Ash, I am so sorry. I know how you feel. I am 36 and my husband is 29. We attempted 4 IUI's and came up with nothing after ttc for 3 years. We did our first IVF cycle in Feb. They did a transfer on day 3 after retrieval. They transferrred 2 ... a Grade A 9 cell and a Grade B 8 cell. My pregnancy test was to be on March 19th. I tested positive at home on Sun. 18th and Mon. 19th. (a.m.) My bloodtest was positive but my Beta only 78. They told me to come back in 2 days for another and hopefully it will have doubled. It dropped to 33. We were devisdated. :( Finally by Friday it was down to 4. The doctor ruled it a chemical pregnancy and said that sometimes the embryos begin to implant but don't fully implant and then drop off. He seemed to think there was something with the chromosomes. Just enough to give us the positive and then play with our minds. I don't know a lot about assisted hatching. When I asked my dr. about it he said they don't do that unless they do ICSI. Do you have the money to try another IVF? If so maybe that would be where to go next. Don't give up hope. I was so discouraged with the IUI's and three years of nothing and the first IVF, I got pregnant. Problem is, I lost it but I guess I have to be optomistic and think that's a start. Hang in there. I don't know if any of this helped but I'm here to listen.
~Lisa
