Jeppy....where are you?? (pregnancy mentioned)

**katiecaskey** · 06-12-2006, 06:27 PM

I asked my RE to do mine 48 hours apart and he said no because many pegnancies take 72 hours. So I do not get another till Wed. I hope either way it is cut and dry this time. I am getting so attached and can not help it. Is this how chemical pregnancies go? or what is this? I know the positive is that we could just be slow starters but what else could it be?

**jeppy** · 06-13-2006, 11:17 AM

Katie,

My other RE (I have a team of two) said that it could be a Blighted Ovum and very unlikely it could be a Ectopic. She said Ectopics are very rare in IVF cause the blasts/embroys are put in the uterus and it is very unlikely they would move into the tubes...but they will look at the U/S.

My RE also like me to come in every 72 hours...she said if I want I could go in on Wed. but she would prefer Thursday. But if I wait till Thursday then that means I can not go in again until Monday....I guess what it comes down to is they are just numbers-RIGHT?

Wishing we get through another day with smiles

Well thank God, I can not have any more tubal pregnancies. been there, done that, lost both tubes. I can tell you that they were painful very early and my guess is that if they went anythinglike mine you would be aware. I have done alot of searching and blighted ovum as my guess too. Chemicals usually end within a few days and we have passed that. This is the part that sucks. Blighted Ovums can go on for weeks but they will always end in a failure. I am not smiling. I have tried and I just can not be happy about this. This is my 4th pregnancy. At what point do you just give up and move on to adoption where you know for sure that your money, time and emotions are going towards your dream and not away from it? I am almost to that point. I do pray that things end, begin, whatever for both of us. Let's just keep talking. Is this your first pergnancy? Do you have any frozen embryos? How do you make it though the day smiling?

This is my first IVF and first pregnancy....and I too dread that this is as pregant as I will ever get. I am soo worried that this is a sign that we will have this as a result for all our future FET/IVFs.
I am so sorry to hear that this is your 4th pregnancy. Have they all ended with m/c or chemical pregs?

I have 11 frozen blasts but not sure about the quality. RE said they have never had a pregnancy come from an FET...great now I am really hopeful!!!

I too have a hard time smiling. I catch myself sometimes about to cry out of no where. I do smile when I play with my kitties at home or my dh makes me laugh (he's good at it).

Have you had any immune testing done for you and dh? We are thinking about it but RE said to wait and if we have another issue like this in the future then we should do it...thoughts?

**katiecaskey** · 06-13-2006, 12:33 PM

This is my first uterine pregnancy. The others were all ectopic. In the end I found out I was born with a kink in my tubes that stopped the embryo from traveling. Instead it just stopped and impanted there. I even had aheart beta with my first baby. Dh and I have no known immune issues. Every test we have done has checked out. I have blast but am unsure about how that would work out. I am unsure about alot right now. So are you going for beta in the morning? I am and am very nervous but at the same time ready for some answers. In normal life these days would not go by so slowly but when we are in beta hell and playing this game with the life of our baby, it last forever!! I am prepared for the worst though and hoping for the best.

**jeppy** · 06-13-2006, 01:20 PM

Katie - I am going to go in on Thursday for my next beta.
You have to tell me how it goes as soon as you know anything!!!
At least you do not have your tubes anymore to get in the way of things!!! That is one thing less to worry about

Sorry it had to happen that way though -SUCKS!

It too feel like whatever is meant to happen will happen. If this is not our healthy baby that we have been waiting and praying for then I know God will end this as soon as possible.

Every time I take a step I am reminded by the pain in my rear that this is going on!!! I still hate these PIO shots - GRRRRRR

**katiecaskey** · 06-13-2006, 02:36 PM

Yes I will let you know as soon as i know about my beta. You know dh is in Iraq so he is not here for me right when i get the news. I depend on alot of you ladies for my support system and what a great one it is. Jeppy I was only on PIO till my first beta when progesterone came back low so I had to go on suppositories which I hate!!! I will take the shot any day before those nasty things. I do my own shot in either thigh or my right butt since i am right handed and it is also sore. I agree with you in that God will let this end ASAP if this isn't our healthy baby.

Hi Katie & Jeppy, I'm sorry you're going through this craziness...just wanted to say hello and that I'm thinking about you and praying for a positive outcome for both of you.

Diana

**katiecaskey** · 06-13-2006, 03:04 PM

Thank you Diana. It is kind of ironic becasue Jeppy and I became a part of May Flowers in the very beginning and had about the same ER and ET dates and now going through beta hell together. i too pray for both of us that we beat the odds!!! Thank you for your kind words and support.

**teachergirl** · 06-13-2006, 07:11 PM

Katie and Jeppy- I am also thinking about you! I really feel for both of you.
