November IVF buddies
Hi,
I'm doing my first IVF this November. I don't normally post on here but if there was ever a time to reach out it is now.
Anybody else?

So far nothing. Have tested the last 3 mornings, 5dpt-7dpt. I swear I see the faintest shadow of a line on this mornings test but I may just have line eye because I want it sooooo bad. It's not even something I could take a picture of and put to a vote because I know it won't show up on camera. Guess I just wait til tomorrow to try again.
On 5dpt I had a quick burst of red spotting in the evening, which is way too early for af especially since I am on progesterone but I thought it was kind of late for an implantation bleed. Since 5dpt I have had brown spotting off and on and cramps like af is coming. That combined with the neg tests has gotten me pretty down and got me thinking it didn't work...again. Hopefully I did implant late and that explains the neg tests still. Last round I didn't get a pos until 13dpt but that ended in mc so I know getting a pos that late is not good.

We have 6 blasts that made it to freeze. Was hoping for more. I know I paid for 6 rounds up front and we are only half way through that but I don't even feel like trying 1 more time. Just so sick of the disappointment. There is absolutely no reason why out of 6 great embryos none have led to a baby! It's not like I'm in my 40's! I am 27 for gods sake! Wtf!? What is wrong with me?

Thanks for all the kind words I really appreciate it. I do have an update. After I tested negative on hpts from 5dpt - 8dpt I gave up and stopped testing. Just took a little break and hung out with the dh for a low key new years, cancelled all of our plans to go out because I just wasn't feeling it. I had my beta today at 10dpt and it came back at a 6. My clinic counts this as positive but I need to go for a follow up to see if it's rising. The won't say I am officially pregnant until they are above 25.
Now I am totally in a state of deja vu because last round my first beta was a 5. After that my next 2 betas were 16 and 45 so they more than doubled they just about tripled and I got bfps on frer and a cb digital. So then I got my hopes up that maybe it would work. But then beta #4 was only 76 and didn't double. Then #5 dropped to 37, then #6 went back up to like 49 and the doctor was talking ectopic and needing a chemical abortion, then #7 went back down to 35 and I miscarried naturally at 6 weeks and finally like a month after the first beta they dropped down to 0.
So...I am really not looking forward to going through that again! It was just a month of beta hell and anxiety. I don't want to get my hopes up again. Ugh!
