Testing Question (old BFP mentioned)

5000 Comments Fifth Anniversary 500 Love Its First Answer
edited December 2014 in Getting Pregnant
Beta is Friday am because they don't do betas on Saturday's and I'm too impatient to wait til Monday. When should or shouldn't I test? (DH actually told me to ask the ladies because we're both indecisive about this)

FWIW: with the last IUI I got a -HPT at 8DPO and +HPT at 10DPO. Also, DH and I work all week so the beta call I would get by myself at work, unless I let it go to VM, but I don't think they'd tell the results on VM. They'd probably only say they have the results.

  • I voted Thursday, but if you wanted to wait for beta, you could probably ask them to leave the results in a voicemail. They may say no, but it'd be a quick call to find out. That said, I don't think I'd be able to wait til I got home knowing the results were waiting for me on my phone.

    I'm in this club with these ladies. 


    Also, my RE's office would leave voicemail results, I just had to tell the lab tech that it was okay for the nurses to leave the message.  Maybe if you request it, they will?  I told them H and I wanted to hear the results together and there was no issue.   Of course, I also peed 6 days before my beta....so it was really a null point, but they didn't need to know that.
