    Took a test this morning because I'm a crazy person. BFN but that's to be expected this early I guess (8 or 9 dpo).

    Guys. I'm shaking. I think I'm 10 or 11 DPO? It is possible I'm pregnant? I don't even know what this is since we needed help getting pregnant with DD... I had one chemical before so I'm trying not to think of that. This was after maybe 3 minutes?

    @LindsayInNY: so exciting - that's positive if it came up quickly for sure! I vote frer and report back

    @bhbee: Can I do that with something other than first morning pee? Like should I hold for a while?

  21. bhbee

    cantaloupe / 6086 posts

    @LindsayInNY: lots of people have good luck with second mu! I'd just hold as long as you can and then go for it

    Tried again at 8am because I had to pee but don't know how diluted it was at this point. It's so so faint. I'm waiting for the RE to call back. I called to see if they would take me for betas for reassurance.



  23. HappyBaker

    @LindsayInNY: Congrats - it's totally there! My FRER was STARK white negative at 10-11 DPO and didn't give a faint line until a few days later, so you are seeing more than I did!

  24. skinnycow

    @LindsayInNY: Definitely positive!

    How long do I wait before calling the RE again? I called at 7:50 and the receptionist was trying to find a nurse but they were all busy. I just want beta blood work. I'm assuming most patient procedures are early morning so how long do I give?

    I tested this morning. 99% sure it was a BFN but if I stare at it long enough I can kinda make myself see a faint shadow. Probably just willing it to appear, though

  27. skinnycow

    @LindsayInNY: I would call back if you haven't heard anything yet but I'm impatient. So it's been about an hour if you're in NY? They probably forgot.

  28. LindsayInNY

    bananas / 9229 posts

    @skinnycow: I'm impatient too. And I feel like anyone whose dealt with IF is as well so they should understand! I just don't want to be a pain if they have actual RE patients having procedures right now.

  29. LindsayInNY

    bananas / 9229 posts

    So RE won't take me since I'm not a patient. OB won't take me until Monday which means bloodwork on Tuesday. So now I'm waiting at my PCP walk-in to get betas and progesterone checked because I'm crazy like that lol.

    Well I didn't test today. After my BFN earlier this week I'm feeling like I'm going to see another. Maybe tomorrow.

    @LindsayInNY: Lurking and just wanted to say congrats! So happy for you! I joined HB back when you were trying for your first so I remember your first journey well.
    I've also gone to my PCP for betas when my OB wouldn't take me (this was pre-IVF). So I totally get that crazy Good luck and keep us posted.

    @bhbee: Of course lol. Testing is still good. No word back from the doctor. Well the word is that the bloodwork company's system is down right now... I'm annoyed but just trying to trust the process here.

    @SweetiePie: Thank you!!
