Update - Having a hard time making it through this 2ww without POAS.  Pretty sure I will cave this weekend.  My beta is scheduled for 12/11.

QOTD - Definitely The Walking Dead!  I didn't start watching it until after my surgery from my last ectopic pg.  I watched season 1 & 2 back-to-back in like a week time frame and finished just as season 3 was about to begin.

Good luck Mrs. Erin (We both have our betas on Tuesday.) 

Update:  I POAS this morning to make sure the Trigger shot was gone and got a BFN so now even though I know its too early I'm a little disappointed.  I have a ton of internet sticks leftover from when we were just TTC so I'm thinking of POAS every day till my Beta. 

I'm still very constipated and nothing seems to be working :( 

 QOTD:  I love the Walking Dead but my favorite current show would be American Horror Story.

Sending supportive vibes to those of us left in the 2ww! I will not POAS prior to beta--I did that last cycle and turned into a crazy lady. I can't believe my clinic is making me wait until 15dp3dt to come in for a beta! I tried to negotiate a sooner date, but was not successful.  Today is 7dp3dt and I have no urge to POAS--only 8 more days to go!  Super Angry

Looks like I'll be locking up this joint...best of luck to all!  

QOTD: I'm cheating and picking two: Revenge and Homeland! They are both just too good to pick one over the other.

Hey everyone!! Keep your head up ladies, almost there!!!  They called with my beta yesterday at 106.  Go in for #2 tomorrow.  Ultrasound will be a week from tomorrow. 

 

QOTD:  Sons of Anarchy is my favorite show.  But we weren't able to watch the last like 5 episodes because of power, and then hotels not having the channel.  So now I have to wait til it comes out on netflix.  BOOOO!!!

I'm struggling with the 2ww too. Most of you ladies are suffering from constapation I still haven't had that. I drink tons of water and lots if fruits and veggies maybe that's helping. I'm 7dp3dt and have had the weirdest feeling in my lower abdomen almost a zapping sensation and it comes and goes no clue what it means and I refuse to google it and freak myself out more lol. I went to Accupuncture yesterday she told me to sit and think about how I would be okay if this didn't work wth??? I think I will POAS and was thinking about sat morning not sure. My beta is 1210 when would it be accurate to POAS? Hope you ladies are doing well and I have everything crossed we all get our BFPs!

QOTD I'm watching the whole real housewives franchise it's something I can watch and not put much thought into.

Mayzie - I've had that same "zapping" sensation.  Not sure when to POAS, on Sat you'll be 12 days post O so it might show up if you took a early response type of test.

WTH was your acu lady thinking?  Jerk!  I went to acu yesterday, too.  I tried to read her face when she took my pulses, but I didn't want to ask her anything.  She just smiled and told me to remain hopeful. If only 'hope' helped implantation!

I have that zapping in my lower abdomen, too.  I remember having it last time, too, unfortunately so I'm trying not to read anything into it either way.

As for testing, Saturday would be the earliest I would test if I were you! GL hun!

Hi there, 4 days left in the 2WW. I work at a hair dressing academy and today is relaxer/perm day so I am locked in my office because the smell is churning my stomach. Other than that not many symptoms, I did have some light spotting, which my RE said is pretty common.
I have to talk myself out of POAS every morning by saying "tomorrow we will POAS" so far that has worked and I have not tested.

*trying not to be offened that I am the only one with out a "good luck" on the list :(

QOTD: I look forward to Two Broke Girls everyweek, it makes me LOL

Good Luck Ladies and hang in there we are almost there!!

Yeah I was pretty bummed yesterday. I've remained so calm and I got this really weird vibe going to see her yesterday. She wouldn't look at me and acted different after my pulse. MH and I talked to her before and said we didn't want to know is she knew something and now I'm analyzing everything from yesterday because she was such a downer that my cycle must have failed. She also told me we may be one of those couples that IVF doesn't work for. She's never acted this way before. I wanted to POAS right after because she made me feel so bad! How are you doing? I'm so jealous of you having no desire to POAS. Still trying to figure out if they scheduled my beta too soon. Let the over analyzing begin lol...

ETA had to add she asked if I was having any dreams? ALL pregnant women have dreams? Really?

Good luck to everyone in the 2ww!  Congrats to all the BFPs and ((hugs)) to those with BFNs.  I am right there with you with everyone delayed.

Of the 7 fertilized, 6 made the criteria to be frozen (3 on day 5 and 3 on day 6- today) which is really exciting and made my day today.  Meet with RE on 12/17 to discuss plan for FET but hoping to be in the Jan. or Feb. group.  Thanks for all your support!

Edit: QOTD: I love scandal, survivor, person of interest, amazing race and any of the Real Housewives.  I watch too much t.v.

Praying for those still in the 2WW! Hugs to those that need them.

#3 beta is tomorrow and I'm cautiously optimistic, I just wish this fear would disappear and I could trust my body (which I don't).

I swear if I get the same phlebotomist as yesterdays, I'm going to go off. My blood draw lady yesterday started my draw off with "Is this baby wanted?" and ended with "why didn't you just adopt one of those unwanted babies in the foster system" statement. This is why I'm scared to leave my sheltered REs office to be released with idiots like that.  The devil in me wanted to come out! Devil

Good luck ladies!

*trying not to be offened that I am the only one with out a "good luck" on the list :(

I am so sorry for that oversight.  I don't know why you didn't have a good luck.  You do now and I have my fingers crossed that this will work for you.

Yeah I was pretty bummed yesterday. I've remained so calm and I got this really weird vibe going to see her yesterday. She wouldn't look at me and acted different after my pulse. MH and I talked to her before and said we didn't want to know is she knew something and now I'm analyzing everything from yesterday because she was such a downer that my cycle must have failed. She also told me we may be one of those couples that IVF doesn't work for. She's never acted this way before. I wanted to POAS right after because she made me feel so bad! How are you doing? I'm so jealous of you having no desire to POAS. Still trying to figure out if they scheduled my beta too soon. Let the over analyzing begin lol... ETA had to add she asked if I was having any dreams? ALL pregnant women have dreams? Really?

I'm all for not blowing glitter and rainbows up someone's a$$, but she could use some training in sensitivity. I'm sorry she made you feel bad---she should keep her hypothesizing silently to herself. 

Don't be jealous--it's not that I don't have a desire to POAS; I just don't desire to see a stark white pee stick.  I've seen enough of those these past few years! I think your beta date sounds perfect--wanna switch?  Smile  I went into "negotiations" with my nurse and told her that waiting 15dp3dt is cruel.  Her explaination was that at that time they like to see the beta >100 at that point. Hmm

Try to hold out for the blood test, if you can.  POAS is not going to change the outcome.

I hear you on the sensitive training. My cycle nurse called to check in and I explained what happened she doesn't believe she could tell this early on and not to let it phase me. I'm going to give you the most patient award for waiting as long as you are on your beta. Did they make you wait that long last time? I hope it's a huge first beta for you. Fx!

Yes, it was the same wait time for the first cycle. I started POAS a week prior and by the time the beta rolled around I was a hot mess. I went AWOL for my beta appointment and they had to beg me to come in. I reeeeally like all the staff at my RE's office, so I told them I would come in if they promised not to call me later with the "I'm sorry honey" message. They whisked me in and out for bloodwork in less than 5 minutes.
