Trying Again After a Failed IVF Cycle

Morning Ladies

Sorry ive been MIA, being keeping up to date with everyones posts! Things are definitely starting to move along for everyone! :hugs:

Just thought i would update you as i EVENTUALLY had first appt after failed cycle in Sept. All good news slightly disappointed but still all good.

Could have started FET process tomorrow but due to the 2 week closure of the lab over xmas got to wait til my next AF, which should be within the next 2 weeks. On the good side once AF shows in December ive got my drugs today so can start straight away! Woo Hoo. So its looking like ill be doing FET beginning of Jan.

Another good point is I can transfer both Blastocysts if they survive the Thaw! :happydance: Which is good news as could only transfer one blastocyst in fresh cycle due to the NHS trying to reduce multiple births.

I guess its good that im waiting til my next cycle as this one was crazy it was a week late and also lasted 11 days which is very unusal for me and hopefully my body will be back to normal or a normal as it can be after IVF.

Hope everyone is well :kiss:
 
Hi Sandy, I know it's always frustrating to have things pushed back. But you seen to have a great attitude about it. Now you can relax and enjoy the holidays and have something to look forward to in the new year! And thats great they are willing to let you transfer both blasts!!
 
Hi Sandy! That is great you have a plan and although you have to wait a little longer then expected, I have my FX'ed for you.
 
Sorry I've been gone lately due to the holiday and now I'm on a work trip in Tampa. Hubby tagged along, so its kinds of a work/play trip.

Mo, I'm so thrilled things are looking fantastic for you! You've been through more than your share of pain, and you so deserve this!

Michelle, great news about the retrieval and fertilization! What's going on now?

Hope everyone else is doing well!
 
Hi s08! I had my et today, a five day transfer, two blasts put back and home and resting now!! My dh is at work and son with the sitter, so I have the whole house to myslef ;) its nice and quiet!
 
YAY Michelle!!

I keep forgeting how many threads Ive been keeping up with LOL. BUT my beta yesterday was 379!!! 10d after transfer of a single blast! Repeat tomorrow!! I think we made our baby!!
 
Hi everyone - Just thought I'd give the update that my beta on Thursday was negative. I'm really struggling with the result...much more than the first time around. I don't think I'll ever have embryos to freeze so the thought of continuing to do fresh cycles and failing is really discouraging. I have 1 more cycle covered by insurance, so I'm going to definitely at least get a second opinion and see if another clinic might have insight into why this hasn't worked. I'm considering speaking with CCRM in Colorado, and also looking into DE. If any of you have success stories from multiple failed IVF attempts, I'd love to hear them.

I am soooo sorry :( Hopefully a new clinic can help. And I hope to have a success story after having 2 failed cycles, but I am starting to feel like this one may be a bust too. Don't give up hope, although I know it is hard not too, but you have another cycle to try!!
 
Michelle - When is your beta? If this is your third fresh cycle, what did your doctor tell you after your second IVF? MY WTF appointment is this Friday and I'm just wondering if I'm over-reacting or if your doctor was encouraging?
 
Whatif - My beta is next Monday. I had to do an hcg booster this past Saturday, so it really screws up testing early! After my second failed cycle, my FS said that I just did not respond to the protocol he put me on for the second cycle and he said that sometimes it takes a few cycles to figure things out. All 3 of my cycles were fresh cycles and so this 3rd one, he went back to the first cycle protocol and I responded much better after he increased my follistum. I am just a slow responder and of course he didn't know that until after my first cycle responded, but the second one was just a complete bust. I got 12 eggs this past cycle, more then the previous 2 and the 2 they transferred were both blasts by day 5.

My FS seemed more hopeful for this cycle, but I am always skeptical! I would ask if there is anything else you can do or test for! Good Luck and I hope you get some answers :hugs:
 
Thanks Michelle! Hopefully I'll get some answers after my WTF. Fingers crossed for you!
 
What - I'm so sorry you got a negative :hugs: thinking of you and hope you get some answers on Friday. This is such an emotional roller coaster. Hope you start to feel better soon and able to look forward once you get those answers. :hugs: xx
 
Thanks Sandy! As everyone here knows, its so hard to have hope after 1 failed cycle, let alone 2. Couple that with insurance crap and the stress can get overwhelming. Thanks so much for letting me vent.
 
I'm so sorry to read your news, whatthe. Going through not just one, but two, failed cycles must be terrible. I hope you get answers you need, although I know that doesn't always happen. Feel free to vent away here and take care.
 
So sorry your second cycle failed whattheivf! Venting is definitely what we're here for. Hope your WTF appt helps you find some answers or get a good plan set for your next try. :hug:
 
Thanks so much ladies. I'm trying to stay positive today...after my chemical in August my RE told me she'd want to try 3 different protocols before she'd even talk to me about DE, so I guess we've now tried 1 of the 3, and have 2 to go. She did say that with DOR it will take more tries than most to be successful so I guess I should have been prepared for this. I've been reading a bunch of success stories today from women who eventually got their BFPs after multiple IVFs, so hopefully I can be one of them. You too Michelle!
 
Hey ladies, I've been MIA for a while. I did go through IVF #2 which ended in a BFN and I am beyond devastated and wondering if this will ever happen to me. I have my WTF #2 appt with my dr on Tuesday, not sure what he is going to say. My DH and I decided we are going to pay for an IVF at Cornell, which supposidly is one of the best in the country. We are happy with that decsion, but that consult wont be until January or February. Although I know I need a break from anything TTC I cant help but feel rushed as I just turned 38.

Whatthe, I can totally relate to how you are feeling, especially since I am unexplained all mine and DH's test have come back normal, FSH, AMH, TSH and my DH went for the extended DNA anaylsis for his guys as well. We also did the DNA Karyotping blood test, all normal. My RE mentioned somthing about egg quality. Infertility Sux!

I wish all of you ladies constant support and I am always stalking this thread and others!
