Repeat failures, BFP-ish and the 2ww

Posted 30 August 2015 - 03:34 PM
So this month was fresh cycle #4.. Entire cycle was a mess (elevated progesterone, not great resopnse to meds, office forgot to give the neupogen intra uterine while I was asleep..) etc.. Doc wanted to cancel due to elevated progesterone and do a frozen later since we only got 4 embryos (1 didn't make it).. But I said nope, I already did the scratch and the intralipids and the fortune in neupogen let's just do it.. So now i'm 6dpt after 2 so/so 5days blasts.. And of course unable to wait I had to POAS (x6).. And the results should be in a pic below.. Yep.. Clear as mud.. Nothing in my life ever happens the way it normally would so Ive learned to accept that and go with it.. This just makes me laugh..
Since I can't get the pic to load yet it went like this.. First FPL (ever in my life) last night, 2nd FPL 20 min later (because I didn't believe the first one) then another FPL 2* later (different brand).. Then a digital PREGNANT at 0745.. Then a BFN at 945.. Then a BFN at 1145 (digital).. Then a BFP at 1245 (digital).. Lmafo.. Obsessive? Enh.. Maybe.. Laughing? Definitely.. Nothing's easy with the IVF crap.. Why would this be any different?

Please keep us posted how the next few days go with the poas when does your clinic do betas? All fingers and toes crossed! !!!

To have a better test result you have to have concentrated urine, so no bathroom break for at least 4 hours. Digital tests are not as sensitive. FRER is fairly reliable and measures HCG of about 25 and up.

Did you test out your trigger, Arrgh? I tried testing out my trigger after my last IUI, and the day after I finally got a negative test, I had a very faint positive line. I was over the moon, but the next day was BFN again...I think the faint line was just more concentrated urine than the day before, and was still picking up the Ovidrel.
But if you're sure your trigger is gone (or you used a Lupron trigger) that sounds like a BFP to me. Enough HCG for any test to pick up is good news this early in the game.

Welcome to the site, arrgh.
Beta numbers don't really correlate with the number of embryos implanting. There's a huge variation in beta numbers between women and even between pregnancies for the same woman. The only reliable indicator of the number on board is ultrasound.
You may find the betabase site useful: www.betabase.info
Fingers crossed!

Is it weird to be anxious or nervous that it might've actually worked?
Never thought it would.. Kind of an exercise in futility just to know I tried everything.. Now at this age I'm having a moment of holy crap mode..
And I don't want to share that it could've maybe worked with anyone but on here.. Not even my mate.. Just don't want questions until I know for sure..

Sounds promising and yup, we always think we managed one hurdle and then there is the next, the ultrasound, hang in there.

Ugh.. We still have 5 slow blast frosties so even if the is a chemical or something funky at least I know the implantation protocol worked and they're finally on the right treatment track.. Need a few betas before I put any faith in this..

As the stories above illustrate, the lines of hpts often have more to do with the amount of dye in the production run than they do with the amount of HCG secreted in urine. That's just one of the reasons that using hpts to chart the progress of pregnancy is not recommended even by the manufacturers, who would surely benefit if they could.

That sounds like a perfect number for 9dp5dt - I was at 152 with my son at that point I can't help you with the estrogen question as my clinic only draws betas after transfer.....
try not to worry too much about spotting - it can be and often is totally normal in early pregnancy !!
