ivf patient waiting patiently for pregnancy result...

Hi - I'm an ivf patient.  I underwent my ivf transfer on 17 November and took a HPT on 26 Nov and it was negaitive.  I went into the hospital's lab dept on 27 Nov (they were closed on the 26th) and the reading was 0.1.  I'm supposed to have another hcg blood test performed today, but the lab is closed again - I guess since it's Sunday...how convenient!  I am hoping my hcg will rise and maybe I have a late implanter as I know can occur.  I've been reading many articles on webmd and other forums/blogs.  I've seen that some women have had "late implanters".  I've had some pregnancy symptoms, but I also know that sometimes the Progesterone can give women these symptoms so I'm confused and trying to be patient until I can get to the lab tomorrow to find out what my hcg levels are.  I'm not going to do an HPT again - I'm just going to wait and see what my HCG levels are.  

Just wondering if there are any other ivf patients out there who have experienced the same thing?  

P.S.
For anyone who may respond, thanks in advance for your time.  I'm new to this, so the only abbreviation I know is "HPT" (Home Preg Test) so please keep that in mind when you're responding!!!
