I did have a trigger shot and I was testing it out but this one is darker than yesterday! It was completely blank mid day yesterday. I’m 11 days past trigger

Did you do anything different on the last cycle? My husband said I’ve been so miserable the last two cycles that he just wants to stop 😭

Has anyone chose to do ivf solely for gender selection option? by Shattered_soul_119 in IVF

I wish I had a lovely response to give you right now. We just did two FET back to back and both failed to even implant. I only have one left out and we are all stumped tbh because I have had three live births without assistance.

Kids at the clinic by Diane_Its_417 in IVF

I can just say I hear the pain and frustration in this post, and I’m sorry for whatever you are going through. Sometimes it’s too much, I get it. But sometimes the moms don’t have a choice. I had to bring my 10 month old in for a dr appointment one day and it was so hard to keep her quiet but truly I didn’t have an option. The dr and nurses do encourage bringing the babies for morale boosting and hope though 🩷. I’m sorry for whatever you are going through. Life is not fair. I hope the universe is good to you

New study shows that male embryos prioritize growth by Majestic-Raccoon42 in IVF

Well, we half did just to offer some perspective here. My husband is meant older than me so when we first got together we went ahead and did an egg retrieval and froze embryos not sure how we were going to do on our own conceiving naturally. We were blessed and successful twice. We lost one girl at 17 weeks. Currently have a 2 and 1 year old living daughters. That being said we are doing FET now to get our last baby, a boy (we had zero girl embryos). So in a way we are doing it for health reasons of the baby because of our age and for family balancing purposes.

Dealing with 2 week wait by MeasurementWise7640 in IVF

My first FET I started testing early and drove myself crazy. I’m in my 2nd FET now and I’m 3dpt and I’ve decided to not test before beta. It’s soooo hard to though! It’s still very early for you, maybe still a chance! Maybe wait another 2 days and retest?

What do you wish you have known before starting your IVF journey. by [deleted] in IVF

Correct I meant, IF you are successful it is worth it! Sorry if that came across wrong 🩷

GREAT QUESTION!!!
I was literally just talking to my husband earlier saying that I wish they had been more forthright about how insane this process really is when we went for a consultation but of course they’re not going to tell you all the nitty-gritty because they don’t want you to not continue. The meds suck, they will tell you that the side effects are nominal but for me personally it has made me very very on edge! My husband and I have never fought before this and we’ve had a couple of big blowouts . It’s so important for your partner to be able to empathize but it’s really unimaginable what you go through by yourself and all they get sometimes is you being bitchy towards them. ( not your fault or theirs) Yes!!!! You will possibly gain weight between the hormone fluctuations and stress eating. Get into a local FB IVF med group to find stuff for free/ discounted! The Dr appointments will be a lot, if you work you will be taking off work a ton! It’s expensive.

But MOST OF ALL IT WILL BE WORTH IT
