    Trying to avoid the evil HPT

    I am 11dp3dt and I am supposed to go for my beta on Wed. I am trying so hard to avoid the evil HPT until the morning of my beta, but it is upstairs calling my name I have been feeling crampy yesterday and today and I know that is most likely from all the progesterone that I am on. I think that the wait until Wed may kill me however. have to go in tomorrow to the RE to have E2 levels checked - think I can convince them to draw a beta now?

    Don't do it. Hpt's are EVIL, I say, EVIL!!! So no 'cheating'----just hang in there. (Yes, easily said and not at ALL easily done.)

    Is there something fun you can dedicate yourself to in the next three days? Some you and your dd could enjoy together that might take your mind off everything?

    Wishing you a speedy three days and much joy right around the corner!

    DON'T DO IT!!!! Since you're going in tomorrow any way, beg them to do a beta tomorrow, just to ease your mind. Be prepared that the numbers could be a little low, or they could be just fine- I've seen it both ways, but hopefully they'll let you do one tomorrow.

    Just hang in there. You've waited this long, you can survive a little longer!! I know the waiting is hard, but you can do it!!

    Each day as I watch you struggle I am reminded to find joy in the little things, to stop and smell the flowers, and that some things are more important than material things. Your smile melts my heart, and takes the chronic pain away, if only for a fleeting moment. Thank you for the joy that you bring, my son.
