I went in on New Year'e eve morning to have my blood drawn and then ran some errands while I waited for the RE to call. Luckily I managed to be heading to my car when the call came in so I wouldn't be surrounded by people!! My levels dropped to a 2, so I am officially not pregnant. I had a feeling that was the results since I started bleeding the night before. It was brown but a lot more blood than spotting.
I feel kinda numb right now, I am sad but I am not as sad feeling as the past two times. I am not sure why that is but at least I am functioning better. I definitely had the right support group this time around. The first time I told family and a couple close friends, the second we ended up telling a ton of people and I hated getting to tell everyone it didn't work and being asked about it. So this time we only told the people that "got it" and would be the support system that both Mr. Explorer Bud and I needed. With all the ups and downs of this cycle my support group, including my buds, were what kept me sane and positive throughout. Thank you soo much!!!
Whats next? I briefly talked to the RE about doing Hormone Replacement Therapy before trying another cycle so I am going to call and make an appointment this week to really talk about it. I am also going to look into acupuncture to see how much it will really cost us to do as well. I am not sure what else we can change that will make IVF work, there isn't anything else left.

Explorer, I'm so sorry that you didn't get KU this month. But I most definitely understand not telling a lot of people. Telling the bad news and answering the (seemingly) never-ending questions is heart-breaking. But I am very glad that you and Mr. EB had the support that you need/needed. I couldn't imagine the difficulty of going through this without one.
I hope your next appointment with the RE is informative and starts your new year off with a bang!
Thanks, I am hoping that 2012 we can have some success!!
My heart is breaking for you, Explorer. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Good luck with your next RE appointment, and please let us know if you try acupuncture. I've always been interested in giving it a try myself.
I will for sure, I know a couple of people that have done acupuncture with success so I might as well pull out all the stops this next time, I have nothing to lose!
Im so sorry for ur loss. I know exactly how ur feeling....the numbness and all. Its so sad that we get used to the pain. It should never feel this way. Please know I feel your pain. Much love to you......
Thank you!!
I am so sorry for your loss! I hope so much that you have success this year with your treatments!
