Icon7 ICSI worked

This is the best Thanksgiving ever! DH & I did IVF w/ICSI #1 less than two weeks ago. My beta test was scheduled for this Saturday, but I just had to POAS this morning where it was Thanksgiving day! I have taken two different brands of HPTs and both were
I am overjoyed

We have been ttc for just over 2 years now and I was starting to crack with nothing happening for us (DH has borderline MF). The RE said not to waste our time with doing IUIs, as they would not work with DH's male factor. She said ICSI would work and it looks like it did!

I wish all you ladies a Happy Thanksgiving & Lots of Babydust

Thank you ladies

The RE's office confirmed it today and they told me that my beta is 78 (they were looking for 75, so they were pleased with the number)! The nurse said that it sounds like to them that 1 of my 3 embies implanted. We feel very blessed!

I hope that the holiday season will be a magical one for everyone on the boards!

Hi ladies - I had my second Beta yesterday and it was 188. My clinic was happy with the # as it more than doubled since Saturday.

I would definitely recommend doing IVF with the ICSI to prevent the MF from standing in the way of your dreams!

Best wishes,
