Spotting 10 days post transfer- blood bhcg negative - SHOULD I JUST GIVE UP HOPE? :(

[hope_floats]

Hello everyone.
I'm on my 10th day post ET. Lastnight after a very taxing work day, i came home to some dark brownish (threadlike) discharge. I smiled in the bathroom thinking "YES, this is a sign of implantation!". I went to sleep with a smile on my face, a prayer in my heart, and both hands hugging the baby-to-be in my belly.
I woke up this morning to find fresh red blood (only staining the toilet paper though). This continued throughout the day. I got worried, rushed to do a blood bhcg test. It was only 1.58 which is considered negative. My progestron level was only 7.9 (using Cyclogest vaginal suppositories, 200mg every 8 hours).
Like I mentioned, this is my 10th day. My 3rd IVF (ICSE) attempt. I can feel the hope in my heart slowly and gently letting go of my hand which is trying so desperately to grasp on.
PLEASE HELP. Does this mean I cant be pregnant? I feel like giving up. My nickname is staring @ me "hope_floats"..... but its starting to sink.
If u have ever felt the dispare in my heart right now, plz plz plz reply.
Has anyone had a negative blood test as far as 10 days post ET, and still came out to be pregnant?
Has anyone had bleeding like mine, and again still came out to be pregnant?
Thank u for taking the time to read, and hopefully reply. God bless all of u who r still running on hope and faith.... and may He strengthen those who like me feel like giving up.

Thank you all for taking the time to reply to me.

I'm not pregnant :(    I could have sworn that I was. I had all the symptoms.

The bleeding became heavier. My doctor said that it was my period. I stopped the cyclogest. And sure enough, it just got even heavier, with clots, and all the usual lowerback pain and cramps that always come with my period.

I am so depressed. I've been crying for the past two days. I actually started taking Prozac cuz I was just so depresed... but I haven't seen any change from that.
I had done what u suggested misty and took 2 days off work afraid that i was pregnant and with a "Threatened Abortion". Now i realize that i just wasted 2 vacation days to nurse a period !! :(

I have 3 failed attempts of IVF with ICSE. I'm so afraid of trying again. Will it ever work? Will I ever be a mommy? I will celebrate my 9th anniversary next week. Thats 9 years of trying to start a family. I no longer enjoy having an anniversary or birthday cuz they just remind me that I'm getting older and my chances are decreasing.

I'm sorry for venting here. I just dont know who else to talk to.

Are you still bleeding? Implantation bleeding is supposed to last only about a day... I bled 7 days past my ET and I did end up pregnant!

To address your other question, I think everyone has their "breaking point." I have gone through 4 IUIs and 1 IVF before I got my positive (and there's still no guarantees it's going to stay that way), and if you had asked me just a year ago, I would have said that I would NEVER go through that many treatments! I even told my husband that IUIs is as far as I'd ever get, ha! Well, when I thought that this IVF had failed (when I started bleeding), I was already planning another treatment, back on the horse! You are still young (yes, you are!), so please give yourself more time! I wish you all the best :)

Hey I never did IVF but I was on clomid and I had that brown discharge then some more dark red when I wiped and a llittle on my panties (sorry TMI) I thought it was ovulation bleeding but never ovulated finally I took a HPT and it was POS. I think anything is poss. in 2004 the Dr. told me I would never have children of my own I was devistated and guess what I have a beautiful healthy son and I am pregnant woth my second. Don't give up!!!
