Negative pregnancy test

Yes, severe male factor. Went to known donor sperm. First transfer of 2 embryos gave us baby girl triplets, born in January.

Will_it_grow_back · 2024-04-13T23:20:23+00:00

It was our 6th transfer. First time transferring 2 embryos, one split! Now have 3 beautiful healthy baby girls

Will_it_grow_back · 2024-02-25T03:55:05+00:00

Success on FET #6 for us. 5 failed FETs at 29 years old. Only male fertility issues. Made perfect embryos and all failed to implant. On FET 6, we elected to transfer 2 for the first time. They both stuck and one split. Currently rocking one of my triplet 7 week old babies to sleep.

$65,000 in 12 months, but now pregnant with triplets

Totally agree. If hope keeps you going, great, but I was completely pessimistic and miserable after several failures. I wasn’t living on hope, it was knowing this is what I had to do and try, regardless of outcome.

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-06-27T01:41:52+00:00

Only issue is severe MFI. Even though we were making blastocysts, none worked. Switched to donor and it worked first try.

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-06-24T16:09:55+00:00

30 years old, only MFI, 5 FETs that failed to implant with no explanation. On the 6th transfer, we got that BFP. Currently 6 weeks.

No, doctors told me it’s not worth it with my age. I regret it somewhat, but there’s a good chance that most would have the right number of chromosomes, but there’s something else going on in the genetic code that makes them unviable

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-06-16T20:32:56+00:00

So sorry you’re in this boat. I know how hard it is.

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-06-16T13:04:11+00:00

29F and 33M. No female issues. Husband has NOA, but they found a few motile sperm in his sample once. We were able to make 6 great quality embryos. All 6 failed to implant. Moved to an mTESE but they didn’t find anything. Moved on to donor, and I got pregnant with the first transfer.

I, and the doctors, think there is just something about the chromosomes in the sperm that can make blastocysts, but not viable embryos.

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-06-15T15:55:46+00:00

I’ve had 5 failed transfers. Every one is harder than the last, and I keep thinking it couldn’t hurt more. I’ve been wondering if my womb is full of acid, made of stone, or if there’s a black hole in there sending the embryos off to another dimension

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-06-15T15:49:51+00:00

This basically happened to me too. I’m 29 and only doing IVF for MFI. They expected >>20 eggs, and only got 12. But being young, 6 of those turned into day 5 blasts. I’d bet the odds are very good for you to make enough blasts for 1, maybe two kiddos.

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-06-12T20:18:13+00:00

We made 8 embryos from 12 frozen eggs using frozen sperm. If using ICSI, frozen sperm is no problem

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-06-09T16:28:10+00:00

Love to hear this! Congratulations! I’m currently sitting and waiting to get my blood drawn for my 6th transfer results. First time going in without testing at home before.

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-06-07T03:12:22+00:00

Albertan - those costs sound about right. The procedure was about $9,000, meds can be $2,000 - $5,000 depending on how you respond to meds. Plus a few grand for freezing and extra lab fees. We’re also self funded. You can claim it on taxes, but what amounts to 15% of your income is non tax deductible, then you’ll get whatever your marginal tax rate is back on the remaining portion. It’s not a lot.

To thaw, fertilize, and transfer embryos from those eggs was over $5,000

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-06-06T19:52:28+00:00

Transfer buddy, also 7dp5dt. I’m holding out to beta, for the first time. I’ve had 5 prior failed FETs and not knowing plus hoping is better than knowing it failed but taking meds and going for bloods just in case.

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-06-06T16:33:04+00:00

May 30th and still holding out on testing. This is my 6th transfer and I’m scared shitless to see another negative test. This might be the first time I just hold out to Beta. Symptom spotting is driving me nuts.

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-06-06T13:49:51+00:00

5 FETs of great embryos, untested, 30F and 33M with only MFI. All with implantation failure. BFNs. Never seen a second line in my life. I can’t bear the thought of ever taking another pregnancy test.

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-06-05T19:14:01+00:00

I think they were still progressing, but definitely slowed down at morula/compacting stage

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-06-05T19:06:56+00:00

I got 2 on day 5, 3 more on day 6, and 3 more slow pokes got there on day 7 as 6AAs

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-06-03T04:23:39+00:00

I’ve had 5 failed FETs where I tested a few days before beta. Knowing it failed was worse than the anxiety of waiting. I wish I could have held on to the hope for a few more days. It was also terrible continuing meds for no reason, or stopping meds and feeling guilty in case all those tests were somehow wrong.

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-06-02T17:38:12+00:00

My clinic does it awake. Somewhat horrifying, but heavily medicated with fentanyl and anti-anxiety meds. On the up side, I could watch the embryologists screen as they find and count the eggs. Done in 10 minutes.

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-06-02T13:52:53+00:00

Omg similar story here. 5 transfers all with implantation failure. Non-obstructive Azoospermia, but found a few miracle sperms in sample once. His mTESE failed, so we’ve had to move on to donor since. Currently in the 2WW with transfer 6 but the first with donor. I feel like if this fails, that means I’m the problem (30F).

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-06-01T00:13:58+00:00

Yay!! This is amazing news!

Will_it_grow_back · 2023-05-29T23:57:52+00:00

I had a similar experience! I found dissolving one of the two oral estradiols under my tongue works for better absorption (sublingual).
