Jia you !Just finished... now busy bossing my husband around from my bed.... since we are enforcing 'at-least-5-day-in-bed' rule.
I only had one 'nice' blastocyst which was ready for implantation today. There are another 2 - 3 embies which made it to become blastocysts but they are still looking '50/50' according to embryologist. I am praying very hard that my little blastie digs into my lining soon, and that my other blasties grow well over the next 2 days to qualify for freezing.
Lying in bed is sooooooo hard right?

I have been through cycles where I felt hopeful with and without signs/symptoms, all BFN. In 1st fresh, felt body temp dropped 6 days before BT and cried my heart out then brown spotting started 2 days before BT which just gets heavier till bloody AF showed up. By next day I already can't bring myself to do the progesterone insert anymore.
In 2nd fresh, as I had additional PIO shots which increased PMS symptoms. Despite PIO shots, I spotted fresh red blood 2 days after the 2nd PIO jab and a day before BT. Just to be safe, they gave me a 3rd PIO shot on the BT day itself but then BT turned out BFN. Again heart-wrenchingly depressed. To worsen matters, overload of PIO wreaked havoc to my cycle and I suffered inter-menstrual bleeding so couldn't start any new ICSI cycle till in Sep.
This cycle round, I have additional PIO shots again. While I do experience some different symptoms this round, I really do not know if any is due to the progesterone raging in my body or anything I could count on for hope.
Yet yesterday afternoon, I started having some brown spotting and it just reminded me of my first cycle. I told DH it's over and literally cried my heart out till I slept. It was our 14th anni and I felt so sorry. I know it's silly to self-pity, but i felt so bitter why I have to endure such a cruel joke.
I think no matter how many BFN you have been through before, it just doesn't make you better able to handle another BFN. Def not for me. I have not mustered the courage to do hpt and there is nothing more I can do now, really just to wait out.
Jia you everyone! all the best
Yup..my DH is happy that i don't have to go through a surgery again. Thanks for having me in mind. Ha!

Dear Dawn88,
Everyone here hopes to get BFP however it will not be so all the time. We all have experienced sad moments and it's never easy to face BFN. Don't feel so negative now because you have yet to do hpt. Whatever happened in your past cycles doesn't mean it will be the same this time.
You did your best in preparation and that's what you should tell yourself. You did a good job so far. Sometimes we cry to release, however we have to move on after that.
There is still hope for you, don't lose heart, hang on my dear. It ain't over till it's over. We are all here to support one another.

Hospital just called to say that the rest of my blasties didn't qualify for freeze grade. We refused to allow them to dispose and told them to freeze the embryos.
I am devastated now, and worried that there is something wrong with us which is why the blasties didn't work out well... and that the single beanie in my womb is at risk too.

Yes yes, trying and praying that I don't see red and it will go away soon. Rooting for my embies, pleassssee stick.
Hugs and I wish the best for you!
Take care and happy 14th anniversary. Maybe try to focus on celebrating your anniversary for now. As a couple you have gone though a lot together with 3 IVF and having each other through these journeys is worth celebrating! I think IVF can actually make a couple's love for each other strengthen as it shows how much we are willing to give each other because of the love and hope to build a family together.

Sometimes I see all of us as soldiers in the trenches. This is such a difficult war but we have one another. No one else understands the pain and anxiety we go through.
Hi tsf0205, have you tried elonva before? I have low amh and elonva works got me. Managed to retrieve 4follicles whereas with the other stimulating drugs, none was being retrieved.

Hi, I used elonva before I had low AMH.... It's sad... I see post of ppl having low AMH but yet able to stimulate folicles. But my follicle stimulation is very slow... 2 cycles of IVF and growth is slow... Doc says slow could mean poor quality... Sometimes I wonder if I have good eggs left...

I am with Dr Stephen Chew at NUH.
My DH has azoospermia and he recently underwent a Testis Biopsy. The urologist managed to find sperms in his testis and they have been frozen. We have also done all our bloodtest and completed the counseling session.
Now all that's needed is for me to give the clinic a call when my period arrives in Nov. I only intend to start my IVF cycle in Dec.
Don't give yourself too much worry and stress! Have faith that eventually all will be well
Thanks for your encouragement.
Gotten the result from the doctor and all seems ok...
Just done the last blood test and gg back to see the doctor again on 16/10/2015
I just hope we are able to start the procedure soonest....

Pardon my ignorance. By blasties, I am assuming they are blastocysts?

Really? I didn't know that. I did not do any comparison cos my gynae was the one who referred me to the doctor in SGH.

Dear ladies. Thank you for your encouragement. Unfortunately red bleeding started past noon so I called the clinic & they made me go down for a PIO jab immediately. They do not want to do BT yet cause they said it's still too early. By now bleeding has increased to like AF like previous cycles. Good thing that DH took urgent leave to accompany me. Not having much hope. We grieved hard and discussed next steps. Now it is really matter of letting wounds heal and move on.
Jia you everyone! Hope we all get our hearts' desired child soon.

Oh. Didn't know about that. Cos I was given choice between kkh, nuh & sgh when I asked for referal letter from the polyclinic. Chose sgh as it's the most convenient from my workplace & home lor. Didn't do any research on the cost then...

Hi sisters, I'm sorry to ask but for those going thru failed pregnancies, how long did it take for u to feel back to normal.
My last beta taken last Thurs was 29, down from 73 on 21/9. These 2-3 days, been having tingling sensation in left boob, heartburn and some nauseous feeling. I didn't have them last week. Stopped all progesterone support since Thurs too

Last Thurs, after passing out the big chunk of fetal tissues, I continue to bleed/spot till Saturday then there's nothing till now. This was after 11 days of blood flow. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to have anymore menses / bleeding. I read that some sisters have blood flow following a mc.

Yes dear... I was trying to give them a cuter name than Blastocysts. My friend says when I say that, I sound more like a scientist than an aspiring mother.
