wisco I’m so sorry for the BFN. I’m with you on being exhausted by it all. The TWW seems like forever but then I find myself suddenly starting over and there is just no break.

I’m just in the TWW. I’m trying not to test early. I didn’t test the trigger, so I think I’d have to wait until at least Sunday. Monday would be 2 weeks from the trigger.

Thank you jacks! My trigger (Ovidrel) was gone at 10DPO for me. FX so hard for you!

Thank you! A bit darker BFP this morning, so I called the RE. I'm waiting to have a beta drawn now. I've had a tiny bit of brown spotting, and I still feel like my period is coming. I'm so nervous!

Yay!! Congrats! I’m keeping my fingers crossed that the beta comes back great! Beta was only 6. I have no idea how I'm even having + HPTs with a beta of 6. That shouldn't be possible. I'm waiting to hear from the RE's office to see what to do next.

Shit. I’m hoping that you just had late implantation and that your numbers haven’t had time to double and shoot up yet. I’m sorry you’re going through the uncertainty...waiting for those calls from the RE is the worst. Why does this all have to be so hard?!?!
HPTs can turn positive when your beta level is only at a 5... they are super sensitive these days.
We are here for whatever you need, lady. Seriously. Let me know what your RE says.

Thank you wisco. It means a lot! RE's nurse said to keep taking progesterone and will recheck beta on Monday (I'll be out of town until then). She also said this could possibly be a lab error??

Ugh orangehibiscus. I’m sorry for the low beta and still hope that you get some good news on Monday. Thinking of you.

orangehibiscus Oh I'm so sorry for the low beta. Knowing you had multiple follies this time around I hope it's just a case where perhaps one implanted and didn't continue to grow but you've got another growing now. Praying for your peace and for good news Monday.

Thank you obscureference and sunshiney. My line was darker today than yesterday. I know that doesn't necessarily mean anything, but it makes me feel a little better. I'm bringing a digi and FRER with me, but I'm not sure if I'll use them or not though. I'll probably go to Walmart and pick up some of their cheapies since that's what I've been using the last few days.

orangehibiscus - always a strange feeling when they throw around a phrase like "lab error." Mostly, it is relieving that maybe they just did it wrong and you have a healthy little bean growing in there. But then you're like, "Uh, you guys shouldn't be screwing this up...can you screw up other things?" I know that darkening lines aren't supposed to be used as a real tool to analyze rising levels, but I say GO FOR IT. Let it provide you relief! Way better than the alternative! Sending you all the positive thoughts for awesome news on Monday.

It is strange wisco. I'm hoping and praying for a miracle, but trying to prepare myself for the worst. I'm pretty sure I'm going to pick up some Walmart tests tonight and test again tomorrow morning. Thank you! Thanks jacks! I really appreciate it!

jacks I did push out CD 1. It worked great and I have my CD 10 u/s the day I get back from Vegas. Are you planning on testing this weekend? Fingers crossed! wisco no changes to this cycle. Sorry for the BFN ☹ hopefully clomid will do the trick for you! When is your next u/s? sunshiney hoping for a great SA for you guys! orangehibiscus I’m sorry about the waiting game it really is the worst. Hopefully it was just an error on the labs part. Everything’s crossed for you!

TW Spotting and BFP ment
Well, my spotting has gotten a bit heavier, and there is a little bit of pink in it now. I did get positives this morning on FRER and a digital! Today I'm pregnant, and I love my baby(ies)!
End TW

orangehibiscus Saying a prayer that it's just the early spotting that's normal and happens in about 30% of pregnancies.

Thank you sunshiney! I've also been reading that the progesterone suppositories can irritate the vagina and cervix and can cause spotting/bleeding. I hope that's the cause and that everything is ok.

orangehibiscus Ahh, sending you good vibes! AFM, all negatives so far (ok, I started testing yesterday...). But I also haven’t had any spotting and would normally have expected CD1 today or tomorrow. So, I’m going to pick more tests up and keep on peeing on things until it turns or CD1 shows up.

orangehibiscus oh my goodness yes I forgot you were on those! I had tons of spotting on them too. FX! jacks so excited you're not spotting like usual at this time of your cycle, that sounds really promising! Hope that bfp is just a day away. AFM... Never did this before but I tested on 8DPO and 9DPO (that was this morning) and got Stark white BFNs, not that I didn't spend minutes staring from every angle to see if there was a hint of a line. Hard not to think obsessively about it. Managed to stay busy and distracted most of today, which is a blessing. Probably should have just waited for 10DPO like usual.

The spotting has gotten heavier with more pink now, which is worrying me sunshiney. Did you have spotting like that? Sorry for the BFNs, and I hope it was just too early. FX for you!

orangehibiscus definitely, the longer I was on suppositories, the more irritated my cervix became and I got quite a bit of concerning spotting. Combined with the strangely low beta but darkening HPTs, I honestly have no idea what to think, but I think what you've been thinking... Today I am pregnant and I love my baby... Is a great mental place to be as you wait for answers. If it were me, I'd probably consider getting a digi that estimates weeks which could give you an idea of where your urine numbers at least stand?

I do want to get a week estimator digital, but I will have to go tomorrow when I get home. I'm flying back today. I have another beta tomorrow. I was reading that the closer the progesterone is to the cervix, the more bleeding can occur. I was putting them all the way up to the cervix, but I didn't last night. Hopefully the bleeding will slow down/stop with that change.
