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).

@skinnycow: I always start testing around 8 dpo if I have cheapies on hand.
AFM, I starting spotted this morning so AF has arrived...on to the next cycle...
Best of luck to you ladies, I'll still check in to cheer you on!

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?

@californiadreams: That was number #4 following a CP. Thank you. Not too discouraged yet!

@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?
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.

@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!

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

@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.

@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.

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.

@LindsayInNY: Congrats!! My first positive test was super light too. I hope yours gets darker this weekend!

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: are you testing again? When do you hear back on your beta? Good luck!
honeydew / 7463 posts
@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!!

@LindsayInNY: Congratulations on your BFP! I can empathize with your nerves. Hope you get some assurance soon - sticky baby dust!
