IVF - For those in January?? (Nov. is long gone!)

[sunshine314]

Congrats Janice!!! That line looks awesome

 

[sunshine314]

Good luck with your beta today Sarah...at least I hope you got in today. What time do you find out tomorrow? Did you do another test this morning? Your line definitely looks darker at 8dp5dt then the one the day before

 

[sunshine314]

Katie - I don't know why they make you wait so long to get your beta...14 days after TRANSFER is forever...I feel like it is usually 14 or 15 days after retrieval (that is what it was for me). I wouldn't worry though...your beta will probably just be super high by the time you go in. Maybe that is what they want it to be and they want to rule out any chemical pregnancies.

They dont evan do betas. You have to ring them on 14dp5dt and they book you in for an ultrasound for 3 weeks later. I am now 12 dp retrieval, 14 dp 5000 trigger and 7dp5dt. I have been testing positive for 3 days trigger gone since early last week. Can I be content in believing in am pregnant. This is driving me mad.

Katie: you are preggers! Congrats. Stinks your clinic wont see you for a beta and are making you wait.trigger is gone. Mine took 12 days and the line was very faint before that. I had ovidrel 500 which is more than what you had.
Janice: congrats!!
Iluvbabies: fx for successful cycles in jan! Looking forward to being cycle buddies.
Sarah: cant wait to hear your results! Fx for you

Wow sounds like the process is so different for everyone. The day I have my ET, they immediately book me in to come back 15 days after to have a blood test and to see the fertility specialist 2 hours after the test. Doctor will then console those who didn't get a BFP, explain and give options. Or, if it's a BFP, he will congratulate, give an U/S scan to see how many embryos implanted.

Hi

After impatiently caving in, I tested and got an extremely faint line at 10dpo that could have passed off as an evap. So I tested again in the afternoon and twice at 11 dpo, today. I got my BFP and hope this baby sticks :-D

hi everyone

I just went for my beta, have 1 test left so will test tonight as my evening pee seems to be the best. I will find out sometime tomorrow...yikes this is going to be a long 24 hours

katie thats frustrating....I know the clinics dont like people doing hpt as I think theres so much inconsistancy and they must get annoyed with people calling with negatives and light positives etc. they have probably seen people with positive tests from the trigger get negative betas and so thats why they wont confirm anything. however seeing as you tested negative a few days ago and now have these lines Im sure you are pregnant. did you test inbetween and see the lines fade in slowly? and you used the same tests for the negative and the positive? those are great lines so I would be cautiously ecstatic!!!

my lines are fainter than yours and Im trying not to worry about them not being dark enough as it seems the variety of peoples lines is very very different...some people even get negatives till after betas so its confusing. thats annoying they dont do betas over there, I think its the same in england. over here we do 2 betas (1st one 14 days after ER) to make sure hcg is rising then booked in for ultrasound 3 weeks later. Janice thats interesting they give you an ultrasound on beta day...didnt think there was much to see then.

wishing sticky healthy beans for us all

My mom and I went to Ann Arbor today. I got my estrogen level from Wednesday and he claimed it was already quite high. Um...87 is nothing in my book. My biggest follicle is measuring barely 9 mm which means I'm hardly growing at all. Explains why I still feel fine other than some hormonal issues. Lining was 11.9 but it will all be bled out so it's useless at this point. He is saying no fresh transfer. The FET will be in January and he is willing to cut us a deal. So we'll see....I'm terribly bummed I won't be getting the ultimate Christmas gift. I'll be having a period instead. Then provera for another period and then 2 weeks of Lupron. They only gave me enough meds to last me through Monday and the retrieval has been pushed out an entire week because of slow growth. So I need 20 more vials which he is going to give me at the discount he bought them for. Yea I was tearing up and my mom was there to advocate for me. So we will be out another $800 which I am not happy about. This whole thing is holy expensive! And I'd be so much more hopeful if there was a guarantee. So....I go back to Ann Arbor again on Monday and hopefully my eggs will have taken off with the dose being doubled now. Continued prayers if you are the praying type!!

oh so before I thought they were cancelling you as you had overstimulated, but its that you have understimulated? so he wants to grow the follicles some more....but why do you have to wait till january for the transfer? theres lots of people who need to stim for a while and then do the fresh ER and ET. unfortunately those who under-stim do have to spend more on medications, its hard to know how we will react. If its their choice to do ER and then freeze them he should definitely give you a deal. sorry you had to go through this, FX that you have lots of eggs next week, it will all be worth it in the end

Wow this thread is so exciting. .... I hope the BFPs continue

AFM ... Just got back from the clinic - waited for 4 hrs as it's a satellite clinic to the pen I go to since it's closed on the weekend. I was told to take another dose of the puregon & the orgalutron. Tonight at 11pm I'm being told to trigger. My schedule ER is Tues @ 11 am. I'm scare & excited. And terribly emotional seeing that dad is getting operated on Tuesday as well . I hope God is hearing my loud prayers.

Hope you're all doing well!!

How exciting wanna be! Will be thinking about you.

Hey sarah. Best of luck with your results. I used the same tests daily till I got two negatives in a row after very faint lines. I stopped testing for 3 days and then I caved. I got a faint bfp on thursday night and loads of darker lines on friday on the same brand as I tested the trigger out and lots of other brands too. Lol, now the lines are getting darker each day. The darkest being the on the frer so they must be the most sensitive.

Hi everyone.
I would like to join this thread too. I just had my IVF procedure this month as well, and so far everything has went great! I started my injections/meds on Nov. 6th, egg retrieval was on Nov. 16th, and had two beautiful blasts transferred on Nov. 21st. I started testing 2dp5dt to see if hcg was still in my system, but not even the faintest line appeared on day 2 or 3 past transfer. Then on the evening of 4dp5dt I could have swore I noticed a line, but I didn't know if I should trust it. The next morning I tested again and immediately a second pink line appeared! I am so thankful to have gotten to this point, and I pray that everything continues to go just as wonderful. It is hard to feel confident after my past, but I have faith that this is going to work. I don't go back to get my beta hcg until Dec. 5th, which is 14 days past the transfer. I wish it was sooner, but hopefully this way I will get to have an u/s that day as well. It is so exciting following everyone and seeing all of the bfp's!! Congratulations to all of you, and good luck and baby dust to those who are in still in the process!

Hi , I am exactly a day ahead of you. I only transfered one blast and got my first faint bfp on 4dp5dt. My otd is 04/12. When do you finish your progesterone. Did you do short or long protocol.

 

[MoBaby]

Im managing. It is what it is. My lines stayed faint and yours are bfp forsure!! So happy for you! Maybe i had a chemical idk. Its encouraging to see all the bfps b/c that means this does work; just a little longer for some of us.

Hopefully next time will be your time. Life can be very cruel. Stay strong.

 

[ILuvBabies200]

Katie-I think you are definitely preggers! I know it's so hard to stay positive that! I wish they could run a beta on you!

Janice-OMG congrats! This thread is booming with BFP's!!!

Sarah-Can't wait for your results!! My eggs are not going as of yet but there are too many from the PCOS which is why he is worried. Wish they would give it to the very end to see what happens though instead of jumping to conclusions now.

Wannabe-Good luck Tuesday!!!

Me-Well I got a message this morning that my estrogen was not where they wanted it to be from yesterday's lab so both meds have been doubled. Why can they not see this when I can?? So I am at least a week out until retrieval. I have bruises on my stomach and I'm beyond done! Will post tomorrow after my next u/s!
