Well it's transfer day, just started drinking my litre of water ready eek!! I'm so excited, we still have 16 embryos on day 5 which is awesome! Not looking forward to the pressure with a full bladder as i still have some bloating from the retrieval.

Thanks for all the well wishes, & Bead good luck with your retrieval!!

 

[LouiseB]

OMG wow- you're kidding! 16 blasties!!! OMG!

That's beyond brilliant!

Remember me in case i need to borrow some in a few years

I hope the transfer goes smoothly and you get your sticky BFP right away xx

 

[ScotchEgg]

i just had an image of you having 16 babies at once!!!

 

[BUGGY82]

I know we keep calling them our babies, not sure if all 16 are suitable for freezing but I'll let you know after my appointment!

 

[BUGGY82]

My 2 embryos are safely in me, they were a bit worried about the fluid in my ovaries. Seems like I'm boarderline hypostimulated but they think it'll be ok.
I got it wrong earlier I had 16 at 3 days, 8 stopped growing so no good to freeze but 8 progressed to Blasties so I now have 6 frozen & the 2 in me. Still a great cycle!
Doc told me to have a bacon cheeseburger for me dinner to help with the bloating which I'm not going to complain about ha ha! Still on the Whey protein & gatorade till the end of the week which also should reduces the fluid.
Feet up & keeping everything crossed they implant, preggy blood test booked for 14th eek!!

 

[ScotchEgg]

I'm so excited for you, good luck!

 

[Kerrieanne]

All the luck in the world to you Buggy xxx

 

[Nurse 26]

Thats great, best of luck buggy xxx

Fab news Buggy! Got everything crossed for you How does the bacon cheeseburger work?? I'm still suffering so maybe need to give that a go... lol! Looks like we're finally going to make it to blasto stage too... due to go back in on Saturday for transfer! xxx

 

[BUGGY82]

Bead that's great news, how many embryos did you get?
I'm not sure how the cheeseburger worked, probably the protein but I was a bit out of it as they gave me Valium before the transfer to stop my uterus cramping.
Good luck Sat!!

 

[Bead]

We got 5 fertilised, but expecting phone call tomorrow morning to let us know how many are still in the running xx

 

[ScotchEgg]

great news, good luck!

 

[BUGGY82]

That's great Bead, I hope they all continue to grow & you get some fabulous ones for transfer x

 

[LouiseB]

Good luck Buggy - i'm really hoping that it's a BFP for you on the 15th

Let us know if you test earlier

Good luck for Saturday too Bead
