I am getting set to start IVF and would like to have people to share with.  My husband and I are keeping this quiet with friends and family to avoid any disappointing news.  Anyone else starting the procedure during July?

Hi all I just want to know if there are other people going through IVF at this time. the forum seems a bit quite or may be I am looking at the wrong spot.
I just went through my egg pick up yesterday. We got 4 mature eggs out of which all 4 fertilised. The transfer is supposed to be on tuesday. I just feel like I need to share what I am going through with some one who would understand what I am talking about.

I am so so sorry.  Who knows maybe your little peanut will finally appear at your ultrasound tomorrow?  Either way I wish you all the best and will keep praying for you.  Best of luck tomorrow.

My HCG still double so far, still spotting, cramps and back pain on and off.  at 6w2d, HCG >4700, RE still can not see the sac in uterus and he marks me as ectopic pregnancy and wants me to take the medicine to terminate it.  I just have another HCG this morning and will have my last U/S tomorrow.  If it's true, I got to accept it.
Keep me post yours.
Best wish.

not a good news for me
HCG 2073 on 2/10/09 (873 on 2/8/09), more than double, but RE could not find anything in the uterus at all.  He's worried for etopic pregnancy.

your number is raising good and double.  I'm sure you'll be get another good news on 2/7.

I'm bleeding since wed. night, not much, but red blood there, it makes me loosing hope.  My beta on Monday 104 (16 dp3t - not double), on Thurs. 286 (19 dp3t - low, but seem doubling), I'll have another one on 2/8.  I put myself in bedrest now since yesterday.

Ok so the waiting between appointments is driving me nuts.  My last beta wed 2/4 was good 257 and Dr. said come back in a week.  I can't wait that long so I called the Dr. and asked if I could have another beta tomorrow 2/7.  Anyway I am going back in just to see if my beta is still ok.

It's a good number.  My beta is always once every week.  Maybe I started at too low HCG, and RE won't see much change in 2 days, so let me do one a week.

Beta today of 257 from 139 Monday!!!!!!Re said even though it didn't completly double that it looks good.  Now instead of every 2 days I have to go once a week.  Not sure what is worse at least every 2 days you know whats up waiting a week seems harder.  SSBD

the nurse just called and want to do u/s on 2/10/09.  Is it too early to see something?
I believe HCG have to be over 2000 in order to see the yolk sac.  she said RE hopes to see something by then.

I just draw the blood this morning from my insurance facility not from RE office, so I won't have result back till another day or two.
I feel dizzy yesterday badly, and cramp on and off.  I got very faint line on the first beta on last Wed. and I didn't try HPT again, so I don't know the line get darker or not.
your beta level is really good.  
SSBD.

mwhitcomb-thanks for your encouragement.  It means a lot.

Level of 139 today RE says it looks good but I am worried because I am one point of doubling.  I always get into trouble at this point.  Back to RE in a couple of days for another beta.

I am so sick of all this waiting and then waiting some more and then waiting again.  

Babywanted-  How did you today?

SSBD...grow babies grow!!!!!
