All the best xx

Thanks, Lenny. :)

BFN :( juniper can you please up me as waiting for AF?

I feel so lost, why aren't my embryos sticking. I've had the endo removed, and my hormone blood work is always great, my lining is perfect as my FS says. So honestly what else could be wrong that I am not getting pregnant?? I need some help girls :(

Kel I'm so so sorry, I honestly don't know why your embies are not sticking, i'm the same all my blood work and lining is perfect but cant fall pg its so frustrating
I honestly understand your frustration. What does your fs recommend? Sending you lots of :hug: thinking of you xxx

Sorry Kel. It is so hard to understand. I would speak with your FS about your options. I've been the same. Everything looks great then bfn. I'm now just doing everything my FS suggests. Losing weight, acupuncture, no wheat diet (acupuncturist suggested that), low GI foods...... The list could be endless I suppose.

Don't be hard on yourself. It's just an awful unexplainable experience xxx

Seems I'm off the round a bout.. Getting checked out for cancer :/

Big massive hugs kel xoxo it's just not fair! I don't understand any of this torture either.

And glorious, that is just not good! Please let us know how you are going and I pray it all turns out just fine xoxo


Afm I took another test this afternoon and it's only a teeny bit darker than yesterday lol and I swear my boobs arnt so sore, freaking ball of mess on the inside!
Might do a bt tommorow this is all too much!
But I did feel queasy on n off... Argh! I just need to graduate now it's been too many yrs of this!

Babydust to all :-) xox

So sorry Kel! Does your fs have any ideas on where to from here? Hoping you can get some answers soon & your much longed for BFP xxx

Glorious- I don't know what to say. You must have a million questions. I hope you have lots of support at home as well as here.

Glorious that doesn't sound good. Hoping they have caught it early & you have a speedy & full recovery xx

Thanks ladies, I haven't spoken to my FS yet I will go see him once my period starts and will go from there.

Kel, I'm sorry to hear it was BFN. There are a lot of things that can potentially prevent the embryo's success - embryo quality, clotting issues and immune issues are probably the main ones. In our case, it was primarily quality issues with some possible immune issues playing a less significant role...

Glorious, I'm so terribly sorry to hear you're in this situation! I hope it's all a false alarm and you get a clean bill of health. If it is cancer, then I hope they can defeat it quickly and easily. :goodluck:

Sarah, darker is darker. These early weeks are always stressful... :hug:

Kel, I'm so sorry sweetie :hug: I started off great with IVF (falling pg with each transfer, three times) then it all came crashing down. Out of the 3 pg, I have one DS here on earth, I am blessed and I'm very thankful for that. I just want a sibling for him. The last 2 transfers, BFN. The first one admittedly was a pretty poor looking embie (grade D from memory) but this last one was a 'picture perfect' one, grade A, no fragmentation, just perfect. Still, a BFN. I am about to have another FET with one of my last 2 embies, and I can't help but feel a bit flat.

Glorious, I'm also sorry to hear you're in this situation :hug:. I pray that all ends well for you hun, everything is tightly crossed x

Sarah, hang in there lovely, I really hope to see you graduate this time :crossfingers:

Hello to everyone else :)

AFM, plodding along, I think I'll have a scan/BT next week to pinpoint ovulation and see when transfer will be. Should be more excited.....but :dunno:

Thanks juniper & missb xo
Took another test this morning and it's lighter :-( .
Gearing up for the worst.
This was our last ivf attempt.
The one frosty left I feel will be wasted on me! Broken inside and out.
Sorry I'm not so sunny xoxo

Just a quick update from me as a bit out of it on painkillers...

Had the lap on Tuesday. No endo but lots of scarring and adhesions. My left tube was removed and sent for biopsy as it was "abnormal" - very inflamed and enlarged. It was completely stuck to the side of my uterus. There was also a lesion in my bladder which was removed and is being biopsied.

I came home last night after spending the night in complex care. I am very sore and tired and a bit upset.

Oh no Sarah, sometimes tests can do that, I hope it just did not register the hcg properly. FX hun it's still going well xxx

Me too missb :-( but my boobs are not very sore at all and it's like ground hog day all over :'( . Just numb.

