@alexiskiriluk they already extended my meds without much
improvement. She said there comes a point where the meds won’t do much more.
@JWilsonKC the waiting is definitely the worse! I avoided all
IM shot with my retrieval – and I’m not great with needles – so I’m pretty nervous
for them, but if they work, it will be worth it. Congrats on your BFP!!!
@capps42613 when is your transfer? We also did ICSI
Thank you @saritafernandez ! I appreciate it. I have not given up hope yet! How are you feeling with the injections? I felt pretty good! I will warn you that before my ER I felt SO bloated. The most bloated I've ever been in my life. That was the worst part for me. FX your cycle goes well!!!
@Rachd110 I have not POAS since last week. My husband is insisting I wait until tomorrow for my beta results so I can enjoy the hope that I could be pregnant He says enjoy.. but there is nothing to enjoy during this waiting game. My fingers are crossed for your results today!!!!
@MelD17011 Ugh!!! I am so sorry. I was really hoping that wouldn't happen for you. I hope the wait isn't too long. If it's six weeks hopefully you can stay busy and they will fly by.
@JWilsonKC CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is so exciting! Hope your levels go up up and up!

I'm pretty devastated. My beta came back positive, but only at 15. I'm guessing it has decreased since Saturday because my FRER came back with a pretty dark positive on Friday and Saturday. I also took a digital last night and it came back 2-3 weeks.
During my loss back in Nov/Dec, my hpt was very faint, digital came back at 1-2 weeks and this was when my beta was at 33. I'm so confused right now.
I know it only matters if the # doubles. I'm going back Wednesday for another test. I don't have a good feeling about this.
I keep thinking they got it wrong, there was a lab error or what could I have done differently. I was up and about all day Saturday shopping and running errands...walking around even with the back pain. Maybe I should have been home resting.
Im going to take another digital tonight to see if it now shows 1-2 weeks. If so, I guess I have my answer.
Oh @Rachd110 I am so so sorry. like you said, though, it only matters if the number doubles. I know that doesn't help much. I've been in your same position and the waiting for another test was absolutely excruciating. I am praying that your number goes up! Please, whatever you do, do not blame yourself. I know that is natural but it's not fair. There are so many things that are out of our control. I've heard that walking is good to increase circulation. That's the thing, there are just so many different theories on what you should and shouldn't do. We could drive ourselves crazy all day with "what could I have done differently?" Please keep us updated and I'm here if you need to vent. Sending you a hug and praying that number doubles!!

Hi Ladies..I don't know how I didn't see this thread until now. I had my first FET on March 8 and am in the 2ww..my beta is next monday the 21..I hate this part..every twinge makes me think..is this good, is this bad..I am going to try to catch up on all the other posts but there is a lot I missed! Good luck to everyone
Trigger warning: Child mentioned @mskeenan don't count yourself out yet..When I got pregnant with my son 2 days before my period was due I started having all my regular period symptoms. I got so bummed because I really thought I was pregnant that month. I had all my pre period symptoms for about a day or so and then the day of my period showing up they started to decrease and my period never showed. I was very regular then and kept checking nd checking all day. Finally at 10 pm we went out and got a hpt and it was positive..Period symptoms are just like pregnancy ones.
Congrats to the other BFP's..cna't remember everyones names..
@rachlee2010 that is reassuring ! My spotting actually stopped today and the cramps let up . I am feeling so much more hopeful !!! Ugh I hate the Tww as well . I hope yours goes by quickly !!! Fingers crossed for you

Good luck today @mskeenan For those who are in or are done with the 2ww...what if any symptoms did you have? I am going crazy here. I had a bunch of cramping 2dp5dt...I am hoping it was implantation. Since then starting the evening of 4dp5dt I have had some on and off cramping. I also have had some boob soreness but I am def assumign that is the PIO. I guess the cramping could be too but I had some very mild boob soreness after starting PIO but before transfer..it has increased since transfer..no cramps before transfer at all. Then at times I feel 100% normal which I know can still be good but makes me nervous...ahh...
I feel so nervous I am nauseous ! I am a little relieved that my spotting and cramping has subsided . The nurse said that my cervix could have bled from being irritated from the crinone I'm on . I hope one or both of my little ones stuck !! Today is going to be painful with waiting

