41. TTC #1 since 2009. IVF attempt #3 w/DE. Last two with same donor (25 mature eggs but only fert 6 eggs at a time because we didn't want to risk frosties). This time my friend from out of state agreed to be our gestational carrier. I was told after last cancelled cycle (hours prior to fert) that I was going to need a carrier.
This cycle, 19 eggs left and they were going to thaw eggs until they had 6 good ones. They only needed to thaw six because all 6 looked good. Day 1 only three fertilized (first IVF last Sep 5 fert, 2 perfect embryos on day 5. Extremely difficult transfer-45 min attempt, sent away with Cytotec and came back in PM for another attempt. 30 mins later they were in. BFN. Emb said due to difficulty getting to uterus prob caused them to attrit). Day 3 of this cycle (day b4 yest), one 8 cell normal and other two were 4 cell. Flew carrier and her mom in yesterday. Otw to clinic this AM and embryologist called and said they all arrested. Devastating. I don't know how to tell my husband. He is in the middle of some extreme training for work out of state and has a test tomorrow. This sucks! I've been trying to do what God would have me do and am respecting Him and life. I don't know why the answer continues to be, No. We don't have any more money for this. I'm trying to hang tough for my friend and her mom who were visibly devastated when I got the call. I'm trying to use humor to create levity!
Here's to all you out there hanging tough! Lots of us feel the same pain!
