Failed IVF thinking about FET
I just finished my first IVF cycle and got a negative yesterday. I am so sad and feel so empty right now. I have an appt. with my RE next week. We have 4 frozen embryos, so I am thinking about FET. Does anyone have any advice or comments about this. How long did you wait in b/t IVF and FET? Did FET work? How many did you transfer? Any advice would be great. I just feel so lost right now.
Thanks, Jesssica

I am sorry that it didn't work the 1st time. We recently adoped 6 frozen embryos. Only 4 survived the thaw and then only 2 were good enough for tranfer. We did 2, but they would have done 3 if they had made it. The max in most cases with my dr is 3. He did say he would consider 4 with me considering my long history of infertility and loss.
I did get pg from the FET, but lost it a week later. They said to have 1 natural cycle then I could start the meds for another FET cycle. We decided to take and extra cycle. Mainly for financial reasons then do one the following cycle.
Again I am sorry.

Jess, I am sorry about the BFN...however you do have frozen embies which many of us arent even lucky to have....definitely go for it when you're ready...and good luck!
Thank you so much for your words of encouragement.
ezra16 I didn't have any bleeding. The retrieval and transfer went perfect. I just don't understand what happened.

Absolutely dont give up, your still very young and it will happen. Did you experience any bleeding etc? At least you have 4 embryos left. That's better than having to start from scratch.
Good Luck

Don't feel bad, you are not the first one on this situation.My ivf didn't work either and i had no embryos frozen so now i have to start from scratch.If you want you can start with your next period it's all up to you.And there are some women in here that the frozen cycle give them e positive.You are still young and it will work.Good luck
