Anyone doing FET/IVF in Jan 2013 till everyone's BFP (Everyone Welcome)

[Babiesimready]

Lotus - Oops on dropping the much needed valium....but I am glad everything worked out. Are you doing bed rest?

mells - good luck tomorrow!

babies - I see you did a surgery for adhesions. How did you know you had them?

I had a complex myomectomy to remove huge fibroids and I had one of the worse surgeons ever who didnt use an adhesion barrier after my surgery. Reason I chose her in the first place was because she was one of the few surgeons that could perform a non invasive procedure called MRgFUS at that time and I was lucky she was in my city but she said the fibroids were too large and the only option was an open myomectomy.

After the surgery, I was in horrible pain for a whole year that I had to be on constant vicodin and I visited the ER uncountable times...worst days of my life. The adhesions were too much that all my organs were stuck together and I was constantly constipated. The only way out was the davinci surgery in which I also lost a fallopian tube in the process but I;m glad the pain is over and now I was lucky to even still have my uterus. I'm thankful through it all, I'm PUPO. Its been a long journey I can write a book lol

Hi everyone- unfortunately, my test today was negative. I'm to stop all meds and we'll have a WTF meeting with the doctor in a couple of weeks. Thanks for all of your support!

So sorry. I can imagine how hard this can be. There's always light at the end of the tunnel. Let us know how your appt goes.

firsttry - have you decided how many embies you will transfer?

Um, yes and no. The doctor and I talked and decided on 2, but the DH was disappointed that he wasn't part of the conversation. So, I'm waiting for DH to have his turn with the dr. I'm guessing we'll still land at 2, but maybe not.

I'm so sorry to hear that, Edamame. We all feel your disappointment.

I read a study about success rates and although there are risks when you transfer multiples (born prematurely, other complications), the study concluded that if you transfer 1, you have a 50% chance of success and if you transfer 2, it goes up to 75% chance of success. That is why we chose to transfer 2. Plus, we only had 2 and we're moving 6,000 miles away, so we didn't want to have to move the embryo to a new clinic. Good luck with whatever you and DH decide!

First- how were your embryos frozen? Mine we frozen in pairs so I don't have a choice I have to transfer 2 or lose one of my embryos. At least that is how they described the vials

Edamame, I'm so sorry to hear that it didn't work. When is your WTF appointment? Do you have any ? I really hope that they have some answers for you!

 

[BabyD225]

[Edamame]

Edamame, I'm so sorry to hear that it didn't work. When is your WTF appointment? Do you have any ? I really hope that they have some answers for you!

The wtf is March 4, after DH gets back from a trip. We have four frosties left, so I'm hopeful we'll have a couple more tries (but hopefully only need one more for baby #1....)

I hope your RE has some answers! I'm glad you have some I know with my last IVF that ended in a BFN it was a comfort knowing I still had some left.

Edamame I'm sorry to hear things didn't work out this time. Good luck at your appt, and hopefully there is a clear answer that can be addressed.

L4, BabyD and others that got BFPs please did any of you actually get the implantation bleeding??? I'm not spotting and I dont have any symptom at all other than the headache I had for 2 days and some in and out cramping earlier today thats now gone. I'm 5dp5dt and I'm getting worried. This wait is the hardest thing ever!

Babies, I know how you feel about this 2WW I'm driving myself . For the first 3 days i had sort of cramping/sharp shooting pains then today I've had a slight discolured discharge (TMI Sorry) with the pessary, hoping it's implantation bleed! but also for the last could of days my stomach/womb has been bloated and solid to the touch? I don't know what to think some days I'm positive but others i try not to get my hopes up as don't want to come crashing down to earth with a big fall if it hasn't worked!!!!!! Roll on Monday! xx
