Ladies doing IVF or IUI - 2015 (9 BFPs!)

[Loubalouba]

Fingers crossed for your little bambino embryos �� when do you hear? Are you heavily sedated for egg collection then? It might be us in April!!

Good luck Hun I am sure this will be your cycle!! You keep visualising, try the body scan I mentioned in the other thread and visualise implantation after transfer?

Thanks! Yes its not a GA but you do sleep. Some people hear them speaking but I didn't.

Ok I will find that and have a go!

I get a call tomorrow morning to tell us how many eggs fertilized. I am going to ask the embryologist about egg quality but the nurse said today that this will determine embryo quality which we find out later anyway.

 

[kkheartsbaby]

Thats a great result blueflower... now you can get some rest after all that def be sperm meets egg overnight

 

[Blueflower]

Just had the call! 11 fertilized! Apparently I am the star of the day! He said they have just fertilized so are at the 1 cell stage. Those super sperm had a busy night! The eggs were quite young so must be why they took longer and the other 2 must have been too small. But 11 is amazing! I asked about egg quality but he said they can't tell at the one cell stage.

I know the numbers will diminish but the whole point of IVF is to increase our chances of getting the perfect embryo. Our little baby or twins are among that number! So happy!

Next visualisation is them dividing with perfect chromosomes!

Brilliant news Blueflower, keep that visualisation going, picture next Christmas with your little bubba/s x

 

[Blueflower]

That sounds like a nice image! And my first Mother's day next year!
Feeling so full today, really uncomfortable! Must be the fluid re-filling the follicles.
Just done the 1st Clexane injection, stung a bit but was better than I feared.

How is everyone else doing? Anyone started stims yet?

 

[Loubalouba]

Amazing blueflower! When will you next here... ? Got everything crossed for you! So will transfer be in 5 days approx? Is it best if they reach blastocyst stage?

I am getting nervous about starting it all...

How do you cope in the tww? When do you start testing? I know they say wait 2 weeks!! But do people test earlier?

I hear how they are doing tomorrow and get an appointment for the transfer. They should be 6-8 cells by then and should be blastos at transfer, yes its 5 days after collection.

In my last 2wws I distracted myself with a good book, had plenty of rest but moved around enough to keep my circulation going. Walks and things. This time I will also visualize what is happening. The last times I think I knew when the embryos had gone, I felt a sense of loss but also wellness as if my immune system said "aren't I clever, I've got rid of those foreign bodies for you". This time my killer cells are staying away!

The clinic told me to test 2 weeks after collection, 10 days after transfer and the wait was agony! You can't test too soon because the trigger shot is still in your system so might give you a false positive but last time said the next time I might test with a cheapy a couple of days early just to be prepared. Otherwise that 'testing day' is terrifying! But I didn't know I would be doing this positive thinking so I will see how I feel nearer the time!

Hoping your embies are developing perfectly blueflower and you get a great update on quality tomorrow good luck x

 

[Blueflower]

Thank you! Is it your transfer tomorrow! Hope you get top quality blastocysts for transfer (& freezing if you've chosen to.) x x x

 

[Blueflower]

Just had a call from the clinic. All the embryos are still developing! She said the majority are Top Quality! That's amazing because it wasn't the case last time! Thank you Marisa Peer! Blastocyst transfer on Wednesday. I know that the last 2 times we were left with less than we expected by then, but this time it will be different! We will have top quality embryos for transfer and freezing and at least 1 or 2 will be our little babies! So excited!

How's everyone else doing? X x x

 

[kkheartsbaby]

Blueflower thats fantastic all making it to day3 and growing... well done embies

Well im now PUPO One top blasto on board. We have two on ice xx

 

[Blueflower]

That's fantastic! We will be just 2 days apart for testing etc!!

 

[kkheartsbaby]

Yes how amazing that we'll both be talking and reassuring our blastos that they're in there warm, loving, safe home

I have tucked a photograph of my wonderful blasto into the Marisa book... they took a pic and also showed it on the tv screen to us before preparing its journey up the baby tunnel X

 

[louielly]

Ah that's really nice kk. We didn't get anything like that with ours.

Good luck for Wednesday Blueflower. It's nice that you 2 are in the 2ww together! X
