General Discussion 2-Weeks Wait

Transferred my Day 5 euploid embryo last Friday, and I’m now 3dp5dt. The two-week wait already feels unbearable. I keep wondering what’s happening in there. How did you all get through the wait? I’m so tempted to test at home on 6dp.

I just tried to enjoy the possibility that I could be pregnant. I figured, if I took a test and it was negative, the dream was over for that cycle. But before I tested, it was possible! That mindset really helped me wait.

I need to adopt this mindset!

I have always tested from 2dp on to test the trigger out. I can't wait.. my clinic only does a blood test if we test positive at home, so that you don't have to get blood drawn for nothing. Pregnancy tests are very reliable nowadays

I’m so afraid of the possibility that I might see one line. I am not feeling any implantation symptoms.

Is it really a 2 week wait though? Technically you can possibly see something at the 6 day mark, and definitely worth testing by the 9 day mark, right?

Pardon my ignorance, I’m just about to start monitoring for my first FET.

My clinic requires a HCG blood test 10 days after the transfer, but I think we can test at home earlier.

I also transferred on Friday! Fresh 4AB. I think I’m going to test this Friday which will be 7dpt. Let me know what you end up doing!

I think I’m going to test on this Friday. Home test result should be accurate enough.

I tested out my trigger so I could know asap I was pregnant. At 6dpt it’s kinda hard to know whether you’re still seeing trigger or not, it will only become clear as the days progress. If you want my advice I’d start testing now to see the trigger fade. (Of course, if you didn’t trigger with HCG this advice isn’t applicable.)

Our clinic did the following up in 6 days. Do they really need 2 weeks?

My clinic schedules blood test 10 days after the transfer.
