What to expect

I'm irritated because I already typed this all up and then lost it...

I'm 8dp5dt- no symptoms at all plus a little pink spotting this morning. Dr Z has me on both forms of estrogen until after my beta... so does anyone know when I'd expect my period? At the regularly scheduled time, or will the estrogen make it so I don't get it?

I bought some HPTs and brought them on vacation with us but don't know if I want to use them. I'll worried about getting a + and then having it end up being a chem preg. I also don't want a - to ruin our vacation. I just hate the waiting...

God, waiting sucks. I never get periods when I'm on estrogen/progesterone, but you know what? Pink spotting is not a bad sign at all...

Thinking of you. Hoping for a positive that turns into a baby at the end of it.

Hey I'm 8dp5dt too. Hopefully we'll both get good news soon - waiting is the worst. And pretty much the only guaranteed thing in IF.

Symptoms at this point can just be all the drugs - I've had BFNs with lots o symptoms and the BFP with nothing at all. So distract yourself however you can til beta day! I'd recommend against the test, cuz no matter what it reads you'll just wonder if it's false til the beta anyway. But do whatever keeps you calmest - good luck!

You might not get a period while on progesterone, though some do. I didn't have any sort of spotting until after I got my BFN from my beta and then stopped my progesterone. If its pink and stops then maybe that's a good sign. Don't test, it's not worth it. Just wait until your beta. GL.
