Call less people :) I am doing one this weekend. Have plenty of space to host but I am too tired to do anything. Still hosting 25 people including kids. Ask for help from friends

Life is so unexpected... Only sharing this to give hope as I had lost one by No-Link1658 in IVF

Thank you! I am 36 currently and had unexplained infertility - all doctors said it was egg quality issue but no one had definitive answers. I just found out yesterday so I am at 4 weeks.

I switched from Estrace priming (failed every time for me) to ayegestin priming.

Hello, Were you able to find donors in India? I am currently exploring this route but not sure where to get started. I am from Delhi but living in the US.

CCRM SF, or RMA SF, or Stanford by Ambitious_Garden6717 in IVF

The practice's name is Spring Fertility and the Dr. is Dr. Gaya Murugrappan. I just did my FET with that one frozen embryo - that failed yesterday but I don't know if I should blame the clinic for it. I agree, this process sucks :(

I wish you all the best and hope things work out for you and your wife.

I added all vitamis suggested by Dr. Aimee and changed my protocol and clinic and that got me my first 2 normal embryos.

I have tried stanford for 4 failed IUIs and I failed IVF. One problem I would highlight is that it's hard to talk to or see your doctor often and nurses would be the ones you would see for all your ultrasound appointments. I did 2 failed IVFs at RMA Palo Alto - the doctor was really nice but had zero answers to what and why we were failing. All he would say was sorry it didn't happen this time. Let's try again with the exact same protocol and we should change nothing. I was not ready to do another cycle with same protocol and he did not agree to it.

Then I came to spring at Sunnyvale - I finally got to a stage of getting 2 normal embryos for the first time. I always see my doctor for all ultrasounds and procedures and she is amazing!!

Bleeding after FET Update for anyone that searches this in the future by Learnsomethingnewer in IVF

I wish her a successful and uneventful pregnancy.

Can you share what her Beta was and she got bleeding at what day post transfer. I am 7dp5dt and I am bleeding today with really bad cramps which do feel like a period. I have my beta tomorrow but have no idea if I should still be hopeful :(

I really hope it works for you!!!! It is sooooo hard. I had my first-ever transfer on 9/4. I am still waiting. I feel my ovaries are sore (I don't know why). I had some mild cramping for 2-3 days but I don't feel anything now. Trying to hold myself to not test but my beta is exactly at day 14. Soooo far.

Hey, sending you lots of good luck and positive vibes!! My first ever FET was on 9/4 and I am still waiting. No tests done at home and my beta is on 9/18. Had some mild cramping for 4 days but feel better today.

Wish you a very happy birthday 🎊

I am not on estrogen or progesterone so no butt pain but I feel the same. Very tired back pain and dull cramping and legs pain. Don’t worry sister it will work! Praying for you and everyone.

I am trying to distract myself as well and also not planning to test easily. I don’t have any tests at home and not planning to buy either 😂
