Congratulations to all the PUPO ladies out there! Fingers crossed for many many BFPs on the board this month! So exciting!
AFM, had my endo scratch and baseline appointment on Monday and starting estrace and lovenox on Saturday! I also lost 5 pounds in the last 4 weeks and started eating healthy and exercise 5 times a week. Will see if it will do the trick and my last embie will stick...

@DecemberDoll27 congrats on the lost pounds and I'm happy to hear that your new health regimen is working out. I'll be stalking you in this thread and I hope that your stay would be easy and quick.
AFM I’ve been cramping a bit the last couple days off and on. Trying not to read anything into it but it has never happened before. Only a week left until my beta!

@tosh24 hi transfer buddy how did it go today for you?!!
Everything went great with my transfer today! It wasnt scheduled until 230 which I was concerned about because of the snowstorm but we got there and home safely thank God. Transfer was so smooth! I had a cervical dilation last month to address my cervical stenosis and difficulty with catheters but it was so easy today, the cath went right in not pain or spotting at all! So thankful with how today went!!
I just got the worst news someone with frozen embryos could possibly get. There was and issue with the tank where my embryos were being stored over the weekend and my two remaining embryos are no longer viable. The good news is my clinic is going to pay for my next retrieval and hopefully that won't be until next year because the transfer I had last Friday works.

@beachbunnyxo123 so glad everything went well and there weren't any issues with the catheter! How are you feeling today? I am feeling crampy and "full" in the ute but I don't know that it means anything at this point. I felt like that last transfer too for the first 4 days but then it went away and obvi that cycle was a BFN. I am feeling much better physically and emotionally compared to last transfer so at least that's a plus!

marfi236 I'm glad they are going to pay for it but I'm so sorry you have to go through all of that again. That is truly the worst news The things you hope wouldn't happen. Hang in there. Well hoping the best from your recent transfer.

@marfi236 OMG! That is devastating. I am so sorry. I can't even imagine getting news like that. Glad they are paying for another retrieval, but really hoping it's not for awhile since your recent transfer worked.

@marfi236 UGH that sucks. There is so much unknown in this process, but an issue with the embryo storage is one that I wouldn't have thought to worry about - don't they have backup for that sort of thing!? I agree that the cramping is probably a good sign. I haven't had much, so I'm not feeling much hope for this cycle, but I'm still cheering you on! I'm so glad they put one of the embryos into you before the rest were lost

@marfi236 I read about that last night. I'm so sorry you were impacted by it. Hopefully this transfer works and the next retrieval is successful as well.
When I had my transfer I told myself I was going to test before my beta so that I wouldn't be surprised by a negative result when I'm working in the office this week. My last beta I was working from home so I could be upset with no witnesses. So I was up early for church this morning and really had to go so I decided to take a test and got a positive! The line came up almost immediately and though it wasn't as dark as the control line it was definitely there. Hubs wasn't convinced so I took a digital test and got a positive! I'm not calling it official until my beta on Wednesday but it's super promising!

As my husband likes to give me a hard time about, I was only just last night crying to him because I was convinced this transfer didn’t work. I think I might call my RE tomorrow morning and see if I can move up the beta because the wait is gonna drive me crazy!!

@marfi236 Ooooh! That's so exciting! I hope you get an amazing beta!
AFM, Ugh - I'm 98% sure I'm experiencing another chemical pregnancy which happened with my first 2 FETs. I've been getting very very faint positives for 3 days straight on wondfos, but they aren't moving into even "regular faint" territory. This is pretty consistent with my past transfers. I honestly don't understand why this keeps happening. I have zero fertility issues, a regular cycle, PGS-tested embryos and I just had a hysteroscopy to clean everything up.

So I called my RE's office this morning and they were able to fit me in for a beta! I just got the call and my beta for 10dp5dt is 101! I'm so excited! I never thought this day would come! Thanks for all the prayers!

August 13, 2020 - Son born at 37 weeks an 6 days due to failed BPP (Gestational Diabetes).
So, as usual, I'm a tester because I don't like being surprised at beta. Today is 7dp5dt and BFN, as I've come to expect. Official beta is Saturday but I'm not holding out hope. I'm getting so tired of this. Almost 6 years of BFNs is tough to take. I don't know how many more transfers I can handle emotionally.

I am so sorry @tosh24. Everything crossed that if this transfer isn't successful you can get some answers/ideas why these transfers haven't worked. Since your embryos aren't tested, would your office let you put two in?

