Sending hugs @waitingformyangel!! As for low lying cervix I would mention to your doctor but I imagine on screening ultrasounds they may have picked it up? I'm not sure, I didn't do suppositories, just estrace tablets and PIO injections
Am supposed to go on my CD 2 for a consultation and scan to understand what went wrong. I will also ask the possibility of a immunological disorder.. Am kind of lost..i supposedly have a perfect uterus and two perfect embroys went in...still it didnt work With my low AMH i tried to remove the issue of poor egg quality by using DE and i still get bck the same result. Any other pointers which i can pick up with my doc?would be grateful for any tips Thank you all for so much support❤❤
I’m so sorry @waitingformyangel and I think I’m now in the same boat. I had surgery before this cycle to fix everything and it’s not looking like this took. I go on Monday for beta but I’m 7dp5dt and all negatives
@waitingformyangel I am so sorry this cycle did not work, it's so heartbreaking. Thinking of you during this tough time. I think you need to take care of you, I think it's absolutely okay to allow yourself to feel and process the emotions and do lots of self care. This whole process is just so tough. Sending you guys, prayers and positive thoughts for your next round.
@italianmommy8 I am also sorry to hear you have not gotten a positive on HPT, I know how hard it is to stay hopeful when the line is not showing. Will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
To all the other ladies who have gotten positives hpts and strong betas (@jepd73, @hchill0209, @Kriztyn@ekb2016) congratulations! Wishing you all a happy and healthy 9 months!
I have my 7 week ultrasound on Tuesday, I am getting so anxious and just want to know all looks well with our little babe. I keep feeling lots of symptoms though, some nausea I can only keep down carbs, meats make me sick lately and my sense of smell and fatigue are something fierce. I am so grateful to be pregnant though so I will take whatever symptoms come my way!

I have been very inactive in here this cycle. Congrats to everyone who got their positives this month! And sorry to you all who didn’t. This process is so hard and I’m rooting for you!
I am now 5dp5dt and I had a squinter with fmu today. I’m not getting excited yet because I have had a few early positives in other cycles that ended in chemicals. So fingers crossed the lines get darker!!
Hi ladies! Today, is 4dp frozen trasfer and I’m super bloated!! I’ve been like this for the last two days- my belly is distended. Also, the night before last, I started to wake up in the middle of the night with an intense need to urinate followed by strong cramps for like an hour. Is this caused by progesterone injections?! Cramps last night as well.
@sue2019 I am right there with you! The progesterone is giving me crazy symptoms this time around! Hang in there! Just a few more days until you can test!
Ahhhhhh!!! Got a faint line last night that you couldn’t mistake! This morning 3 tests all positive!!! Crying over here! Thanks for everything ladies!! Top pic is since 4dpt5dt progression everyday 2x a day, middle pic of last night and last pic is this morning!!!!! Ahhh!!! Can’t believe it worked!!
@italianmommy8 Grats!! I know you've had some disappointments in previous cycles so I'm so happy to read your update

Beta update: 3rd beta came back good! (Days after transfer: day 10: 183, day 12: 331, day 16: 1659) my dr office changed the protocol since last time and I need a 4th beta Monday (day 19) and 1st ultrasound isn't until after 6w2d to see if they can see heart beat (last was at 6, 7 and 8 weeks and no 4th beta). And because of my work schedule I can't go in until 6w6d.
Thinking good thoughts and I hope everything is building appropriately down there.
Anxiously waiting, good luck everyone! Sending everyone positive vibes.
I think it's hilarious that Clearblue still won't change their sensitivity levels, when they're clearly behind their competitors... Congratulations @italianmommy8!
my beta came back at 24 this morning, 10dp5dt nurse called with results that I am pregnant but very concerned that beta is only 24 they like to see it above 66 or so estrogen was 206 and progesterone 34 continue Estrace and progesterone and come back in on Wednesday morning they want to see it more than double on Wednesday she said it’s rare that this will be viable I’m crushed......
Any positive rays of hope please send my way I’m struggling over here since told me it’s rare this will work with a beta of 24..,they like to see it above 66 or more please any good outcomes you’ve heard that it will work out
@italianmommy8 hugs, thoughts and prayers with you, it's so hard to hear it might not be viable and I am so sorry your going through this. I had a chemical pregnancy with my first IVF fresh cycle and it was heartbreaking and my beta also started out low (lower than yours like a 16 10dpt), but I did a ton of research and I will say, you will find lots of success stories out there with low starting betas. So don't lose all hope yet, they say it has more to do with the number doubling. I would encourage you to be cautiously optimistic as you are pregnant and there are lots of positive outcomes from low first betas out there, but I totally understand how upsetting the news is and during infertility it's so hard to not always think the worst. FX this next one is really strong beta and you had a late implanter.

Tonight’s test after holding my pee (lunch time it was clear due to all the water I drank) but I didn’t drink and held in until after work to test again. Thank you so much. Such a trying day. Hard to stay positive when the nurse told me it likely won’t be viable and it’s “rare” for a positive outcome with beta at 24. I hope it doubles, now I’m worrying like crazy.
@italianmommy8 My first beta was 60 (which I was told was lower than expected but then it doubled to 160 and now 511! Don't give up until you have to. I know it's hard and this whole process sucks (trust me, I have enough stories to write a book at this point). Sending positive vibes!!

went out and got two more brands
plus one ept and clearblue digital
i think clearblue digital is 50miu and it said not pregnant
I’m planning to wait until the day of my beta (14dp5dt) to take a digital, because I can’t handle seeing a “not pregnant” when I’m turning FRER.
my beta came back at 24 this morning, 10dp5dt
nurse called with results that I am pregnant but very concerned that beta is only 24 they like to see it above 66 or so
estrogen was 206 and progesterone 34
continue Estrace and progesterone and come back in on Wednesday morning
they want to see it more than double on Wednesday
she said it’s rare that this will be viable
I’m crushed......
please any good outcomes you’ve heard that it will work out
