@Dragonfly6191 I'm so sorry to hear. This really sucks. But as you said, it's nice to know that you *can* get pregnant!
Cyber hugs to you

@JaeJayStark my clinic says 1 day but I think I'll do 2-3 days of just relaxation... you?!

@JaeJayStark & @Holls214 My clinic says to take it easy but back to normal activities. I stayed in the same day.
They say say no to bed rest. They say that moving is good for circulation...

My doctor said to take it easier the first day but no bed rest then after that I could do what they deemed "safe" activities like walking, swimming, biking, sex, etc.
@jfeeney06 thanks! Did the test an hour ago. But probably won't hear for another 7-8 hours

So sorry @Dragonfly6191 take that chemical as good a sign as you can! I had one 2 cycles ago so you can do it!!! Good luck next round!
@JaeJayStark my clinic has us do 3 "princess days". So the day of the transfer and the next 2 days it's modified bedrest/couch potato. So housework and such is a no no, but they do want us getting up to get our own snacks for the circulation bit. So horizontal as much as is possible/reasonable, but moving around some to keep the circulation. Good luck!
Sweet! Sounds like what I've read - to take it easy but not bed rest. That's what my place says too. Thanks ladies! @nmtay I love the idea of Princess days!

***TW*** this is my second pregnancy and second failure with a PGS normal embryo. I'm at loss. ***end TW***
im so sad right now. Not surprised though. I kinda knew it wasn't good days ago. I bet that little brown chunk was the part of the m/c....

@Dragonfly6191 & @Holls214 thanks. I'm very sad right now. And who knows how long before my hcg levels will get to 5. Last time from around this number I had about 4 weeks....
not sure what I should next. I have two more PGS normal embryos. But it seems like I'm wasting normal embryos on myself. Maybe my body can't carry for 9 months?

Thanks @Holls214 happy I found this place. Some of my friends that know are sorry for me. But don't think they can really understand it unless they go thru this.
Af first my RE didn't have availability until Sept 30th. But they called me few hours ago to tell me they were able to squeeze me in for Monday. So I'll talk to her then.

Ohhh @prudence9-2 I'm so so sorry for your news. It's heartbreaking for me to hear. I can't even imagine what it feels like to be living with this news. I hope that maybe you and your doctor can alter something to increase your chances. It's so hard to go through this journey especially multiple times. I'm glad you will be able to speak with someone Monday. Check in over the weekend if you're still feeling sad! We are all here for you!! Have a glass of wine!
@jfeeney06 thanks! I'll def check on here before Monday and I'm def drinking tonite. I'll probably go the hard liquor route though
I left work early with the excuse I have allergies (which is not a lie) but I just had to get out of there. Can't wait to be home. Couldn't really concentrate at work anyway today

Hey ladies. I had my first beta test today and I'm officially pregnant. My level was 590 so the nurse said that was great. I have my second beta Monday. I feel so happy but nervous too. I also feel guilty because some of you don't have such great outcomes with your cycle. You have been along with me through this and I've probably told you more then most of my family and friends. I was us all to be able to celebrate together!!
@jfeeney06 that's great news!!!! So happy for you!!!
And please don't feel guilty because of us and keep sharing!
Hearing about the success of other women going thru this gives me hope that maybe one day it would be me.

