Anyone actually here anymore?

[achi]

Is anyone actually active or wanting to be active on this board? I feel like so many of us have gotten their BFPs or moved over to TTTC.

I had what was now my final bloodwork yesterday and hcg levels are back at <1 thankfully. I’m supposed to have an ultrasound at the hospital on Monday to confirm that my uterus is empty but my doctor mentioned that if hcg levels came back at 0 then it may not be necessary, so I’m not sure if that will still go ahead. My doctor is referring me to an OBGYN after the back to back loses so hopefully that will yield some answers.

How is everyone else doing?

I am, and I'm thinking the same thing

I'm still here. I find it weird though to have this board AND trouble TTC. They're essentially the same thing and find myself over on the other board more.

Still here, haven't gotten a BFP, in fact beta on Monday was negative and it hurt worse than anything. our failed IUIs stung but not like this. I'm not sure if it's the amount of money we spent on IVF or the more emotionally invested (and OMG all the meds) but yeah a negative when doing IVF hurts like a B.

I’m so sorry, big hugs. The emotional investment makes it hurt so much more when things don’t go as hoped.

I can't imagine the disappointment

I'm new around here. Now on cycle 2 of ttc #2. Kid #1 took 9 months to conceive so I'm making myself nice and comfy.

I still read and root for everyone here but haven’t posted. We are coming up on the 2 year mark of TTC#2. H is vehemently against even going to a consultation with a RE so I’m working on making peace with being one and done. I’m still temping and charting but I don’t feel like I would fit in on TTTC and I don’t want to be a downer here

Welcome and good luck! It took us 7 cycles for DS and 7 again for my first loss so I’m right there with you.

Not a downer! Please join in.

I’ve been lurking but don’t bring much to the table here since we had to head back to the RE (low amh and now both tubes blocked) but I lurk often but mostly post on TTTC.

Good luck in your next steps!

I am here too. On to cycle 5. I do enjoy reading and having the opportunity to ask questions in State of the Ute, even if my responses are sometimes not interesting.

I’m in the same boat, except DH is okay with the RE. Unfortunately, we didn’t get very good odd from the RE and since we’re OOP, not willing to do more than IUI, which has been unsuccessful.

I’m sorry, that is super frustrating.

It is, but I’m trying to remind myself that I have one healthy child, and given our odds, that is pretty remarkable. Some days I’m more successful in that than others.
My SIL’s first was born the same week as my daughter and has been a real ass toward us since having her second. That part has been hard, and we no longer speak to her as a result.

Ugh, I’m sorry your SIL has been so nasty. That’s terrible.
