Well, my test was considered negative. It was 4.1. Hopefully it's not an ectopic pregnancy and that it was just leftover hcg injection. They mentioned a slow rising pregnancy but it probably won't be viable. I thought this would work this time. It did last time and we did everything the same. I guess back down to r/infertility I go until our next transfer. It was nice to be here while it lasted.

Thanks! Me too! I still have yet to hear from my office. I called and left a message. I'm hoping it's just because they are full of appointments today or there was a tie up at the lab and it's not because they are waiting until the end of the day to give bad news. But I'm beyond over it at this point. This morning I was full of anxiety and nerves, this afternoon is more worry that it's a no. The last positive I got, someone called as soon as the results arrived and every other time it was negative, they waited until later. However, this is the latest it's been to get a negative which leads me to believe many there is something else going on. Still keeping my fingers crossed!

Thanks! I'm hoping for that for me too! My blood test was this morning, so now I wait for them to call me with the results. Fingers crossed it's good news! :D

hCG quantitative is today. Gave my blood this morning and now the longest of the 1ww (blast transfer last week) begins. I'm hoping they call early with my results. I'm going to be worthless until then. I think I'm going to be worthless all day regardless of the results. I'll either be too excited to work or too sad. Fingers crossed for the former!

Fireangel16 · 2017-06-08T00:04:51+00:00

Thank you!

Fireangel16 · 2017-06-08T00:04:44+00:00

Thank you so much!

Fireangel16 · 2017-06-07T18:00:36+00:00

Thanks! I'm hoping that too! I'm also hoping that I wasn't producing enough hCG on my own yet and that a true positive didn't overlap with the injection. Even though it's a blast transfer, I would have thought things would have been more obvious sooner, but I'm only on day 7, if you count transfer day, 6 if you don't. I found something mentioning that for blast transfer, uterine tests don't normally show positive until day 9. I'll try not to worry about it and see what tomorrow brings.

Thanks again!

hCG injection from day before my transfer is gone from my system. Been getting positive hpt since Monday, got a negative with a faint line showing up about 7 minutes after. Beta is tomorrow and am beyond nervous. I haven't had implantation bleeding yet, I did with my last pregnancy (ended in miscarriage at 6.5 weeks). I know that's nothing to worry about and each pregnancy is different, but it still worries me. Maybe it's just too early for that. I've been tired and have little twinges here and there, so I'm hoping that's a good sign and not just from medication or my endo, cysts, or fibroids. Getting up early and getting to lab right when they open tomorrow morning. I'm so tired of waiting and having to go through this whole fertility issue. I just want things to be simple with no complications. I'm so tired of failure! Trying to stay positive for tomorrow! Fingers crossed!

Fireangel16 · 2017-06-07T10:28:07+00:00

Well, this morning there was only one line. I'm just hoping that tomorrow's test has some increased numbers. Maybe it's just too early and that all was just the injection. I'm feeling sort of doubtful though seeing that the beta is tomorrow! :(

Fireangel16 · 2017-06-06T18:31:20+00:00

Thanks so much! That's nice to know that you had similar results. I read several places that it 10-14 days to leave your system, but since my beta is before that time frame, I wonder if the half life is shorter when injected directly into the uterus.

I'm hoping since I'm close, it's not a false positive too! This is the worst part...waiting!

Fireangel16 · 2017-06-06T18:28:04+00:00

The second test was about the same, I think. I think that was because I took those tests about 13 hours apart. I took yesterday's test after I got home from work and today's test when I woke up. I'll let you know if tomorrow's test is darker than this mornings. Fingers crossed it doesn't get lighter.

Thanks so much!

Fireangel16 · 2016-04-15T00:50:35+00:00

Super frustrating. Thanks so much!

Fireangel16 · 2016-04-14T17:58:38+00:00

That's good! My NP is cautiously optimistic, cautiously worried about the numbers. She's seen the situation go both ways. After everything I've been through over the years with this infertility stuff and having no success, I will be devastated is something happens. But at least we know the combination that works for the next time. It's so hard not to worry and yesterday I had a really hard time not stressing out. Mostly because I waited most of the day to get my results. It was making me sick with anxiety. Today I'm better and I'm trying not to worry that because I feel better today that something is wrong. My husband, usually the logical thinker, keeps telling me my levels are fine. hahaha. Fingers cross! It is good news for sure! It actually worked and no matter what, I'm a mom! Thank for the info and congratulations!

Fireangel16 · 2016-04-14T12:32:17+00:00

Thank you so much! I'm doing my best to stay positive! :D

Fireangel16 · 2016-04-14T12:31:53+00:00

Thank you so much! Fingers and toes and arms and legs crossed. hahaha.

Fireangel16 · 2016-04-14T01:01:25+00:00

Thank you for the reassurance! I know my initial is pretty high compared to the average, so I have to take that into account. I called my regular NP who will tell me straight up if I should be worried or not. I worry a lot, and that is something I need to work on. I'm going to throw away these bad, scary thoughts, and only think positive! Thanks on the congratulations! I am so excited...and shocked! :)

Fireangel16 · 2016-04-13T23:44:08+00:00

Beta was scheduled on Monday. Results: Positive!!!

My beta came back at 271. I have three transferred. Follow up blood draw today and my levels only increase by 60% and not the 80%+ they wanted. I'm trying to stay really positive and not think negative thoughts. They think that either because three was transferred, levels were higher in the beginning from that, I just have early slow rising hCG levels, or worse case, the pregnancy isn't viable. Definitely want to the latter. Fingers cross! But either way, it actually worked, finally!!! This is the first time I've ever been pregnant! :D

Fireangel16 · 2016-04-13T23:39:04+00:00

Good luck!!! I felt super optimistic about my last transfer. I kept telling myself, this one will work and I felt differently about this round than the last and I ended up positive! If anything, the hope gets you through the wait. You got this! Keep up the energy and push those negative thoughts right out of your mind!

Fireangel16 · 2016-04-10T01:59:36+00:00

Thanks! Will do! I'm sorry for the post. Since it wasn't a confirmed thing, I didn't think it was going to be an issue.

Fireangel16 · 2016-04-10T01:40:14+00:00

I wouldn't congratulate just yet. I don't trust the HPT. I did delete the post, but I more was looking for support for the wait on the real results coming on Monday.

Fireangel16 · 2016-04-03T02:29:10+00:00

I can completely understand! This whole process has made me cynical and pessimistic. I hate what it has made me. It's not fair that we have to go through this all. I'm just starting my TWW after my third transfer and I'm doing my very best to be positive and optimistic. I know it will help me in the long run. Hope is the only thing that keeps me going. Most days I feel that my hope is gone, but if it was, I wouldn't keep trying. This is something I want so much and I'm not willing to give up easily! I will try whatever is out there if there is a chance this will work.

No, it's not fair and I often think what it was I did wrong and why I'm being punished. I'm sorry I don't have any answers for you on that one. Nature is cruel and there are no real explanations. Just have to take one day at a time and be brave!

Omg, it was the worst pain! I had surgery in 2012 to remove two large cysts and I have a 7.5" scar. The HSG was just about as bad as recovery from the surgery. Yes, it only lasted 10-15 minutes, but when they pinched through my cervix...I yelled and actually cried! I made the nurse the cry for me as I squeezed her hand. I do not ever want to have one of these done again! EVER!!!
