Helen (Hackney) -
I am so happy to hear that you are cycling again! Best wishes!!!! My girlfriend had a fresh IVF this past spring and got a BFN, then she did an FET in September.. (from that same cycle) & got a BFP. She has just entered into her second trimester!

I will be thinking of you and ...

Hi Bonnie,

I had cramping and spotting with this pregnancy (I am pregnant with twins). The spotting was either transparent, watery pink.. or brown. I was told that this kind of spotting was "good spotting" as the uterus is stretching, the embryo is growing, and some of the old uterine lining is ...

Hi Karen,
My clinic has checked progesterone levels since my first beta. I got a BFP on 10/26 and we found out this morning that I am carrying twins! I was told that I could bank on getting the PIO injections for another 6 weeks or so.. (which would put me almost through my first trimester). I take ...

I am so sad about this news....
I guess we really just wore him out.

Hi Josefin,

With only 1 embryo, I would probably do the 3dt. I was told that 60% of embryo's don't live to see the 5dt...

My clinic only transfers on day 5, if you have several strong embryo's with great viability.

I would listen to your RE and do the transfer tomorrow.

Good Luck!!!
Lauren

Hi,

You have to look in the monthly cycle listings. there were some bfp's in sept/oct... i am one of them.

I had my first IVF in the beginning of October and I got a BFP a week ago.

Best of luck to you, in your cycle,
Lauren

Thanks for sharing!

HI,

Best of luck with your cycle.
I have PCOS and although I didn't hyperstimulate.. I created a lot of follicles. I had close to 60, at the time of retrieval. Some of them were large (23-25mm) where A LOT of the others were very tiny.. (still measuring in at around 12-13mm) My RE office didn't ...

hi wantamiraclebaby,

i will have you in my thoughts for your upcoming beta...
Sometimes those hormones can really make you feel terrible.. as if AF is coming.. but, just relax.. it could be implantation... so, just keep a positive attitude.. and good luck!

Best,
Lauren

Helen,

I am very sorry to hear your news... I was praying that you would be surprised by the outcome, today.

Take some time for yourself.. and keep up your positive attitude. Your BFP will come..

Hugs,
Lauren

Hi All,

I have an update on my 2nd beta.. in the 48 hour window my hcg level has risen from 215 - 538.. and progesterone has stayed about the same.. 51-52.

I am feeling pretty well.. except, stressed about the 3 inches of snow that we have on the ground!! October is WAY too early for snow in NJ ...

Hi everyone,

I have the results from my 2nd beta as well...
Ours has risen from 215 - 538! The progesterone went from 51 - 52.. so, that is steady!

I have an u/s appt a week from today to see how many sacs are there..
we either have twins or one very strong little embryo that could!

Hope ...

Val8375!

Congrats on the BFP!

I know you have heard this in earlier posts.. but, I have a few friends that started out with an HCG that was on the lower side.. and they went ahead and had wonderful pregnancies!!!

So, we will all be thinking about you that the next beta doubles... and you will ...

Hi Helen,

Thinking about you and hoping you made out well with the beta..

Best,
Lauren
