[Disneyfan88]

Well ladies, I'm officially triggered! Let the POAS begin in a few days

You're almost at the finish line!

Yes, we did ICSI. FX it works!!

Good luck, Prayerful! On my first IVF cycle, we got 5 mature eggs collected. 4 fertilized with ICSI. On the second cycle, I got 6 mature eggs collected, and all of them fertilized with ICSI. Sending you good vibes for a great fertilization report!

Izabela - Oddly i started on cd2, was expecting to start on cd21 but i think cos im not regular they had to induce my period so the treatments slightly different. Today will be my 6th day of my dr injections. Feel sick shattered and have a sore throat. It doesnt help that i work nights. Im really hoping this cycle works for u hun and that ur embies do well and reach day 5 xx

MrsT - Have you had a discussions with ur doc about the next course of action? xx

Buny - you're having such a confusing time of it, all the ups and downs must leave your head spinning xx

Prayerful - GOOD LUCK hun, do have a date for ET? xx

Ababy - Yay for triggering!! Not long left now xx

Disney - Its a hard decision, but at least you know that the embies you have are normal . Do you know the quality of them? I think, for me it would all depend on that. I have no choice of how many we transfer back. My clinic have a single embryo transfer policy, although if i only get poor quality embryo's then they may transfer 2 but im unsure on that point. xx

Mwb - Wish you the best of luck hun, do you have betas done at you clinic? Whens ur official test date? xx

Sekky - Hope all goes well with ur ER for u hun xx

Sunshine1217 - I agree with the other ladies that it may be a bit early to test and there cud still be a bfp round the corner for you Im sending lots of sticky baby dust ur way xx

Dovkav - Good luck for thursday!! xx

Goldfish - Thanks whens ur baseline scan booked in for? Do you have any provisional dates for ec yet too? xx

Chickadee - Yay! Its good fun looking through all the meds, if not a little daunting! When do u start? xx

Beta is scheduled in exactly a week (9/26), which is 10dp5dt. I wanna ask them if we could do it 9/25 though, because DH will be leaving town on 9/26. Whatever news we get, I'd want him to be there! And I can't decide if I wanna test early. For some reason, I think I might just wait...

 

[Chickadeedee]

Congrats to everyone just triggering!!! Fingers crossed for lots of good eggs and then healthy embabies!

Buny - please don't give up all hope - keep us posted as to what next week brings. How are you feeling now?

Plex - sorry DR is making you feel sick!!

I started spotting late last night so as soon as AF arrives in full force (hopefully later today!!??) I call the nurse and I think I will start Stims either Friday or Saturday!!!

 

[ababy4us]

Thinking of you Sekky!!! Hope all goes well!

Hi ladies Its early Thursday morning here and I have just returned from the lab to get one more blood draw before retrieval. I have to go back and pick up all my meds that I will need because the pharmacy wasn't open yet. I'm excited but surprisingly calm (which is very unusual for me!). I guess my tummy is in knots a bit but at this point there is nothing left I can do besides keep eating healthy and pray

I'm wishing everyone well and I can't wait to see more BFPs!!!

Buny~ thinking of you

 

[sekky]

We got 18 eggs

 

[Prayerful]

Prayerful - GOOD LUCK hun, do have a date for ET? xx

No, not yet. I get another report tomorrow morning and they said that is when they will have a better indication which day the transfer will be.

Yay! Hope you are able to get started soon!

Woo-hoo! Only one more day to ER!

Sekky - Hope everything went well today. I'm looking forward to hearing your update when you are up to it.

AFM - I got my fert report a little bit ago... Of the 9 collected, only 6 were mature, and 5 fertilized through ICSI. I'll get another update sometime tomorrow morning. Praying all 5 continue to thrive!

 

[Prayerful]

We got 18 eggs

Oh, just saw your post! Congratulations! That is a really awesome number!! How are you feeling?

 

[sekky]

Prayerful that's a great fert report. Am hoping I get a great one too.

Ababy you are next. Fx it goes great for you too

Plex sorry the DR is making you sick.

