hi everyone,

i too suffer from endo. i had a lap in feb 2004 and was told i severve endo and polyps removed. i fell pregnant 3 months later after ttc for 2 years.
i started ttc in june 2006 when my dd was 18 months thinking it would be easy! little did i know that this time would be even harder.
i spent last year ttc with fs. 8 months on clomid trying naturally, another lap to remove large chocolate cyst, and 4 months of iui's. nothing worked. while doing all this i saw a naturapath, did chinese medicine and had accupuncture. still nothing.

i quit my job in january thinking maybe the stress was having some effect on things. then in June i started my first ivf. everything went so well. 12 eggs, 6 fertilised, 2 x 4 celled embies transfered and then the tww. i had some swelling and pain on the first week, but then it turned into "prenant" feelings. saw boobs, nausea, tired all the time and weeing.

i got my result on wednesday. i was not expecting what i was about to hear, as i was positive that i was pregnant. the nurse told me that i had been pregnant at some stage as my hcg level was 9? what did that mean. i was so confussed. she said that the embryo had tried to attach but had come away. that this level of hcg was too small to be considered viable. i stopped the crinone and all my symptoms went away. i am now waiting for Af.
has anyone ever had this happen before? i wish i was told , that i would understand.
i keep thinking that maybe i was pregnant and shouldnt have stopped the crinone. i have read on several web sites that women have gone on to have healthy babies and have started off with a really low level. As long as it the level starts to double.
well thanks for reading my ranting. i am off to see the pyc on monday so hope she can help.
