OK, I can tell already this 2ww is going to drive me insane. I woke up this morning and took a HPT (3dp5dt). Not because I wanted to see if it was positive - I was actually hoping for a negative for once. My thinking was that if I got a negative, when I test next week, if it's positive, it will be a REAL positive. I know myself and I know I won't be able to wait until my beta on July 3rd. I'm too impatient. When I was a little kid, I would snoop and snoop until I found where our Xmas presents were hidden, and then, I would carefully peel off the scotch tape so I could see what it was. And then, I would carefully put the present back together by taping exactly in the same places. So, you can imagine my impatience when it comes to something like finding out if I'm pregnant.
Hopefully my devious plan will work because it was negative this morning which means the trigger shot has left the building! Now, I just have to control myself long enough to not test every other day.
In other news, my RE called today and we ended up having 3 blastocysts frozen in total. I guess that's not bad - 5 of the 11 made it to blasts. She said the remaining embryos stopped growing at some point over the last 8 days. I'm fairly happy with that - if we have to do another cycle, at least we'll be 3 steps ahead of the game.

yeah, the 2ww pretty much sucks. All I can say is, BACK AWAY FROM THE HOME TESTS!! They will drive you completely insane. :-)
That's great that you have 3 blasts to freeze. I know what you mean about the 2ww. It's so hard. I'm trying to not test this cycle - I have tested for the last 23 cycles and none have been positive (except for when I tested out the trigger shot!)
Good luck!
Congrats on the 3 blasts!! Totcicles are awaiting.
Yup, the 2ww pretty much always sucks, but is at a whole new level for IVF. I am a POAS-phobic, but love to follow along with those who are so brave. (: Good luck!!
2ww is really very agonising cuz it's when you go really insane!! Here's my tips for how to stay sane for 2ww: http://pamelageorge.blogspot.com/2008/06/how-to-stay-sane-in-your-2ww-or-1ww.html
I was a POAS addict, pretty similar to a crack whore.
Giving you some sane hugs and hope this cycle works for you!!!!
