Hello ladies! After reading SO many forums and stories, I finally gave in and decided to stop lurking and post. I had my first ET (one perfect grade embryo and male factor infterility - IVF w/ ICSI) a week ago tomorrow and my beta is scheduled for this Friday. I'm driving myself absolutely INSANE! I'm such a control freak and not having any control over the dreaded TWW is God awful to me. I broke down over the weekend and took an HPT (against doctor's orders of course). It was positive....but knowing that I was injected with Ovidrel 13 days before I tested had me worried the test rendered a false positive. With my breasts feeling like darts shooting out of my chest, I'm hoping the test proves true. I tested again today, and still positive. I should just stop wasting my money on HPT's, I know, but I can help it. I can't stand this waiting game!
Congrats to all prego ladies out there and much luck to those in the same boat as I. Thanks for letting me vent....I do feel so much better now!
steph i test with an hpt exactly 12 days after my ovidrel shot and it was a positive and i took one everyday till my bt and they got stronger and stonger. Of course it was positive. I think at 13 days past your trigger shot its a pretty good sign that your getting a positive! I also tested at about 9 days and it was negative so i was pretty certain once i got that positive it was a really good thing. It sounds like an early congrats are in order! ironically the positive hpt made me even more anxious to get to that docs office ! LOL

hi Sleepyfoy,
I just booked an appointment with an acupuncturist. I was speaking to a friend over the weekend who had a successful IVF and she said to do accupuncure plus see a herbalist. She ended up getting pregnant 3 times. 1st on IVF and 2nd and 3rd naturally and swares by the acupuncturie. I am going to do a fresh cycle next. probably start in Sept/Oct.

brandi that is ridiculous that your doc said that or even implied it. They are not there to scold you for asking questions or for being worried. Is this your regular obgyn? or your fertility doc. My fertility doc and nurse would rather me ask any question that ignore something and they have said that a million times. Maybe you need a new doc that will take the time to help you feel better about your concerns. My regular doc is kinda like that. She intimidates me and makes me feel dumb. My problem is i have to stay with her because she is the only high risk doc in my area ... so no matter who i change to,,, I would be referred to her LOL. Its been hard for me to stand my ground sometimes but if you can't change docs.. you will definitely have to learn to speak your mind. How rude that doc is!!!! sorry he made you feel that way

That is awful that your doc made you feel that way. I had a similar experience with my last pregnancy. I rushed to the hospital because I was bleeding very badly and passed several large size clots. When my doctor saw me in the emergency room, he implied that, "I wasn't bledding that badly" He also said that I can't run to the hospital everytime I start bleeding a little. I was shocked and so taken back that I couldn't respond. (I thought of several things to say to him after the fact, but by then it was too late). He is the best high risk doctor in my area so I felt like I had no choice. His bedside manner was atrocious. Despite all of that, I stuck with him through the entire pregnancy because I felt that he was the best in his field. I did get a little more outspoken as my pregnancy went along. So, regardless as to how your doc makes you feel, don't let him intimidate you. Don't stop asking questions or voicing your concern. You have the right and your doc shouldn't make you feel that way. I understand if you can't change doctors, but I would defintely make them aware of your concerns.
Glad to hear everything went well in your checkup. Did you hear the heartbeat?
Brandi I simply cannot believe the nerve of the doctor please whatever you do don't stop asking questions!!!!
I didn't realise that you had lost twins at 7 months either, I'm so sorry. Where they born premature?
I'm so sorry for your previous loss and your present a***hole doctor!!!

I had an ET on 7/21 and have been scouring the net for all sorts of ivf topics to keep me busy. My beta is scheduled for 8/3.
I'm so impatient.
I have the low abdomen pain/heaviness with a little crampiness. Everything I've read says it could be the progesterone or it could be a BFP. Either way...I'm impatient and want to know now
What an A hole your doc is... Is your doc part of a clinic- could you talk to someone about it or do you just have to take it lousy bed side manner and all. That really is not right. Does your doc know of your loss? Maybe if he/she does, maybe it would make him/her more sympathetic. If he/she does know.. what an asshole.
I am starting to get migraine like headaches again. I got them with Jack and I have had one all day long. SUCKS... Anybody suffering with migraines? What are you doing?
Well, I went for my beta on Friday and it was a BFP! My beta was in the thousands with only one blast transfer. My nurse says there's always that 1.4% chance it split....highly unlikely, but ya never know! I go for my second beta tomorrow morning. We are on cloud nine! Please keep your fingers crossed for us!
