Congratulations to lilmd on BFP and to Kikie on finding a healthy baby. I cheated and looked on another thread and I know someone here is carrying multiples. I won't mention names but I would be elated with having more than one even it does mean a higher risk pregnancy.
Thanks to BarbD, Labstoo, Kikie, tburks, Molly23 and Siouxsie for your kind words of comfort. Because believe it or not, I do get comfort reading your posts. Good luck *Ert* on your ultrasound. I'm sure its just a tipped uterus and not an ectopic.
This is my official goodbye (but I'll probably still sneak a peek at the boards every once in a while). I'll never forget you lovely ladies who I cycled with. You will always be near and dear to my heart and I continue to pray for healthy pregnancies and healthy little ones when the time comes. You got me through the cursed 2ww, I only wish I could continue with you through the PIO injections , the morning sickness, the weight gain and labor. Sigh... Kittycat good luck on making a decision. I'm not yet at a place to make any decisions on the future. DH took me on a nice trip to Vegas and it was exactly what I needed. Infertility sucks but life is good.

I wish you the best in whatever you decide to do. You are very lucky to have such a wonderful husband. That is so important going through all this but also just in life. Remember how lucky you are in that aspect right now.
I wish you the best and hope you are blessed with a little one some day!!
Thank you for your words of support. This has been a long week and I am anxious for tomorrow.
Ionlywant1, thanks for all your support. Good luck on whatever you decide on doing and I wish you the best. I am glad that you have such a great and supportive dh as well--I will miss you on this thread. Take care!

Things did not so so well on Tuesday. We no longer saw the heartbeat. I am scheduled for a D and C on the 17th. I will probably not be on the boards for awhile. Thank you for everyones support and I wish you all the best.
I have read through some of your posts, congratulations to all those with their BFP, and I am sorry for those of you who did not have your BFP this time.
I was wondering if there were any ladies here still in their 2ww, I started mine on wednesday, I am not a first timer but would still like to share this time with others...

Hello All, I am new to this thread, do beta test on 3/18 for first IVF cycle I am also on the April/May thread that I know some of the other ladies (Lee) are on also. I have found it to be such an amazing group of women. I would like to be on both threads at this point. Of course right now I am double guessing every single symptom I am having. I'm tired- oh I must be pregnant, I'm cramping and bloated- Ohh I can't be pregnant and my period is coming soon...... Why do we do this to ourselves? Human nature I guess. It seems like the 18th might as well be a year away- Haha
Well good luck to us all, and I'll keep in touch, Melanie
*Ert* I realize that I said my goodbye on this thread but I couldn't help myself. I also realize that you probably won't read this reply for a while but I just want to reach out to you. Thirdly, I realize that this topic doesn't really fit with this thread but honestly, corresponding made the 2ww less stressful for all the others that have yet to test. I've been praying very hard every night for all the people on this thread that I've "met". It helps me heal my heart by focusing on trying to do good for others. I'm certainly not all the way healed but I'm getting there. I'd have to say this is harder than my other two cycles where I had a chemical and BFN. At least it was over by the 2ww. This time I actually fantasized about the delivery date and see the joy in DH eyes to hold our baby for the first time. (My fault I know) D@#%mn life is hard! I think that its even more devastating to have seen a heartbeat than to just see an empty sac like me. I suggest that you take a nice getaway after your d + c, eat chocolates, get drunk, have a good cry, hug your DH, go to the spa, go shopping! You have youth and good health on your side and that is a profound blessing. As always time will help make the your wounds hurt less. Know that I'll continue to think about you and wish you all the good things in life today and always.

