Hi everyone! Sorry for long time between posts... I really am the world's worst poster!
Mia's mama - 5/6 fertilised is great!!! Good luck for results - can't wait to hear how you go, I'm sure there'll be at least one ok in there!
I have 4 embryos the first PGD cycle - I know what it's like to get "poor" egg numbers - they had me on the maximal dose of 600 units FSH the last 2 fresh cycles which is super-depressing. I brought up egg donors before my Gynae could but he seemed to think it was all going to be ok. So don't give up on your eggs yet!! He also gave me Luveris for 5 days this cycle, which is LH. Maybe that's what helped??? Who knows. Anyway, thinking about you and hoping it's all ok. Are you transferring one or two embryos?
Molisa - congratulations on your pregnancy! Great to hear everything is going well!
Jaki - glad to hear things are all good!!!
AFM, am 10 weeks and going for another US tmrw. US 1 1/2 weeks ago was ok, I've just been super-anxious given the 3 previous m/c but everything seems to be going fine. Still keeping my fingers tightly crossed and haven't told many people... waiting until 12 weeks, not long now. Thanks for all your thoughts!
Hi there ladies,
Thanks for all the thoughts...No good eggs for me. I'm not sure what to think or do. They were all perfect BUT, all had different chromosome abnormalities...again. From some reason, this has been the problem and not chromosome 22 as suspected. I am upset with my doctor as I told her I wanted better numbers this time...if not I wanted to cancel the cycle. But, to be told confidently I had 9-12. Great! But, to only have 6 retrieved, I was upset....mainly with my doctor.
foxy- Can you please tell me about your doctor? You're at MIVF, right? If we do it all again, I will need to find a new one. She told me the max dose was 450, started me on 375 until the first u/s and then increased to 450. "I've given you the max dosage, there is nothing more I can do for you". Enough of me!!! Sooooo happy for you! 10 weeks!!! That is amazing!
molisa - Still thinking of you and hoping the best for this pea pod...going so well so far!!!
Oh dear Mias mama, i am so so sad for you. I really thought you'd get a transfer this time
New Dr sounds good, cant hurt to have a change. I always raged after my unsuccessful cycles, all i can say is go thru the emotions, feel the grief because even if ppl dont 'get it' in real life, all those feeling and are so real. You need to feel them, live them, then brush off your knees and start again.
xoxo
