    IVF #3: ER 12/1 and only 2 retrieved.  1 fertilized with ICSI.  Was planning on transferring one fresh and one frozen....fresh was only 14 cells at day 5...CANCELLED and devastated due to 5cm blood filled cyst in ovary and blood in uterus.
    IVF #4: Antagonist protocol with endometrial scratch day one of stims.  ER 4/21: 6R/4M/3F- transferred 2 beautiful blasts (5dt) and one was hatching!  No frosties but hoping we won't need it!  Beta 5/4/14- 444(8dp5dt), Beta #2 10dp5dt 1002!  THIS HAS GOT TO BE IT!!!!!!!!!!  First US 5/15 we saw two of the most beautiful gestational and yolk sacs I have ever seen!

  • God I hope so! Can't help but feel nervous still. My last miscarriage was only 3 days after our first ultrasound. So that's the first milestone, then I have to graduate bc the second one was at my last ultrasound. My progesterone though can't seem to get much higher! It's usually between 15-17 sometimes 20. I already have been increased to 1.5 but it just makes me worried. I know some of you have really high progesterone levels.
