Miscarriage after ivf at 4 weeks

Hi, I had my first ivf cycle in Dec. Implanted two embryo and had Pos test of the 22. On new years eve without warning I bleed and had complete M/C comfirmed yesterday. My husband and I talked about trying again using fresh cycle like this time but am so afraid of going through same thing again and looseing the baby again. Our Dr. suggested trying embryo adoption but these are hard to come by and the list is long. It could take up to a year for this and we are 44 yrs old.  Will it be easier to concive a second time and what are the chances of a repeat miscarriage??? Can anyone advise or help.

I am so sorry...  I know how disappointing it is. The good news is that you got pregnant.  I did my 1st IVF cycle last Feb, got pregnant and m/c at about 4 weeks too. I was so discouraged.  My RE told me it was a very good sign that it took and he had no doubt that a second treatment would work.  He was right - my 2nd cycle resulted in twins.  I did lose one of the babies at about 7 weeks but I am 15 wks pregnant.  Did they give you a reason why you may have m/c? Honestly, I am not familiar with an embryo adoption but I just wanted to share my experience and give you hope.  There are alot of ladies on this forum that have been through the same with joyous outcomes.  Good Luck!!!!

I had a miscarriage after IVF 2 years ago


it was svery painful and disconcerting

BUT I had a successful pregnancy the next transfer and I am pregnant again !!

Be patient - BUT please get on the list for embryo adoption.  These little ones deserve a chance atlife

I am so sorry to hear of your loss.  Not the best new year you have had I imagine.  I too had my 1st ivf in Oct. got the bfp, then miscarried on thanksgiving with 21 people at my house for dinner.  I still have not gotten over it but we are trying again at the end of January.  I know it is so hard to go thru the ivf cycle, get the best news of your life, and then lose it.  I was very discouraged and scared to try again but you have to.  I am 39 and have no children (married 19 years).  My 1st IVF cycle I only developed 4 follicles but they all turned out to be high ranking embies.  My RE transferred all four, one took, but didn't stay.   He has now upped my stims to help me make more so I hope that works out so I will have the opportunity to freeze some incase try #2 fails.  Hang in there, you have support here.  Everyone keeps saying IVF takes a few tries usually so give it at least one more try.  I hope you do have a Happy Year!

I can't thank you all enough for the support, it helps.  I still can not stop crying and know it will take time. I was wondering and I know this is far fetched and really out there. but my dr. suggested embryo adoption. I checked into it and the list is at least a year. Maybe someone who has had a successful preg. and has eggs frozen could consider donateing some??? I almost feel dumb but I have to try everything I can. Would really appreciate some input. Thanks girls.

How long did you have to wait to try again after you M/C.  I m/c new years eve and I know it has not even been a week but I just cant seem to quit crying. Dr. said af would start in 2-3 days but havent seen it yet.  I am so ready to start over like right now. I feel like i am in a fog all the time now.  Last night my left side was hurting so bad I could not get out of the bed. But this morning it had stopped. Is that normal after miscarriage? Thanks so much for just being there to listen.

i totally understand ur pain and your concern  as i went thru it muself a month ago:(  I know what does it mean to go thru all that proces. I got pregnant with the first try of IVF  cycle.I waz  so happy and never thought of misscarrage.May 25th waz our fifth aniversary
of our marrige and i unfotunately i spended at the ER and i got   the awful news of a miscarrage (miscarriage) at 5weeks.I went thru the worst pain in my life.When i went to the doctor he told me same thing that getting pregnant is a very goog sign as i do believe that is true. unfortunately i dont know anything about embryo adoption but im sure they know what they are doing.The only advice that i have for you is that the only reason thats going to prevent both of us from having a baby is if we stop trying.Please keep ur faith and pray.Igonna be praying for you too. MAY GOD BLESS YOU

I've had 2 failed IVFs since 2008. In 2009, we went for embryo adoption. The first try was negative, the second was positive, but I miscarried last week on 7 weeks. My husband & I are devastated. How do we come to terms with this and should we try once more? I just cannot go through yet another disappointment and hormone treatment if there is no way that this is going to work.

I miscarried at 7weeks and half after our first cycle on IVF. Both my husband and I were absolutely devastated and I am still really hurt. Because of my age  , the doctors transferred only 1 embryo back in my uterus, despite both my husband and I wanting two..The doctor said that I am still really young and he is pretty sure that the next cycle should work. On our first cycle we managed to have six embryo frozen and the doctor said we should use them in our next cycle.My husband and I would like to try again , but worry about going through the disappointment once more. I so want to be a mother..has anyone had frozen embryo transferred? Did it work?

My wife and I have done 3 IVF cycles.  2 fresh and 1 frozen (Fresh, Frozen, Fresh).  We have one 4 year old daughter that we concieved naturally.  After we had her we tried for 2 years and could not get pregnant.  Our last time was a fresh cycle and we got a POS test result after 2 weeks.  We were so happy.  On week three we went to the fertility dr and had a sonogram done and the tech didnt see anything.  The next day our dr called saying her numbers were dropping and he wanted more bloodwork done.  The next day he confirmed that we had a miscarriage.  It was very sad because we tried for so long and finally got pregnant only to have a miscarriage.  My question is this: our insurance doesnt cover IVF anymore.  It was only covered for 3 times.  We used fresh eggs this last time and had the remaining eggs frozen.  They were 5 day eggs.  Since the eggs took would it be a good idea to use the eggs we have frozen since it will be cheaper to do instead of a fresh cycle again? Please help us out

My freind is doing IVF she had two embryos  implanted on the 9 of march 2011 on sunday 20Th she started to have discharge which was of brownish colour. Then monday morning she started to bleed red (her period was due that day) , she is also on progesterion and a blood thining agent today being so worried she took a home pregnancy test which came back negative. She is to go for her Hcg blood test tommorrow but not feeling very positive, my question to everyone is have you ever experienced this and still remaind pregnant and if a M/c  had happened was there any sign in your discharge eg:tissue or clots

thanks heaps wish you all the very best
