Munchkin: bad history, that's when mine tend to stop developing or being behind but don't let my paranoia influence you if you wanted to wait until 8 weeks
Munchkin I had scans for each of my cycles @ 6 weeks. They will certainly be able to see the sac & if there is anything in there. Have to do a repeat @ 8wks to hear the hb but I would much rather know sooner rather than later.
Hi minniemouse! You mustn't have much longer to go. Hope everything is going well.
Thanks guys. If my hcg is still rising like it should be on Wednesday I will just wait it out. My husband and I are both young so i'm thinking we shouldn't have any problems.. Hoping!! x
Congrats t-hopes on 18 eggs & 13 fertilised. So they'll biospy on Tuesday? We only lost a few from day 1 to 3, so things are looking great for you. Good luck! I was really sore this egg pick up (34 eggs) & they gave me pethadine on the day which was awesome & panadine forte for at home & I certainly needed for atleast 4 days. Take it easy & relax as much as you can with a little one. Lots of water sustagen & powerade helped alot, I didn't eat much either. Did you have OHSS with DS?
Munchkin I would def get another beta for peace of mind, I'm sure it's all okay but to save worrying. And having to wait until 8 weeks is torture! I'm sure we went between 6 & 7 weeks with DD.
Thanks for thinking of me girls, I am still very sad & depressed. I'm not sure what to do with myself. I had a little bleed last night & thought it was the start but nothing since. I just want it to hurry up so I can move on. I would have much rather a failure than this, as we would have been on the road to FET by now. Will see what FS says this Thursday, I have a feeling ill be going on the pill for a month as I don't ovulate regularly. Such an unfair process this IVF journey. I feel we need to take a break for emotional reasons, but I also don't want to wait.
Elarwood- I will be going Wednesday or else I will drive myself crazy! I'm so sorry you have to go through this, I can't imagine how difficult it is. I hope you can start to look forward in the near future... You sound as though you are happy with your FS, but have you considered trying a new clinic? It might help to get a second opinion/perspective for your next cycle when you are ready. Thinking of you, Take care of yourself x
Glad to hear, Munchkin. i'm sure everything is going well, i was so naive on our first cycle & we were extremely lucky to get DD on our first transfer in 2010. So having to go though 4 full cycles & 6 transfers & still no closer has been a shock to us. I'm only 30, fit, healthy etc so I honestly don't understand why we are having so much trouble this time round. This is actually our third FS & 2nd clinic. I liked my first FS but he was so conservative & kept saying its a numbers game. I sort out a second opinion who tested me for absolutely everything & at first thought it was thyroid or celiac & after seeing numerous specialists & further testing nothing came of it. We were lucky enough to get into our 3rd FS who has very long waitlists & very highly respected & know he will do absolutely everything to get us over the line. And while it absolutely sucks to have a chemical/miscarriage on a cgh cycle after thinking it was the answer to our problems, I guess we still have 5 others to try & a whole lot of immune treatments to try just in case. We will also transfer 2 from now on, and for once feel comfortable with possibility of twins. We were always dead against it. I honestly think if we went through this to get our DD there's no way we'd do it a second time. My heart is so sad & I don't know how other ladies who've been through so much more do it as I'm at breaking point after 18 months.
Elarwood, that is so hard to believe, you sure have been through a lot & at such a young age. You sound determined though & while it's hard when you are going through it, there's no denying the end result is worth it. It's just so hard at the time! X
Sorry just a quick update as I'm on my phone but just gotta call from clinic and all 13 are still fighting strong 9 of them are 4cell + and 4 of them are 2cell +
Love to you all, especially you elarwood, lots of love and hugs to you xxxxxxxx

Great news T-hopes. Hoping you get a lovely embryo for transfer tomorrow. I had my beta today and it's still on the rise- sitting at 2400 now. The nurse seemed happy so trying not to read too much into it. Will just have to wait for my scan.
Congrats t-hopes on 8 being sent for testing! You will definitely get some normals :-) we had 6 out of 15 which is 40%. Good luck with transfer & thanks for thinking of me.
Munchkin - great news hcg is rising nicely - hope the time passes quickly for you scan.
I'm getting there slowly. No bleeding yet which is getting frustrating as I'd really like to move on. I stopped meds a week ago & was expecting a bleed by now. Seeing FS tomorrow, will see what he says. I just want to be on the road of trying again, it helps me to move on knowing we are doing something productive to get our baby.
