Waiting Sucks! 5dp3dt

I do not like this waiting - I just want to know now that this worked. If it didn't, well maybe I can wait a few days longer to get that news, but then again, why continue to stick needles in my butt nightly for no reason.

I am trying to be positive and have faith. Here's my positive line of reasoning - yes, we did only have one embryo make it to blast/freeze. However, that one was not of the best three, and it still made it to blast, so since the best three are in me, there is a good chance that at least one of them will continue to divide and implant - right? That's what I thought!

I go in tomorrow morning to have my progesterone levels checked. Sunday will be one week down - one more to go. Beta scheduled for Sunday Aug. 16. With it being a Sunday, I wonder if I'll get the results that day or not - or if they'll force me to wait another day which would be torture.

I'm just hoping that I start getting some symptoms next week. So far, I really haven't felt much of anything. My stomach does feel a little funny and I have had some slight pains in my side - like when I'm lying down and then stand up - not really cramping, but like a tightening. Today I'm gassy - tmi, I know. But that's about it. I've been looking for implantation spotting - nothing so far.

The one and only time I was pregnant (chemical and it only lasted a week) I knew right away that I was. My boobs hurt and my stomach felt "weird" and I just knew before I even took the HPT. I so hope I start to get those feelings next week. I'm thinking by next Monday symptoms should start if they are going to - that will be 8dp3dt (did I do that right? 8 days past a three day transfer). As far as POAS goes - we'll see. Right now I don't know - I think it depends on how I feel or don't feel next week. I'll keep you posted!

I have never felt any difference with success cycles (3) and unsuccessful ones (too many to count).

I agree, you had the best ones transferred. There are many reasons to be hopeful.

You're right, you've got the 3 best embies inside you, so try to stay positive! The wait killed me too, and I analyzed myself every day for symptoms. I don't think I ever really had any, other than the sore boobs, which I attributed to the estrogen anyway. So don't worry if you don't get distinct symptoms. One week down, one to go! Hang in there!

Sorry I've been AWOL lately, but I agree with Peeveme and BWUB...you have the best 3 embies inside of you. AND your uterus is better than any petri dish!

Thinking of you,

You are doing great during this torture known as the 2ww. FWIW, I have had tests on a Sunday and gotten results back that day. Of course it depends on your clinic/lab, but it is possible!

I have heard symptoms for different pgs can be very different, so try not to worry if you don't have the same ones you noticed with your chemical pg. Good luck!
