Anyone starting to set up the process of EGG SHARING? If so come join me 8 BFP's

[MrsH28]

Hi Plex - how far are you through the process now?

 

[scerena]

plex Hun good to hear from you how are you?? Where you at with your cycle at the mo? Are you doing clomid?- sorry I've forgot!!!

betty glad to see you back on this thread even though we talk on the other threads hope you've recovered from EC? I'm still sore abit think I need laxatives though

mrsH28 hope you're doing okay??

 

[MrsH28]

Hi Scerena

I'm not too bad - feeling a bit better now i am moving forwards again - it was such a low time for me when i found out i couldnt egg share - but luckily i am a bit OCD about things and immediately got first bloods and scans results sent through and then forwarded them on to some other clinics and Care at Manchester said it was all OK - the only potential issue is hereditary colour blindness from my dad but that should be too bit a problem i dont think...

How are things with you?

OH is collecting results at 8.45 tomorrow morning as they couldn't print them yesterday! Had to get a medical secretary to do it. Then going to fax them over in the morning!!

I am hoping we are matched by next week, but that's wishful thinking. How long did you wait scerena?

[scerena]

4magpies ummm they didn't have a match at 1st but they matched me within a few weeks of not having any matches for me on their list. But at my clinic a lady I speak to got matched within a couple of days- depends really, I'm sure you will be matched quickly Hunni

Glad you can get ohs results in the morning

mrsh28 brilliant news that you've had some positive feedback I'm happy for you that you can hope fly get going with this clinic

I'm good thanks still a bit sore, transfer is either tomorrow or Sunday exciting!

Betty- I see from ur siggy that ur pupo with 2 eggies!!! When do u test? My cycles r getting longer so am impatient to start on the egg sharing x

MrsH- I have a long wait for my counselling session, I booked it last week and the earliest I can get is the 28th JUNE Im hoping I may get a cancellation appointment headed my way but dont think that will happen. After that just one lot of bloods to do at the start of my cycle then im ready to go Its great when things start moving along and u get progress, just wish it was all straightforward lol x

Scerena- lolol theres a lot to keep up with on this thread dont worry bout it Yeah I did clomid this month with the trigger and im about 10dpo now, if i did ov - thought i did last month but i didnt will be testing on the 14th officially but have already started lolol How r u feeling?

[scerena]

IM HAVING A 5 DAY TRANSFER she said it woke be so difficult to choose the best embies today as they all look really good and they want the one with the best potential...

All 4 embies are doing very well...
They grade from grade 1-4 with 1 being the highest... All 4 are grade 1
So far there is one 7cell
And 3 8 cells, they were all 4 cells yesterday so they're doubling nicely she said....

I said will I be allowed two back and she said probably not if blast transfer... I'm not happy about that... I will be discussing on the day...
Anyhow Im having transfer on Sunday IF they make it fx'd

I said will they make it and she said they're developing very nicely, if they were slow they would have put them back, she said if they're going to develop it wouldn't make a difference being in the dish or inside me, it she said they are doing very well...

plex I hope hat you've ovulated would be so nice for you to get a surprise whilst waiting I'm rooting for you
Keep me updated on your testing please

4magpies aw it's so easy to gain weight when you're ill do you NEED to loose the weight or is it just because you want to???

 

[4magpies]

Well all our paper work is now with clinic. Just a case of waiting for the call I've been matched. Eek!! Scary and exciting at the same time.

Hope you're all well xxx

Oh and scerena I don't need to lose weight as my BMI has always been under 28 even with putting some on which is my clinics rule. I just want to lose some before I start. Get back down to 25 hopefully xxx

 

[Plex]

Scerena - wow thats GREAT news hun, Its a shame about only putting one back though, do u think they cud be talked into putting two back instead? Im excited for you as u have great embies too x

Magpies - I know what you mean about loosing some more weight, you know in yourself that you feel different and what ur ideal weight is. Im 10st13 and have a good bmi but ideally I would be 10st -10st 6. I hope u manage well - u shud do though as u werent well when u put it on and especially as ur on the met, that shud help too x

Everything on this thread is getting really exciting now, I just wish my journey would do some catching up lol Im about 10dpo(ish) and got a bfn this am - i test twice daily with cheapies xx

 

[MrsH28]

Plex - you are just like me! I'm 10st13 but would like to bve nearer 10st! I'm 5'7" so a healthy BMI but i know i am carrying nearly a stone more than i should be - its working away from home that has done that to me over the last 18months!

Good luck both Plex and 4Magpies on the weight loss and the IVF its so nice to find other people that are in the same situation!

 

[Plex]

MrsH - I work nights so that does it for me at the moment, although I put a lot on before I got pregnant with my son, I ate what I thought i wanted/ my body needed so piled it on. Having said that it was gradual over 4.5 years.

Im a bit annoyed at the moment - I just had a phone call from my counsellor to say that even if I did get an earlier appointment It would make no difference as there were a few others waiting to share in front of me so I would have a long wait regardless.....Im a bit concerned now as my counselling session is with her and so far shes been very dismissive, like ive failed before ive begun. Not a happy bunny atm. Mind u im due on af soon (hopefully) so thats why im probably upset
I thought the selection of the sharer was decided by the recipient not the counsellor......sorry rant over xx

 

[MrsH28]

Plex - Dont worry about ranting - i would feel exactly as you do and i also thought it came down to the individual recipient to decide who they wanted not the counsellor choice!

Hmmm... certainly seems like a not very positive and proactive centre you are at! Where are you anyway?

 

[Plex]

Thanx hun I needed that rant lol
Im at Cov its free here so I suppose thats why theres a long wait x

 

[4magpies]

I'm 5ft 7 and currently weigh 12st 3. Lowest I've ever been is 11st 5. I'm not made to be thin unfortunately. Haha.

Plex your counsellor sounds horrid. Did you ask if it was definitely mandatory as I don't think it is.

I'm sat here wondering when I'm gonna get a call.

[scerena]

Thanks for the good luck ladies

I am now PUPO with 1 "perfect embryo" which is a hatching blast OTD 21/05/13 (my ohs birthday)

It was that perfect that the consultant would not transfer two, he said if it was day 3 he would transfer two or if this embryo was down graded a bit then he would consider two...
He went on to say about if he puts a lower grade one in also and I miscarry that one it could bleed into the good one and he wouldn't want to risk loosing the good one...
He said he done 10 transfers today and put two back in on every one, but he said if they had embies like mine he wouldn't put two back...

After me arguing for ages I agreed to one as I didn't have a choice and what he said makes sense

They will call me tomorrow to let me know if any of the other 3 are suitable to freeze


plex wow your counsellor doesn't sound very nice I hope that you're okay???
Yes the recipient says yes or no and just because others are waiting it doesn't mean they have the same characteristics!!

4magpies Im sure you won't be waiting long Hun I can't wait for you to get the call!!!

 

[4magpies]

Oh how exciting!! Yay for being pupo.

Talking to some girls from my clinic on the other forum and they got matched in 1 day and 4 days at the beginning of the month so I hope mine is as quick!

[scerena]

4magpies brilliant news not long for yo at all then now it's so nerve wracking waiting for that call isn't it

 

[4magpies]

It's horrible. Knowing my luck it'll take ages!!

[scerena]

4magpies I'm sure it won't take long your clinic seem to be extremely fast at matching fop days feel like years though when waiting don't they!
