    @apex: congrats!
    As for me.. I've poas twice and both came back negative. I have my beta Tuesday so I'll know officially then. I'm pretty bummed, frustrated, disappointed, sad... I just don't get it.. Everything seemed to fall into place. Its this last part..implantation.. Just wont stick. I'm dreading the prospect of having to do thus All over again.

    @Leialou: Congratulations lady, those are some good looking blastocysts right there.
    @msmug: For some reason, i still have hope, so i'm holding my breath for you until your beta results tomorrow.

    @Leialou: such an amazing picture! Fingers crossed that those embryos are nestling in tightly for a nice long stay.

    @msmug: so sorry about the BFNs. Perhaps you'll get an unexpected surprise with your beta though.

    @Leialou: That picture is amazing! Those look like some awesome embryos! Glad your transfer went well and crossing my fingers for you that the next week goes quickly! When are your betas?

    I go in for my first beta tomorrow. My office says they won't call me tomorrow - they will wait till Friday after my 2nd beta because they want to see doubling before giving me any news. AGHHH how will I wait till Friday to find out??!!

    I was so zen up until yesterday when I woke up feeling like death warmed over and started to think maybe I'm getting real symptoms and not just progesterone symptoms. So now I'm chomping at the bit to POAS. This morning I peed on an OPK because I wanted to POAS so bad. And the OPK was SUPER positive. Like I've never seen the test line that much darker than the control line before. I KNOW I can't rely on that as an indicator of anything real, but now I'm sort of freaking out. I think I probably need to get some HPTs tonight and take one tomorrow before my beta. Do you think that would be bad? Or maybe I should wait till Thursday.

    Has anyone gotten a positive on an OPK and then gotten a BFP? I'm not sure how (if at all) all the progesterone in my system would affect an OPK so I should probably let this go, but you know I'm going to be googling this all morning, haha!

    @twodoghouse: it's September 11th! I think it's a bit cruel they won't call you tomorrow. Waiting until Friday will be so tough! I would definitely POAS tomorrow. I wish I could give you an answer about using an OPK as an HPT.

  14. spaniellove

    honeydew / 7916 posts

    @twodoghouse: I vote for just using an HPT! I got a positive on an OPK in the cycle after my loss when I still had a small amount of HCG in my system and didn't realize it. So yes it can happen!

  15. twodoghouse

    honeydew / 7230 posts

    Oh girls you're making me freak out. I'm definitely going to have to take a HPT tomorrow!

    @spaniellove: How are you doing honey? Are you going in for more bloodwork or are you just in the wait and see time frame? I've been thinking of you and sending good thoughts your way!

    @Leialou: Your embabies look so good!!! Congrats on getting through the transfer. I really hope you have great news in 2 weeks!!

    @twodoghouse: Since you used an OPK, you might as well POAS! I really hope it's positive!!!!

    So, I'm crazy. We are driving a sick toddler 4 hours for our baseline appointment today. We both have to sign consents and he got sick last night. Can't send him to preschool so he comes with us. It will be my first ultrasound without my husband (we aren't taking the toddler in. He will sit in the car with him and then I will).

    @brownie: Oh my gosh, that sounds crazy! I hope it all goes well and that your little guy starts feeling better. Good luck at your ultrasound too!

    @brownie: oh wow! Do you have to drive 4 hours for every appointment? I hope your lo feels better soon.

  20. brownie

    grapefruit / 4110 posts

    @Leialou: yup every single appointment. It is one of the top ten clinics and recommended by my husbands cf clinic. They sometimes don't take that into account when they schedule us (8 am beta means leaving at 4 am or going the night before).

  21. Mrs. Pickle

    blogger / wonderful cherry / 21628 posts

    @Apex: when do you get your beta results back? I'm curious about your levels!

    @spaniellove: @Leialou: @PointeShoesTutus: Thanks ladies! I cannot even really believe it. Tomorrow and Friday I have betas, so I'm going to be cautiously optimistic until then. After 2.5 years of stark white tests, I am just grateful that for right now, right this second I am pregnant.

    @twodoghouse: So you are 9 dpt today? and @Apex: are you 10 dpt?

    I obviously don't need it yet, but does anyone know a reliable website for gauging beta results, including indications of potential multiples based on the #s?
