BFN 9dp5dt- worth testing again?

I had my 8th and final embryo transferred on 2 December. I did my beta yesterday (9dp5dt) - it was negative. They don’t give the exact value just <2.4. Has anyone had a negative or super low HCG on day 9 and gone on to have a positive? I’ve messaged my doctor, but behind it’s the weekend, I may not get a response until Monday. I took my progesterone last night but haven’t yet this morning. I’m debating whether to just stop taking it. This is the end of the road for me - I’ve lost 5 years of my life trying to have a second child and just can’t take this all anymore - it’s not fair to my husband or daughter and I will be 40 at the end of the month so feel it’s time to quit. I have had 3 natural pregnancies, but second we lost at 20 weeks following a cordocentesis, and the third, was a missed miscarriage of twins. Feeling so defeated that after 8 transfers, none have stuck and I can’t give my daughter a much longer for sibling.

I am so sorry you have had your BFN again, especially after such a difficult journey.

I don't want to give you false hope, and I guess your clinic have OTD on 9 days post transfer for a reason but it seems early to me - my clinics OTD is 14 days post transfer. When my friend got pregnant with her second she had a squinter on a FRER on day 10 and 11 which slowly developed. Maybe test again Monday just to be sure? So sorry for all you have been through and are going through x

I’m so so sorry you’ve did everything you could though and you should be proud of yourself how hard you've tried and all you’ve been through your daughter is so lucky to have you 💜🤗 xx

Hi Mdms. So sorry to hear this, but you still need to keep up with any prescribed medication and test again on Day 12 unless you have been instructed differently. Obviously, I do hope you still get a positive outcome, but if not, just be proud of what you have been through, and that remember that you will experience love like never before from your daughter as you have many adventures to come. Thinking of you. Diane

Thanks, my HCG today 11dp5dt was still negative so I’m officially done. It’s such a disappointment end since all the doctors said I’d be pregnant first round and. As pregnant 3 times naturally and there is absolutely no explanation. Good luck to all of you and hope your journeys all end better.
