Hi Ladies,

Sorry I have not been on in awhile. I got busy with teaching starting back up. It was kind of nice, it kept my mind busy on other things.

gi--I am so happy your transfer went well. I hope the next 2 weeks goes by fast for you and that you get a positive test.

jenice-- your cycle is ...

elles--- Thank you for sharing your story. I know I have to keep the faith and hope that it will happen for us. When I get down I just remind myself that I am going to be a mom. Whatever way that happens that is a for sure. I am so happy for you. You must enjoy and love your daughter so much.

gi ...

Thanks ladies! I went to the doctor yesterday for a post op check up. He showed me the pictures from the laproscopy and explained everything. He is thinking it is either a chromosomal problem or that I may have a septate in my uterus. Either way we will find out in the next month. If it is the ...

jenice and gi,

Thank you for your kind words and stories of hope. I keep telling myself I can not get ahead of myself until we get the test results back. Each day gets a little better but each day I also have my crying session. I am a teacher so I have the summer off. The hardest part is the ...

Hi,

I recently had my second miscarriage after IVF. Both times the exact same thing has happened. We saw a heartbeat at 6-7 weeks and then shortly after it had stopped. Also both pregnancies were considered cornual. They were both in the upper right side of my uterus. Luckily both D and C's were ...

usmcwife14,

Thank you for your reply. It is nice to hear a positive story in all this. I am trying to stay positive and hopeful for my baby. I want everything to be ok but I also know if the baby is not strong enough or healthy it is not meant to be and it is better for he/she to be at peace. It is ...

Hi,

I went in for ultrasound last week. I was six weeks 2 days. The heartbeat was 115. I went in today, a week later and the heartbeat was 105. My doctor said I can wait a week to see what happens or go see an ultrasound specialist who does more in depth ultrasounds. We went to him and he measured ...

Hi Sunshine,

I had to do the same thing. I took 1,500 units every third day. My last shot was 6 days before my beta test. I was worried about the same thing and it did not affect it. Your doctor knows what they are doing and probably scheduled everything on time for you. I asked Ghost this question ...

Hi,

I was wondering if you could tell me a little bit about the HCG booster shot. After my tranfer my doctor is having me take HCG in small doses three times. I will take my last dose 1,500 units tomorrow and then I will test for pregnancy 6 days later. Will it be out of my system by then since I ...

Hi Ladies,

Thank you for all your positive tips. I wish all you the best too.

I had my transfer today. We transfered 2. One was a 7 cell B grade and the other was a 6 cell C-. The embryologist was very encouraging about the B embryo. At this point we feel we have every reason to be positive.

Let ...

Hi,

I had my retrieval yesterday. They retrieved 6 eggs. Only 2 were mature and those have both fertalized. The other two were immature and two were degenerated. I know I need to focus on the two we have but this just does not seem like good news. I have to wait until tomorrow to see how they are ...

Thank you everyone! My retrieval is tomorrow. I will keep you posted about how it goes.

You have all been cheering me on this past week and I so appreciate it!

Thank you so much for all your encouragement. Hearing your stories and positive attitudes really does help. It means so much more when it comes from someone who has been through all this and knows how I am feeling.

Well, I went in today for bloodwork and ultrasound. I have 3 good follicles and ...

Hi,

I am really needing some encouragement or success stories with few follicles. I am in the process of my second IVF. My first was in January. By going through it we found out I am a poor responder. I only had 5 mature follicles. I did get 5 mature eggs and 4 fertilitzed. We had two 8 cell B ...

Hi,

I am about the start my second IVF. My first ended in a miscarriage after 8 weeks. I only had 5 mature follicles on the long lupron protocal with nothing left over to freeze. My doctor wants to change it for the next time. She suggested the antagonist protocal. We went for a second opinion and ...
