I have no answers for you, but as you know when you go through the initial IVF information session, it takes heaps of things before an embryo becomes a viable pregnancy. Temperature, hormones, thickness of lining, optimal embryo etc etc of course they check some of these things, but there is always the unknown, like the cell division of the embryo, whether it will keep going or whether it will implant, it has its own life force I guess you could say, and beyond what they can detect such as fertilisation and division to a certain point, they cannot detect anything further, there is always an unknown. I know its frustrating, but my best advice is to be patient and remember that they are doing everything they can to achieve a pregnancy/live birth for you.

It took us a very long time to conceive our son, so I know exactly what you are going through and how very frustrating it is, because once they put back your embryo, you are technically pregnant, but then to be told in two weeks that you aren't, is just a massive blow. Its just so hard to comprehend why it wouldn't have turned into a pregnancy.

Can I make a suggestion? I have heard that in some clinics they are actually recommending that patients go to see an acupuncturist whilst they are undergoing treatment. The acupuncturist provides treatment with both acupuncture and herbs/vitamins which is a whole body process. Im not saying its guaranteed, but if it is going to produce optimal conditions for achieving a pregnancy, then I reckon give it a go. I am going to see one ATM and already she has given me back my "cycle". Put it this way - it can't hurt...
