3RD IVF TIME AT 40


Hi, I am now 40 and previously had trouble with the embryos sticking! This is my 3rd go and my hubby and I had to use a donor sperm (who was about 26) because of male fertility issues.  I am in my 2 week wait and just taking prognova, aspirin, elevit and the pessaries 3 times a day.  I did colorado protocol and was on the pill for about a month prior to my 3rd IVF because the first 2 IVF gos didn't work - embryos didnt stick and my HCG didnt rise.

This time I was lucky to get a 5 Day transfer and had 2 blastocysts put back - transfer was on Tuesday the 30th of October.  Find out next week.  So far i have only had mild symptoms but hardly anything and it could be the pessaries - is it too early to get symptoms?? Please advise, am hoping for a miracle here as Im already 40 - please rise HCG - what should I be feeling now regarding symptoms - any advise would be helpful. Thanks Denise

i was preg 5 times and only successful the 5th time with a baby being born. i never felt preg really until after my 2ww was over.

but the rest of the months i felt pregnant and actually it was either the drugs or just my period. my vote is no symptoms = good sign.

good luck.

Good luck :). I really hope you are successful this round :). Some ladies have symptoms, some have none.  I personally had not 1 symptom until about week 10.  What day is your blood test on ??
