Thank you all for the hugs and kind words. It means a lot. I'm trying to keep my chin up, but it's so hard. And to top it off, my 19yo SIL's baby shower is tomorrow...I don't know if I'll be able to smile through my jealousy and hurt.
I completely understand. Tomorrow is a new day. You can make it through! praying for some peace for you.

Married August 2012 -- Me (40 yrs old) My husband (45 yrs. old)
RE referral from ObGYN in late Jan. 2013 -- Testing Confirms Unexplained IF
IUI #"s1 - 3 (Femara + IUI) April - June 2013 - all BFN
Decided to do IVF...Began stimming on September 10th! Egg Retrieval 9/20/13. 19 eggs: 6 to mature to freeze after 6 fertilized with ICSI
3 morula stage embryos transferred on 9/25/13.....Beta #1 on 10/4/13/ = 7.5 Beta #2 on 10/6/13 = negative
IVF#2 - Lupron plan (set to begin on 10/28/13) (Planning on thawing and fertilizing our 6 eggs with ICSI as well as all of the mature eggs they retrieve with this fresh cycle.)
Late October 2013 - ectopic pregnancy - methotrexate injection....benched 3 months
CD1 - 12/5/13...Lupron set to start on 12/26/13; CD1 - 1/2/14....Baseline 1/3/14....begin follistim tonight and continue with lupron. (Got my calendar today! IVF#2 is a go!)
ER = 1/14/14 (11 eggs....9 were mature. 9 fertilized. Of the 6 mature eggs we thawed, only 4 fertilized. At this time, we have 13 eggs fertilized and growing. Waiting for news about a 3-day or 5-day transfer.)
ET = 1/19/14 (5dt).....3 blastocysts transferred! (All nine embryos didn't make it to freeze. =( )
I am sorry. BFN are so disappointing. Hang in there.
BFNs are definitely so disappointing...especially when I was so excited this morning for my beta and all the girls I work with (I got it done at the hospital I work at) were cheering me on, then I came into work a few hours later a blubbering mess. My RE wants to wait until I get my period (which, who knows how long that will be), then start me on my third round of Clomid. All this waiting for everything...

that's terrible that you have to go through all this heartache and somehow find a way to put on a happy face at a relative's baby shower. Try to plan something nice for yourself, good luck getting through it, and big huge ((hugs)). IF sucks... just so unfair

I honestly don't know how I'm going to make it through it...as much as I want to be excited and happy for her, I am still reeling from the news yesterday. I woke up this morning feeling even worse than yesterday and have to make it through work today as it is and I just want to be alone to get myself together this weekend.
