KB - So sorry to hear your news. I just don't get all of this IF stuff. It is so disappointing, sad and frustrating!!!

Golde - Glad your mom is back home. I hope yall live close to one another so you can visit with her often.

Isaisa - Congrats on your BFP!!! I understand the cautious excitement!!!

Curious - Try to stay positive. I know it isn't easy but remember that spotting and cramping can be normal and low #'s can work out fine.

Lady - GOOD LUCK!!!

KB75 - So sorry! Was really hoping today would be different for you!

isaisa - Yay! Congrats!

curious - you're in my thoughts. I sure hope it turns out positive for you, but if it doesn't, you know we're here for you!

It feels so wrong to tell someone sorry & congratulate someone in the same breath. That's what's so evil about IF. I sure wish I could change it for every one of us.

Goldelox - so glad your mom's home. You'll definitely get through this! I didn't do ganrilex. I did cetrotide. I think they do about the same thing... but I did it & estrogen before AF... I'm starting stims on cycle day 2.

AFM - First stim shots are on board! The train's pulling out of the station! The doc wasn't kidding when she said more stims this time. Last time, I started the first evening with 300 IU of Folistim & from there out I did 150 am & then 150 pm. This time around it was 450 Folistim right out of the gate. Wow! That was a BIG shot! From here out it's 225 am & again in the pm. Let's see only 4 eggs grow this time! This time I'm predicting 10+

Hi all,
I'm new to FT and this thread. Had my first IVF in Sept/Oct and got my BFN on Oct 15th.

DH and I are going to do an FET in Nov. Waiting on final schedule which we should get tomorrow. Looking like either 11/17 or 11/23.

I'm so happy to find a group to go through this with. The hardest part is talking to friends who just don't really understand what you are going through emotionally or physically. Even my family has been a struggle. I talked to my mother about my initial IVF and next thing I new the entire family and our entire church new and constantly were asking if I was pregnant yet. For the FET we aren't telling anyone....except you ladies here.

Good luck to all!

Hello Snickers and LG17! The more the merrier! Sorry that you guys have also been through a LOT of heartache. Guess we're all sisters in that.

welcome snickers and LG

LG-unfortunately this is a lesson i think we all learn the hard way. You go into your first ivf all hopes and positivity, and when it ends badly.....well, you already know how that goes! I definitely learned a lesson about keeping my mouth shut though! Good luck

Momsie: Thanks for starting the thread! Can you switch me from stims to ER (10/28)

Snickers & LG: Welcome ladies! Glad you could join us! LG, I learned simply from telling everyone DH and I were TTC that I didn't need to share about IVF! I didn't want the constant nagging of people asking us if we were pregnant yet and I didn't want to have to tell that many people if it didn't work.

KB: So sorry! HUGS!!
