IVF #1 at new clinic......BFN :(

Wow, I haven't updated in a long time.  Things were going so great this cycle (or so I thought).  Jan 24th was my first u/s & E2 draw.  We had about 15 follies brewing ranging from 10-14mm.  I wasn't sure if they needed me back the next day so me & mom stayed at the hotel one more night.  I got a call that night saying to do stims that night & the next then I'll be ready for trigger!!!!!  YIPPIE!!!!!  Then we decided to go home.  Wed the 26th I drove back down for my HCG instructions.  What a waste of a 4 hour drive.  All she did was give me a paper of my instructions & told me how to mix it.  Friday the 28th was our retrieval.  WE ended up with 18 eggs!!  I was thrilled with that and NO OHSS this time!  They called me the next day to let me know the fert report and check up on me.
-18 eggs retrieved
-14 mature
-11 fertilized
They had me tentatively scheduled for a Day 3 transfer on the 31st.  They would let me know that morning if we're coming in then or not.  I thought FOR SURE we would be doing a Day 5 but nope!  They called that morning and said to come in.  We transferred 2 embyos then was the hard part....waiting!  My first beta was scheduled for 2/10 & the second one 2/14.  On the 9th we got a letter in the mail that said none of the remaining 9 embryos had made it to freeze.  I was shocked & upset!!!  How is that possible?!?!?  So then the negativity set in.  The next day I found out my first beta was below 2.  Lovely.  I was having such "pregnant" symptoms that I thought this was it for us...apparently not.  I cried alot that day but had a glimmer of hope that maybe it would rise by the 14th.  Yesterday's beta was below 1 so there went that.  Now I have to call and make an appt with Dr H to see what the heck went wrong.
