I am not prone to peddling to false hopes, but I really need to tell you this...
I did a fresh cycle. 8dp2dt - negative, 9dp2dt - negative, 10dp2dt - negative, 11dp2dt - negative, 12dp2dt - negative. The three other times I've been pregnant, I could see that line at 7dpt, so I knew this wasn't good. On 13dp2dt I started bleeding. That's it. AF here. Cancelled Beta.
Then proceeded to go out for a BIG NIGHT with the girls. Drank probably an entire bottle of wine. Hit the gym the next morning -- weights, running, etc. On 14dpt, I went out and had drinks AGAIN. Contacted my doctor yesterday at 15dpt to prepare for next fresh cycle, got husband to pick up injections.
Oddly, my period had stopped after that one day of blood on 13dpt. I can't start injections until I have "full flow." So I said, "Ok, this is ridiculous, stupid f$%ing AF! Where are you?? I want to get STARTED on new cycle! Alright: let's check one more time." Just peed on a stick cursing myself. Threw the stick down in a fury and started plucking my eyebrows. Looked down a couple minutes later...
16dpt.... +++++ KID YOU NOT, ladies! Now, I still don't have blood work, just hpts.
Moral of the story: PLEASE don't 1) give up hope, 2) go binge drinking with friends, or 3) start planning next cycle UNTIL that Beta.
NUTS! I am sharing this because I want you to hear that these stories of "late implanters" are NOT urban myths! They are true! It is true you can be simply TOO EARLY!
