    OK ladies, I need you to keep me in line. I have some HPTs at home from last time and I am getting very tempted to use one soon! I know I should wait for the BT. I am starting to go a bit crazy I think in this last week. I keep looking for signs ...I'm even feeling my breasts to see if they are getting tender! (goodness knows how that looks to anyone who might see me).
    I just want to know what's happening in there!!..please lil one, just be getting nice and comfy

    welcome farmgirl....good luck! I hope you have success this go

    Possums - try to wait (although I didn't)...but if you do use the HPT, you have to tell yourself that it's not a definitive test - don't get too disappointed if it is a BFN. I've done some more reading (I don't get much done at work these days), and it seems like HPTs really shouldn't be used until the day or 2 before your BT anyway...meaning if you were cycling naturally and thought you may be pregnant, you'd be testing no earlier than a couple days before your expected AF, which should end up being around the time of your BT. Oh - and I studied my breasts too - looking for veins and darker nipples - I was a complete nut.

    BTW, it seems like I did have a chemical pregnancy - but I had another BT today and my number was 2 which was low enough to start a new cycle today...so I'm back on the nasal spray and gonalF. I also learned that their concern wasn't that I could have been preg with a 4 but that it could have been ectopic and if it had gone up that worry would have increased.

    Just thought I'd pop in and say Hi... I had a day 3 embryo transferred today, first ivf cycle.

    Best of luck to everyone else in the tww. Look forward to passing the time with you all!
