We did our transfer 5 din back after ivf and honestly the wait is killing me. Doc told a date but mann nahi maan raha, i keep wanting to test early. Anyone who went through ivf, how long did u actually wait?
Try to keep your mind busy and rest well during this two-week wait. Testing too early only brings unnecessary stress, so wait for day 12 at least. Wishing u all the positive news very soon.
I totally understand how nerve-wracking this waiting period is for u. Your heart must be racing every day hoping for good news. Try to wait at least 10 to 12 days so the hormone levels are high enough to detect.
My doctor specifically told me that testing before 10-12 days post-transfer can be highly inaccurate. The medications we take can mess with the home kit results. It is best to wait for the scheduled blood test at your clinic on day 14.
My team at the fertility clinic was very strict about this. They told me not to do home tests at all and only come in for the beta hCG blood test on the exact date they scheduled. I'd highly recommend calling your hospital coordinator to confirm their specific protocol.
After my transfer, those 10 days felt like a whole year. I felt so anxious every morning, but I waited till day 12 for the home test because I didn't want a false negative. Seeing that double line made me cry like a baby.
The wait is actual torture, yaar! But don't test too early, else the trigger shot can give a false positive and create confusion. Actually, wait for 12-14 days for the official beta hCG blood test as advised by clinic.
