5 is a fantastic number Lirpa, it is such a numbers game! My first cycle I had 18 follies and got 18 eggs and this past cycle I had 20 follies and got 11 eggs


Hi ladies
All finished for now. Just waiting to know how many get fertilised tomorrow. Hoping all goes well.
Expected numbers a bit better, but we got 5 eggs. DHs count was 9million so they're going icsi now.
Should get 4 fertilised and 3 good ones for transfer based on statistics. We get one transferred Friday. They scheduled my blood test for December 23 but we will be in bali so changed to 26 December. I'm sure I'll do a HPT before anyhow.
I would have thought heaps of eggs because of the follicles, but maybe that's linked to my pcos? Oh well, one is all we need I guess. And low risk of ohss so that's good.
Also have tomorrow off work, transfer Friday at lunch (fingers crossed) but said I can go back to work after.
Started crying when they said our numbers and that we are going icsi, but DH made me feel better and said only need the one so will keep praying.
Can't wait to hear how you go Eveclo! Did your trigger sting?
That's fantastic ! Was that using ICSI or IVF I can't remember if you've told me or not![]()
I'm home from EPU, we got 15 eggs and I'm not sure how many were mature (hopefully a good amount!). Our scientist told us she wanted to do 5 ivf and the majority in ICSI, as DH's sperm count and motility was up today. I am really nervous about this decision but I feel like I would regret it if I didn't do it. I just have a feeling those 5 will be throwaways but I guess we will know tomorrow. Feeling really good at the moment, my doctor was thrilled with results. Just hoping we have some good fert results. Transfer (if all goes well) Friday (day 2) or Monday (day 5). (Clinic doesn't open on weekends) hope everyone is well.![]()

The embryologist ended up doing all ICSI due to low count and motility (only a few were moving in the right direction). And it worked I our favour yay!
Hoping the icsi ones go good for youI'm sure you will get some nice embryos as well! You have some good numbers with yours
good luck :-D
Hope you girls are recovering well
5 out of 5 is awesome LirpaWhen is your next embryo update? xx
Eveclo awesome pick up!! Hope your bloat goes down soonHope you get some good fertilisation
They should call you this morning with an update? xx
So excited for you girls xx
I'm so excited for you Eveclo, I agree, everyone who works in the lab there are just awesome, good at their jobs and very down to earth. Stalking you and Lirpa11 and hoping for some good news for you both soon x
That's an amazing fertilisation reportDo they give you a day 3 report? xx
We haven't gotten another report yet.I know the embies are in an embryoscope, growing away.
I know we go for the transfer tomorrow at 11:50! Can't waitour little baby embie will be back in me. I'll have a chat to it ha ha
That is a good fertilisation report Eveclo! You must be pleased to have gotten good numbers from the icsi and ivf! I agree that the nurses, embryologists have been good. I think they have been the most helpful this cycle than anytime previous when we used them for cyle tracking etc.
Can't believe were both getting the transfers so soon now yay.
The bloat for me has finally started going down today. I'm def glad I had the day of EPU and the day after off work. I felt ok, but slept for over half the day yesterday! So much sleep but it was worth it because I feel good now.
What are you doing after your transfer Eveclo? I will go back to work for an hour, then going to the movies for the evening so nothing strenuous. Saturday I'll just do a bit of house cleaning (sweeping and mopping). Should be ok.
How many are you having transferred? Is your hubby going in with you? DH is driving up to come with me for the transfer. I'm glad he wants to be a part of it each step
Not sure if there is anything we shouldn't do after the transfer.... Hoping for a BFP for us both!
Eveclo- Ben is still there..he is just lovely, I'm so glad your experience has been positive, hard to picture Scott doing surgery..have you seen how big his hands are? Lol Gentle giant tho![]()
