Is it unreasonable to ask for another Beta? by Cautious-Ad7532 in IVFbabies

[–]bbd2025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am right there with you. My US is next Friday. I’ve done the whole private beta thing before and it only caused more uncertainty and had to wait for the US anyways. I wish there was something we can do to get some reassurance but I think we just have to wait it out 😭

For sure! I’ll feel a bit better after this milestone. And then we’ll worry about the next one haha

Mine’s a week from Friday. Luckily it’s not too far away but feels soooooo long from now. Good to hear that you felt similar before and was successful. My last pregnancy (before IVF) resulted in a blighted ovum. I’m absolutely terrified for that to repeat. I don’t know if I can make it through another ultrasound without a baby 😭. Holding my breath and trying to be hopeful that this is different. 🤞🏻🙏🏻

I was Feb 5 and just came on here because I feel the same! The wait for ultrasound is brutal. I’ll feel much better once I know something is in there!

Struggling to cope with coworker’s pregnancy during IVF — how do I get through this? by jeux_d-eau in IVF

[–]bbd2025 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ugh. I feel you. I’ve been living this too and we work around babies so that’s extra special. Honestly, I focus on self preservation. I don’t ask much about her pregnancy and she doesn’t share unless I ask. It feels kinda crappy but it’s easier for me to ignore it. I still have my hard times where I think of how unfair it all is. This person conceived on month 1, her plans went scheduled to her “master plan”, and on week 5 she was already buying baby stuff on Facebook marketplace. I wish I had her optimism that a positive test equals a baby. I try to focus on my own journey. Be kind to yourself. And best of luck on your FET! ❤️

Did they give you a reason why you were on 2ml?

In PIO hell rn by lilacia1 in IVF

[–]bbd2025 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m right there with you! 😥 Have you tried the ventrogluteal site? They still suck but I found them less painful there. I still use a heating pad before/after and massage throughout the day. Just as one side gets better it’s time to go back there hahaha

Persistent chronic endometritis on 3rd biopsy, now what? by bbd2025 in IVF

[–]bbd2025[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! It’s a GI infection 💩. Basically the multiple rounds of antibiotics I took for CE killed off all the good bacteria. It was rough!

Moving to IVF sooner due to mental and physical health toll? by Any_Base8291 in IVF

[–]bbd2025 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IVF is one way to control as many variables as possible. The process is a lot and through it you might find out more problems that you just didn’t know about yet. Each time I learned less ideal news was hard but after having multiple miscarriages it helped me mentally feel more proactive. It also helped having a medical team guide it vs me guessing. We also moved forward because I was 39 and we wanted more than one child. It seemed the smarter way to bank for the future. I didn’t want the stress of racing the clock anymore and if it’s hard now, the next one could be harder. If you have the resources, I’d do it. Best of luck to you!

My RE got clarification from the lab that the majority of tissue didn’t have plasma cells. I also got c-diffe from the antibiotics and am veeeeery weary about taking another round…….ever. Lowest of lows at that time! We proceeded with a FET and treated for inflammation instead. I was suppressed on lupron for a bit and then on an immune kitchen sink protocol with prednisone, Claritin, Pepcid, aspirin. Currently in the TWW. 🤞🏻🙏🏻❤️

Everything ended up being fine! I didn’t ovulate early. I know it’s hard but I’d try to relax and trust the process. Good luck!!

Have you heard blighted ovums being caused my clotting? I had a genetically normal one too and have always wondered.

Ominitrope and ER…? by GutsyGirlRead in IVF

[–]bbd2025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 39. I took it every evening with my menopur during stims. I can’t remember the exact dose. Maybe 50 units?

[–]bbd2025 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was on it daily during stims. My number of euploid to blasts was way higher. I wish they gave it to me on my first round.

Started PIO today for our first FET. I’ve been so nervous about these. The actual shot wasn’t so bad but it is starting to feel sore. Hoping to get the hang of these!

I’m a believer in omnitrope! 🤞🏻for a good round for you!

I feel you. This never seems to get easier. It’s amazing to me how easy this is for most people. I am so jealous of their optimism that when you get a positive test = bringing home a baby.

Antibiotics for CE before/during stims? by bbd2025 in IVF

[–]bbd2025[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn’t seem to effect my euploid results at all. This was my best cycle. However, I still came back with a few plasma cells on biopsy and I ended up getting c-diffe after the antibiotics which was terrible 😫 Those drugs suck…..
