Latest you've kept a dewer?

edited November -1 in Trying to Conceive
I had to order a little early due to a weekend/Christmas. And that went smooth as butter, so of course my cycle is now being wonky. I honestly don't know if I'll even ovulate as it's CD 21, experiencing no O signs, super negative OPK test, and had a rather decent episode of mid cycle bleeding ... my woes aside..

The earliest I can send back the dewer if unneeded is Monday due to holiday/weekend. Meaning it would arrive to NW Wednesday so at that point it's been gone from NW 15 days. I haven't opened it.. is there a shot it will arrive still frozen? Does anyone have any experience with this... either keeping the dewer WAY long, or shipping back late? Can I ship on Saturday??

I can't belive this happened.. I would be a lot less disappointed in a BFN then just 900$ completely wasted. I tell ya.. we have ALL the luck. :(

    They are suppose to be good for 14days. You could try getting it refilled to improve your chances. Try calling NW doesn't ship wknds but ups does so they should be willing to pick up.

    No. And I'm sure you're thinking about their directive to check the contents.. But if your power is out and your trying to keep things frozen, do you open the freezer door?? Lol that's my logic.

    I never opened it either. I was always afraid it would somehow thaw it (probably by my error...lol)

    Yes that's what I'm talking about. It would be horrible if you go to inseminate and find your vials aren't frozen, or they sent the wrong ones, or shorted you. It is rare but it has happened.
