3rd Ivf treatment

by maoridoll1 on Nov 15, 2009

Hi all,
I'm rather new to this site & hoping that someone can help me out. I am a mother of 3 children & had my tubes tied after my last child. I had gone through 3 C/S with my kids & decided to have my tubes done in 1991 & now I am 39 years old.

I have remarried to a wonderful man who has no children of his own. We had been talking alot about going to a IVF Clinic here in Sweden & so this year we had our first ivf treatment which started off with the noise spray x4 then after a few weeks of that I started the injections at 250 x1 day. After going for the first ultra-sound everything was going good, so they upped the injection to 400 x1 day. The retrieval day came but none of the eggs developed, so we tried again. 2rd treatment everything was fine & now my injection was increase to 400 x1 day. The retrieval day was sent for the 16th June & we had a 2 day wait, which seemed forever. On the 18th June they started with 6 eggs then from that 2 were good, but on the day of transfer we got 1 A grade egg. We were over the moon. I did my 2ww P/T & it was positive, but by the 4 th after the positive I started to bleed & it went on & off for over a week...I was truly down & out. Then the bleeding stopped & I was feeling still pregnant...no pain no nothing! Then I got to 7 weeks & 4 days into the pregnancy & that blow me away. It was like somebody had turned on a tap full blast & it wouldn't stop. Call emergency clinic that afternoon & the doctor did an ultrasound & saw that the embryo wasn't attached enough & that is why I had the miscarriage.

Now I am on my 3rd ivf treatment & they started me on the highest dosage of injection 450 x1 day. I started in 26th September of this year then on the 27th October day of retrieval. They collected 9 but of those's 9 eggs there were only 5 that were good enough to continue. On the 29th October we had really good news from those's 5 we could transfer 2 eggs & that truly made my day. My husband & I both cried with joy...but still we had that long 2ww! On the 13th Nov I did the P/T & it came out positive but being affraid I checked to make sure that it was corrected & another positive. But the day after I started to spot this brownish discharge & then today the 15th Nov it has gone from brownish to red, but still no pain or discomfort just concern & worried as anything. My very first ultrasound isn't till the 1st of December...I feel so alone & my husband is so reasuring but you know that isn't enough & that is why I'm asking if anybody out there has been through what I'm going through. It will help in so many way for me to know that I'm not alone in this....!!!
