I did an ET on the 22/05/2015 and I went for PT 03/06/2015 and it showed negative. Pls is anyone in shoes? Though my Dr asked me to come back on the 5/6/2015 for re test. Please am just confused.

Greetings all! I've been stalking this website for awhile. Thought I'd officially introduce myself...

I'm Valerie. I'm 38 (39 in August); my DH is 36. We TTC naturally for 6 months before starting fertility treatments. After 6 IUIs, they discovered one of my tubes was blocked. We moved on to IVF. We are currently on our 5th try of IVF. I'm in the dreaded 2WW; 5dpt.

First round: 8 eggs retrieved; all fertilized (7+cells each). Fresh cycle - transferred 2 embies (BFN). FET - transferred 2 embeies (BFN). FET - transferred 4 (BFP, but resulted in ectopic pregnancy. Terminated through emergency surgery at 9 weeks.)

Second round: 10 eggs retrieved, 8 fertilized (7+cells each again). Fresh cycle - transferred 3 embies (BFN). FET - transferred 3 embies on May 6, 2011... currently in dreaded 2WW.

This has been the hardest thing I've ever been through. It's so incredibly sad when everyone (and I mean everyone!) around you gets pregnant with no trouble whatsoever, and yet we still struggle. I get so angry and bitter sometimes, and then I'm ashamed of myself.

It's good to be around those that are also going through the same things we are. The whole process is heartbreaking. :(

Hi this is my 1st post on here. Well here goes this is my 3rd attempt at ivf after 2 failed attempts I'm using a donor egg this time I'm on day 11 of fet and did hpt on day c which was neg. The thing is iv woken up this morning with strong like period pains does this mean the end for me I bled much earlier on my other 2

My transfer was on April 3 as well - fresh cycle - first time doing this.. also two 8 cell embryos (on day 3). We have 2 blastocysts frozen. I am testing on Monday 4/18. Super nervous. How are you feeling? SHOULD I/we be feeling anything yet? I have been really tired and breasts are barely sore.. but that's about it as far as symptoms. I haven't had any spotting or bleeding, no cramps -- except gas cramps (which is very unusual for me, but learned this could be due to progesterone). I will pray for you! Please keep us updated on how you are doing!

Hi everyone!
I'm new to this forum. This is such an emotional time for all of us... I really appreciate you guys and being able to join in the discussion. My transfer was on April 3rd, it was a fresh cycle, 2 high grade, 8 cell embryos. We have one blastocyst frozen. I had a lot of pain after retrieval but none after transfer. I think I imagine pinching and cramps because I know what the "good signs" are. I'm hoping and praying for BFP for all of us on the 2ww.

I'm almost done with my 2ww... Thursday morning I go in for test. Just had a scare I am spotting funny colored discharge. Also been cramping for the past 2 days. I am anxious but ready!

[Sodesprate]

Hi can u pls add me to yo train. I did my ivf cycle for the first time. I am very inexperiance in ths procedure, but nw i am geting lot of informatin frm fellow experience women. Ths site is  is very helpful and healing in a way. So i am 13dpo today. Yesterday my blood test was negative but my af is not here and is suppose to arrive 3days bfore. I exerience crumbs and heart burn and discomfort at my lower abdomen, lower bak pain and a litle pain on my left side. Nw i am so confuse, the results r negative, but im stil feeling like ths. Can any one relate to ths?

[notpregyet]

No, I don't feel much.  I might be a little bit crampy but that's all...only in the last couple of hours too.  It's funny how in-tune we are to our bodies during this 2ww, isn't it??  Quick question though...Even if I'm not pregant, I won't start my period while I'm on the estrogen and progesterone, correct?  Also, would it be normal to have menstrual cramps on these drugs? (assuming I'm not preg)

Good luck tomorrow!  I hope all of that "activity" is a good sign!

[Verysoon]

Nash37- Do you feel any symptoms? This is my first IVF and I have not idea what I should look for.

notpregyet- We had ours done on the same day and I go tomorrow as well. Do you feel anything?  I just saw some darker brownish spotting a few mins ago. Which is different from the lighter pink I had the two other times I've spotted in this 2ww. I also have slight cramping on my left side.

[notpregyet]

Hey Natasha-

We're very close to the same schedule.  I also had frozen embroy transfer but last Thursday, 6/17.  Like you, I had negative hpt this morning (I managed to hold off until this morning....).  However, I go for blood test tomorrow, 6/28.  I will let you know.  This is my second and last IVF attempt.  Last month we transferred two 5 day blastocysts, this time we transferred three.  I'm very skeptical b/c of my neg pee test this morning but still hold a glimmer of hope that maybe the hcg hormone just isn't enough to be picked up by urine but will be in the blood.  You may still be OK Natasha.  I hope this works out for you, I will send up prayers!

