Waiting defo darker your pictures are quote fuzzy bets its better in real life


N8ie- there's a lot of nurses like that hun just forget about them ! Arse hole ! Something I would ask for the follow u up app is there anything you can do to get to to full blast on day 5 I know yours were a 1 ? 3 is classed as a full Blast!

I know my 2 nd cycle I had loads only not made it to full blast on day 5 just pre blasts early blast !

I then changed clincs I only have 4 eggs then and 2 got put back other 2 made it just wasn't good enough but we're full blasts !

Something to think about like I chanhe clincs again becoz my old one discontinues the egg sharing but anyway this one 9 good embies only 3 blasts sometimes I think it's clincs lab if it's capable to get to day 5 xxxx

Waiting -- there goes the line! I so see it now! You are preggoooo!

 

[N8ie]

Raendel- thanks, did you add me? Sounds so good to have people going through the same thing as you.
Betty- thanks. I heard 4 is even better for the egg. Now I need to know how to get the eggs to be GREAT quality. What I should eat? I heard a high protein diet is advisable.

Waiting, that line so definitely darker Woohooo!!!!!!!! Congrats hun!

N8 - I am so sorry you had to deal with such an unprofessional nurse!! You shouldn't have had to deal with that on top of what you are dealing with. As you said though for now try to forget about her but at your follow up/ planning appt I would certainly mention it to the Dr. My clinic has counsellors etc available, esp. if a cycle fails as they understand what a big thing it is so to be so dismissive and rude is completely wrong. Good for you though for being so strong I'm really excited for your next cycle. My Dr suggested a wheat free and limited dairy diet... To be honest I really don't know if it makes a difference - sometimes it just frustrates me as I LOVE bread!! But I figured I may as well give it a go and see. I have also been doing acupuncture which I highly suggest.... For my 2 IUI's that failed I didn't do it but did before starting my IVF meds and I had way less side effects than I did with the IUI despite being on a much higher dose of meds. Whether I get my BFP or not I have no idea but it certainly seems to be helping with stress etc.... It is expensive though but at this point we've spent so much money anything is worth a go!!!

Waiting - I definitely see the line today!! I'm so excited for you - CONGRATS!! Keep us updated and enjoy your holiday

Hi to everyone else! So today is CD5. AF finished yesterday and today I had EWCM!! Is that normal with the Estrogen?!

Anyway I hope you are all doing well x

N8ie, I did add you to our August/September IVF thread, there are a lot of friendly faces there you will know.

WhiteOrchid, I have been on a gluten free, no dairy, low fodmap diet for quite a while now. It has helped immeasurably. My antral follicle count which was normal but borderline low at 34 has now increased to 18 at the age of 36. My absorption of my vitamins is so much better based on blood draws, I don't need my iron anymore. My endocrinologist says it looks like my body has gotten younger rather than older. Even if you don't have Celiac disease like I do, there are so many other diseases that are influenced by a GF diet that it is totally worth it. Plus you lower your bodies total carb load so if you would be someone inclined to gestational diabetes, you are fixing that too. At first it can feel overwhelming but I promise you that once you get the hang of it, you can actually create tastier food. You don't have to do without. Today I ate a turkey sandwich with multigrain bread from a company called Schär. It tastes just like whole wheat but is gluten and dairy free. Pm me if you want to talk recipes or easy swaps to gluten free foods.

Waiting, again

N8ie- yes high protein low sugar diet but basically if your embie quailty and division was fine on day 3 then your egg quailty should be fine basically on day 4-5 that's when the sperm takes over and it does its thing so it's the sperms job to get it to blast very complicated but that's simple terms but research hun I resercehed the hell out of it when I kept getting failed cycles and I changed everything for cucle 3 and it worked maybe luck but maybe not I also had a day 2 transfer which was interesting coz I felt they were better back where they belong !
I did so much research that I have chose it for one of my nursing essays because I don't need to do much work hahaha!!! X

 

[waitingongod1]

I didn't change much about diet...but I already don't drink alcohol, caffeine, or smoke. So wasn't too bad for me. For egg quality since I was donated doctor put me on coq10 vitamin. Suppose to help with egg quality. Also had hubby on L-carantine to produce good sperm (I don't think this made a difference)

 

[waitingongod1]

Cassie- how's it going?

 

[bettybee1]

White - tottaly normal for the extra discharge its estrogen that causes the extra discharge before ovulation so taken extra will just increase it
Hope your feeling okay !! Sorry did you down reg ?? Or just started with af? X

 

[chimmi]

Can I join? I had 2 day5 early blasts transferred on Monday (2days ago) we have none to freeze so everything is riding on these two...
This is our 2nd cycle, first time we only made it to day3 with two average embryos with fragmentation and neither stuck, I bled early and that was our first cycle finished..
My test date is 13.7 and I am trying SO hard to be positive, it's so difficult as I am always so pessimistic. This cycle I am having counselling through the IVF clinic which helps, and am having acupuncture. I was told my eggs were poor after our first cycle failed. So I did as much as I could to improve them, and the embryologist didn't have anything to comment on the quality this time. Anyone due to test around the same time? Am 2dp5dt today

Omg I totally c it it's definitely a in my opinion Congrats Hun

I saw my doctor today for my consultation she said all my bloods are perfect and she scaned me and said my womb and ovaries look perfect as well so Iam getting my prescription tomorrow morning so it's all starting this month when AF shows which should be around the 12th so hopefully everything will be ok she told me just to take folic acid and dh to take coQ10 to improve sperm motility which is our only problem so hopefully this time we might get some freeze

N8ie- don't worry she was rude to which she should be more considerate of your feeling at a time like this but your strong we all have to b to get through all we have with our journeys of being parents dnt worry your time come very soon don't lose heart ��
