Re: Chemical pregnancy? Did it happen to you?

This happened to me and it was a heartbreaking roller coaster. I hadn't heard of this happening so I was so shocked. My first beta was 125. I went 2 days later for another blood test and I was happy as a clam. They called me later that day to tell me that my beta fell to 120. I was so confused. I ...

Re: Baby Dust Needed

Hi!

I remember you from last year when I was going through my cycles. I always found so much comfort and support in your posts. I was so sad when you left the boards and was very disheartened by the reasons behind it. I'm so glad that you came back. I check this board now and again to remind myself ...

Re: Egg Quality

On my first IVF attempt, we had very poor embryos. Doc thought possibly an egg quality issue. I was so devastated to think that now we had another issue in addition to husband's issues. Next cycle...beautiful embryos...unfortunately, I m/c that cycle. But, by our next try (FET)...beautiful baby girl ...

Re: Bad morphology

My husband was diagnosed with poor morphology (2% normal) and slow motility...count was fine. No known issues with me. We did 4 IUIs with no luck. 1st IVF cycle was negative with nothing to freeze. 2nd IVF cycle ended in an early miscarriage, but we were able to freeze 8 embryos. Our first FET was ...

Anyone's husband on clomid??? Male factor issues.

We've been through 2 rounds of IVF already. Diagnosed with a male factor issue...2% morphology. Since we knew we'd be doing IVF regardless...we didn't address the male factor issue. Never a problem finding good sperm for ICSI.

Recently though, I thought that we should be more proactive. My husband ...

Another pregnant co-worker and I'm so sad.

I can't even count the number of people who have gotten pregnant since we've been trying. Today another co-worker announced her pregnancy. I literally started to shake. Of course i smiled and congratulated her...then, I went to my office, shut the door, and just cried my eyes out.

I don't know why ...

Need hope after m/c at 7.5 weeks.

My second IVF/ICSI went so smoothly. We produced some nice embryos, transferred 3 blasts and finally got our BFP. It was the happiest moment of my life to hear those results.

My numbers never went up as they should...not quite doubling and slowly increasing. The pregnancy was never going to be and ...

A friend of mine who went through IVF waited for her first blood test to find out results...the doc confirmed a BFP.

She went home and just had to POAS...she wanted to see those 2 lines...well, she got a BFN.

Moral of the story...those little sticks can be so, so wrong. Even after she was ...

Implantation Spotting...anyone have this?

About 7 days after my five day transfer, I had some light spotting...it was just a litttle bit in the morning that I only saw when I wiped...it was pinkish in color. By the end of the day there was a little trace of it...but nothing I would notice if I wasn't looking.

Has anybody had this happen ...

Well, I actually waited a while to contact my doctor because I knew he would tell me to take a pregnancy test...and after so many months of trying...I think I have a fear of those things now. OnceI got up the nerve to take the test, and it came back negative, I did call my doc. I think that was ...

That was me exactly. After an unsuccessful IVF, once I stopped progesterone injection, AF came as scheduled. So, I figured that I was back on track. Well, the next month, AF was so late...I think she finally came after 49 days. Apparently, this is normal...I spoke to my doc about it...I guess it ...
