Fergie,

Boy, do I know how you feel......it always, always seemed like it was easy for others to get pregnant and to watch and hear this is not pleasant at all - harder when it is a close friend or relative.

But the other ladies are correct - getting pregnant from IVF in your first go is very rare... so do have hope that is certainly CAN and WILL happen.

It took us 7 embryo transfers for this one to stick (I am now 28 weeks pregnant and feel very blessed). My first stim cycle I had 7 embryos, transferred one at a time over 8 months, NO LUCK. then a break, then another stim cycle. 5 embryos, but only ONE survived to a 4 day embryo and this was the ONE !! I am 38 years old too, so it can happen, I am thinking of you.......

Great to change any bad habits, like drinking and cut down on caffiene, exercise daily and reduce stress levels is important.

What worked also for me? Accupunture!! particularly around the day of egg pick up, transfer and 3-4 days after when implanation may occur........ find a good accuputurist and try it - I believe it worked for me!!