Hi Mel how are you feeling today, test day tommorrow, have also had same symtoms as you have described, bloating, cramping, tender boobies more tired etc etc, and then giving myself reasons why!!!! Very frustrating, thought this wait would be easier that the others as I have done it before but I think because I got a BFP last time it has made this wait even harder, I am so convinced it is going to work I think I will come crashing down if it doesn't!!
Can't believe I am almost half way through all ready tho. Only one week and a day to go!! Will try a POAS test on friday and see what happens.......
Hi cadys haow are you doing?? Are you getting as frustrated as me, you are about 3 days behind me I think?? So what is your story??
I have premature ovarian failure and after 2 failed attempts we have used donated eggs from my sister. Out first ED attempt just before xmas was successful with a BFP but I sadly miscarried in December at 7 weeks, we decided to try again staright away as you can see from my signature we have been doing this for 7 years now and I am ready for it to be over. We transferred two grade 10 embryos, which is the top grade for our clinic, this is our last go as my other 2 embryos did not survive, so the waiting game feels as tho it is dragging forever this time.
Hope you are doing ok............

Hey Lee good to hear from you!
I did a POAS this AM and it was a BFN
I promised myself I wouldn't do one, and I caved. I'm so mad at myself for doing it too.
I still have a little hope that tomorrows blood test could still be positive, but for the most part my symptoms have gone away and I am just expecting bad news tomorrow. Luckily we got 11 frosties out of this cycle, so we will try FET as soon as RE says I can.
I'll let you know how it goes tomorrow. I would definately advise staying away from HPT's though, I really wish I hadn't done it. At least I would still have hope today
Take Care, Melanie
melanie- I know it seems tough, but just try and stay positive, nothing is official until beta, and for my first cycle, I also had a bfn on hpt the morning before my would have been beta (my beta was supposed to be christmas day but everyone was closed, so it got pushed back a day). So when I got my actualt beta 2 mornings later (which should have been 1 day after beta) it was only a 44, which is why my hpts were still negative. And I had a successful pregnancy, so don't lose hope just yet...I will be praying for you.
Me- 28 DH- 33 Male Factor
1st IVF- 12/07- BFP! Ella Michele was born 8/26/8
2nd IVF- 04/09 - BFN
1st FET- 09/09 - Chemical
3rd IVF - 04/11 - Embies didn't make it to ET
4th IVF - Fall 2011??
Thanks Michelle Your a sweetheart. I posted this on our April/May thread as well. I am curious to see what happens with the lady you were talking about that had BFP on HPT, but BFN on Beta. Sounds very odd to me. I guess tomorrow is a big day for a lot of us.
I'm trying to stay positive, but it's hard. Your prayers mean a lot. Like I said, my frosties give me hope, and I know someday it will happen for us.
Have a great day, and thanks again for your pep talk. I needed it.
Love Melanie
Got beta today-BFN
I'm Ok though, just wanted to update some of you guys.
I will be continuing to post in the April/May thread from now on since I can do my FET right away this cycle-- YEAH!!
Good luck to you guys and baby dust to all
I am writing as I have only just started loking into forums and could really do with some help or any knowledge.
Myself and DH have been trying to conceive for 8 years. I have had 2 MC's.
I am PCOS, I have had Laproscopy with Ovarian Drilling, 2 failed IUI's and one cancelled IVF. I have also have a bulky Uterus due to adenomyosis (Yes painful AF)
In Feb this year we went overseas to do IVF treatment and are now back in the UK. (we were fed up with the NHS process)! I had to do a 2 day transfer, my lining was 6.5 mm and I had 4 embryos transferred.
I actually did a Beta HCG on 11th March to see what was happening. The result was <1.00, So on the 16th March I did another BHCG and this time the result came in again as <1.00. I was still not convinced as I had a very strange feeling as if I was pregnant, so on 17th March I tried again and this time the result came in as 2.85, however I had started bleeding dark brown blood. I phoned the overseas doctor and he said that this was unfortunately a negative. I asked him did he think that this could be a case of Late implantation and he said no.
Despite his advice to stop all Progesterone pressaries I continued them and have waited for another two days and this time the Beta HCG test showed 3.95. I think AF is coming but I still remember reading on a board of someones experience who had bleeding aswell as an increasing HCG. I know these figures aren't brilliant but does anyone think that there maybe a chance?
