I feel nothing either but from everythign I've heard, no symptoms does not mean no pregnancy. Have any of you done a hpt? I'm just so scared of that phone call. I'll be teaching all day. What am I going to do if it's negative? Start crying in the middle of class? Am i being too negative?

No, your not being negative...your feeling what I and I am sure everyone feels and that is masive anxiety about hearing a BFN. I have not done a HPT, but that does not mean I won't...I am thinking of doing it Sunday. I can't imagine just how crushed I am going to be while the call comes in on Tues while at work. I thought about having my DR. call my DH and break the news to him-I just know know. I wish I had at least one symptom...only fuller boobs and there not even sore. After 7 failed IUI's for no reason, this is our last hope. I only have 1 embryo that they were able to freeze.

Please don't give up hope. I can sense the same frustration and sadness in your writing as I feel myself. There are so many women who have gotten positive pregnancy tests with no symptoms at all. What I don't understand is that some of these women say they didn't think they were pregnant becasue they felt like their period was coming. That is a symptom. I don't even feel liek my period is coming. I used donor sperm as well because of severe male infertility. This is my first IVF and I have never tried IUI. I'm thinking if this fails, I will do IUI. The reason I didn't try with IUI first is becasue we were going to use my husbands sperm with donor back up but at the time of fertilization, his sperm was not in any shape to fertilize and egg. Now that I know we are using donor sperm 100% I will try IUI. Is it an easier process? Hang in there and I am here for you whatever you need. I will pray for both of us.

Thanks for sharing your story. Onlyin your case, they transfered so many and you have such a good chance. IUI only has a 15-25% chance. Since I ovulate like clock work and we are using donor sperm, we did my IUI with an ovulator predictor kit and taking my temp's. IUI is much more affordable then IVF, but after 7 months of ordering sperm and paying $200.00 a insemination, it adds up quick and on some months I did two insemination's. We tried so many times my husband stopped coming with me, itjust became routine and a crimp in our schedule. Our ins. did not cover IVF and since my husband had a vasectomy, doubt he will go along with this another round.

Definitely NOT taking a HPT! Don't want to freak myself out twice!!! You can get false-positives/negatives and I don't need any emotional rollercoaster. I am feeling a few symptoms, but don't want to over analyze, because I want to be pregnant so bad! My breasts are tender, have some cramping and I noticed a darkening around my nipples (TMI...I know , sorry). So I am just hoping, praying ang keeping my toes and finger crossed that we have a +!!!! Thanks for everyones support!!!

Hi Ladies,

Baby dust to all! I am testing on 3/13 and 3/15. Nervous, nervous, nervous! This is our third cycle and probably our last try. I keep looking for symptoms as we probably all do. I have sore boobs and lots of cramping like I'm going to get my period. The cruel joke is that so many early pregnancy symptoms are also PMS symptoms. Also, with all of the medication we've all taken, any of these symptoms are easily caused by the meds.

I won't get a final answer until 3/15, as my clinic freezes the first sample and then runs them both together.

OKAY...We had a BFP!!!!!!!!! :D I can't believe it!!!! I am still in shock...I cried as soon as she told me the news. My HCG levels weren't that great though...76. I have to go back on Friday for another blood test. She wants them to be at 300...at least! So now I am praying hard for that! Just wanted to share the news. I am keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers! I will keep you guys posted on Friday's results!

Jen~ WHOOOOHOOOOOOOO!!!! I am so happy for you! A BFP!!!!!!! I don't think your #'s are low. Mine were 62 and two days later 261, or about that, and we're expecting twins! So don't let that get to you at all. Be happy and just enjoy your BFP and take care of yourself! A celebration is in order! Congrats!!!!!
