Awww Mamaluv you poor thing. Huge hugs. That was really wrong of that doctor. I honestly wouldn't go back to see her.

So I'm 4-5 dpo and trying really hard not to symptom spot but I might as well write them down. Feeling suuuuper tired, constant drippy and stuffy nose, slight soreness in my breasts and frequent urination. I'm not getting excited yet though. I feel like since the opk became more glaringly + after our attempt that we might have Dtd too early.

Drs can be so heartless at times! When I was bleeding and had problems with DS6 pregnancy the dr told me I would miscarry but it didn't matter anyway as we already had 5 kids!!

When I got my BFP in March my drs test was negative too so maybe they aren't as sensitive as some HPT tests!

Can you see another dr maybe who will do bloods for you?

How heartless for her to start in already on m/c possibilities! I would not be going back to see her!

I see 2 lines on every single one of those tests! But FRER are early detection and the doc offices usually use ones similar to First Signal (around here anyway) and so of course such faint lines wouldn't show on those yet. Please do not be disheartened, we all see those positive tests!

Omg, what a terrible doctor! !!! I see the lines on all three tests! Maybe try taking another test tomorrow with second morning urine to see if it's darker. And I agree that the tests at the doctors offices aren't that sensitive. I don't usually go in there to confirm till after my period is due

THank you everyone. I just left the doctor and her test showed negative. I don't know if the fact that it's 12noon and not my first urine that makes the difference. I haven't technically missed my period yet either (due the 25th or 26th)....Anyhow, she said my lines probably don't mean anything. She also refused to give me a blood test!! I know my body and after three kids I know the drill. I've had sickness, unusual bloating, cramps, headache EXTREME fatigue.... I'm even more confused now. To make it all
worse she started talking to me at length about miscarriages!!!! Who wants to hear that?! She had this sneer the whole time like I was nuts. Finally as I'm leaving I go on the elevator to see this cute little lady with her pink and white dress with a perfect baby bump. I got in my car and burst into tears. I'm so sad. :,-(

Your doctor, my dear, is an idiot. Why the heck would she be talking about miscarriage with you if she didn't think you were pregnant?! You're super early. I'm sure FRER is more sensitive than theirs. I know it's hard, but try to relax. I can't believe she refused a blood test. That is ridiculous. I'd find another doctor to talk to.
Hugs,
Angie

I agree mamaluv your dr is horrible! Hugs.

Bfn for me today at 10 DPO and honestly, it doesn't worry me if it stays that way. I am completely content with one happy healthy little boy.

You watch, I'll go and get a BFP now that I've said that lol

Mamaluv - I see those lines too! What an awful dr! Hope you don't get to see her anymore.

Abifasc - Fx for you! Hope those symptoms turn into two lines in a few days!

I am 1 dpo and trying to ignore the fact that I am in the 2ww. Last cycles 2ww was terrible and so stressful, I have to find a way to handle it better.

Good luck to everyone in the TWW! I'm either 4 or 5dpo. I did have a hot flash tonight, which was my very first symptom with both pregnancies. So that's exciting! Feeling crampy right now too.

DH and I are going to be spending a night together in Long Beach tomorrow night. We won a night's stay at a hotel at DS1's fundraiser last year and it expires next week so we couldn't let it go to waste! My mom came up yesterday to watch the kids. We're getting a couples massage and going out to dinner and hopefully having a nice 1 hour gondola ride if we can get a reservation in time. Today was DS2's 5th birthday and next Saturday is his party so I've been SUPER busy. Looking to relax for the next 2 days!!!!

I was reading on an IVF site last night and the doctors on there recommended exercising no more than 4 days a week for 90 minutes max during the TWW and greatly limiting caffeine from all sources since it constricts the blood vessels, so I'm going to follow that advice even though I'm not an IVF patient. So no more double shot of espresso for the next week for me!

Sounds promising!! Look forward to BFP news from you soon! Enjoy that break and happy birthday to your DS
