Hello Ladies,
As predicted not good news for me after Mondays beta Im definately not pregnant -IVF now possibly over for us
It all depends on our appointment with Fert Doc in mid August Im hoping he lets me do another treatment in October as me and DH are not ready for the donor route just yet we want one final fling with our own cargo

AnnPage all the best at your next appointment try and stay positive,I know how scary it can be after a MC late last year.
S&S thanks so much for your kind wishes ,I wish sometimes I lived in the US so I could have an army of embryos put back at transfer as they only permit two where I live
Maybe if we go the donor sperm route I might come to the US and do my "sperm" shopping

Well you girls stay safe,stay pregnant and keep inspiring women like me to never give up....
Im not sad this time round.. I did loads of crying last week (drug related emotions) but I am kind of sick of IVF dominating my life so need a month or so of R&R to refresh myself but I will check in on how you are all getting along.

Hi Tas-- I just got caught up on posts-- sorry to hear about your status-- sounds like taking a break will be helpful and healing for you. I will keep you in my prayers... and I hope that your doc gives you excellent advice and care!

Annpage-- I have been out of commission lately because DH and I were at a monastery having a retreat and so there was no cell phone or internet. Hope all is well with you.

I have a 6 week check and learned that one embryo is growing in my uterus (we weren't sure about multiples) and there was a good heartbeat at the time of the scan. So far, so good. They also checked for fibroids, which I apparently have, but they didn't think that there would be a problem b/c of where they were located.

I have another scan in 2 weeks.

Sunshine: Are you pregnant with twins? I read that you heard 1 heartbeat, which is great! Does it mean it's too early for the other one? I was curious because I went for my 1st u/s & they saw 2 sacs one with a yoke the other not. This Thursday I go for a 2nd u/s to hear the heartbeat & update on what's going on. I had some brown spotting for 2 days two days ago.
I was concerned with that. I'm not sure if I'm having single or twins.
My 1st Beta 281
2nd 577
3rd 6309
Did you have bleeding?

Hi Annpage,
I was told that only one embryo was growing...so I suppose the others just didn't implant. I really haven't had any bleeding-- there was one day when I saw something different in terms of discharge (sorry if too yucky), but it really wasn't blood-- it happened after they did the pelvic exam and ultrasound and I think that it was because they were moving things around a bit down there. So, I really didn't worry about it because it didn't continue and it wasn't bright red or anything.

I was told at my IVF clinic that some bleeding is "normal" but that I should call with any changes.
We go back on Monday for an 8 week ultrasound-- this will be my second ultrasound since pregnancy, and I hope that I am not going too much.

I will be thinking of you-- that you will have a good solid pregnancy-- either with twins (how exciting) or a very blessed little bean!

Thanks Sunshine!! I went for B/w & u/s yesterday, we saw 2 sac w/ yokes...So It's TWINS!!! We're so excited & Thankful!!
We heard both heartbeats which was really cool. The RE was poking around & found another sac...I said oh no but he said the yoke is bigger than the sac & thinks it won't make it. It had a heartbeat also...pretty sad but pleased we're having Twins!! I'm going 1 more time to my RE & then being discharged to my OB. I'm 6 weeks 5days.

Annpage-- That's awesome! So glad to hear your good news--I'll be hoping that the other twin hangs in there!!!
Keep us posted!

I have another u/s on Monday. I will be 8 weeks then. Hopefully, the little one is growing and doing it's thing!!!
