IVF/ICSI/FET Round 2 (or 3, or 4, or 5, etc.) ladies trying again in 2011

[Isi Buttercup]

Hi ladies.....well, decided to start this thread for ladies with previous failures who will be trying again in 2011.

I had a failed cycle in early November. My frosties aren't any good so I will be trying again in February, on a fresh cycle. I have changed FS, so hoping to get better quality treatment this time.

Hope someone will join me

Hi Isi

I feel like saying SNAP lol! I had no luck in Nov (it did work but I had an early miscarriage) and had no frosties. I am also getting going in FEB (egg collection at the start of Feb if all goes to plan).

I am on the short protocol as the long protocol oversurpressed me and my very first cycel was cancelled due to poor response. Do you know what protocol you will be on this time?

Good luck x

 

[Isi Buttercup]

Thanks for joining me, Silarose

I think I'll be on the long protocol again, as I responded quite well to it the last time. I have mild PCO, so that might be another reason.

So so sorry about your early loss hun. I didn't get pregnant at all, but my pain was so raw.....I can only imagin how you felt. I pray 2011 brings us our babies .

Did you have a 3 day or 5 day transfer last time?

 

[wishful think]

Snap here too!!! Had first cycle of ICSI in November and it failed. Starting cycle number 2 in late February!!!

[Please]

Helen thank you sweetie, it means so much having support when starting on this new scary journey. Do you know what my first appointment may involve? TY Abby

Hi sweetie. It might probably involve a chat about your history, blood work and a pelvic scan and semen analysis for your hubby. It varies really. But its mainly to determine what protocol to put you on. That will determine if you start stimulating at the start of your cycle, or whether you'll down regulate first (from day 21 of your cycle). With your appointment in March, you might be able to start that same month or in April. Wishing you loads of luck

Oh, and my name is Isi . I was sending to Helen but I see how it looks like I was signing my name.

Hello ladies

Glad to see lots of familiar faces here. Let's hope this will be an uber lucky thread lol!

Isi - I had a 5 day transfer last time. Was a bit of a shock as my first round was cancelled due to poor response. I only had 6 eggs second time round - but 5 were good ones and we ended up with 2 near blasts to put back in. Still feel really gutted about the miscarriage but am on the mend now. Ready to go again now - don't thnk I'll be as nervous now I know what's coming. How many eggs did you get? Dod you have a 3 or 5 day transfer?

Please - there is an american clinic called 'advanced fertility' that gives loads of accurate, easy to understand info about IVF if you are interested. I have found it really helpful. I know that some people don't like to read up too much but personally I have found that reading up on things really helps me to understand what the doctors are saying and to help me ask the right questions. I then feel reassured. Suppose it's a matter of choice as some of my friends haven't wanted to read at all as it made them feel nervous. But that site is good if you are like me and like to be 'in the know'.

 

[MySillyGirls]

Hi, ladies! I start lupron tomorrow and then the stims in one week. My protocol this cycle is 300 follistim, 75 repronex nightly before trigger.

 

[wrightywales]

hello ladies

id love to join you ladies.

ive just missed out on FET in january as the embryology dept is closed for decontamination till 10th jan and im due to ov a few days before so i will be having natural FET number 3 in february. very gutted as hubby wont be here in february so i will be going on my own. so wanted him to be there with me but its something he cant get out off. i have 24 little snowbabies waiting for me and i am really hoping they will let them go to blasts as this will be our last treatment. just cant afford to go private at the moment but you never know what the future will bring.

Good luck ladies praying all our dreams will come true in 2011

to all xxxxx

Thanks Silarose!!

I got 12 eggs....9 fertilised and were all doing great.....until day 5 when I got only 2 blasts...with the rest still at morula stage. I have a feeling my former hospital didn't have the facilities for a good blastocyst culture :shrugs:. But who knows really? They transferred 2 blasts and 1 morula, so I was really shattered when it didn't work out. It took me a while to recover. I've gone back to my old FS, as he understands me better. He only does day 3 tranfers, so I was apprehensive at first....but I've decided to go for it and see how it works out. I pray we're 2nd time lucky
