    I understand hon, I felt the same way when my first IVF cycle was cancelled, to go through all of that and then have 0% chance, it totally sucks. We also had a fresh cycle where all the embryos stopped growing and had no embryo transfer. The only thing I can say is keep your head up, it will hurt like hell for a bit, but eventually you deal with it and try again. Keeping everything crossed for you xx

    Kema,
    I'm so sorry hun. *hugs*. It is a hard journey IVF and the worst part is that it is so unpredicatable.
    You will get to transfer - just stay positive. The good news is that you have 21 snow bubs!! That is fantastic!! Keep healthy and positive and create the best enviro for your bubs when the transfer does actually occur.
    With my first cycle - only 1 of my embies survived to be transfered (which ended in a miscarriage) and my second cycle was cancelled a few days before pick up because of my poor response. You just gotta keep hoping that the dice will one day roll in your favour..
    Take care and look after yourself.

    Kema, please don't panic.

    I've been where you are before. My first stim cycle was a freeze all with 26 eggs collected. I ended up with four blastocyst embryos in the freezer. From those, I eventually had two transfers that sadly ended in two miscarriages. I did not miscarry because they were frozen embryos.

    My second stim cycle was another freeze all with 32 eggs collected. This time I went to hospital. I didn't get drained, but I was in there for a week. That cycle gave me 7 blastocyst embryos in the freezer. Sadly, we didn't do so well with frozen transfers on that batch. Lots failed to thaw, but we did get two transfers, one miscarriage and one BFN.

    I know it doesn't sound at all hopeful at this point, but we did end up going for a third stim cycle, and amazingly enough I did not hyperstimulate this time. I've now got one embryo on board and another two in the freezer and I'm waiting to see how things progress.

    Cancellations suck, but they are all part of the sad road of IVF. Freeze all cycles do not automatically mean that you are doomed to have every single stim cycle be a freeze all! I know it all seems depressing and hopeless at the moment, but trust in the process of IVF and that it can and does and WILL work for you. It's not always going to be a quick and easy process, but you also know that you are not alone.
