$#%&@!!! This post makes me sad and angry at the same time. My heart is breaking for you and YH-- I really thought this was going to be it for you and you'd get your take-home baby. I am thinking of you and hope you DID leave the office so you can feel your emotions without worrying about anyone else's feelings or perceptions. ((hugs))

Thank you all for so much support. I don't know what I would do without this board and all of you ladies. 

My ultrasound yesterday was done at the place that just monitors me, my RE wants to see me today and do his own scan and see what it is they are looking at and confirm the results.  For some reason they think the report is ambiguous and want to see for themselves, and do their own measurements.  That makes sense to me, but I honestly don't think there is going to be another outcome, I think we will just be confirming  what we already know. 

I did leave work yesterday at 10:30, went home and then DH took me out for lunch at the Cheesecake Factory where I treated myself to a nice fat cheeseburger and then I bought 2 pairs of boots for myself. I was supposed to be Christmas shopping but oh well.

This still hasn't hit me yet, although I did cry last night while watching a very sweet video on Facebook of a dog and a little boy with down's syndrome playing with each other.  I'm not sure if that was because of this, or that the video was the sweetest thing I have ever seen. I tend to cry at videos where animals are involved.


TTC since 3/2010. I'm 40, my husband is 47. He had a vasectomy reversal in January of 2010. We tried on our own for almost a year, then went to an RE. 6 IUIs and several cancelled IVF's and another RE later we are pregnant. 11/2012-new RE, new protocol...IVF cycle #6. 8 follicles but only 4 retrieved and 3 fertilized. 2 6-cell and 1 7-cell C grade fragmented embryos transferred on 11/12-BFP! Beta#1-55, Beta #2-153, Beta #3-593 Beta #4-2402 12/5-First u/s shows 2! One looks good, the 2nd one has no yolk sac visible so fingers crossed! 12/12-2nd sac still empty but fetal pole visible in the other sac. 12/19-No heartbeat and no growth since last week. Miscarriage. Final IVF attempt February 2013. Transferred 2 4-cell embryos, one B grade one D grade. 3/7/13-BFP! Beta #1-97, 3/11 Beta #2-1171 3/14 Beta #3-5095 Beta#4-15,580.

So so sorry this has happened. My thoughts to you and your husband.

Hx of PTL and GD, deliveries at 35 and 37 weeks. On P17 shots and modified bedrest now, a few scares but LO is hanging tough! ! Three beautiful children; 17, 13, and 9, and very excited to be pregnant with DH first child after a tough year of TTC and fertility treatments.
