Amy- I am sorry to hear your news. I wish you the best in all to come.
Pumma- Congrats so far. I know it is hard still not being sure and having things to worry about. We will keep you in our prayers, and please keep us updated.
To anyone still reading, I got confirmation today that we are having a little girl. I have joined the sept 08 thread on the other board, so feel free to stop and say hi anytime...
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??
I am new hear - I sure wish I had found this a long time ago......I am in the same boat - I am 9dp5dt and bfn again. I have a 3 year old through donor embryos and I tested bfp at 5dp so I am real disappointed. I read that some people don't get a + until BETA. What are those odds? Is it like 1 in a million or does it happen a lot? Please. And Again thanks to you guys

Hello and Welcome, In my opinion you are testing too early and do you know that most HPTs vary in sensitivity. Meaning one brand HPT can detect as little as 25 HCG and another needs as much as 100 HCG. So if you have a low HCG count it may still give you a negative on an HPT even if your a BFP. It is best for you to just wait for beta results! Beta results can detect as little as 5 HCG and most IVF clinics will say there is a pregnancy even starting at 10 - 15 HCG 14dpt. Then they test every 2-3 days and if it doubles and keeps doubling, it's a viable pregnancy....yahoo! You gotta keep a PMA, and know miracles happen. It finally happened for me on the 5th try.
I don't know if it helped but this last time I ate pineapple in the week after transfer cuz I read it helps with implantation........Anyone, else here hear that or try it?
Pumma - I just wanted to say congratulations and that I am so happy for you - I know you have been through a lot. I posted on this thread way back in the beginning for my first cycle, and I am about to start my third. Best of luck!!
Thanks for all the good wishes and congrats. I'll have to go back for another US on 29 April and so hope to see a heartbeat. I'll keep you posted how things are going.
Pumma: Congratulations! I will be keeping my fingers crossed for you that you see a tiny little heartbeat on April 29th!
CT-Michelle: Congrats on finding out you are having a little girl! We just found out yesterday that we are having a little boy and a little girl. I was pleasantly surprised when I went for my regular OB visit and the u/s tech said "do you want to know what you are having?" We have our anatomy scan scheduled for May 16 so we were thinking we would have to wait until then to find out.
Pumma- I just wanted to say we haven't forgotten about you...we will be awaiting good u/s results on the 29th! Please keep us updated.
Andnichole- Congrats on one of each! That is perfect and I am sure you should have no problems finding a neutral theme for your nursery!
I hope everyone has a nice weekend.

Pumma just wanted to know how things went for you today? I hope you have good news to report.
