IVF with PGD #4

[ferrals5]

Onja-hoping your ET goe's well today.

Bebedream-sorry to welcome you under these circumstances i'm with Sydney IVF and they seem real optimistic as our fertility is not the issue it all come's down to a number's game how may follicle's you have to how many egg's you get to how many fertilise to how many make it to day 5 to be tested and finally how many are uneffected so yes the odd's are not fantastic but we are giving it a go before the medicare rebate is changed in jan then we have no choice but to go back to try natrually as it will be to expensive but i hope it work's 1st go or at least we can fit one more cycle in before jan i'm just waiting on the phone call that our probe is ready to start.
I will say it all made more sense to me after i spoke to the PGD nurse and the scientist sorry i'm not of much help as i am new to this as well.

Motherhood-everything seem's to be comming along i think the nurse's comment's should have put your mind at ease i hope it all continue's to go smoothly for you reading what you girl's go through is giving me insight to what i will have to go through.

AFM-still waiting for my phone call.

Hey all!

So posting the updates - on Friday finally got the call about the gene testing. Out of the 6 that fertilised - four had the NF gene but good news is that two were clear and progressing nicely! So we had the transfer today (with one) and seemed to go okay. We got to see the embryo implant which was fun.

Motherhood - sounds like everything is going along well

Bebedream - Hello I am doing PGD for a known gene defect. I am not sure how it works in your situation or if you can have some kind of gene analysis... ask lots, research lots and also have you ever tried acupuncture or homeopathy? There is a lot of research to support that alternative medicine in conjunction with IVF can increase your chances
