Fingers crossed for you Hun. Sorry you didn't get more than two this time around.

 

[DBZ34]

Fx for those two eggies! Sorry they couldn't get the last one out. But I hope your two fertilize, are of great quality, and are ready to get put back/ frozen.

 

[swimmyj1]

I'm sorry you only got 2 but hopefully they are perfect quality!

Finally got my ob switched (they gave me a really hard time about it?) I told the, I had an ultrasound at 8 weeks and will have all my info sent over to their office but they want another scan next week? Then im gonna meet my new ob for a pelvic exam feb 18th. I probably won't have another scan until im 16-20 weeks after the one next week that's probably gonna stink lol

Maybe they just want to do their own scan? Sorry they're making things difficult for you.

I've been wanting to change GPs because of how ours treated us with regards to our referral and not being helpful at all! Don't want him anywhere near me when I get my own baby bump but luckily that'll naturally happen when we move so no fuss

AFM I'm trying to sit out the rest of my 48 hour wait I don't know if I should let DH take the phone this time since if it's bad news, he can maybe say it in a better way.

 

[KatO79]

So just had my transfer. It was a top grade embie so the RE says my chances of pregnancy are at their highest with this one The bad news was the last egg did fertilise but had divided really badly so they have to throw it out so no frostie(s) yet again

That's great news! Have everything crossed for you xxx

 

[DBZ34]

Hooray for a high grade embie!! Hope this is it for you!!

 

[swimmyj1]

hopefully you won't need the frosty and this will be your rainbow baby!!! ooohhh i can't wait for you to start testing lol

 

[Myshelsong]

Fingers hoping this little bean finds a home.

 

[deafgal01]

Good luck Kat!

Can't remember which forum but someone mentioned some type of vitamin or something that helped them conceive on first try? I'm considering buying it since I have been trying with real swimmers last few cycles and am not having any luck getting a bfp.

 

[DBZ34]

Wasn't me...Let me know what this miracle vitamin is though. I want to take it too. lol.



AFM- Meeting with doc was slightly unproductive. He suggested I find another doctor who has more expertise/ is willing to test me for all sorts of things he doesn't think I'm being affected by himself, so I might do that. Well, after we try the endometrial scratch in the next two cycles, which helps with implantation. There's no guarantee that it's an issue, but it can't hurt. So we'll try it, give it a few cycles, and then think about what we want to do next if it's not successsful.

 

[KatO79]

deafgal sorry you haven't had any success yet Are we talking about only one person that got their BFP 1st cycle? It could be coincidence then but I guess it can't hurt to try

DBZ sorry your RE wasn't very helpful but I had a feeling from what you described he would say something like that. Yeah, it's probably for the best to either change REs and see if the next one is more helpful or find a new clinic (although I know you'd rather stay put). I'd first interview 1-2 of the other REs at the clinic you're at since you'd prefer to stay and ask them if they'd be willing to test you for a few more things. No reason to change to another RE only to find out he/she has the same opinion as your current RE and won't test you Might be good to start talking to the other REs in the meantime so if the scratch doesn't give you your sticky BFP (FXed it will though!) then you've already set yourself up with another RE and can start testing quicker.

 

[swimmyj1]

Deafgal I had my DH taking fertilaid and we got pregnant within 1-2 months of him taking it but I was on clomid and stuff. Not sure if that's what u where talking about. But stay away from the fertilaid for women our fertility of said that's a big no.

Dbz im sorry he wasn't much help, but at least he was honest and not wasting your time. Hopefully you won't need to see anyone else.

Kat how ru feeling??

Afm scan was great today but baby was very wiggly sense i had just drank oj. Now just lots of waiting and hoping

Well I'm only 5dp2dt (7 dpo) so not feeling all that much yet. But I'm on Crinone so accounting for some things may be due to that. I'm just taking it as it comes and we'll see at my beta. If it's a BFN or another CP, we only have one more shot at it since we have 0 frosties and only 1 IVF attempt left

Glad to hear your scan went well and everything looks good FXed it continues that way!

 

[Myshelsong]

Anyone that conceived first try had great luck and perfect sperm and eggs. I have three friends like that. I hate them.

Hubs is still taking his vitamins, hopefully they will continue to work for the IUI. I really don't know of anything for a woman to take beyond coq10 for egg health. But who knows, I am trying to stay up on vitamins B, C, And D but I shave all but given up on anything not medically prescribed.

Waiting for af, she is due between Sat and Monday. Should be a fun weekend waiting.

DMZ sorry your dr is being like that. Is he a fertility specialists? Just wondering what tests you have had done so far?

I think deafgal meant that they conceived 1st try using the supplement and not their actual 1st cycle trying But yeah either way I still think there's luck in it.

I've been taking Royal Jelly for egg quality so maybe that's an option? Although I think Coq10 does the same thing, don't know if one is better than the other though I'd say that you should also be taking Folic Acid since it prevents neural problems (spina bifida) in the baby and it's recommended to be taking it for 3 months before you conceive as it needs to build up in your system. Although I've been taking it now for 2 years and about 6 months since I started taking it before we actually started TTCing as per the recommendation

FXed for your IUI

 

[crystal8]

My FS suggested myoinositol to me for egg quality and hormone regulation. I've also had coenzyme q10 recommended.

 

[swimmyj1]

I took coenzyme q10 our fertility specialist said that and vitamin d

 

[wannabemummyb]

My patience has paid off AF has finally turned up! Never been so happy to come on - think it's going to be a painful one as had cramps for a couple of days but at least I have a stake in the sand and a starting point to start trying again! Plus it feels like the physical effects of the miscarriage are finally over!!now just to deal with the emotional side

 

[deafgal01]

I found out the answer in another forum. Chasteberry extract (aka Vitex)... I'm going to order some and start taking that to see if it helps. Everything is worth a try I guess...
