Lovelyrose - Sorry to hear about your BFN. Hang in there and when you are ready try again! Sometimes it takes a few times for IVF to work so try not to get too discouraged. Next time you will be more relaxed because you know what to expect and that may be all it takes to get your BFP!

Anj - Great to hear your beta doubled! I'm sure that makes you feel wonderful to know all is going well with your pregnancy!

Angelasmara - Congrats on your BFP! Great beta!

Wishingformiracle - Good luck with your cycle! I think you have a much better chance at getting pregnant through IVF than IUI. I have endo and was not able to get pregnant...DH and I have tried for over 4 years. We finally found out I had endo and I had to have surgery. We tried naturally for 6 months and I still didn't get pregnant...so we were told IVF was our only option. It took 3 tries, but it finally worked for us! We switched RE's after the first two attempts and I really think that is what made the difference...I'm not so sure my old RE new what he was doing! Good luck!

Tisha - WOW!!! Triplets! Congrats!
