Ive been married for 5 years and my DH and I have been unprotected for 7 years. We always said if we got prego we would deal with it but we never did and we put it off until we felt ready to deal with it. I have been prepping for this journey for a while.. I am finally here and ready..we had no serious known issues from all our testing. and after the first failed ivf we were devastated and i didn't know if I could deal with another one..A few days past and I was ready for the next step another ivf.We had our meeting with the DR and he was upset also..He wants 2 change the meds and start my next ivf.. I have been researching the web for everything...I guess we can just be positive this is our only hope.. bp

we got a negative with our first IVF and were devastated. Dr said we had a 90% chance of pregnancy. We switched dr. And ended up preggo with twin girls. Take some time to heal then jump back into it. I told myself ahead of time I would try 3 times and stop if the 3 rd didn't work. Good luck sometimes it just takes a few tries.

I am also doing Ivf for the 2nd time. I am wondering if there is anything i could do different, like diet or yoga .
Are u doing anything different this time around?

i ended up doing everything different, to a degree, re did alot of tests and put me on metformin for insulin issues, dexamethosone for a male hormone issue, blood thinners for a clotting issue and viola, we had a . Insist on testing prior so that you can deal with everything. good luck!

This time around the Dr put me on bcp's for a few weeks then he is stopping the lupron because of really low estrogen and putting me on something else... can't remember the name. he thinks my eggs weren't that good quality..I am changing a few things I am going to start acupuncture probably before the ER and going to continue after the transfer and no exercise after transfer maybe just slow walks.I feel scared doing so much because the more I do and if it doesn't work the more devastated I feel I will be..

It's so nice to hear a good ivf story, congrats . My Dr made it sound like I was gonna have no problem getting preggo..so when it didn't happen wow it was an awful feeling..I had to wait 2 weeks to see him after the bfn so he can tell me my eggs could have been bad and that my Estrogen only made it to 748 when it should have climbed to over 2000 to 3000 so hopefully with a changed protocol it will work this time around.. thanks for the respond I really appreciate it