Back from my Dr appt. Almost didn't have to ask anything. She covered everything... So here goes... She is not recommending another IVF cycle. She thinks that most likely 60-40 that it is my eggs and not my uterus. So if we do another cycle now, before I'm 42, I won't get better eggs than what I got when I was 41. She says that having 2 PGS normal embryos that implanted just fine but then miscarry is bringing us to the more experimental territory. On one hand, she thinks it the embryos, so she hopes that out of my 4, at least 1 would be normal. Second, she's talking about immune issues. (hence the experimental territory). She mentioned prednisone but said she wouldn't feel confident giving me that as there are not many research to show the short & long term... instead, she said, she would put me on a weekly injection called: neupogen. Which is suppose to increase my white blood cells count... She said that there is more short term research with it, but so far, not yet too much long term... so she doesn't know if leukemia can happen because of it... but she would only put me on it for 6.5 weeks, so she thinks that's okay.
At some point, she mentioned why not put my two embryos just so we know quicker if one of them is good instead of having to do another FET. But, twins pregnancy is more risky and especially for someone as petite as I am.... Also, if we put only one and it miscarries as well, we can do even more experimental stuff... she then said there is one Dr in the Bay Area that does all the experimental immune procedures that she's not comfortable with... but we will see if it gets to that.
If both my embryos fail, we can then try a donor egg and if that fail surrogacy.
My problem is not implantation. 2 out of 2 implanted just fine. So other then the addition of the neupogen, she doesn't think we have to tweak my protocol.
Also, my beta is down to 100... still at least 1.5 weeks to go.... (last time from 78 it took 3.5 weeks, but since this time the m/c happened sooner, she's hoping it won't be more than 2 weeks total...)
Before going I told myself that unless she modifies something, I will not go for another FET blindly... but her addition of that weekly injection is at least something different.... So I guess I'm looking at probably October FET...
October was when my due date was suppose to be... and that is also when I'm going to turn 42....

@prudence9-2 I'm happy you got to meet with her. Sounds like some good options. Are you leaning towards something more? I think it's all worth a try. I would be a little scared of the possibility of luekemia... is that like a chance or a like a warning? Sorry to hear you are going through all of that. Thinking of you. Hopefully the next round willl be the round.
TTC 4 years. 7 failed IUI's with either Clomid, Femara and/or Trigger Shots. Started IVF journey in February 2017. Polyps removed in May. 1st IVF Transfer September 26th. BFP. Expected due date 6/14/18. Baby boy born 5/25/18 at 6 lb 9 oz. My bundle of joy.
@Holls214 yeah, reading about that injection is a little scary. I will have to ask her few more questions.
From what I can find online, they don't know yet if it causes leukemia... but the fact that they are worried about it... scares me.

Wow @prudence9-2 that is a lot of new information to consider. Just the word lukemia makes me nervous. I'm sure you will research, ask questions, and make the correct decision for yourself. Do you feel hopeful now that the doctor is suggesting tweaks?
AFM my second beta was great and I go for my first ultrasound in a few weeks.
@jfeeney06 yeah pretty scary shit. I'm going to ask more questions.
So so happy your second beta is good! When is your ultrasound?

@JaeJayStark my clinic has us do 3 "princess days". So the day of the transfer and the next 2 days it's modified bedrest/couch potato. So housework and such is a no no, but they do want us getting up to get our own snacks for the circulation bit. So horizontal as much as is possible/reasonable, but moving around some to keep the circulation. Good luck!

Hey ladies. I had my first beta test today and I'm officially pregnant. My level was 590 so the nurse said that was great. I have my second beta Monday. I feel so happy but nervous too. I also feel guilty because some of you don't have such great outcomes with your cycle. You have been along with me through this and I've probably told you more then most of my family and friends. I was us all to be able to celebrate together!!
And please don't feel guilty because of us and keep sharing!
Hearing about the success of other women going thru this gives me hope that maybe one day it would be me.

At some point, she mentioned why not put my two embryos just so we know quicker if one of them is good instead of having to do another FET. But, twins pregnancy is more risky and especially for someone as petite as I am.... Also, if we put only one and it miscarries as well, we can do even more experimental stuff... she then said there is one Dr in the Bay Area that does all the experimental immune procedures that she's not comfortable with... but we will see if it gets to that.
If both my embryos fail, we can then try a donor egg and if that fail surrogacy.
My problem is not implantation. 2 out of 2 implanted just fine. So other then the addition of the neupogen, she doesn't think we have to tweak my protocol.
Also, my beta is down to 100... still at least 1.5 weeks to go.... (last time from 78 it took 3.5 weeks, but since this time the m/c happened sooner, she's hoping it won't be more than 2 weeks total...)
Before going I told myself that unless she modifies something, I will not go for another FET blindly... but her addition of that weekly injection is at least something different.... So I guess I'm looking at probably October FET...
October was when my due date was suppose to be... and that is also when I'm going to turn 42....

From what I can find online, they don't know yet if it causes leukemia... but the fact that they are worried about it... scares me.
