Beth, lol! could be . I paid for assisted hatching but didn't use it. Still waiting for my refund .

 

[star25]

What is assisted hatching ilt? Heard of it but never seen an explanation xx

 

[MoBaby]

My clinic includes everything including storage for 3 years and icsi and assisted hatching in the fee. I was thinking about asking for it just because its included lol.

Aurora -- Lots of Menopur. I was on 4 my last cycle and will be on only 1 my next cycle due to us taking a lower dose approach this time along with 250 Follistim. It's really annoying have to mix all those vials, but you'll get the hang of it.

Beth -- Wishing lots of luck for you, hun! I have heard about the glue. Sounds interesting!

Comfy -- Hang in there, girlie. I know how hard it is to not have high numbers since I am also a low responder and have low ovarian reserve, but we really need to focus on quality over quantity!!

Mobaby -- You are a strong lady after all you've been through. Gives me motivation to not give up and know I too will get there one day. We all will. 35 follies, amazing!!!! Hopefully you won't have OHSS, though

Star -- Hope af does show earlier for you!! Yay.

ILT -- I am sure you will have a nice, high number today!!!

Goodluck Jaybo and Libby on ER's!!



AFM -- ohhhh, nothing. Just here waiting

Star, assisted hatching is where they "helped" the blastocyst to hatch by breaking the outer layer in the lab. Supposedly, it helps with implantation.

Mo, my clinic will do automatically if needed. But if you have 5 day hatching blasties, they probably don't need it because they are already half way day according to my embryologist.

BMW, thank you!!

Ohh I see, embryologist said some of mine were hatching but she didnt say how many or really explain it so wondered what it mean

Beneath, the waiting definitely sucks, how long til you can start again?

[MoBaby]

Congrats, Libby!!! Get some rest.

So ER all done and dusted for me too. You were all right of course, the proceedure is nothing to worry about, and the sedation was rather pleasant! Sadly they only managed to retrieve 3 eggs. Feeling completely gutted at the moment, just hoping we will get a good update on our 3 eggies in the morning.

Libby - glad to hear your ER went well. 16 eggs is great! Hope you get a good update tomorrow too. Lol, loving your LO's doddles.

Arora - that is a lot of meds! I was on 300 menupour, but wonering if I should have been on more now! Hope it does the trick for you.

Hi Beth - good luck for Friday. I was exactly the same. My left ovary didn't respond well and only my right had follicles on it in the end. Fingers crossed for you.

Comfy - so sorry you're having a hard time. IVF really takes its toll on you, I can't imagine trying to cope with everything else you're going through at the same time. Stay strong, it will all be worth it in the end. Hope you get a good report on Friday.

Star - glad it seems AF may finally be on her way.

Mo - wow 35 follies!! That's an amazing number, hope you don't have OHSS & your Dr's are keeping a close eye on you.

Beneath - Hi! The waiting around through IVF us painful. Hope you're doing ok.

Sorry if I missed anyone, I'm still a bit drowsy Time for bed I think!

 

[beneathmywing]

Jaybo -- sorry you didn't get a better number, but don't lose hope! Hope your baby/ies is in those eggies. I have heard lots of stories of women only getting 2-3 eggs and getting a bfp! stay positive

 

[Jaybo]

Thanks beneath! xx

Ahh this thread does move so fast! I think we will all forgive one another for not mentioning everyone each time as we all try to keep up with the news and us newbies get to know everyone!

Jaybo - as the others said you only need 1 good egg so fingers crossed for you. I've been told to expect low numbers too as I've low amh and only one ovary. I hope all 3 fertilise. When will you hear about quality?

Libby - glad ec went well, 16 eggs is amazing!! Thanks both for updating that the sedation is nothing to worry about, I feel better now!!

Star I hope af doesn't keep you waiting for long. So funny that we've all spent ages desperate for her not to appear and now we want her here yesterday haha! I'm still ttc this month, not sure if that's the right thing to do or not.

Mo 35 follies, you must be an amazing responder, that's great! I wonder how they can see so many on our tiny ovaries!!

Comfy - the other ladies have said exactly what I am thinking too really. Sending huge hugs to you. Be kind to yourself at the moment, try to focus on being calm. I have been practising fertility yoga as well as using aromatherapy oils for destressing and relaxing and I do find that it helps.

Hello to everyone else!! I will try and put my notes in my sig in a mo so it helps people remember.

I told my boss I'm having ivf today. She knew about my mmc last jan and knew it was on the cards but she's 4 months pregnant so yeh, I've had better conversations. She's very nice about it all but I can't help being gutted. I started ttc a year before her and she's 4 months gone and I'm still not pregnant. On the positives though my hubby and I both got our annual bonuses today, happy payday!!!
