IUI#1 BFN

StarbinksStarbinks member
in Trouble TTC

Got my beta results back today.  Not pg.  So now I just have to wait for AF.  Not sure why its late.  Just wants to be cruel I guess.  I was actually starting to get my hopes up because I hadn't started yet.  I hate this because now I just want to get started with my next cycle.  I hate that I am just waiting without being able to make progress towards anything.  Once AF starts I will be moving onto injectables.  Hopefully they work better for me than Clomid did. I am sick of these nearly 40 day cycles.  

 Also, one of my co-workers had a baby today so on top of getting my BFN I got to look at baby pictures sent to my email and posted in the breakroom today.  I am happy for her and everything, but... just unlucky timing I guess.

    I am so sorry to hear that. I am the same- just a few days ahead of you. It is tough and then yesterday two- that's right two- of my managers told me they are expecting.  So hard to hear given the recent IUI failure.

    I am so sorry. Sad What a mindfvck. I really hope that the injectibles do the trick and that next cycle will be the one that works. GL!

    Oh no....I'm so sorry.  Hoping injectibles give you the boost you need to get a BFP this month.  
    ***SIGGY WARNING***

    DX: Unexplained
    6 Failed IUIs (Clomid and Gonal F).  
    IVF #1 began August 2013- BC, 4 days of Estrace, stimmed with Gonal F and Menopur, Ganirelix, 9R 5M 5F, Medrol and Doxycycline, 5 day transfer of 2 early blastocysts- good quality, Progesterone, Estrace, and baby aspirin, BETA on 9/20 BFN,   IVF #2 began September 2013, stimming with Gonal F (higher dose) and Menopur, Ganirelix, 18R 14M 9F with ICSI, 5 day transfer of 2 BBs one was starting to hatch, 2 frosties: 1  BB and 1 AC, BETA on 10/21, BFN BETA was a 5- chemical 
    Getting some more testing and trying to figure out what the issue is before FET in December, started acupuncture on 11/10, RLP and some other BW nothing major to report except slightly high Prolactin. Prolactin was slightly high when I started with my RE and I already had an MRI which was Neg.  Endo biopsy=negative.  WTF is wrong with us???
    12/18/13 FET of 1 BB and 1 AC.  Hoping for a miracle.  Beta 12/26 Low BETA-8 2nd BETA 5- chemical
    After 3 failed transfers IDK where to go from here.  Still no real answers as to why this isn't working.  Getting a second opinion in February and looking into immune testing.