Chick glad AF is here. Time to get the show on the road

Mwb hugs. The tww is the hardest part just keep your positive mental attitude

Today will be my 6th day of my dr injections. Feel sick shattered and have a sore throat. It doesnt help that i work nights. Im really hoping this cycle works for u hun and that ur embies do well and reach day 5 xx

Thanks huh. I had the appointment but I not yet there need to go back on Monday. Lining 6.6 and folks only 11. The folks needs to be over 16 and lining over 7 so hope by next week all OK.
The lady I donated has a not got a BFP. So I feel guilty for not donating all and having the next cycle for me. He positive is all 4 eggs I donated fertilized and she had 2 good blasts transferred. Hope she got closer and next time she is more lucky. X

Good luck with DR. When do you start stim. I used to have the nasal spray and all ways gave me almost 10 days of headaches. I was fine on stim injections. I can see working nights makes you more tire so try to sleep as much as you can as helps with the symptoms. X

 

[Izabela]

We got 18 eggs

Was great number!!! Good luck with fertilization report. !

 

[Plex]

Mwb - im thinking its probably best to wait it out but i dont know if I could!? Whens ur hubby due back? Hopefully they'll agree to doing the test a day early xx

Sekky - Yay!! cant wait to hear the fertilization report xx

Ababy - Is it the trigger shots ur going to pick up? xx

Chickadee - fingers crossed that af will make a proper appearance later today! xx

Prayerful - I bet the wait is awful hun Do you know how many you'll be putting back? xx

Izabela - its a shame she didnt get a bfp, hopefully the two remaining embies will give her the longed for bfp. Try not to feel guilty hun, you gave your lady four good chances. To egg share i only need to produce 6 eggs so theres a chance that my lady will only get 3 eggies - Im not sure how i'll feel if my lady doesnt succeed I think, like you i'll have to make some pretty tough decisions.

Im hoping to start stimming on the 7th oct after my baseline scan. so just under 3 weeks of the dr left. These injections are definatly messing me about. I got a rash after my injection this am - hope my reactions dont get worse! xx

Ababy - Hopefully your EC isnt far away hun, are u being sedated for it? xx

Not much going on with me. Am looking forward to my scan and hoping to jump onto taking stimms asap. I shouldnt be wishing my time away but i cant help it!! On a good note my boss told me that when i need to time off to just tell him and there would be no problems. Im now planning on taking the whole 2weeks off work. I'll rest the day of EC, then after ET i'll rest for the first day then take things easy for the rest of the time. xx

 

[Izabela]

Oh, totally forget to update you on my ER today...

They collected 9 eggs (from what I remember anyway!). I came home and crashed until like 2pm! Haha! But I really feel pretty good and haven't had to take any pain meds at all. It wasn't nearly as bad as what I made it out to be in my head going into it. I get to hear a fertilization report tomorrow morning!

Good number and great fertilisation report. Good luck with day five transfer and BFP x

 

[TeeinAZ]

Currently in the infamous 2ww after our first IVF/ICSI. 34 eggs retrieved, 28 mature, 6 fertilized and 2 transferred on day 5. Severe male factor. None made it to freeze unfortunately.

Today is 2dp5dt. What a emotional rollercoaster. Thanks for everyone sharing their stories and sharing their love. I'm not sure yet if I should test early or wait for my beta next week. In a weird way, this is as close as we've ever gotten to being pregnant and I don't know if I'm ready for a disappointment yet, so I may just wait for the beta. Thinking positive thoughts though!!

WOO HOO another PUPO! Welcome! and congratulations

 

[TeeinAZ]

Well ladies, I'm officially triggered! Let the POAS begin in a few days

So exciting! And I am so sorry I missed saying Happy birthday to you!!!

Yeah, definitely going to be sedated. Propofol I think. I'm thinking about testing out the trigger but I'm having second thoughts now. My trigger lasted 12/13 days with my IUIs so I don't know what I'm going to do. EC tomorrow at 10:45

 

[Goldfish]

Goldfish - Thanks whens ur baseline scan booked in for? Do you have any provisional dates for ec yet too? xx

Plex - I already had my baseline scan 2 days ago and started stimming got another scan next week to check if I've got follies growing! No provisional date for EC as I responded very poorly the first time I did IVF, so I might have to stim a bit longer - I don't mind as long as I have more follies/eggs than last time!!

Mwb - FX for your beta next week!
Ababy, sekky, prayerful - good luck with your EC/ET!

 

[mwb2040]

Plex: Yeah, I called the clinic today and they agreed Wednesday would be fine for my beta. That's exactly 14 days after ER.

TeeinAZ and Goldfish (and all other ladies): Thanks for the kind words. The tww is really the hardest part emotionally.

I have no symptoms whatsoever and I have been feeling a lot better actually. Still a little bloated, but that's about it. I try not to overanalyze, but don't we all??
