alikat - I'm sorry... I really don't know - you may never know... that's what really sucks about it.... I never knew for sure if I had a chem pg, but I knew I was pregnant at one point. It just made the most sense, so that's what I assume happened to me. I really hope your doctors can come to some kind of a conclusion though - because you are right, it is so much easier to know.
candie429 - I'm going to try not to help you get your hopes up :) but it sounds promising! I hope you come back here tomorrow with some good news! Lots of luck to you!
Yikes! I can't keep up with you all!
G_S - Hope your ultrasound went well. Keep us posted.
Alikat - Again, I am so sorry for the emotional roller coaster you've been riding. I hope you get it all figured out soon.
Jen023 - Glad that your HSG is over with. Hope it gives you success this time around!
Babyhope - Welcome! I'm sure you'll find a lot of support here. Good luck to you.
Sarah9010 - 4 follies sounds great! I hope it works for you this month.
Wannababe - Sorry to hear that you've been struggling. We can all relate. I'm sure if you don't get a BFP soon, the doctors will be able to help.
Heather 5 - I think I saw somewhere that you started Femara this month. I hope it's the magic potion for you!
To anyone I may have missed, best of luck to you all!! Even though I haven't been writing too often lately, you are always in my thoughts and prayers.
As for me, I'm 14dpo today. I have never made it this far, but I'm too scared to get my hopes up again. I think if AF doesn't show today, I'll definitely have to test tomorrow morning.
SamLB - I know what you mean about trying not to get your hopes up. Hopefully this will be the time it pays off!
thanks, maybe that is it, but how will i know? that would at the very least make me feel a little more sane about the last week.
I had, what I think was a chemical pregnancy, twice - doctors just said I miscarried... I had a normal period, but then towards the end I had positive hpt's... blood tests were positive one day but negative the next... that's how fast my levels went down... not entirely the same as what you are going through, but similar... the not knowing is absolutely the worst! Just try to hang onto hope... and if it was a chemical pg, that doesn't necessarily mean something is wrong with you, it just happens and a lot of the time can't be explained. Praying for you - and hoping you get some answers soon!
Oh, I see... Well, I hope his next test comes out OK then. You know what, though? If you do have to go with the sperm retrieval process, you may be able to do an IUI instead of IVF. It's much cheaper and less invasive...but of course, the success rate is not as high, so you may have to have several IUIs before you get pregnant. Just a thought...
Still crossing my fingers that the next test will be OK, though, and you won't have to worry about that...and you never know, maybe you'll get your BFP this month!
Hi Heather, Thanks for the welcome and the luck!
I'm saying I have little hope because my DH had two undescended testicles that weren't corrected until he was 10 years old so from what I've read on the internet there is little hope of conceiving naturally. He had a sperm count done that came back inconclusive so he must go for another one. My own doctor said that the fact that it was inconclusive may mean there is some sperm there ( good for IVF later ). We have been trying for about 8 mths now.
