Negatives 8dp5dt… I think I’m out this round

We’re on our 2nd FET and I was so hopeful that this would be the one… only to be staring at negative tests this morning.

Has anyone had stark negatives at this point that turned positive? Clutching at straws.

Mentally preparing for our 3rd and final embryo from our first cycle. Hoping we don’t have to start from scratch again with an egg retrieval.

It’s tough but stay positive! Did you do PGT?

I just had my daughter Aug 17 thru IVF so miracles do happen 🥰

no PGT testing. We had genetic screening done on both my partner and I which didn’t flag anything that my clinic was concerned about so they suggested not testing. We are both 28 so they thought age would go in our favour for now.

congrats!

Don't give up I'm 42 and and now 3 months pregnant with twins. It took me 3 years. 5 rounds of ivf and 3 egg extensions and 2 miss carriage. Then the first time I did a double embryo transfer they have both taken.

thank you for sharing your story! It’s great to hear some success.

age is indeed on your side! I’m 40 and have been doing ivf since 37. After 7 transfers & 3 miscarriages we finally decided to do PGT for the third cycle, and the first normal one sticks!

You might want to get tested for NK cells & immunological issues if you have recurrent implantation failures. There are also tests like ERA that can identify different uterine implantation windows. You can discuss with your doctor and see what next. Hopefully you won’t need any of this and the next one sticks!!! Good luck!!!

thank you! I really appreciate it.

We had a miscarriage in April which after that I changed my entire diet to be dairy free, gluten free & anti inflammatory to help also as I’m concerned about a possible hidden immune issue. I’ve had full panels done but my sister has a type of HAE which isnt detectable on tests currently. She had a healthy natural pregnancy which gives some hope, but just absolutely exhausted after this round.

I know how you feel. My experience is that it really gets easier with experience because you will get ‘used to’ the ivf protocol and just go with it with a ‘controlled sense of hope’ if that makes sense? Don’t despair of course and I believe everyone has their turn eventually!!

Chemical pregnancy or too early ?

I did a test last night and straight away the positive line came up. When I tested again this morning it’s negative. My period isn’t due until Tuesday but feeling really crap and pregnant for the last week

I'm so not meant to be a mother.

My kids won't listen to me get into stuff when they know they aren't supposed to. Telling me no all the time. Only listen to their dad. Laughs when I correct them. I spend most of my time yelling at them because they don't want to listen to me at all. My husband said that I shouldn't have kids. And I am believing him on it. I was never meant to be a mother now. I won't hurt my kids I just want to disappear and make everyone else's lives better without me.

One and done… or not?

32ftm. I’m starting to feel so much pressure to have another baby soon as I wean from breastfeeding so they can be close in age and be friends, but I don’t feel ready for pregnancy and newborn trenches again 😭 my husband and I are all we’ve got. Having just one baby without a village has been really tough. Am I being unrealistic wanting another one soon?

EllaOne

I had a positive ovulation test yesterday and had unprotected sex the night before. I took the EllaOne pill last night. Has anyone had this before? Was it effective if you’d already seen the positive ovulation?