Oh my gosh I wrote so much more in my last post but only 1 sentence posted!?! I’ll try again,
@tosh24 don’t loose hope yet, the doctors wait to do the beta test for a reason. Late implanters take time to test positive. Hang in there!
@SingleGeneMe have you tested with a different brand? If all the wondfos came from the same lot, who knows maybe they just don’t get dark. I’m sorry, it is very concerning.
AFM I’m sorry I haven’t had time to keep up with the board. My transfer got pushed back 1 day so it is tomorrow. I have cleared my schedule for 4 days so I will have lots of time now. I’m really excited about all of it!
I do have a question about taking the Valium. My last 4 transfers I always took it an hour before the transfer. My new practice says to take it 30 minuets before transfer. When was everyone told to take their Valium before transfer?
@tosh24 I'm sorry. It sucks dealing with this over and over again.
@chillvazz I didn't want to waste money on a FRER. I did try with a different brand of IC and it was the same. I figured I would just wait for my beta today instead of making myself miserable guessing how positive the tests were. And about the valium, I've always been told to take it 1 hour before.
AFM I got my beta results back - HCG of 10 - another chemical pregnancy - I'm 3 for 3 now.

I did my transfer yesterday my Doctor is very happy about the placement & the quality of the embryos. I ended up taking the Valium an hour before transfer as my anxiety was rising. I slept most the day yesterday. Today I’m taking it easy watching tv & doing light house chores. My HCG is March 26. So here goes the wait...
@SingleGeneMe I'm so sorry about the CP. Devastating and frustrating at the same time. Do you and your RE have any ideas about how to move forward?
@chillvazz Congrats on the transfer! Hope you get a great result on the 26th!
@mockingjay1 Thanks for checking in on me. The program my IVF cycle (and therefore subsequent FET cycles) was funded through has a SET requirement if you're under 35. You can only start putting 2 embryos back once you've had 3 failed transfers. I already told my RE that if get to 3 failed transfers I'll be putting 2 back after that because my embryos are untested. She's still not in love with the idea and wants to continue with SETs, but too bad! I can only take so many transfers.

Took an HPT this morning before beta (the 10 IU/ml sensitivity) and it was negative. Not even a shadow. Just saw my beta results in the portal and it came back at 54. WTF?!? I stopped taking my progesterone yesterday (9dp5dt) when I got a BFN on HPT....oops! Ran to the bathroom and shoved two prometrium up there as soon as I saw my results lol. I'm not very comfortable with the number since my last two losses were low betas so I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Second beta on Monday.

Everything went great with my transfer today! It wasnt scheduled until 230 which I was concerned about because of the snowstorm but we got there and home safely thank God. Transfer was so smooth! I had a cervical dilation last month to address my cervical stenosis and difficulty with catheters but it was so easy today, the cath went right in not pain or spotting at all! So thankful with how today went!!

@tosh24 I just feel super low energy and tired. How have you been feeling?
When I had my transfer I told myself I was going to test before my beta so that I wouldn't be surprised by a negative result when I'm working in the office this week. My last beta I was working from home so I could be upset with no witnesses. So I was up early for church this morning and really had to go so I decided to take a test and got a positive! The line came up almost immediately and though it wasn't as dark as the control line it was definitely there. Hubs wasn't convinced so I took a digital test and got a positive!
I'm not calling it official until my beta on Wednesday but it's super promising!

AFM, Ugh - I'm 98% sure I'm experiencing another chemical pregnancy which happened with my first 2 FETs. I've been getting very very faint positives for 3 days straight on wondfos, but they aren't moving into even "regular faint" territory. This is pretty consistent with my past transfers. I honestly don't understand why this keeps happening. I have zero fertility issues, a regular cycle, PGS-tested embryos and I just had a hysteroscopy to clean everything up.

I am so sorry @tosh24. Everything crossed that if this transfer isn't successful you can get some answers/ideas why these transfers haven't worked. Since your embryos aren't tested, would your office let you put two in?

@tosh24 don’t loose hope yet, the doctors wait to do the beta test for a reason. Late implanters take time to test positive. Hang in there!
@SingleGeneMe have you tested with a different brand? If all the wondfos came from the same lot, who knows maybe they just don’t get dark. I’m sorry, it is very concerning.
AFM I’m sorry I haven’t had time to keep up with the board. My transfer got pushed back 1 day so it is tomorrow. I have cleared my schedule for 4 days so I will have lots of time now. I’m really excited about all of it!
I do have a question about taking the Valium. My last 4 transfers I always took it an hour before the transfer. My new practice says to take it 30 minuets before transfer. When was everyone told to take their Valium before transfer?
@chillvazz I didn't want to waste money on a FRER. I did try with a different brand of IC and it was the same. I figured I would just wait for my beta today instead of making myself miserable guessing how positive the tests were. And about the valium, I've always been told to take it 1 hour before.
AFM I got my beta results back - HCG of 10 - another chemical pregnancy - I'm 3 for 3 now.

@chillvazz Congrats on the transfer! Hope you get a great result on the 26th!
@mockingjay1 Thanks for checking in on me. The program my IVF cycle (and therefore subsequent FET cycles) was funded through has a SET requirement if you're under 35. You can only start putting 2 embryos back once you've had 3 failed transfers. I already told my RE that if get to 3 failed transfers I'll be putting 2 back after that because my embryos are untested. She's still not in love with the idea and wants to continue with SETs, but too bad! I can only take so many transfers.
