Day 5 Transter question

[piapie]

Hi, we used an egg donor and last Saturday was my transfer (day 5) today, Monday, I took a pregnancy test and it's Negative. Is this really true? My official bloodwork is on August 8. It's just really sad and frustrating after all the excitement, preparation and expense. 2 embryo's were transfered. Not sure what to expect and I'm still on bedrest. Please provide your experience/expertise.

Hi Ladies!
I had a blood test this morning at 8a and the nurse called at around 1:30p I told her not to tell me until we have my husband on the phone but he was in a meeting so after 30 minutes of wait, we finally were on a conference call and guess what? I'm pregnant! My HcG is at 95, they will do another blood test in 2 days to see. Yay!!! Thanks for the baby dust and positive thoughts, please keep them coming and sending a lot your way as well ladydi03.

Monday is right around the corner! : )  I have never done a HPT, I always wanted to stay pregnant until I was told otherwise : )  Even on my first round that was BFP, I "knew" I was pregnant, I just knew... and still wouldn't take a hpt... I just waited for the beta.  The nurse was so suprised! haha!  Too bad I m/c'd.  Oh well, on to the next try.  I will most likely not test this time either.  But, this will be my first chance with 2 blasts to transfer... so I am feeling really good about that!

I cannot wait for you to update on Monday!  I have my fingers and toes crossed for you!  And I will send you a mountain sized amount of baby dust!!!! : )

Well you are definitely getting positive thoughts.  Do you feel any symptoms yet?  Did you do a HPT?  I am not sure I will be be able to wait after day 7, though I know I did it last time and was disappointed I did. Got a BFN, and it then upset me and had me pretty upset.  So not sure if I will do it again.  

I am now on day 2 of bed rest.  So just hanging out watching tv today and reading and catching up on whatever can be done from the couch.  Let me know how you are feeling.
Any cramping or feeling tight?  Spotting?  Those are still signs of pregnancy when some feel it is their period coming.

Yes! I too do feel fat. I have been eating a lot. Can't even wear my bra because it hurts my breast. I will endure this to have a positive result :)
I do hope it's them. My beta is on Monday. Positive thoughts please :)

Yes, the progesterone will give you symptoms of pregnancy.  Cruel joke huh? Anyway, this could be your babies implanting, or just symptoms of the meds.  I am going to bet on the embies though!!!!  Hang in there! : )  

When is your beta???

[ladydi03]

Yes, the 2 ww is soooooo difficult.  But hang in there and listen to your body.  Taking the tests too early leave you wondering and questioning.  So do the best you can to stay calm and busy.  I go in today for my transfer and I cooked all day yesterday to just stay away from the "what ifs".  

Keep us posted.

Oh, I am on the vivelle dot patch, every other day, Estrace 3x a day and progesterone oil shots everyday before 9am, all I am feeling is FAT!  I feel like I have gained 10 lbs.  All in my waistline and butt.  Anyone else feel this way from any of these meds?  I am worried they aren't working, because I don't feel much different other that the weight.

THinking great thoughts for you.
