Anyone doing FET/IVF in Jan 2013 till everyone's BFP (Everyone Welcome)

[2girls1baby]

AHHHH NO!!! I only transferred one because I'm so scared of twins...they were both perfectly rated little embies and twins run in my family....well, if they are, they are identical!!!

 

[Lucie73821]

Transfer went well. Dr recommend transferring 3, so we went with his advice. We transferred 3 day 5 blasts that were starting to expand right before transfer. Embryologist didnt have to use assisted hatching, he said they looked perfect! OTD is May 28th.

 

[MoBaby]

Okay 2girls. Maybe not twins then! I thought I may have id twins before b/c my betas were high but just 1.

 

[MoBaby]

Yay lucie! That's fantastic! I'd be scared for triplets though!!

 

[2girls1baby]

Mo, don't scare me

Lucie, congratulations! I have a feeling about 2

 

[Lucie73821]

Yay lucie! That's fantastic! I'd be scared for triplets though!!

I was worried too, but he said he has only had it happen a couple times. He said that since the success rates of FET were lower than fresh, putting 3 back gave us our best chance.

 

[sekky]

Hey lucie fx this is it for you sweetheart

Mercy what a big relief. Now relax and enjoy being pregnant my lady

2girls wow those are great numbers. Fx for Monday

First that's less than a week away. You have your pee sticks to keep you busy hehehe

Ash how did your trigger go? Good luck at your ER tomorrow

2girls congrats!! My first beta was 455 and I had two blasts transferred and ultrasound showed one healthy little one in there. I'm sure you're fine with just one. Twins run in my family too, but ivf takes that hereditary component out of the equation. I think you'll find one in there!

Lucie so exciting!! I agree that your chance of triplets is very low. We or should I say my dh wanted to transfer 3 for our FET, but we went with just 2. I have heard that FET success can be better because your body isn't all out of whack from stimming and ER. I think as long as they thaw well and are expanding then your chances are still very good. Mine were expanding but embryologist still did AH as standard FET protocol. Good luck!!

 

[blessedlife]

Yay Lucie!!!! happydance:

 

[sekky]

Ali tempted to test already?

Babyd glad you are able to move on quickly. Praying your FET does the trick and give you your forever baby

AFM follie and e2 check tomorrow

 

[ashknowsbest]

2girls - congrats on a great beta!

lucie - yay for ET! Congrats on being PUPO! Enjoy it and I'll be hoping for a BFP for you at the end! It seems like your doctor wouldn't have done it if he thought the odds of triplets were too high.

sekky - my trigger went fine. I didn't know the HCG was intramuscular but it was fine because I have done PIO shots before. No biggy. I can't wait to get to ER tomorrow though. I go in at 10AM woo hoo I just want to see if the change in protocol improved my egg quality.

ali - are you resting up?

 

[alicatt]

Hey all.. I'm here.. just resting and relaxing.
No testing yet.. I'm only 1dp5dt! I will probably test Sunday or Monday. I've had a lot of headaches yesterday and today. Minor cramping in my lower abdomen, but that is it so far.

Lucie.. we have the same OTD!

Mercy.. great news! I'm sure they will get your progesterone sorted out.

2girks.. great beta!!!

Everyone else..

 

[ttcbaby117]

Thanks, everyone!

My progesterone is low, so the dr is working on that.
But the lil jellybean is still there & growing (doubled), with a good heartbeat (144). So, for now, good news and relief.

Hoping to hear more good news from you all.

So glad to hear you saw a heartbeat hun....I am sure they will get your progesterone up in no time!

And Ali: it's never too early to POAS Just kidding. I think you need to wait a bit longer

Yes, I know, just on pins and needles waiting
My OTD isn't until May 28th ugh!

Ali - congrats on being PUPO....I have been on and off and missed your transfer...I am so happy for you!

Hi Ladies:wave:

First beta today = 303! That explains the nausea this early on! Progesterone nice and high too

This is good, right? I'm reading 50-426 is normal for about 4 weeks along.

Second beta is Monday 5/20...I'll keep you posted.

That is a nice high beta! Congrats hun!

Transfer went well. Dr recommend transferring 3, so we went with his advice. We transferred 3 day 5 blasts that were starting to expand right before transfer. Embryologist didnt have to use assisted hatching, he said they looked perfect! OTD is May 28th.

Lucie - congrats on being PUPO...wow 3....I was going to push for that if this IVF doesnt work because of my age so it is good to know some drs are still ok with it!

2girls - congrats on a great beta!

lucie - yay for ET! Congrats on being PUPO! Enjoy it and I'll be hoping for a BFP for you at the end! It seems like your doctor wouldn't have done it if he thought the odds of triplets were too high.

ali - are you resting up?

Ash - good luck tomorrow hun! I hope you get some great quality eggs!

AFM -

I got my fert report today...

9 eggs retrieved,
4 fertilized naturally through IVF
3 fertilized through ICSI
So we have 7 embies growing.....the other 2 were immature.

 

[alicatt]

TTC.. congrats! 7 embies growing is great news! Have you determined if you are doing a 3 or 5 day transfer?

 

[ttcbaby117]

The embryologist said we will do a 5 or 6 day transfer because of how things look right now...but I am to check my VM every night to see if plans change. If nothing changes then I will get a vm on Sunday which will tell me what time to report in on Monday or Tuesday. I do hope they all make it! I would love some to freeze!

 

[alicatt]

I just felt some pinching in my lower abdomen. Is it too soon? I had the transfer yesterday around noon

 

[ashknowsbest]

thanks ttc!

7 is a great embryo number! I will keep my FX'd that all of them make it and you have some to freeze!

 

[LotusBlossom]

I don't think it's too soon, Ali! I would wait until 6dpt (if you can) to test. You'll most likely get an accurate result (a BFP, fingers crossed!) at that point. I'm pulling for you! XO

 

[Mells54]

Lucie, congrats on being PUPO

TTC, 7 is great...grow embies grow!

Sekky, GL tomorrow. I hope things are progressing.

2girls, that's a nice strong number.

Ali, sounds promising! I'm so excited for you.

Mercy, glad things are still looking good.

Ash, good luck tomorrow. I can't wait to hear your report.

Hi Lotus...how are things with moving and all that going?

 

[LotusBlossom]

Lotus its not your fault for the ectopic! Dont blame yourself. If that was the case then a lot of women each month would end up with ectopic. The rate for ectopic with IVF is double that of the general population FWIW.

I know. Basically the Dr said it could have caused it if there was excess fluid. Also, that tube was blocked by endo, so that could have something to do with it... Excess tissue doing something, I don't know. I do know that I will not be lying on my side again after transfer because I need to know I didn't cause the problem if it happens again. We're saving for a bulk package of unlimited cycles, so that will be less stressful (at least financially). I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's BFPs and hopefully posting mine sometime this year.
