I agree with @SparrowTales, you have no reason to apologize @Nursene2003 , I think all of us on this board have been there. I want to tell you you are not a failure, this is a disease and it doesn't matter how hard you try, a lot of what happens is out of our control, but again, I have been there with you and know it is hard not to feel that way sometimes. Hugs!

@Nursene2003 Do not feel bad for the way you feel, we all have felt that way even tho it's is not our fault at all. @2legbaby is right it is a disease and you should not feel anymore like a failure than other people who are sick, I do know it is easier said than done tho. I am really sorry.

How are all the BFPs doing? I have my FET on 1/15 and get for beta on 1/26. I cannot wait for next Friday!!! Hope everyone is doing well. How's everyone doing? Any updates? Any twins?
For those doing FET or BFNs, are you on your next cycle or what are you up to?
Oh my goodness @Piperella - only a week left to go! Are you getting excited?? Is that an understatement? Are you transferring one or two?
Everything going well here. I have my ultrasound next week at 7 weeks. I'm anxiously waiting for it. I'm relatively sure I'm still pregnant based on symptoms, but I'm so curious if there's one or two in there!! Keep us posted on how everything goes!!

12/2015: IVF #1 transferred two great looking embryos - BFP!
First ultrasound: TWO beautiful little heartbeats!!
Harmony: negative; level 2: babies look great and are boy/girl!
@emsmama15 I'm beyond excited, but I think you knew that!!! I'm transferring two 4ABs. Those are our best ones, although we have 4BAs, too.. I think the first A is better.. That means they are in the expanded blastocyst stage with thinning zona.. I'm not having assisted hatching because they are really good blasts. I've exhausted myself with reading things on the internet, but I still keep reading. I'll report back on Friday for sure!!!
Hi ladies! I'm on a few of the other boards .. i am having FET 1/22.. I was wondering if you got a BFP if you had any good tips for day of or before transfer? It's will be round 3 for me so want to try and do everything right! Bed rest yes or no? if so How long? Thanks! xx congrats @Smallinetta!
Congrats, @SparrowTales! So super happy for you!!!!!
My FET went pretty well. RE said everything went perfect. Today i'm 3dp5dt(FET), so I'm hoping this week goes by quickly because I can't wait to test.. I want to see the BFP soo badly! They transferred two, and it was exciting to see the picture (I'll attach it below). They look so different but they said they were great. I hope they keep growing! No real symptoms, which is weird.
How are you all doing? I can't wait to join you all on PAIF boards and such..
Hi! I have been on the Jan/Feb board but have semi lurked all of the other threads since November. I was curious to see if anyone happened to have any Gonal F left over? We have to order our meds this week and I am afraid we might not have enough cash, so I'm starting to panic. I am trying to find any way to save money lol I did find some of our meds this way and Im so thankful, so I'm trying to find this one to also help. We did get compassionate care, but it is still $2100 just for that med. If someone does, please PM me. Thanks ladies

I'm starting to freak out a bit, so I may need to stay off of thebump and Dr. Google for a few days. I'm having very light pink spotting going on. only when I wipe (sorry if tmi). I'm 5dp5dt(FET). Thank you @Alyenna for the well wishes! Keep your fx for me.
Oh @Piperella - I remember reading the Sept/Oct IVF thread religiously and how someone said spotting was a good sign for that group! I hope that's the case for you. Just in relation to your other post, I was shocked by how different my embryos looked too! Best of luck! Keep us posted!! I have everything crossed for you!!
@twomommiestobe - I wish I did have some Gonal-F to give you. I just almost puked when I threw away a vial of Menopur I had left over.

Ahh, I somehow missed this @takethelongway We switched to follistim bc we could buy it cheaper. DW is now on day 3 and goes tomorrow for her first monitoring. If for some reason they need to up the dosage, we will need extra and I'll PM you. Thank you sooooooo much

My ultrasound at 7 weeks showed one very healthy baby! I only had one to transfer so I wasn't expecting twins.
So happy for you @SparrowTales!
