When should I go for CD3 blood tests????

[K123]

Not such a stupid question as it sounds - honest!!!

95% certain tomorrow will be CD1 for me and I'm due for CD3 blood tests. Only thing is that puts CD3 on Sunday and can only get them done Mon-Fri, so choice is CD1 or CD4. I'm guessing I should go on Monday rather than tomorrow but wanted to check what anyone else thought or had done if they were in a similar situation? Added into this is fact that AF nornally only lasts 3 days for me so will prob be over by Monday? Will that make a difference?

Hey hun go on Monday,last cycle my day 3 was on a Sunday so I rang the doc and they said anything upto day 5 is fine.gl with everything.fx'd af stays away and u get ur bfp though xx

Oh btw no it won't matter that af is only 3 days long xx

Thanks. Had been sure I'd go on Mon til thought that AF might be over which got me confused.
Would be lovely if I didn't need to go but have started spotting a little which is standard for me day before AF. Not going to get upset though - a June baby will be just as good as a May one!

Go on CD4 instead....

I had this same problem when I had to have CD3 bloodwork done but i was determined it will be cd 3 i had them done!!!

In the end I got a pouches and Vials from my gp a on cd 1 ... went to a open walk in centre on CD3 with them... they took my blood for me I then took my vials of blood to be tested to my local hospital... dropped them of at the reception and beacuse my local docs gave me the bags they sent my results to them was so much hard work though

I went for my day 21 test last Friday as it was as close to 7DPO as I could go (last Sat would have been the perfect day, but with bank holiday weekend later would have been 10DPO).

Oooo so urll get ur results quite close together and soon xx

Yes! Going to wait and see Dr when both lots are back. Don't think she'll do much with them though (although my Dr is great) because really being done so FS has them at my first appointment in Nov. Am going to push for scan asap though if any sign of PCOS as I'm a bit concerned that'll be a problem for me.
Have you got your CD3 results yet or are you getting both lots at the same time?
