I did 3 cycles at CFC to get my bubs. First was 9w miscarriage, then BFN on the frozen cycle with single remaining emby. Successful 3rd cycle was new donor PLUS Dr M ! I am a big believer in 'everything plus the kitchen sink' approach so I don't really know what was the thing that lead to success, or if it was just 'my time' but we got there. I definitely would encourage seeing Dr M and following his suggested protocol. You can also do Acupuncture (ideally 6 months prior to transfer) and of course a naturopath for general body well being (I went gluten free, eliminated caffeine and reduced sugar intake) plus 1001 supplements. Financially it was hard but I figured it was cheaper in the long run to "invest" in early cycles rather than have unsuccessful cycles and change/add only 1 thing at a time.

Thanks Cathy that's great advice. I'll be calling Dr M tomorrow to make an appointment. Hopefully doesn't take too long to get in.

@Kate83 - the 2 times I have made appointments it has taken a month each time to get in so please plan for this to take time.

Hi everyone. I also second seeing Dr M. He definitely is the one who got me over the line and I owe it all to him I'm sure of it. We went for our first scan yesterday and happy to announce that we are expecting fraternal twins. Hearts are beating along strong and everything is as it should be at this stage. We are in total shock and disbelief still but hoping it will sink in soon. I'm feeling fine at this stage however I'm thinking all of dr ms drugs are keeping me ticking along ok. I hope my journey gives others hope when there's none left. I literally had none left and had given up. I did this last donor cycle to get closure. I never thought it would work.

@Caesardust - huge congratulations.

The scan is pretty amazing seeing 2 sacs. I couldn't get my head around it until about 4 months in .... prior to that it was all O M G ! But my Frat twins turned 16 months yesterday and they are the best thing I have ever done in my life, hands down.

@Caesardust amd @gorgeousgeorge congratulations!! Great news!!!. And for those still trying and never getting bfp keep trying dont give up. Where there is a will there is a way. It may not be this way but there are still lots of options. Dont give up. I know how hard it is to read everyones good news constantly when you keep getting bad news. It destroys you. It may feel like you are the only person this isnt working for but you arent, its just that all of us who it did not work for dont come on here anymore but i can tell you that we are all finding happiness down other roads to our baby. It is amazing that so many women on here get there dreams but Im just saying for those who dont please dont give up. Just try something else. Love E xxx
