Hey ...did go in for my beta and it was 1...I had a feeling that I wasn't preggo, but I was still hoping. It was been a very hard weekend. I was an emotional wreck, but I'm just glad I know now. Should start AF tomorrow or the next day...My first appointment with the re is this week...Guess after 18months of trying ...we can now start all over. We are willing to go for IVF at least once...My insurance pays for it the first time. Our chances to have a child on our own are so slim because of my dh's very low count as well as my issues, but we want to try once at least.

So I cancelled my app. for my beta this am.  I KNEW a nurse would call me back saying that I REALLY needed to come in even though I've taken 4 HPT's since last Thursday w/BFN's!
I called her back & said it's not worth it for me to drive down there (1 hour away) & pay the $86.00 for it so I can confirm my BFN!
Anyway, I had a long conversation w/her & I told her I felt that there could really be something inside going on (scarring in uterus, tube) & she said well, I can have the Dr call you & you guys can discuss this etc...
I told her sure, but when I brought it up to him LAST month, he made me feel stupid!  Said, "I'm sure your fine, your 40 now"  She remembers too, cuz she was in the room w/us!
My RE is not the most gentle, or kindest out there I'm sure.  But I hear sh's pertty good, thats why I went to him.
She said to me, it's most likely my age.  MAYBE I am totally in denial, BUT given my history, 3 first time tries perfect pg.'s, 1 blighted ovem last October ( & I had a HUGE cysty at the time) & 1 missed mc last February, I just think that w/5 or more eggs that ovulated in these 2 cycles I did w/meds would have had at least ONE fertilized......even if it ended in a mc!!!! Not saying thats what I wanted to happen, just saying THAT would make more sense to me!
IDK, I go back n forth on what I should do!  I wish I had a personal geenie to tell me what I should do! :D
Ay suggestions out there?  IVF won't happen for us, besides being intense, it would be like $15,000+
My mom had be @ 381/2 & doesn't even know HOW she got pg! LOL  they weren't even trying!
My grandma had a baby @ 401/2 & that aunt had a baby @ almost 41...all w/no meds of course, many MANY moons ago! LOL
So I'm THINKING genetics plays a bit of a role here too!

Hmmm that is interesting! I'm gonna have to research it!


Ummm I'm feeling ok...like you I have my ups & downs... I cried it all out the other night, so I'm just ready to try it again! This will most likely be our last month though.. My DH is getting out of the military Nov 9th & we plan on moving to MS where we purchased our house last year.. So 1. We won't be near my RE and 2. We won't have the same INS so I really really praying it will work this up coming month!!!

As for my plan.... Well pray I get AF in the next few days so I can call my RE to get the show on the road again! Since I only had one good sized follie (tons on small ones) I want to up my dosage of gonal-f.. My RE had me do 100mg clomid & 75iu gonal-f last month...his reasoning for that was because I had so many small follies at my baseline he was affraid that just gonal-f alone would produce too many large follies! So the clomid I guess was to even it out! But to me producing only 1 good sized one is NOT even!! So I had told him if this month didn't work I wanted to just try gonal-f alone & possibly increase the dose. So that's my plan!!!

I'm not 100% sure, I just spent about an hour reading a whole thread I found on here about it though.  
It's a hormone & IK they are doing studies on it but I guess it can help improve quality & quantity of follies.  I guess its best to take it for at least for 4 months to get the best results though.
It just seems interesting.  As for me though, I am also calling my OB & am requesting some further testing on me ie HSG

How are you feeling?  What is your plan?

Hi. I had HCG shot on 7/31 and IUI on 8/1/09. I have taken 2 HPT and both were negative. I was supposed to go in to doctor's office on 8/17 for blood test to see if I am pregnant. My nurse said my progesterone levels were really high and the doc said she would be very suprised if I was not pregnant. But then I started spotting a couple of days ago and got AF yesterday. Could I still be pregnant?? Why would my doctor say that and raise my hopes if there wasn't a strong chance? I have been crying all weekend and am very upset. My mom said she had her period for almost 3 months and she was pregnant..and my grandmother had her period the whole time being pregnant with one of my aunts. Everyone has told me that taking the HPT won't show a positive as it is too early to test. I don't know what to do. I am supposed to call the doctor tomorrow..but I feel so low and depressed about the whole thing right now. But could someone please tell me if I have the slightest chance of being pregnant?? Thanks!!
