I am so sorry. Obviously, that doesn't begin to cover it, but please know that we're all crying with you. Please make sure you take time to do something really nice for yourselves because darn it all you deserve it!!!!!!
I will just say that there is a plan out there and everything happens for a reason. And if you've heard that too many times and are sick of it (I get that way sometimes) feel free to send a big punch in the face my way!

Sassy - so sorry to hear, sweetie. I've never heard of going straight into another cycle - that's pretty cool. No time to wallow in the sad stuff, just right back into action. I wish you the best in the next cycle - good luck to you!

sassynlv,
darn! I really was hoping a miracle was in store for you. It's good that you can start again so soon. But now that you have completed this cycle, you should give yourself a very special reward. It takes a lot of strength to go through all the stuff we do. Good luck with your next cycle. You can stay with us because you are still a November girl! :D
I have heard of the microflare protocol, but not sure exactly how it works. I think wannababy did a microflare cycle.

I started taking a differnt prog. pill today. It's called prometrium and it must be crazy potent stuff! I was taking a prog pill from a specialty pharmacy, they make it themselve. When I went to get a refill at CVS, they had to substitute it with this other stuff. I take 200mg 4 times a day, well soon after my second dose today, I got crazy dizzy and sleepy! It was like I was drunk or something. I had to take a nap. I signed out as soon as my cheek hit the pillow. I'm scared to take my next dose. which is in about an hour. :shock: Is anyone else taking prometrium? How does it make you feel?

Thanks everyone for your kind thoughts. Yes, I think I am going to get a massage, and I have a gift certificate to have my makeup done, so will definitely be using that. sassynlv, so sorry to hear about you also, but is nice to go right into another one.

Mia, yes I have taken the prometrium and it totally made me dizzy. When I questioned the nurse if anyone else had complained about it, she acted like I was crazy, but then when I looked it up on the internet, that is definitely a side effect. There were posts from other women complaining about the same thing. I swore I wouldn't take it again when I was finally done with it. The Dr had me use it vaginally during the day then, and then take the pill by mouth only at night time. You may want to see if that's an option if it continues.

Sassynvl,
I did a microflare protocol this last time and got a BFP. It is also much faster protocol, there is less downregging. PM me, if you need to know more. Good luck with everything! Lola

sassnlv--I'm so sorry about your BFN. Please take care of yourself. I love your PMA. Hopeful was right-I did do a microflare cycle. It involved more injections with the intent to produce more eggs. Good luck. It worked for Lola.

Hopeful--thanks for updating our chart my pg test is Nov 27.

OMG! I am in panic mode--I THINK I HAVE SOME TYPE OF VAGINAL INFECTION I was loaded up on extra antibiotics and think it may have caused something. My area feels real irritated and I had some kind of white discharge (I know TMI)--kinda lumpy. This can't be good. I'm thinking yeast infection. I used some kind of vaginal gel to prevent a yeast infection but maybe it is not that,but certainly something! If this is the case I might as well consider this cycle a BFN! I can't believe this. I just had my transfer yesterday.......

uh oh, Call your RE. Don't douche or put anything on it. Could be an allergic reaction to the medium the RE uses to clean the cervix. If that's it, you should be fine. I've been a little itchy since ET too.

Hello Ladies

Sorry to crash your thread. I'm really sorry to read all those BFN.

Vicky it's sounding really good for you. Can't wait to hear your beta numbers on Monday.

Ellie I think Sunday is going to be too early to do a HPT. You are only 8dpt that's definately too early. I know I've typed this a lot lately but I started doing HPT's at 7dpt, I didn't get a positive until day 10 (a faint positive). My clinic only do a beta if you get a positive result and they make you wait until day 16 before you do the HPT. That should tell us something. Some ladies do a HPT on the day of their beta and it's negative but the beta is positive. If you can handle it being negative then do it but if it's going to make you feel down - even though you know it could be too early for a positive - then I would say avoid them.

I was sick the week before my pregnancy test. This was way too early to be because of the pregnancy. Pregnancy only released the homones which make you feel sick from around week 6. Any symptoms you experience in your two week wait are from the progestone. I haven't been sick since. Please don't analyse every symptom, I'm still getting cramps but now it's the uterus expanding. The cramps you ladies feel now are from your overies being so large, doesn't necessarily mean AF is on the way.

Sorry if I've gone on a bit but I hope I may have helped a little.

Best of luck to all of you where ever you are in your cyle.

Take care

Jo

To everyone that had BFN I am sending big hugs and kisses. If I could I would also give you some chocolate b/c it always helps me when I am upset. I can't imagine what is it like to be you right now but I can emagine it is very frastrating and hurtful! I whish you guys the best of luck and let your next cycle be last!

Viki, I am so excited for your faint line, it sounds like a BFP to me!

As far as I go, my breasts are very BIG and very sensetive! So, I hope that this is a good sign. I am also always tiered and want to eat a lot of spicy food and another things I have noticed that everything seems too sweet to me lately. My BB is still cramping but it goes away so I hope that is a good sign as well. I don't know, we only have one day and 1/2 to wait.

Bunch of baby dust to everyone!