@Rachlee2010 I am past the tww and my symptoms vary greatly, like you said, at times I feel 100% normal and other times I wonder what the heck is going on. To give you an idea: -My temperature is totally messed up, I will go from super hot to cold in an instant or vice versa -The sweating...oh my I feel like I'm going through menopause at times. I was doing nothing on Saturday with a tshirt and shorts on and I was sweating between my boobs- this is a whole new experience! -Acid reflux....sometimes I get it if I haven't eaten for awhile and other times I get it after eating. -The cramping feels exactly like my normal period cramps. Which is very scary at times because I literally think AF is coming. -I'm tired, but sleep light as a feather. If there is any noise, husband showering or even the dog moving in our room in the middle of the night, I will wake up -And perhaps the most annoying of all, I wake up every.single.night to pee at least once. I've had this for a couple weeks so I'm positive this is due to one of the many medicine, but man, it is annoying!
Since this is my first pregnancy, I wonder if these things are normal this early or if these are all side effects of the medicine.
@alexiskiriluk - good luck tomorrow! Be sure to rest and relax. As someone else said, the transfer is super fast. I was very calm for the transfer and for a couple days following, but as the beta test got closer, I was a ball of nerves.
@alexiskiriluk this was my first FET, but second transfer. My fresh cycle in November ended in an ectopic.
@rachlee2010 I've had on and off cramps that started 2dp5pt and low back pain from 6dpt to 10dpt. I also felt very wet down there (TMI, sorry), starting 7dpt, but it has not gone away. I've also been extremely thirsty. I think that started around 8-9dpt.
As for me, I am more confused today. I took another digital test last night and it showed 2-3 weeks, which translates to 4-5 weeks. I also POAS again this morning and received a very dark line. It was actually darker than the control line. So it has gotten darker since I POAS on Friday and Saturday. I thought the darker the line, the more HCG you have in your urine. Does anyone know if there is a correlation between the darkness of the line and HCG level? I just don't understand how my beta came back at only 15 yesterday when the line is getting darker. It doesn't make any sense to me.
According to that website at 4 weeks hcg levels can be between 5-426. I thought my clinic said they wanted the initial beta above 5, but that seemed really low- perhaps that is the case. This article also mentioned that they think with a FET that the embies might not attach as fast, therefore delaying the hcg in your blood.
And as several people already mentioned, the rise in the number seems to be way more important than the initial beta.
I'm going to stay positive that you receive good news tomorrow!!
Ahhhhhhh!!!! I am so happy for you!!!! @mskeenanCongratulations!!!!! That is an amazing beta!!! Are we thinking twins??? I have been stalking the board for your update all day!!!! Such wonderful news!!!!
Fert update: Only 2/6 embryos fertilized They did mention that our 2 look great, but it looks like we will be having a 3 day transfer on Thursday since they don't want to chance them not making it to blastocysts. We will have to speak with RE tomorrow as to how many we will transfer etc. tomorrow. Do we transfer both? Do we transfer 1 and freeze the other? What if the 1 we freeze doesn't make it through the unfreezing process? I'd appreciate some feedback! I feel very defeated I really don't want to have to do another retrieval again if this doesn't work, but of course I will.

@capps42613 I only had 2 make it to day 6 for biopsy and only one was normal. If I were you and not doing PGS I would put in 2. I'm putting mine in tomorrow!!! Good luck! Looks like we will be in the 2ww together!!!
@capps42613 I would definitely do 2. We did 2 with our fresh cycle and had 1 healthy baby.
AFM - had my FET today. Took a little longer with too full of bladder than too much fluid that I had to get up and walk around a bit. Placement was perfect but embryo is graded as fair. Fingers crossed. I found out I will know results the day before we host a big party. I wanted after...so I guess if I get a no I'll make a big picture of sangria. Meanwhile, it is an unusually gorgeous day so I've decided to do my bed rest on the screened in porch
@alexiskiriluk yeah, we didn't do any testing so I believe your probably right to try 2. I'll have to talk to DH tonight because I know he was firmly set on only transferring one in fear of twins lol. GL tomorrow, TWW buddy
@stranzm thank you for your help! FX for your BFP. Hang in there during the TWW!

@mskeenan how many days post transfer were you when you tested and got a BFN? I am 7dp5dt and debating when to test. What symptoms did you have other than spotting? Are you having any symptoms now?
