Day 3 ET

Hello Ladies

I am a 37 year old women on my second attempt at IVF, I am day 6 of my day 3 transfer I am having lower back pain and it feels as though I am going to get my period soon. I have been trying to get pregnant since 1997 I finally gave up in 2006 and in 2009 got pregnant ( ectopic ) that news ripped my heart out I was 9 weeks when I found out. Has anyone had a succseful IVF day 3 transfer with 2 embryos? Also felt as though you were going to get your period? I just need a little hope.

I am not returning to the clinic I received my IVF treatment, I have decided to go back to my family Doctor and request someone new to perform a dye test on my left tube to verify if it is really blocked ( second opinion ) please pray for me that it isn't..... :)
My husband has had enough of watching me go through all this pain and doesn't want to pursue treatment any further so we are hope for the tube to be open so we can continue to try on our own.

You ladies are the best, I will keep you posted.

No need to apologize! That's what is wonderful about this forum... you are free to feel however you feel!  We all have our ups and downs, and when we're down, that's what the ladies here are for, to lift you up.  
Ok, first off... your never too old. : )  I do not know how old you are, but  I'm 44 and still trying! (we are getting ready to use donor embryos).  there are ladies on here that are 42 and over still trying on there own, and 1 lady, Ironworker, is 43()and just got pregnant on her own!  So, again, your never too old! :o)

You say you live in Ontario.  I know some others from Canada come to the US for treatment because they say it's cheaper??  I am on a forum for ashermans (adhesions in uterus) and I know a couple of ladies on there come to the US.  I don't know if a refund program would help you to be able to afford to try again?  Or maybe a shared risk program?  
Don't give up on your dream!  You can, and will get there!!! If you want to be a mom, there has to be a way!

Have Faith!!!!!!

Hugs!

you dont have to apologize for feeling let down. We all have been in your shoes. But remeber try to have faith.  Pray and ask god to help you find away. Maybe god is testing you to see how strong you are, are you going to give up or try to find away to get what you want. .Look in to grants, some Clinic might have a payment option.

thank you! and i sure will..

Thank you ladies for everything.

Yes my clinic had me on progesterone.
I live in Hamilton Ontario, I would love to try a new clinic but I have no funds left to try again and by the time I save the money again I will be to old, I may request another dye test to be sure my left tube is blocked and wasn't just having a spazum and continue trying on my own. However I don't have much faith in the tube being open because I also have endometriosis and that's what blocked my right tube and caused the ectopic.

I truly am sorry I know that all you ladies are going through fertility trouble as well and here I am with the poor me attitude.
mhv I hope all the best for you in the future and powerful5 when you finally get to meet your bundle of joy give her/him a kiss from me......

I am so sorry you got bad news.  Did you clinic have you on progesterone?  
We are here for support if you need us.  Please know that so many of us on here have done numerous transfers.  Some have become successful and some are still trying.  I hate to hear that you have given up.  I don't know where you live, but a change of clinic could mean all the difference in the world.  There is one lady on here that did 4 IVF's with 1 clinic, and got BFN's all 4 times... she switched to a new clinic and got a BFP the very first time.  
If there is anyway we can help please let us know!  
I have been on this site for about 1 1/2 years, still trying to get pregnant, and know that if it weren't for the support of the ladies on here, I would have given up.

I am sorry, I really wanted it to be positive for you. You are still in my thoughts and prays.

Dont give up, its something you really want there is always going to be obstacles. But it makes the end result so special. Makes you  appreciate it more

I started bleeding this morning, I guess I got my answer sooner then I expected.... :(

Well that's it for me I am done, I can not go through this anymore I need to face the fact that I will never be a Mom.
I tried and that's all I could do.

Thanks again and all the best to you.....

Though I would let you know I did a HPT this morning and it was a BFN.... :(  I know that this may not be the case but I feel as though it will be negative tomorrow when I get the results back. This really ***** I wanted and needed this so bad.

I didn't get any spotting with my IVF treatments and it seems all the positive result storie did...... All my hope is now gone.

Thanks for listening powerful5.

Glad I AM ABLE TO HELP

I dont mind at all, It Went very well only one Heart beat. The other sacs was empty, was a little disappointed, but very happy for my one little person.

My 2nd IVF i had 4 transferred back, 2 was not great, and the other 2 was okay. I did accupunture. I even did the whole eat fresh pineapple for a week. I figured hey I try anything.  We had no more money left. And I Prayed my butt off, for it to work.

I know its hard to have faith and be positive, but you really  have to try. Its easier said then done. Because when I started to see brown,  when i went to the bathrooM . I started to cry, I really broke down. But I did get a BFP in the end.

OMG you have no idea how much your reply means to me....okay maybe you do ...lol

I didn't have enough eggs to freexe either both times. The first time I had 5 eggs 4 of them fertilized 2 stopped growing on day 2 and the other 2 were transferred on day three, the Doctor said they were both good quality eggs but they must have stopped growing as well. Second time around I took DHEA for three month and Q10 vitamines and we got 6 eggs 1 fertilized on day 1 and then I got a call on day 2 telling me that another had fertilized but the first egg was at a 3 cell stage and the second at a 2 cell stage basicly telling me poor quality eggs ( I cried like a baby ). However on day 3 just before the Doctor transferred the eggs the embryoligist told him they both were at an 8 cell stage, so I am hanging on to a little luck maybe this is a good sign.

How did your ultrasound on Friday go??? If you don't mind me asking.

I really hope it is a BFP for you, as long as your period doesn't start there is hope. I didnt have any symptoms as well.


Our stories are so similiar its scary, We also spent all our last on IVF, now we are living paycheck to paycheck. But in the end its worth it.

My 2nd wass fresh I didnt have enough to freeze.

I am saying a pray for you, Please keep me posted. I believe its going to be positive.  

We are all here for you, if you need to vent we will listen. Its nice to have people who are going thru,or have been in the same predicament.

I am trying so hard to be positive..... :)

I go on Monday morning for BT I have never been more scared in my life. Today is day 9 ET and I have no symptoms of any kind I don't even feel as though I am getting my period anymore I am almost sure my test results will be a BFN. This is my last chance I lost my right tube with the ectopic pregnancy and my left tube is blocked IVF was my last hope. My husband and I spent our savings on these two IVF treatments theres nothing left to try again, I need this to work so bad.

Your second IVF was it fresh or frozen ET? I am so happy it worked for you this time around and please keep me posted I am curous as to how many heart beats you have...lol

Tridy good luck honey I hope you get a BFP as well, keep me posted on your results....

Try to be positive, I know its hard.

But on my 2nd Ivf I got a BFP. I did 3 day transfer both times. Both times I felt like my period was coming. The 2nd time I actually thought it was going to be BFN, because I started to see brown when I used the bathroom. So I started crying, I was depressed. But two days later I started to get happy, because my period never came. So I went to the doctor, then the nurse called and said it was BFP. Its was surreal, I still cant believe now and i am almost 7 weeks. I went the other day, and listen to the heartbeat. And it might be three. So Friday i am going back to see if i hear more heart beats.

I Will say a pray for the both of you.

Keep me posted, you are in my thoughts


I also had a ectopic pregnancy a few years back, didnt know I was pregnant until, I was admitted to the hospital with blood in my navel
