January FET

1456810

Re: January FET

  • I’m having fever and I just took 2 Tylenol 1.5 hours ago. For the last 30 min I started covering my body with wet towels. It’s like I’m back in the 1800s.

  • Loading the player...
  • So, it looks like another failed transfer for me. Ugh just frustrated as this was our sixth fet and I was so hoping this would be it. Planning on doing an era for an unmedicated cycle- we did two for a medicated cycle so maybe the timing is off for natural as well. 

    Hoping everyone else has better results!! Lots of luck and positive news!!! 
  • @rachelbeth130 I’m so sorry to hear that!!!

    @tnh0413 I’m still not good. Still taking two Tylenol every 6 hours (including in the middle of the night). I feel very weak. I’m not feeling better. But I’m also not feeling worse. So I guess that’s good. I’m already on day 4 of this flu :( (and also 4dp5dt)
    as for beta it’s next Monday which will be 12dp5dt

  • @rachelbeth130 Did you POAS or do a beta? My spreadsheet shows that you had your FET the day after mine and I'm not scheduled for my beta until this Thursday. Maybe my office just waits a little longer. Sorry to hear it didn't work for you this time. I wish you all the best going forward!

  • Morning ladies,
    Quick PIO question... today is only day 3 of PIO but last night I had a killer headache that kept me up puking all night. I have gotten headaches most of my adult life but I have never had one so bad it made me throw up. Any chance this is related? I’ve seen some other women mention the PIO headaches but last night was ridiculous. Just trying to decide if I should contact my RE or normal Dr. or what.

    FET #1, Feb 2018 - 
  • @Mando15 I’ve not had any headaches from PIO, but again I don’t usually get them. I’ve not heard much about it. It can mimic pregnancy symptoms, and I think I’ve read before pregnant hormones can increase some people’s migraines? So maybe that could have something to do with it. It definitely doesn’t hurt to call your RE to ask!!

    @mando15 That is awful. I didn't get many headaches, I would call the Dr. just to make sure! 

    AFM I had my first appointment back today, we are moving forward with our 2nd FET and the date is looking like 2/20. We are leaning towards doing two embryos, the Dr. still would prefer one, but she is more OK with doing two this time.
  • @Mando15 I would definitely call your RE... especially with your transfer coming up so soon! Hopefully it was just a migraine and it will subside. 

    @bdaisy2761 Great news! Good luck with FET #2 in February! I hope they are super sticky!

  • @Mando15 I suffer from migraines but never got a headache from PIO. Got many headaches from Lupron but never from PIO. I think you should call your RE. Puking all night doesn’t sound right to me. 

    @bdaisy2761 I hope next transfer will be the one! FX for you!

    AFM... went to acute care clinic today. Since I’ve been having chest pains wanted to get checked after 4 days of fever... the good news is that my lungs sound good. But that it can be up to 10 days. I do feel a little better (symptoms wise) but fever is still here. I really hope my lil embryo is sticking around in spite of all this!!!

  • Anyone been checking E2 and progesterone levels? Few days before transfer my E2 was 314 and today I'm 6dp5dt and it dropped to 97... does it mean the transfer didn't work?

    @prudence9-2 I'm thinking and praying for you today. Get lots of rest and I hope that your condition would get better soon.
  • @prudence9-2 my clinic doesn’t test estrogen so I’m not sure! When is your beta? Will they at least call you after the estrogen level to talk? 

    Do we have anymore transfers this month? I couldn’t go back to find the spreadsheet.

    *TW* AFM, trucking along. My first US is scheduled on 2/12, so I would be right at 7weeks then. I’m having lots of sensations down there almost like a deep cramp that feels like a period wanting to start so I’m a bit freaked out. I’ve put a call out to my clinic this AM. *TW*

  • @prudence9-2 Sorry, I can't help you. They haven't done any blood work on me since 9 days before my transfer. 

    @tnh0413 Mando15 has her transfer tomorrow. That's the last one for our group. Hopefully your cramp is just normal for the stage you're in and nothing to worry about. Try not to worry too much. I'm hoping for the best for you! 

    @Mando15 Thinking of you for your transfer tomorrow! Hoping everything goes well! 

    AFM, my beta is tomorrow... finally! This TWW is no joke. So hard not knowing. I'll keep you all posted when I find out.

