Beta is tomorrow and I tested this morning (10dp 3dt) and the stupid stark white nothingness of a BFN appeared. To be honest, I am pretty much numb right now. Surprisingly I didn't shed a tear....yet. That will probably arrive with the phone call from the nurse tomorrow confirming the negative beta. After 3 years of on-going fertility treatments, this may be it for us. I can't believe that after all this crap, we ended up where we started....without a baby. It makes my previous miscarriage that much more difficult to think about....
Thank you for all your support and love over the past few years. This board has been a rock of strength for me. I am not sure where we go from here, either child free living or adoption. I need a few months to get back in good shape again and to let the raw pain subside a little before thinking about anything else. Never in a million years did I ever think I would be at this spot in life. We still have one more ivf cycle that is covered by insurance, but I don't think emotionally what my DH and I can handle anymore dissapointment and sadness. He was the one who brought up adoption this week....which was very surprising for me to hear him say that.....so who knows that the future will bring us.
Re: IVF #3 or is it #5? = BFN
I am so sorry. I hope and pray that you and your DH will be able to heal and decide what is best for your family (i.e. childfree or adoption). We are here for you!
12/08 DX - irregular cycles - unexplained IF
2/09 - 4/09 - Clomid, TI
5/09 - 12/09 - 4 IUI
3/10 - 7/10 - 2 IVF
11/10 - Frozen Transfer
3/11 - Dx Insulin Resistant & Hypoglycemic - treating w/ Metformin & diet
I am so sorry.
We were in the same position as you earlier this year - deciding between one last IVF or going to DE or adoption. We opted to try one more time. I did alot of different things before our last IVF that I think made the difference. I am not advocating another IVF because I don't know your dx, but if you want some additional info, check out my blog or send me an email at kpeske1 at aol dot com when you feel up to it.
Take care - ((HUGS))

oh sweetie, I'm so sorry. I'm hoping that maybe it was just too early to detect on an HPT. ((((((hugs))))))
Anyway, I just wanted you to know that I know how you feel. I never ever thought I would end up being one of the few that never gets their sticky BFP. It's been a bitter pill to swallow, for sure, but somehow little by little, it gets better.
Please take care of yourself, and wherever this road leads you, I hope you find peace.
hugs,
