    Well girls, as expected it's a
    So, the embryo implanted but didn't stick around according to the results of my last two BT's. I'll be speaking to my Dr about low progesterone next week. I'm sure my LP is too short and I shouldn't have had bleeding 4 days before my scheduled BT.
    So, onward and upward to our FET next. DH and I have discussed this at length and we are going to aim to transfer 2 embies this time.

    Nic, sorry AF showed her face again! It's sad when we get excited over things like a new thermometer isn't it?! lol I think I'm due for one myself.

    Megan, I'm sorry pet. It's disappointing but I'm glad that at least you got some information from this cycle that will be helpful for fine tuning the next one. If it is a LP problem, this is so easily rectified. Hopefully this will mean you have success next time. Take care of yourself.

    You too Nic. I know how disappointing it can be.

    Jane, the MS is hard to take isn't it but it is a relief too to know that the hormones are working. Ginger ale is a good friend to cultivate at this time (if you like ginger). Hope you can get lots of rest and eat well when you feel able to.

    Loula, good luck for this upcoming cycle.

    Hope all you other lovely ladies are well.

    Thanks girls...I think i dealt with it all last week when the bleeding started, so I'm doing ok now.

    Melbo, how do they go about fixing the LP problem? I'll be asking my doc next week but I am trying to find out as much info before I go as I can!

    Megan, if you are on cycle, the treatment might mean something basic like starting progesterone right after ovulation just to make sure you have enough to carry you through. Hope you have a fruitful discussion with your doc next week.

    I was on progesterone this time around from the day of transfer and unfortunately didn't make a difference (AF arrived at 11DPT) so maybe the dose needs to be increased. Lucky me! lol I felt awful on that stuff for the first week! I just hope the dr is going to be pro active and look at new ways of doing things until we finally get it right.

    Hi Ladies,

    I am new to the forum and just thought I woul dpop in and say Hi.

    Firstly congratulations to Jane - your news really is fantastic and gives other like me such hope. well done.

    Megan - so sorry for your news, glad you feel not so bad and had managed in some way to prepare yourself.

    I am on my own journey at present, just been thru my 7th Full Stim cycle and had my EPU last Fri with 14 eggs retrieved (Had 6 empty follicles????????) anyway had 10 fertilise which is great news. Am going for a Blast transfer on Wednesday which is very exciting - and then of course the dreaded TWW. Actually can anyone tell me with a bblastie (5d) if you still need to wait the full 2wks b4 doing a HPT??

    Excited about the support you all offer each other in a forum like this. IVF makes you feel like an island......

    Good Luck lovelies - you all have amazing stories of strength and resilience..

    Welcome Shaz Sorry, I don't have the answer to your question regarding do a HPT earlier when you have had a blastie transferred. I'm sure someone here will know the answer for you though!
    All the best for your cycle and especially with transfer on Wednesday. As for the TWW, make sure to pop in here and keep us up to date with your progress! Plus, I think it helps to pass the time a bit!!
