Success after IF

BFN

I had IUI #3 two weeks ago. My beta was scheduled for tomorrow but AF decided to show today. :( We have to move on to IVF now. I'm so upset because our son was conceived through IUI, but we're told he's a miracle baby, mainly because of DH's low count. I want to start IVF #1 right away, but DH wants to work on getting our finances situated first. Ugh...IF sucks.

dx: hypothalamic ammenorhea & MFI. TTC #1 since 7/09.12/09: DH had varicocele surgery. 5/10-8/10: IUI + Clomid #1-4 BFN, 9/10: IUI #5 + Clomid: BFP!!! Tyler Liam 6/3/11 7 lbs. 2 oz. 20 in. :) TTC #2 since 11/12. IUI + Clomid #1-2 Clomid: BFN, new RE: IUI + injectibles: BFN. Onto IVF#1 Antagonist: July '13: Estrogen, Provera, Menopur/Gonal/Cetrotide; ER 8/6: 8 eggs, 6 mature, 5 fert. with ICSI; 5D SET 8/11: BFN :( FET 2 embryos scheduled 9/13: BFP!!! 10/13: 2 heartbeats!

Re: BFN

  • I'm sorry hon. I know the prospect of IVF is scary, but the success rates are good. It is all worth it. I hope IVF brings you a sticky BFP!

  • So sorry! Hugs. We jumped right to IVF after two failed clomid cycles (unexplained IF). We had some very modest insurance coverage ($5k policy lifetime, $2.5k RX). We ran some numbers and determined that we could exhaust the coverage on IUI or do one big push for IVF and have a really good chance of success (he quoted us 65%). I think we made the right choice!!!

    Good luck to you...hopefully you can cycle sooner than expected!
