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

[BabyD225]

Sandy, I'm sorry that you even have to make such a difficult decision. Life certainly is full of curve balls. I agree that I would probably continue my cycle, as it gives you something to look forward to together.

BabyD, as a NYer I love that name...although we are Mets fans!

HAHA thanks Mells!!! I'm sorry you're Mets fans!... although the Yanks team seems to be falling apart! I'm happy you can appreciate the name sentiment though.. You know New Yorkers and our pride

Hi ladies

I'm quite new to this thread so don't know if anyone's at the same stage as me...just had a day 6 blast transferred today - a FET. All went well although just b4 I went into the theatre, the embryologist decided to burst my positivity bubble by telling me to stay grounded and remember that day 6 blasts don't normally do as well as day 5s. Hard to have PMA when they are so blunt! Trying not to think too much about it.

So the 2ww begins....

Sandy was really sorry to read your post and hear what ur going through. Sending u kind thoughts xx

I thought that most if not all of the FET's were 6 day transfers do the the freeze/thaw process? But like I said I have only done a fresh cycle. We have lots of girls on here that got their BFP from a FET cycle... it actually seems to be more successful than the fresh cycles!

Did you have to use HCG for any reason? Will you be testing early?

Hey jack! My current pregnancy is a 6 day blast. In fact one was refrozen and thawed again so it's possible that one took. Most frosties / fet are day 6 so idk what your embryologist is talking about. I had bfp from all my fets but the first 2 didn't stay around. Wishing you all the luck!

 

[jack79]

Thanks MoBaby. I had 2 fresh day 5 blastocysts transferred in July which resulted in a chemical pregnancy. The embryologist said that although the day 6 is better quality that either of the day 5s that I was to 'stay grounded' and realise that the one I had transferred today had been slower to develop and therefore not so good?! Not really what i wanted to hear right before going in to have the procedure! Anyhow, I'm sure lots of people are successful with day 6 blastocysts so I'm back to feeling positive again! Congratulations on your pregnancy by the way!

Hi Brandy Just been on estrogen and progesterone for this FET cycle. Will probably only test a day or 2 early. My embryo was frozen on day 6 and transferred the same day as it was thawed... xx

Hi Jack :wave: My baby was a 6 day blast as well. My perfect 5 day fresh blast resulted in miscarriage. I really don't think the embryologist should give commentary like that.

Good luck! Can't wait to see your BFP!

 

[~Brandy~]

Awesome Jack so any line is a for sure BFP! I can't wait When is you OTD?

 

[MoBaby]

Has anyone heard for Alicat? I was just thinking about her. Hope all is well with Ali!

Jack - my RE said there is absolutely no difference in success rates with 5day vs 6day embryos. I specifically asked that question because two of my embryos were frozen on day 6. I don't think that embryologist knows what he/she is talking about. Sorry you had to hear that Keep up the positive mindset!

Definitely close! I have about two weeks left since I'm going in for an induction. It feels like the time is dragging though

Jack welcome and congrats on being PUPO! I hope the 30th gets here quickly. I'm not a POAS. Addict so I actually waited until the day before my official test date to test. I wanted to be PUPO as long as possible.

Ladies! I just got confirmation that I am scheduled for orientation at Walter Reed for next month! Each step has to be done in order and it has been challenging to get to this point with doing all the testing remotely and emailing every question to the one lady who can help. I am so relieved and excited! I'm hoping this means we can do the March cycle. I'll find out in a month!