Dear N2L you have been through an awful lot! Xoxo I hope all this will give you a better chance and some answers take it easy and try and think of it ad positive getting it all taken care of.

Hi Ladies,

Firstly Glorious so very sorry to hear about the possibility of cancer, I hope they are wrong and it's something else a lot less serious.
Wishing you all the best of luck, surround yourself with supportive positive people :) x

Sarah oh hun that just sucks I'm still hoping you get your BFP, as they says it's not over till the fat lady sings

N2L wow you have been through a lot with your surgery, wishing you a speedy recovery and hope you get some good news from the biopsies
take it easy x

Everyone else all the best with wherever you are at thinking of you all, I'm praying we see some good news soon on the forum

AFM - Harvest tomorrow morning, my first as you guys know so a little nervous but also excited Can't wait to see how many eggs we get

My thoughts are with you all- Glorious best of luck with the tests, N2L and Kel82 I'm sorry this is so hard for you too.
I have my ultrasound tomorrow to see if I have grown any follicles for an OPU.
This is our final try... our last cycle was meant to be our final but I ended up in emergency dept. then in surgery for another lap and hysteroscopy- ruptured endometrial cyst and they found another cyst and more endo.
This surgeon rated my chances as 'very slim'.
DH and I agreed that that cycle did not count so fingers crossed for this one.
Not really holding out much hope anymore- this is IVF cycle 10, no pg, no frosties- can't seem to get many follicles. We've created 8 embies from the 10 cycles but they just fragment :(
I'm kind of looking forward to getting off this rollercoaster by Christmas- God knows I need a drink!

I didn't see your post n2l, I'm sorry the surgery didn't go better. Sending you big hugs and healing vibes for your recovery. Bugger about losing the left tube, that must suck. Much love xxxxx

n2l i'm so sorry about your surgery everything crossed everything comes back ok and i'm really sorry about losing your left tube that must be hard, thinking of you
and sending you lots of :hug:

glorious hoping everything comes back normal for you as well and its not cancer sending you :hug:

Kel i'm so sorry about your bfp ttc sucks :comfort:

vd74 your chances may be slim but I'm praying you get your bfp, Good Luck :pray:

PositivelyTTC Good Luck tomorrow hope they get lots of eggies xxx

afm: another negative test so just waiting for af now should be here on sunday :wall:

So sorry Rai that this was not the moth for you :hug:

Good luck for tomorrow morning positively, you must be so excited and nervous at the same time. I hope everything turns out well and that you have a great early Christmas present in a couple of weeks.

You poor thing N2L, sorry to hear about losing your tube, I hope you are being well taken care of and that all the tests come back as normal as possible.

What a bummer Kel, sorry that this was not the cycle for you, as Juniper said there are lots of things that could be causing things to not work out, I hope your fs has some ideas and answers for you soon!

Sarah, don't give up hope yet hun, did you have your bt today? if not crossing fingers for tomorrow and I will be stalking you xx

Glorious, I cannot even begin to understand what you are going through, I hope its just a scare, but if not that it all gets treated asap and you are back on your feet in no time.

Miss B. I hope things start to look up for you, you have 2 little frosties waiting and I hope that one of them will be a gorgeous little bubba for you.

Hi everyone else!

Just about to start my stim cycle, my levels are finally ok today and I am praying for lucky number 3 stim cycle.

Sarah its not over yet don't give up you never know it may just have been that test praying everything is ok. When is your blood test?

Good luck Mrs OM with your cycle.

Hi Ladies, just wanted to jump in quickly and wish you all a very good day.

Rai so sorry you didn't get your BFP hope its around the corner for you

I started AF this afternoon so CD1 for me tomorrow thanks juniper, here we go again, 2 embabies left so this will be last transfer then I am not sure so I need to try EVERYTHING, I am going to oh crazy with all the old wives tales etc :)

Rai, it will depend how much was in your undies, (TMI) sorry, but I reckon since it was most probably this afternoon I would class tomorow as cd1.

Positively, congrats on the eggies!

Rai, sorry to hear AF started. I'd probably call tomorrow CD1. I'll pop you in the list that way for now, so just let me know if you decide to call today CD1 and I'll change it. :hug:
