anyone over 35 going for fertility treatments this year? IUI, IVF etc

[sadie]

IDK if this will help or not, but my doc found 3 fibroids in my uterus today...they are on the outer edge, so he said not to worry. I guess the concern is if they are located inside the uterus.

I have a big one on the inside of mine... In my photo, you can see it on the baby's head! Last time we checked it was measuring 5cm x 4cm x 5cm and thatis the same size from a month before, so itsnot growing,atm! I think i always had it, but the clomid made it grow. I have been told not to worry, but if it blocks the canal, I'd need a c-section....

Sarah, good luck today and I cannot wait for your report! Enjoy your time in the hotel and I hope Buffalo isn't to snowy right now. If you have never had one, eat a beef on weck sandwich while in NY; you'll not be disappointed.

im back and +1...at least for a few days!! the first blast they defrosted survived and looked good, it was rated at 4BB. They are kinda dehydrated from the freezing and they said it was starting to expand. Im now in bed for a couple of days. Say a prayer for us!! I go for my beta test next saturday, will know the results on sunday, and if it hasnt worked I only have to wait 2 weeks to try again with another one (or two) of my 7

I asked them if a blast that survives the defrost and thaw means its a good one, and she said its a good sign, but I dont think thats always true as lots of FETS fail. I asked them if they are picky about what they freeze and they said very, and just as fussy when defrosting too and if anything doesnt look 100% they get a 2nd opinion and decide whether to defrost another. so that made me feel good.

the 4BB was actually the best grade of all 10 blasts (better than the 2 originally transferred) so I asked if that meant its likely to perform better than one of my 2BB or 3BC frosties. They said its just a visual grading at the time and seeing as they cant see inside its not always a good indicator. I suppose thats why someone with perfect blasts doesnt get pregnant and someone with badly graded at day 3 does, as all that matters is whats inside.

LL is it tomorrow you will get a report? or was it today, I forget

 

[readyformore]

Sounds great Sarah.

I'm rooting for you!!

 

[LLbean]

Sarah hope it is a very sticky bean for you!!!

Well tomorrow supposedly...I begged her and said "please don't make me come in and hold my pee for that long if nothing is there to do" she said they should have results tomorrow so hopefully when they call to schedule a transfer time it is because at least one passed

 

[GreenFingers]

Yeah Sarah, so pleased for you, get those feet up and relax! Did you have acupuncture today? I had it twice on ET day, before and after!

 

[crystal443]

Sarah- Wow great news, hope this one is "the one" and nice to know about grading because I've noticed that as well, some ladies have badly graded embies at day three and do really well and then day five that's been graded excellent doesn't do anything. So that is very interesting, and the fact you can try again in two weeks if you need to is also great!! I hope this one takes and you don't need to worry about it and you can keep your frosties for in a few years

 

[crystal443]

LL- I would really hope they wouldn't make you go in if there's nothing to transfer..that would just be cruel I've got everything crossed you've got a few embies to put back

 

[froliky2011]

I want to give you ladies some hope. My Sister-in-Law has two children from IVF and I have another family member that got twins from IVF. I don't know the details of their situations because it took place before I was a part of the family and my DH was not told the details of the issues they had. In any case. She was 40 with the last one. I know it took a while (the oldest and youngest are 4 years apart). I wish I knew the details. Baby Dust to Everyone! I hope all the embryos are good, healthy and stick! This is such a roller coaster. Those of you LTTC have my complete hopes, prayers and baby vibes!!!!!

thanks everyone just had a lovely nap

greeny I had acupuncture last night and going tomorrow did you keep it up after your bfp? Im going to, to keep me calm!

the whole process of the blast transfer I just loved, its a very powerful feeling knowing what they are doing, so even though it would have been nice (and cheaper!!) to get pregnant naturally I am so glad Ive experienced that. I welled up with tears while lying down and hearing them say 'load it up' through the door to the lab, and it was lovely to have hubby watch a little dot on the ultrasound screen. they told me the dot is actually an air bubble they create as they wouldnt be able to actually see the blast otherwise!
