POAS

Last night I searched the internet for information regarding night sweats and progesterone and pregnancy. I found nothing regarding PIO injections having a side effect of night sweats. I did however find a couple of spots where very early in pregnancy night sweats were involved and even one place that the girl had done IVF and had had night sweats since transfer day like me, and ended up being pregnant with triplets. So, with this information, I got very inflated and psyched and excited and thus this morning I felt very confident and peed on a stick.

It was negative.

I did it with first morning pee so it was as strong as it gets. Today is Friday and my Beta is on Monday. It makes me feel a lot less confident. I know its not over yet, but I'm feeling very unsure about things now. My sweet Bryan says that it may just be too early to detect it, it could be a late implanter. And it could be, but well, you know. I've been here before. If it is positive, is it going to be a low number again? Like last summer? When it was positive but it was really low...only 38 only to go on and miscarry? I just can't do that again. Please don't make me go through that again Lord.

Flu recovery is continuing. Today the cough seems to be drying up but now its so much less productive that its making it hard to cough until I'm satisfied and I feel all dry up in my nose. I'm using a humidifyer as well but it sure doesn't seem to help much. My fever seems to be completely gone (thank you JESUS). I feel weak still so I stayed in bed all day again. Tomorrow I'll get up and shower FINALLY. I can't wait. I brushed my hair today for the first time in days. I'm here to tell you that dreadlocks couldn't be easier to brush out than my hair was. I am a vision of pure loveliness for my wonderful husband and after my POAS episode this afternoon a joy to be around as well.

Lara,
Big fat hugaroo for you. I hate POAS and all the negatives of every single one I have ever done. I am praying and hoping with you that this is just to early to test. I'll be gone this weekend but checking your blog on Monday on return.
Love coming your way,
Kim

Well, shit. You know me, the Eternal Optimist (for other people, it's all Nancy Negative for myself). Therefore, I'm going to hold out wild hope that we're all in for a big, fat, amazing, happy surprise on Monday.

It simply has to work. I'm willing it to with all of my might.

In the meantime, I'm sending a couple thousand hugs and truckloads of good vibes. xoxo

I hate the sticks too. No matter how you tell yourself it may still be early, the depression sets in.

Here's hoping for a late implanter.
Take care xx

I got a negative First Response on the day of my beta which was 63 and it was a successful pregnancy so I say never trust a negative test, hold out hope until beta.

Oh, I would be nervous too. Yes, there is still hope, but how do you have it after getting a low beta followed by m/c? I knew a lady who had at 14 dpo beta of 19 that never doubled, but had a healthy baby - so it can happen. I had a cycle like yours though and can appreciate where you are at, I think.

I hope you had an ok weekend and I will hold out hope for you. Hang in there.

Location: Tucson, Arizona, United States

We're a military family, married nearly 17 years, and we have 2 sweet yorkies named Rowdy and Poppy who on occasion eat shoes and electrical cords or bring live birds into the house! We're fertility impaired veterans now, having done clomid and timed intercourse, clomid with IUI, four IVFs (2 cancelled for poor response) and now we've moved onto Donor Eggs. We've done one fresh cycle with donor eggs which was a BFN. Now we're moving onto our 15 frozen embies and may one or more of them become our child(ren)!
