I havent posted for a while b/c I needed some mental 'time off' from thinking about IVF etc after my first cycle in May. We had a collection of 4 eggs from 5 follies, all of which fertilised. We transferred two on day 2, and froze two. It appears that I had a short term implantation as I did have an increased HCG temporarily, but it all went away. I was surprised at how sad I was, as rationally I know that many pregnancies end before our period is even due, but the difference was that this time I KNEW
We waited a month, and then startd another fresh cycle, keeping two embies on ice. I am 39 and have had one VERY high FSH reading, so time is of the essence, and we were advised to try again with fresh. Last cycle I didnt do HPT at all, but this time I have been, because I wanted to KNOW what was going on inside. This cycle, we had seven follies, for seven eggs, but only four fertilised, and one didnt go on to develop further. We had a grade 2 embie frozen, and had assisted hatching and a day three transfer of the two best embies. I started doing HPT 4 days later so I had abaseline of negatives, and by saturday had a positive HPT. It was positive on sunday and again this morning, but the line looked fainter today, and I am so scared that this means I am losing this implantation again. I had my BT this am (one day early) as my shifts make it impossible to get in tomorrow morning, so I am now just waiting to hear the inevitable news.
I am so sad. I KNEW that there was a high risk that these would not implant too, and I knew the risk of doing the HPT was to 'see' that happen (if that makes sense), but I really did feel hopeful once I saw the 'thin blue line'.
SO anyway, I just needed to 'talk' about it, because although there is an inevitability to what appears to be happening, I cant help hoping that someone out there has had similar experience but still got a BFP with their blood tests.
hun, i'm hoping that thing go well for you with your BT results this afternoon. there is no advice i can offer you, but i want to send you huge cyber hugs and bucket loads of stick vibes.
So far so good with the results today. I have a BFP for now, and we will wait and see what transpires over this week. I have another BT on friday to see if the levels are rising.
What I am really encouraged about this time is that my clinic like an hcg >50 on day 14, and today was day 13 for me and it was 87. Now although I KNOW this doesnt mean I am out of the woods, I am SO MUCH happier and hopeful that this little blighter will hang on..... keep it all crossed
