May IVF cycle support

[tryingfor6years]

Anyone in an IVF cycle that just started or starting in May? Why not have a chat/support group to keep each other going?? My embryo transfer should be around May 10th... Would love to share and have some support along the way. This is my last chance with a fresh cycle (using a donor this time) so I"m getting nervous. Thanks!!!

Hang in there! I'm right there with you.  Don't give up hope.  I have 1 more blood draw tomorrow to confirm that I am in fact miscarrying (even though I can already tell that I've lost all of them). My numbers went from 777 on the 1st, to 699 on the 3rd to 412 on the 4th. I can just imagine how low the number is going to be tomorrow. Are you planning on trying again?  I took a nice long break from my 1st miscarriage before making the decision to try again. The break really did me some good. I started eating better and started working out. Even though I only lost 6 pounds, I felt so much healthier going into this cycle. Just disappointing for me too that I did all these good things this time around to only be given a glimmer of hope to only have that taken away, again.  Hang in there. You know we are all here for you.

I lost it.  The dr's office called Friday-beta dropped from 429 to 74.  Absolutely devastating.  Good luck to everyone.

I've been wondering how you're doing since it seems like you haven't posted in a while. Can't wait to hear your update later today! Best wishes for good looking embryos!

My RE office only speaks from the heart and doesn't give false hope. They are all very sweet and supportive and I love them to death. I'm still not convinced that 1 has stuck.  I know they say they aren't concerned with the amount of bleeding I'm having, but I am. It's WAY more than what I normally get as a period, but I know that can be because of the Lovenox and baby aspirin I'm on but the blood is bright red! If it remained always with a brownish tint to it I don't think I would be as concerned.  It remains bright red all day and then by the time I get home from work it's starts to subside a little bit and then has a brownish tint.  This morning when I went to the bathroom for the 1st time after waking up, there was a nice amount of blood but it was more brown. I can't get too excited because yesterday morning the bleeding completely stopped for about an hour! When I went to the bathroom and wiped, there was NOTHING on the toilet paper! I was thrilled that maybe that was the end of it but by the time I got to work, the bleeding started again like clockwork. I really can't imagine that 1 has stuck. I'm prepared for bad news on Monday after I get my blood drawn. I just wish I didn't have to wait all day for the results.  I have the blood drawn around 8am and I know the office can look up the results starting at around 1, but they won't start calling patients until around 4pm after the doctor has reviewed the results and given his recommendations.  It's so hard to stay positive.  I'm staying off my feet the entire weekend. Maybe that will help with the bleeding?  RE told me on Thursday to take it easy and stay off my feet as much as I can, so since I don't have to work the weekends, my plan is to be a couch potato and relax on between the couch and my bed.  Hopefully the bleeding starts to subside.

Thank you all for your love, prayers and support!
