Thank you all for your kind words. I'm just amazed by the outpouring of support that has come through my online community. It's so incredible to have been able to connect with so many strong women.

Hi all -
I'm moving over from the December board -- got my BFN yesterday. I'm not surprised in the least, but truly heartbroken. We are working on scheduling our WTF? appointment for this Thursday and will move on from there. We did IVF for severe male factor and it's looking like donor sperm might ...

Bad news for me too... Beta was negative. It's no surprise really, but it hurts just the same. We are truly heartbroken. We are trying to schedule our WTF? appointment for this Thursday so we can figure out the next step. I am 99.9% sure that we will be moving onto IUI with donor sperm. We tried IVF ...

So, I'm freaking out a bit. I had awful cramps yesterday (7dp5dt) like AF was going to start any minute. I woke up feeling fine, but found spotting that has become progressively heavier throughout the day. It's not heavy like my usual AF and my cramping is very mild today. What is going on???

Congrats to everyone with BFP's this month! There are some great things going on in this thread! :D

Jen -- Sending you lots of positive thoughts. I hope you get good news next week.

As for me, HPT this morning -- 7dp5dt -- and got a BFN. I know it's early, but I'm pretty sure I'm out. To make ...

I've been searching for an answer to a similar question since my transfer on Saturday. We also did ICSI for severe male factor and our embryos were not quite as developed as my doctor had hoped for on day 5. They were in great shape on day 3 (all 8 and 10 cell) and then really slowed down. We had ...

Awesome news, Easley!!!!! I'm hoping to follow in your footsteps very soon! How many dpt did it take for you BFP? My beta is also scheduled for 12/20.

Sounds like a successful transfer Katie! Congrats on being PUPO! Welcome to the 2ww. I'm on day 2 and already feeling tortured!!!

Well, I am officially PUPO! This is the first time in my life that I have actually had a chance at becoming pregnant and it really is nerve wracking. Our embies really slowed down after day 3 and when we transferred yesterday at 5 days, the best was an early blast. I was really hoping for a better ...

Katie - Your fert report is awesome!!!

I talked to my IVF Coordinator yesterday and she explained that no news from the embryologist is good news at my clinic. That put my mind at ease somewhat. I think we will likely hear from our RE today since my transfer is scheduled for tomorrow morning ...

Well, my clinic doesn't do reports until the day before transfer. The nurse I spoke to earlier in the week apparently thought we were doing a three day transfer, which is why she told me should would call me with a report yesterday. I'm so stressed!!! Just hoping those little cells continue to divide.

Out of 12 eggs, 8 were mature and 7 fertilized! I'll be a ball of stress until I get my next report in a few hours.

Congrats on a great 2-day report Layla!!!

Layla~ Great news!!! I hope those cells keep on dividing for you!!! I'm really hopeful that I will get a good fert report today as well. Saturday can't come soon enough!

Leora~
I know how hard it is to stay positive when you've experienced so many hard times, so much bad news. The thought of another loss must be so terrifying for you... and I consider a BFN to be a loss. I'm thinking about you and hoping you can find at least some moments of peace of mind in the ...

Hi ladies~
It sounds like there is some great stuff going on this weekend! My fingers are crossed for all of you that just had your ER's and ET's. My ER is scheduled for tomorrow morning at 9:15!!!!!!! I'm so excited and nervous.... I'm just hoping things will go smoothly and we will have good ...
