Bluebell I totally get the fluctuations in optimism. It's hard to visualise a successful ending when we've ha to work this hard at it. But there are loads of success stories on here and on another thread a lady I chat with ha a two day transfer and had no symptoms in the 2ww and just got her bfp. It can and does happen and all we can do is hope and wait. I have a good feeling for you :)

Macca, good luck tomorrow, we will all be thinking of you. Let us know how u go.
Xx
 
Hey girls, that is me just home from the transfer! Out of the whole process I found that part the most stressful, I think mainly because I didn't know what I was transferring until the last minute.

I got a blastocyst which was graded 2bb I'm not sure what that means, the embryologist just said it was at the stage he expected it to be. I also had a second embryo which was just about to progress into a blastocyst so it couldn't be graded. The embryologist said that they wouldn't normally freeze them at that stage and he saw no benefit of waiting another day to see if it developed into a blastocyst so we had that transferred too.

I have two embryos left which don't look great so they are going to see how they are tomorrow and if they are worth freezing but the likelihood is they won't make it.

So, I have two embryos on board and go back next Thursday for the outcome! I am feeling slightly anxious now and it all seems a bit surreal! Day on the couch for me!! :coffee:
 
Wow Macca, great result! Logged on whilst at work to see if you had posted yet!! Put your feet up now for the rest of the day and watch a movie or something nice! I think you must have a really good chance with those:flower:
 
That's great Macca! I'm keeping everything crossed for both you girls and I have a good feeling it will be great news! Hope the next week flies by xx
 
Congrats on being pupo macca, hope the embies are burrowing down as we speak. Next Thursday for testing seems quicker than I had expected - I thought it was two weeks they made you wait? Maybe because your embies were at blasto stage it's quicker? Anyway, wishing you and bluebell all the luck in the world. X
 
Thanks Minno, I think it's because they are at blastocyst stage that we can test quicker! Still it's going to be a long 10 days! X
 
Just got a call from the clinic to say one of my embryos made it through the night and I now have a blastocyst to freeze! We are delighted, the embryologist said she looked at it yesterday and had written it off so we are really lucky!
 
Macca, brilliant news. You must be thrilled and hopefully your good luck this cycle will continue:thumbup:
 
Thanks Bluebell, it all seems too good to be true! I would love to say I'm feeling positive but I'm bricking it! :)

How are you feeling?
 
Mmm, mixed emotions. Am back at work and just trying to behave as normal!! I think if we have success it would be a bit of a miracle!! I am realistic enough to know that! Do you plan on testing before your beta next week?
 
You just never know, I've seen people on here with perfect cycles get a BFN and people with really poor embryos get pregnant with twins! It's the not knowing which way it's going to go that makes me feel anxious.

I'm definitely not going to test before the beta, I'm dreading next Thursday coming around! How about you are you going to test? Do you have the day off work for it?
 
I don't think I will either. I've not been a "tester" throughout things, preferring just to wait it out. I am at work till 3pm on fri. I don't know when they do the phone calls but will ask if they can phone after 3.30 when I'm home as don't want to fall apart at work. If it's bad news then got the weekend to gather myself together at least. Are you going to be a work?
 
I'm due to be to be at work as my beta is Thursday. I have put in for holidays on Thurs and Fri that way if its bad news I have the weekend to get myself together!
 
Macca brilliant news! I think its going to be good news for you and bluebell I really do...and well done if you can manage not to test before the betas... Lol xx
 
Fantastic news Macca. Girls I also feel very positive for you and am sending you as much baby dust as I can carry!! Work will help keep you distracted and grounded until test time. There's nothing else either of you can do now but good things come to those who wait :)
Sending you both a big cyber hug xx
 
Yep, agreed girls... I feel positive about this for both of you too. Sending lots and lots of positive vibes to those embies x
 
Hey girls, how are we all doing? I had a strange sleep last night and was semi aware of my heart really thumping. I think it is just anxiousness. I need to try and stay off google, I think it is making me feel worse!! Well, that's a week passed since egg retrieval - in retrospect it has been a really quick week. Still feeling quite crampy with the progesterone pessaries.
