First Time IVF - 7dp5dt.... Beta test in 2 Days!

Hi everyone!
First of all, I love reading everyone's stories and genuinely appreciate all the candor. We women sure are brave, aren't we?
I am very new to the site and wanted to throw a post out since I seemingly cannot fall sleep (darn nerves) and thought it might be wise to send salutations. I am currently 7dp5d transfer and go in for my beta hcg blood test on his coming Thursday, the 5th. I'm absolutely petrified to POAS, likely from all those times I have done so in the past and ended up with a negative.
I've gone through an entire gauntlet of emotions and symptoms during this IVF cycle - from sheer glee and excitement to paralyzingly dread...hard on the heart, body and mind. I was hoping to hear from ladies who either are around the same timing as me in their IVF process or who have just gone through it and come up with a BFP. Do you recall how you felt prior to testing?? What were your symptoms right before going in to your test?
I have sore breasts most on sides by armpits, bloating, major cramping the last three days and feel like I need to pee more often, almost feels like something heavy is sitting on my bladder. 12 dpo but no nausea or strong sense of smell amd not a ton of cm?? Help please!! Thanks in advance for your feedback.
Thanks and lots and lots of baby dust to all!
CPD

    I did not POAS, and i am 13dp5dt today. I got a BFP yesterday at the clinic and I was elated to find out I was acually pregnant. I still have no real signs of being pregnant. The only thing I can acually say is I have this pressure in my lower abdomin. Good luck to you on Thursday. I also have a beta test that day to check my levels. I was at 152 yesterday.

    Thanks RasBaby and CONGRATS! You must be so stoked What is a "good" HCG level for your first check-up...do you know? Pretty green as I'm new to all this. Again, I'm so happy for you!

    cpd-- check betabase.info for comparisons of betas between singleton and multiples pregnancies.

    Thanks so you both! I went in for the beta test this AM and now am waiting for the results. Feel like throwing up (not from symptoms) but from nerves. UGH. Here's to crossing fingers!
