I wasn't successful. The 1st blood test showed that I had hcg level of 23mIu/ml, 12 days after the embryo transfer. That was quite low so I had to retake the blood test 3days later. Those results showed hcg level of 5miu/ml which means it went down because I lost the pregnancy. I started spotting day 14 and had cramps the entire day. The next day while showering, a little blood clot the size of a small cherry fell out. I knew it was the embryo. I continued to spot for 4days. On the 5th day, I felt extremely painful contractions and passed a huge clot. Was so big and gross. I'm still having extremely painful and bleeding (not that heavy) at day 9. Doctor said I had a chemical pregnancy. I'm so depressed because the process was so expensive and I had to drive for 8hrs to and from the clinic every other day plus go to work for the treatment. PRAY for me please. I need funds for the 2nd try and I don't want to lose my job because I can't get too much time off.
Hi, im 26 n I had two embryos trasfered on oct 7,2013 and scheduled my beta on coming mondy the 21. Today was my day 11 and i did htp yesterday and today both with negatives :( im so upset and depressed, lost all my hopes. Idk if there are anymore chances for me to get a postive result or not.
I had a transfer of three good quality embies on day 3. That was 10/11. Since then I took hpt - three times all negative. But I am still waiting and hoping that it was too early. Pleeease reassure me it was too early, I am going crazy. My blood work is on 10/26.
hi girls I am new aswell. had my day 10 hpt toady it was negtive. all my hopes are gone. is there still a chance that I am preg?have my preg test tommrrow.am very scared that it is going to be negative again.
Im back again, did my transfer yesterday, had assisted hatching and giving myself blood thinning shoots.
Had 2 embies transferred.
How did it go with you ? What is FET ?
On July 5th I did a 5 day fresh transfer of 2 embies. Everything was perfect with my levels. We thought for sure this was a good to go thing. On day 10 I took a HPT and it was negative. I went for my BETA 3 days later and it was 118 then 228 48 hours later. At 6 weeks I m/c both babies. I k now how you feel. But, I went right back after it and we are now on our 2nd try but with an FET. I t has not even been a month since my m/c and my RE is telling me this is the best time to try again. FET is more relaxing and less hormonal than the 1st IVF fresh cycle. This time, I am going to wait until my BETA so I dont make myself sick with anticipation or worry. I wish all the best luck. I know its hard, I'm there too. :)
Im sorry to say that it didnt work for me this time.
But Im back on track, and going for the second try straight away.
My doctor said its fine if Im mentally up to it, which I am.
So in 2 weeks I start my meds again. Im wondering if anyone has some good ideas about vitamins or food that would help.
Before the first one, I took a lot of icelandic herbs, vitex, **** quai and folic acid.
Had no coffee, alcohol or strong food and did acupuncture regularly.
Any suggestions ?
And how did it go for you sarbear11, I really hope you had a positive result, please let me know !
All the best to all of you trying

How did your beta go??????????????????
Mine is on Tuesday.
I hope you got your BFP!
My beta test is tomorrow.
Yes, I noticed about the 3 and 5 day transfer, but I have read comments from doctors that the uterus is a better place for the embryos to grow than in the lab.
Also this clinic where I go to is in Iceland and has a very high success rate, so I trust them completely.
When is your beta ? Best of luck to you !

I too had an 8/13 transfer, but of day 5 embryos. I tested negative on the hpt until 8/23.
all previous hpt before them were negative. sometime implantation doesn't occur as soon in some as it does in others. My beta test done today was 848. I hope your news is good- don't make yourself crazy worrying. Best of luck.
When is your beta test? I also had a two day transfer. Seems like alot of other people have 3 or 5 day transfers, so I was glad to see that you did a 2 day as well!
Best of luck to you! You're baby will be so lucky to have a mommy like you!
thank you so much everybody.
You have no idea how much this helps, now I kind of think it can go either way :)
And by the way, Im 40 and doing this on my own with a donor.
Havent been so lucky to find a man in my life, so I decided to go on my own, rather than loose my chances to be a mother in this life.
All the best of luck to everybody

I am 9dp3dt and it is killing me not to test. These ladies are right don't make your sick with worry on the results of a HPT, many of them don't register until you are 25-50 ml depending on the HPT. Wait for the beta.
Good Luck.
I actually tested the day of my beta, and the hpt was BFN... had the beta about 45 minutes later, and BFP -- DD is now 2!!! Good luck!!!
I haven't had my beta yet- just had my transfer on Thursday (8/21), but I think you probably tested way too early. You have to give yourself time for your hcg level to go up enough to register with a urine test. That is why they do a blood test instead of a urine test at the dr. office.
Hope this helps. Stay positive and good luck! :)
I have tested on the day before my BETA and got NEG and then got BFP w/ BETA. Don't give up yet.
No a 2 day !
Thank you for your good thoughts, how did it go for you ?
Was this a day 3 transfer?
I did not test before my beta but I just wanted to wish you luck and a positive blood test in 3 days.
