Calling all RMA Ladies (1st page updates)

[Lindsay18]

It's natural to feel disappointed, don't feel guilty! I'm sorry if my post made you feel that way.

My transfer is a week from today.

Nooo!! Your post didn't make me feel that way at all - it made me feel a lot better actually!
That's so exciting! Do you go to Morristown also?

 

[DaisyQ]

Jess, Morris told me that laser acupuncture improves success rates about 5%.
Its done before and after. You schedule it the day before when they tell you what time to come in. Or you can tell your nurse and they'll make a note of it.

Yes, exciting and scary. I will be going to morristown for the transfer, and for monitoring I either go to morristown or west orange. WO is much more convenient.

Oh ok! I feel you about the convenience. I go to Somerset because it is much closer for me. You should come and meet up with us when we have our first "IVF Group" meeting out somewhere (IDK where yet)!

I am going to do it I think. I will tell my nurse and we will be good to go. How much is it? 250? I am excited. I feel like I should just do it because if I dont, I will be kicking myself in the ass. Do you know if its ok to do if I have never done accu before?

Hey Jess - it's $200. I felt the same way. I have never done acupuncture before either. So it's totally fine - no needles=OK WITH ME!

 

[DaisyQ]

Thanks for the invite. I'd love to, but scheduling things are hard, especially during the week since I'm commuting to/from nyc. Let me know where/when though.

 

[BlueStorm]

You can tell them the day of if you want to do laser accu. They asked me a million times even though I had already said no, so you can always change your mind last minute.

If you girls schedule something I will try to make it, like Daisy said it's always hard to get everyone on the same page for stuff like that but it's worth a try.

Good luck today Lindsay!!! Thinking of u and sending sticky vibes!!!

 

[Lindsay18]

Hey ladies!!!
Transfer went great!! We had SOOO many good omens- my doctor was the one to actually do the transfer, our wedding song came in right before we went in, etc!!!
It turns out it wasn't 4-5 that made it to the blast stage. It was 10!!! So we had 2 transferred and 8 frozen We had the chromosome testing done and they were all confirmed chromosomally normal!!

The 2 that we had transferred were 5BB and 6BB
We are thrilled with the results and thank you so much for the good luck wishes and support!

 

[DaisyQ]

WOW!!! LINDSAY! You could not have gotten a better result, I swear! That is just fantastic. TEN normal blasts??? HOLY COW, can your ovaries give mine a pep talk?

 

[DaisyQ]

And I'm calling it RIGHT now. You WILL get pregnant, and I think with twins.

HAHA That literally made me LOL!!! Thank you so much. I know! I am thrilled We were like "Ummm, are you sure?" It went from 4-5 to 10 overnight practically!

 

[Lindsay18]

And I'm calling it RIGHT now. You WILL get pregnant, and I think with twins.

You called it first!!! I hope you're right - that would be awesome!

 

[jchic]

that is AMAZING. WOW WOW WOW. That is the type of response we all would DIE for. Perfect, textbook perfect and beyond. Def prego with twinsies!

 

[DaisyQ]

I'm not surprised you got more than the 4-5 actually - it's normal for some of the embryos to reach blastocyst on day 6, which is what it sounds like happend with you.

Same happened to me - on day 5, I had 2 blasts, and on day three I think I had 3-4 (but the 4th one looked bad so they discarded it).

 

[Lindsay18]

Thanks, Jess!!! You're next

 

[Lindsay18]

How's everyone doing today? I can't believe I am already feeling anxious 1 day after transfer - and my test isn't until next Friday!!! Ugh!

 

[Littlee49]

Lindsay...the wait for the preg test is always the harder wait! It'll be here before you know it! Just stay busy! Haha keep us updated!

Got a great update this weekend....they pushed my embryos to day 6 and I had 14 that made it!!! So now they're off for PGD testing and freezing until my FET! Hope to get some great embies out of testing. Now I just have to wait until day 1 of cycle and then the prep starts for transfer. I can't wait!!!

 

[DaisyQ]

Wow, little - 14 blasts??? That's amazing!