  • @tinjp78 @tnh0413 @Knottie17863111 thanks!

    @Mando15 good luck!

    AFM... day 7 after transfer. And day 7 of the flu. I’m finally feeling better. And fever is down this morning. Yesterday I was still having low grade fever throughout the day. I hope no fever today! 

    Im waiting to hear from my clinic if we need to add a patch because of the estrogen. 

    Other than that, I feel like I’m pregnant. I hope it’s not only in my head. I have 5 days until I go for my beta and I don’t plan to test before. Ahhh. This wait is a torture!!

    @Knottie17863111 GL at your beta tomorrow! I will be thinking about you :) FX for great numbers!

    @prudence9-2 FX for you too my dear! I have been so terrified about getting the flu during this process. I hope you get great numbers at your beta on Monday. Definitely a good sign that you feel pregnant!

  • Hey gals,

    **TW** Got a call earlier this afternoon that my results are negative. We have a follow up call with our doctor in a few minutes. I only had 2 embryos and I transferred one. My other embryo is a 7 day blast so we are leaning towards another round of IVF, especially while I'm still under 35 (my signature won't let me update it, but I'll be 34 in a few months). 

    We are considering using the Colorado Center for Reproductive Medicine for our next round because their success rates are significantly higher. We have a call with a doctor there scheduled for this evening and if they want to accept me as a patient then I will be flying to Colorado as soon as I start my period to begin testing.

    I'm feeling disappointed, but really want to be proactive and get the ball rolling and start moving in the right direction.

  • @shauna43 Yay! Yay! Yay! Congratulations! FX for your beta on Monday!

    @prudence9-2 Thinking of you for Monday. Best of luck! 

    @Mando15 Glad the transfer went well. Enjoy your down time. 

    Thanks for the support, everyone. We just got off the phone with our RE with some ideas for how to make another round of IVF more successful. He doesn't know that we are transferring clinics though.  :#

    I have PCOS and only had a day 6 & day 7 blast that were both "fair." I had OHSS after my retrieval and an initial failed trigger shot which resulted in them not knowing if my eggs would even be good at retrieval. One big question I have is if that played a part into my low blastysis count. Out of 36 eggs retrieved (holy OHSS!), only 5 made it to blast, but 2 on day 6 and 3 on day 7... and only 2 were genetically normal. 

    The doctor sort of deflected the question about the failed trigger possibly causing poor embryo quality and after a big long explanation that seemed to go nowhere said it was my PCOS and not the failed trigger. That may be the case, but I'm curious if the new RE has another opinion. Either way, the doctor agreed that going forward he would give me even lower doses of my stims to avoid so many eggs from developing and skip the lupron trigger (to help prevent OHSS, but it didn't work to mature my eggs) and go straight to ovidrel. 

    Curious how the conversation with the new RE goes.

  • @mando15 glad the transfer went well!! Enjoy your soup and I hope for sticky sticky embabies and a quick 10 days!!

    @shauna43 yay!!!!!! That’s wonderful news. I can’t wait to hear your report Monday!!
    @Knottie17863111 I too will be curious to see if the new place will have different ideas for you going forward! Either way, it sounds like the plan will be different which will be good

  • Just got off the phone with the clinic in Colorado. The doctor seemed really good! I felt confident in what he told me and I am really happy with our choice to try something new. He suggested a couple more tests that would help and said he has worked with lots of other people with poor blast quality so that is good news for me! 

    Good luck to everyone!

  • @shauna43 yay!!! congrats on a great second beta!

    @Knottie17863111 that’s great that the talk with the new clinic was so promising! I’d be curious to know what tests he recommended. 

    AFM... feeling much better. My temp today was around 99.1. So not 98.6. But at least not too much above. I’m 8dp5dt today and still haven’t tested! Beta is on Monday!!!

  • I have been out of the loop for a bit- crazy schedule- so I need to read up and see how everyone is.  I hope everyone is well.  
    I have a question - after a failed FET , two weeks later, I had a cycle and all that, and then started BCP to prepare for the next attempt.  It is 2 weeks after the cycle, and I am having light cramping and a little bleeding.  Has anyone experienced this?  I mean like my hips are sore.  Strange.  Any thoughts?
