I took another HPT this morning & it was completely NEGATIVE. And I don't have cramps anymore. I guess this time is just not going to work out. I'll let you guys know for sure on Friday, but my guess is that I'll be back on the MB's in a couple of months going through another fresh IVF cycle.
I'm very, very bummed out.

2ndtimer, I am so sorry that you feel that it is over. I know what that is like so I am not going to try to convince you otherwise. You know your body best!!
Maybe we'll both be cycling for our next fresh cycle together! I am going to get a hpt today and try it in the morning just to confirm what I already believe. But given that I've had 3 chemical pregnancies, I still won't be convinced even if it is possible.
Gosh this whole process is difficult!
Hang in there!!!
Kelly and 2ndtimer,
I am really sorry that you feel like it is over, but still you don't have your bloodtest yet, so please, just wait may be you are wrong, and i will be thinking about you both!!!!!

Okay, so I went to the drugstore at lunch and bought a hpt. I had brown spotting this morning that keeps coming and going - but now it is gone. So, I figure tomorrow morning I'll do an hpt and see what it says. Although not that an hpt solves things for me because I have had 3 positive betas but all chemicals. So, I won't truly know until next Wednesday once I get my second beta. gosh, it is crazy!!!
Kelly,
yes they are better in the morning, they say first morning urine, but my tests were darker with second, i guess everybody is different. Good luck!!!

Well it looks like it is over for me (not that I am surprised). I started bleeding this morning and took a hpt (9dp5dt) and it was negative. I was pretty sure it wasn't going to work because of my DH's dna fragmentation results, but I had a tiny bit of hope. I'm not as devastated as I was the last 5 times! So, we will now look to donor sperm and hopefully get the bfp in October/November.
Thanks Kelly,
I'm sorry to hear about AF coming & the HPT neg.
I really didn't expect to be such a basket case this time. I've been thru this before. And I felt basically fine until about Monday evening. For the past couple of days I've been in a complete mind fog, weepy & tearful, hard to concentrate, you name it. I guess the hormones are just hitting me hard this time.
Whatever the outcome tomorrow I'm just really looking forward to some resolution. Either the HPT was wrong with the last neg & I'm not crazy just pregnant. Or the test was right & I can stop all these meds and get back to feeling like myself again.
Thanks to everyone for all your support. This MB is a lifesaver!

Stressball,
please don't be sorry or feel like you need to apologize for not writing for a few days. No apology needed, we've all been there. I glad you doing well enough to write now.
And I also think it's completely normal to take some time off from work after a failed cycle. This has got to be one of the most stressful things a person could do to themselves.
Hang in there. I'll let you guys know tom how my blood test goes.
2ndtimer
2ndtimer,
Good luck on friday!!!!
Kelly and Stressball, i am very sorry that it didn't work for you this time, you will have your baby, i just know it!!! Lots of hugs!!!
Vlada.
It's official. BFN. My HCG was 2. They didn't even believe me that any HPT's were positive. And they made me wait until 4:30 today!!!!
Looks like I'm going to have to go through all this crap again in a couple of months.
2ndtimer
Hi 2ndtimer,
I am so sorry, you probably had a chemical pregnancy, since your hpt showed positive. Good luck for your next time, and again i am very sorry to hear about your BFN.
Vlada
Hey 2nd timer...I know how you feel honey....I am still recovering....got AF...very bad pain...I feel like I just want to stay in bed...I went in a party and when I was laughing with others...I felt I was cheating myself...I actually felt like crying when I was laughing...
I wish I could advice you something...I can only wish that Vlada's wish for us come true...Thanks Vlada...
Kelly whats up with you.....

Hey guys,
Thanks for the kind words & support. It really does help. I've felt like an emotional wreck for the past couple of days, but I guess I'm hanging in there. I even went out to a college football game yesterday. I went shopping today, but had a few episodes when I teared up & had to go out to my car.
I've decided that in the next couple of days I'll really going to start up with exercise. Last year I started a beginning women's running group & it was great. This year I can't commit to the whole program since I know I'll be doing another cycle soon, but I'm going to try to meet up with some of my running buddies. I'm also going back to yoga after the 2WW break I took. In other words, I think I'm just going to stay as busy as possible until the next cycle.
Stressball -stay in touch & let me know what your next step is when you decide.
KellyM -you too.
Vlada -I hope you & baby are doing great! Your success gives me hope.
Best of luck to all,
2ndtimer
