitively by Day 29 (the day you should start your new cycle). So the day of retrieval replaces your ovulation day, you should still have implantation somewhere 7-10 days after that (regardless of Day 3or Day 5 transfer), so a beta 18 days after transfer is like getting a beta on Day 35 -- which would certainly be accurate, but it seems like a long way to wait, doesn't it?

oh, and I made a list of things I would do if I wasn't pregnant (things to eat, a cleanse I wanted to do, go hiking on a dangerous-if-pregnant kind of trail ,etc.) when my last ivf failed it was really helpful to go to the list and do all those things.

but this one succeeded.


CONGRATS!!

My last cycle I also forced myself to not day dream both the bad news and good news call. I ended up getting my period early so didn't have that terrible wait for the call day but even so I think shutting off the forward thinking really helped. Period came, I shed a few tears and got a hug from my SO and mom (it was Thanksgiving so she was there too) and moved on.
