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

[hockey24]

So I called the office this morning to see if there was any information. The nurse told me my transfer time and when to be at the hospital. So I was like - well since we have a transfer time, I'm assuming there is something to transfer??? She said - usually we would be notified if we needed to cancel the transfer. Usually. Just had to throw that in to make me nervous!

Anyway - going with the positive approach of - since we have a transfer time of 10:30am, we must have at least 1 to transfer. Guess I'll know in less than 3 hours!!

So just got home and we actually had 4 eggs out of the 5 that are still hanging in there! 1 is graded an A and the other 3 were graded a C. We transferred 2 eggs and if the other 2 are still around tomorrow - we will freeze them.

The doctor was still a bit pessimistic regarding the fibroid but I am very happy that we are giving this month a go! I'm so pleased with how everything has gone.

So now we just need those little beans to stick!!!

Thanks Sarah. I'll schedule my beta tomorrow but I think it will be March 15th. I've already started testing out the trigger shot - which is still showing a slight line this morning. I really just wanted to test the trigger just to see what a positive looks like!! But will definitely be testing along the way so I can set my expectations accordingly!

Hockey, just curoius aout your fibroid, its location and how big.
I had one before getting prego. It is over 5cm x 4cm, on the inside of my uterus, to the left of my belly button. It hasnt changed in size and doc isnt worried. So many women get prego with fibroids. FXFXFX!!

Hockey- That is FANTASTIC!!!!! and you got 2 frosties!!!! I hope your fibroid behaves and lets your beans implant nicely

Thank you for telling me that! I know its more difficult to get pg with the fibroid but its not impossible and you just proved that to me.

My fibroid is 1.2cm and its kind of in the top / side area. Hard to explain since the uterus is wierd shaped anyway. Its halfway in the wall of the uterus and halfway sticking out which is why I would have to have lap surgery to get it out. It's been the same size since we first noticed it 6 months ago. Hasn't grown at all.

So thank you for sharing your story with me! I really appreciate that.

Did you know how big yours was before you got pg?

 

[sadie]

I am not sure how big it was beforehand, but it has been the same size since i started this pregnancy back in September (used an fs and they pointed it out to me, but made no big deal about it). It makes me look bigger than i should look, because my uterus has to accomodate it....
I think many women that have fibroids get prego, guess it just depends on where and how many. I would think that doing IVF would make implantation even easier. They know where they're going when they implant, imo!
Forogt to add, we did an IUI to help the process, but not bc of the fibroid. Just to up our chances!
GL, i will keep peeking in here!

Well the other two embryos didn't make it to freeze but I'm ok with that - I've got just what I need inside right now!! Hoping those 2 little beans are nestling up close for a nice long stay!!

Hope so hockey!

So, I just got back from the doctor, and my first scan. I have 2 follicles, one on each side, measuring 22mm and 25mm. We triggered today, and my IUI is tomorrow. So excited!
