I'm so sorry sweetie, your time will also come... I think your clinic may ask you to do a HCG test...

Sending you loads of hugs.

I think it depends what area you live in and I think FETS might be covered under the one cycle but not sure. We've had to pay for all our treatment because my husband had a vasectomy x

Sorry luv but what’s FETS stand for? We’d pay a million pounds for a child if we could x

FET is frozen embryo transfer. So if you managed to freeze any embryos from this cycle. X

Crazymrsrees79 in reply toMrsTM13

Ah ok, we had no frozen. I’m also thinking if I should of gone with just the one embryo instead of 2, one of them was a little behind but slow growing so wether my body concentrated more on that one. I just keep on wondering what if x

I know it's hard but don't torture yourself with what ifs. Focus on your plan for moving forward to next cycle, get your vitamins started now for egg equality etc and go into your review appointment with your clinic ready to go. Easy for me to say as I did the same as you with our chemical, miscarriage and BFN so I went into this cycle all guns blazing. I've been told if you question doing something then think hard about the decision as you'll do exactly what you're doing now and asking what ifs. Every cycle we've been advised not to transfer two and were told this time in particular they strongly felt that if we transferred our two best that both would have implanted. Easy for them to say as really it's all a game of luck I think x

I suppose the first cycle is a learning curve in a way. I’m on folic acid 5mg, vitamin d and bit b complex. They didn’t say so take any other vits. Thanks for the info luv x

MrsTM13 in reply toCrazymrsrees79

Awww Im so sorry, its really hard when you get a BFN. The clinic should arrange for a follow up appointment and they'll let you know if they want to change anything for next time. Perhaps plan something nice to do as a reward for having to go through all of this. Sending hugs xx

They do say that your first cycle is like an experiment so hopefully they've learned from this cycle!!x

Crazymrsrees79 in reply toLopsi78

It’s hard hun, hope you’re ok? Were you on progesterone? They think I haven’t had my period because of the pessaries, I’m a week late xx

Lopsi78 profile image
Lopsi78 in reply toCrazymrsrees79

Yeah, progesterone pessaries. Glad at least I don't have to use them! X

Crazymrsrees79 profile image
Crazymrsrees79 in reply toLopsi78

I’m glad I don’t have to use them anymore also. When are you going back for an appointment? x

Lopsi78 profile image
Lopsi78 in reply toCrazymrsrees79

i just have to wait until they contact me - which I have been told can take up to 4 weeks, which feels so long. I had thought they get you in straight away to try and figure what went wrong, but i dont this they even test you - its just one of those things sadly.