[Kim104]

It was confirmed yesterday we are pregnant!  My beta numbers were 449 on Monday and yesterday they were 1400.  This is the best Christmas present ever!  With all that being said I know we have a long hall.  My husband is super excited, but to be honest I am a nervous wreck.  I just want everything to stay and go to the end.  I have to go in for an ultrasound in January so I will keep you all posted! Best of luck to everyone & Merry Christmas!

Kim

Congrats!

Good Morning Ladies,

I just wanted to let you know that I took a HPT yesterday and today, and they both said pregnant!  I am trying not to get too excited though as my second transfer I also had a positive on day one, but by day three it I had lost it.  I will know for sure tomorrow though!  I am praying for every one of you, and please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as well!

Hi everybody-

Was just reading some of the posts and oh my goodness, I can relate to everybody! I had a 2dET on 12/12 and now am officially on the 2ww. I don't like this part! This is my 2nd cycle and want it to work so badly! This cycle is so completely different than the first cycle. First cycle, no cramping. 2nd cycle, lots of cramping. On end of day 6, spiked a 99.9 fever (which I've read can be implantation signs), get these sharp cramps that come and go and today, have pretty sore breasts. I keep telling myself this could be a good sign but know this could also be meds. It's so disappointing when it doesn't happen and I feel I'm just having to protect myself so much this cycle. The ups and downs of this are aweful and it can be so hard to concentrate on anything else. My test, like several of you, is the 28th. Can't wait for the day to get here.

Thanks to everyone for posting on this forum... it's a great help. Good luck to all of you! Keep us posted of how things are.

[Kim104]

Thank you so much you really are making me feel so much better!  It is just so good to talk to someone who understands about all of this.  After four failed IVFs and only one vile of my husband’s semen I am really starting to loose hope, and we just want this so bad.  

[Justpacking]

Keeping my fingers and toes crossed for ya!!!!!  

[minu01]

Thank you so much for your suggestiong. I am plannign to do my HPT on 12/25 as my nurse moved my beta appointmnet to 12/28.. If I will do my HPT on 12/25 I will let you guys know iwth the result.

Thanks Once again...

[minu01]

Dont worry .. I had some cramps yesterday and my nurse said that its perfectly normal. It may be becasue of implantation or hormones in our body. My nurse told me if I cant stand any very sharp cramp just give them a call. So you should call your nurse and ask her why is it happening. You will be fine. My nurse moved my appointment to 12/28 because she said on 12/24 it will be 13 days and they dont do blood test until 12/25and 12/25 they are closed so I will try to do HPT on 25th. Hopefully it works this time. You will be fine just stay positive and God forbid If it wont work this time God might give you twins next time. Then you will get two instead of one so just think positive. I read so many ladies had bad cramps here on this forum and they got their Positive result. I think this is a good sign... I will pary for you and all the ladies here.

[Justpacking]

Some ppl are NOT a fan of the HPT's. Myself however,,,lol. I tested on day 9. Keep in mind tho. I never had a Trigger shot. (I'm a Surrogate Mother and the Intended parents used an Egg Donor so I had no traces of a Trigger shot in my system, which could give you a false result on a HPT if you take it too early)

I'm a firm believer if your stressed out and want to take a HPT, then do it on day 9pt. And tell yourself, no matter what the results are, it could be too early. Less stress stress, the better chances of a positive on BETA DAY!!.

Best of luck minu01

O.k. so I am really depressed!  I was doing fine up until last night.  I was lying down on the couch reading my book and when I got up I had three really sharp cramps.  They were really bad, so bad in fact that I had to sit down for a second.  Now I feel like that was it and I defiantly will not be pregnant.  I wish I could take away this horrible feeling I have.  I am praying that it was maybe just gas and nothing else, but I am just so afraid that it is not going to work again.  I always do well with not worrying about it the first week, but as the result day becomes nearer I start to freak out that it may not work again.  I am really starting to loose hope!  
To minu01
We are alos on the same time frame here!  I have gone both ways with the HPT test.  This time I have decided that I am going to take the HPT on Monday.  It will at least give me some time to prpare myself for Wednesday's final results and hopefully make my holiday a little easier knowing either way.

[minu01]

I had my 3dET on Dec 12th and I am on 2WW. Just few cramps here and there. Have appointment for Beta on 12/24. Its so hard to wait. I want to do HPT but also don't want to . I don't want to discourage my self with negative result on HPT test. I had 2 failed IUI and went for IVF after two IUI's. My RE transfered two embryo on actually 2nd day because he said out of 9 only 2 left which divided in six and four cells on day 2 and are very good quality.I am 25 years old. I am so worried and nervous. Just got done with Fall semester so have nothing else to do to keep myself busy. I read all the forums here. Do you guys suggest to do HPT?
