[Hopethisyear]

Wanting - That's so exciting it's almost transfer time for you!!! I to ended up with 2 frozen blasts and will be transferring 1 at a time.

HK515 - How did your transfer go today?

AFM - I have my Endo scratch tomorrow and am hoping it's not to bad. Afterward I'm trying acupuncture for the first time which I'm excited about. Pretty much trying anything that won't hurt my chances at this point.

For ladies doing steroids and intralipids... Is that for high NK cell counts?
How and when did you get tested for that? And when do/did you start the steroid treatment?

I have endometriosis so if this cycle doesn't work out I think it's something I'd like to look into before we use our last frosty

I had immune testing after my loss and it showed I have an elevated nk cell activity count so thats why I am doing intralipids. I start steriods today along with estrace and other meds and the intralipids will be done at my last lining check before transfer!!

Ttc- I swam in the pool during stiming once. It's was fine I just was really sore in my hips from shots so it was hard to lay on the chairs ect. Plus just got really tierd. I just did light walking. During Stiming. Haven't done anything but light walking after transfer. Didn't start doing that till 5days past transfer

How many days post transfer were u when u did your first test I have my first response waiting but just wondering how long should I wait.....hopefully I will get to this stage

I tested 5dpo5dt and got a faint bfp! I was shocked! If going to test early go with a good early detect brand!

Hi Ladies!

Just a quick note to say I had my scan and blood test today and everything is looking great so transfer is next Thursday!! I am so excited but at the same time it seems a little surreal.... I start with my progesterone and some antibiotics on Monday and meanwhile continue with the Estrace which is making me SO cranky.... well that combined with packing in 30 degree heat! 1 week today and everything will be done and I can relax! Yay!

 

[Hopethisyear]

White - exciting news about your transfer next week!

I just got done with my endometrial biopsy....all I'm going to say us OUCH!!!!!

 

[waitingongod1]

Sorry hope hope it helps!

 

[tiffttc]

Waiting- is that 5 days after they put the egg back in sorry I don't really understand most of the abbreviations on this thread lol I got first response do you think that's a good brand for early ditection??

White- congrats on your transfer next week I really hope your bean is stickey

Firstly, good luck to everyone on their journey, those just at the start, waiting for their bfp or first scan and those already in their pregnancy.
My very good friend had 2 eggs frozen from the previous cycle and these were transferred 4.5 weeks ago. She'd been on steroids for a while and was found to have high nk cells so had intralipids to increase her chances. 2.5 weeks ago she got her bfp! As I said before, her and oh have been trying for 9 years and she said she cried all day after getting bfp.
She had her first scan today and saw 1 little heartbeat! After all those scans over the years showing problems, and then this one with a tiny living thing with its heart beating away.
I'm so unbelievably happy for her and her oh and have prayed to mother nature to help this pregnancy to continue and bring a beautiful baby into the world.
Stay strong everyone!!

Thank you for that story. I will be doing the same protocol with my cycle in a couple weeks.

Hi everyone!! I haven't stopped by in a while. I had my egg retrieval Monday! They got 11 eggs, 9 mature, 6 fertilized. As of right now we are transferring 2 embryos tomorrow. Good luck to everyone else!!

Fxed for you

Yes I was tested a few months ago in preparation for my up coming cycle. They sent my blood to a Chicago lab and tested for nk cells as well as other immune diseases like lupus.

White - exciting news about your transfer next week!

Yikes I have mine I a couple weeks!

5 days after they put them back in. If it's a 3 day transfer sometimes they take a little longer than a 5 day transfer. Yes that it is a good brand! Good luck! Can't wait to see more bfp!

 

[Hopethisyear]

TTC - It really shouldn't have been that bad, but I had some issues. I put in in my journal, I don't want to scare anyone.

 

[Renaendel]

5dp5dt, threw me off at first too tiffttc. "Five days past a Five day transfer"
4dp3dt would be four days past (after) a three day transfer.

You aren't alone, we have all had to learn that.

 

[Kat_F]

First response are the best tiff

 

[tiffttc]

Waiting- I had a day five transfer grade 2 blast on my last cycle in 2012 and I got my bfp and I had a lil boy in March 2013 I used first response that time too and I got a really faint line like yours but I just culdnt remember how many days past transfer I was so Iam praying I will get my bfp again on this cycle are you going to find out the sex of your baby or are you leaving it for a surprise

Ren- o that makes sense lol I will be hoping to do a day five transfer fingers crossed my eggs are growing I have a scan Thursday morning so Iam hoping my egg retrieval
Sunday if all goes well

Kat- Ya I think it's good I have like 4 tests waiting lol

 

[waitingongod1]

Tiff- we have thought if there is one baby not finding out. ..but if multiple then finding out. ..haha who know I'm a big planner. We will put more thought in it if I sea a heart beat. Just trying to pass that hurdle and then I will feel better
