Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception - June #1

[~BecD~]

TG - Well done on getting 6 - have you got your fert results yet? Like TL said, it's definitely better than ended up with OHSS. Keeping my fingers crossed for you xxx

TL - Hope you feel better soon, bronchitis sucks!

AB & JBM - you guys are sick as well! Sounds like everyone has got a bug at the moment! Hope it clears up and you get well soon

Well my weight is now only a kilo off normal which I am very happy about. I am feeling 100% better than I was, I never want to experience OHSS again! I took my last Provera tablet today so AF should arrive in the next couple of days.

Trying to scrape together the money to pay for the last cycle, how do people afford to keep doing this time and time again? Thank god FET's are cheaper than full IVF cycles, finding 8k upfront is ridiculously difficult.

Hi All,

Im just lurking around here, was going to stop trying now that we have reached the 12 month mark but some lovely ladies have given me some strength to go on for a little while longer, so i thought i might come in here for a bit of extra strength. Good luck to everyone, may you all get bfp's soon.

Hey Ladies, thought it was about time I joined this thread as I have been lucking for many months.
This is my first IVF cycle so any advise or knowledge is greatly appreciated.

Had bloods and US done this morning and had a total of 10 follicles:-
(my dosage is 125 Peregon and using Orgalutran)
Right Ovary - 20.2, 16.2, 16.0, 13.4 and 11.6
Light Side - 21.6, 16.2, 15.5, 15.3 and 13.5
Endometrium measured at 7.4
The nurse will call back this afternoon to discuss further dosages. She also gave me the Ovidrel for latter in the week and two lots of Pessaries.
I hope this all looks good, the nurse still thinks EPU will be Friday...
I look forward to sharing our journeys together, and will pop in latter and check how you are going on....
Have a great day ladies

Hi Everyone,
Well I am not sure if this is good news or bad news??? I am so confused.
Got our fertilisation results and they are as follows:
6 eggs collected
5 suitable (ICSI)
4 fertilised
3 look suitable for a transfer

Just spoke to my nurse and she said the scientists are pushing for a day 3 transfer which means transfer is tomorrow...

I was always told that I was to ahve a day 5 transfer which looks like most of you girls have had. Is a day three transfer less sucessful? Does this mean I won't have any embryo's to freeze?

OMG I am so confused, I feel like my body has failed me. My nurse said we need to be guided by the scientists and experts.

Has anyone had or heard of anyone with success with a day 3 transfer???? I hope so.

Help please...
