Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception June/July 2014
So sorry Catyo xox
I did say I do have low Amh and DOR hence I needed higher dose! And I knew it.
I told My FS about it after and he aggreed n upped it next time.
I didn't mean to corrupt anybody xox
This journey is already hard enough and we all stumble along as best we can trying to find the best answers and solutions for each of us and one way is not the same way for everyone xox
I just wish good luck to all
Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception June/July 2014
Thanks girls I really appreciate your support as I have no one to talk to about this at all. I'm really worried I will only get 4 eggs and none of them make it, I'm having ICSI
if that helps or not but do they even bother taking 4 eggs? I'm really frustrated that I usually respond really well on lower doses yet at such a big dose I hardly respond at
all, and then to p*** me off a little more I have put on 1.5 kilos not with the meds oh no my big fat mouth has been eating everything in sight so I got on the treadmill this
morning and went and bought lots of protein and vegetables. I just have to pray that all of them are at a good size next week she's thinking I will have EP on either
Wednesday or Thursday next week cause this is the last thing I'm trying if this does not work then I'm out and I will just have to deal with not having another baby.
Sorry I'm not happier I'm just so disappointed right now especially with my stupid body
Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception June/July 2014
We only got 3 eggs despite about 16 follicles showing on day 8, for my first cycle .
Of COURSE they will bother collecting 4 eggs. 4 eggs is GREAT!
My FS, when I cried when I found out there were only 3 for me, he told me 'we only need one!' And he was exactly right. All three of mine fertilized, with ICSI, one didn't grow very well, and 2 were transferred on day 3, and we ended up with one beautiful, perfect little boy. He's now 21 months, and we're TTC a sibling for him now.
I totally get that you're stressed and worried, but your FS is doing his very best for you! Remember that his success rates with getting mummas pregnant get scrutinised by his team, and they probably get published too. So it is absolutely in his best interests to get you pregnant, and he's going to do his very best for you.
And I can't remember how much weight you've said you put on, but really, that is not the cause of your difficulties.
Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception June/July 2014
Hey Juniper, thanks for asking, I am just getting off the couch now from watching some nice comfort rom-com action! So yes, very luckily I did make it to transfer today. Four embryos were thawed, one didn't survive the thaw, the other three were still going today and they transferred the best. The two remaining were a "bit slower" and might be frozen tomorrow. FX. Although I do all this research and look at pictures of embryos online, I always wimp out at the transfer and don't really get to the bottom of what the quality was. I just am so nervous at that point that I just freeze up. In any case, all the doctor said (and as per usual it was not our FS - he hasn't done one transfer) was that it was "good". And I kind of said "um .. good?" and he said "good". Hilarious. I am just grateful to have a go, though I always get a little slump thinking, well, what are the chances it will actually turn into a little bub? But any excuse for an afternoon on the couch right now esp with the weather.
Juniper, again, how are you going? When is your lap again?
1MP, just seconding everything Pholi said. These early scans are so stressful. It is the worst. But things can change on a dime. And in the end, it really is just that one embryo that can keep on going.
Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception June/July 2014
WW fantastic news so happy you had 1 to transfer and hopefully the other will co-operate and you get to freeze as well, and thanks I've decided what's ment to be will be xxxx
Quick question I've started bleeding bright red (not happy) its not much but I've had to put a pad on, should I just hope its goes away??
Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception June/July 2014
1MP, hopefully it's not a problem but I think it's worth a call to your FS (today, if they're still open, otherwise in the morning) to discuss with them. xx
Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception June/July 2014
Sarah - dont worry honey, is not like you were corrupting me or giving me ideas xx
WW - lm so glad to hear that all went well with the transfer, hope soon you have good news
1 More - l hear you. I have been eating too much rubbish, l just had 1 bag of Raspberry chocs, l cant believe it! l didnt use to eat chocolate until l discovered those ones, and l still have 1 cup of coffe a day, whyyy?? I had not drank coffee in the last months, why now?? l feel so guilty and think l am not taking this serious. Is as if l do things to have something to blame if this cycle is not successful... I will have an early scan tomorrow, lets see how l go...
1 MP how did you with the orgalutran, did it hurt?
I second everything pholi said, and anyway, the scan was still early, l hope tomorrow everything looks great.
I hope everyone else is doing great.
Re: Long Term TTC & Assisted Conception June/July 2014
Is EWCM, the stretchy one normal on CD6?? I dont remember having it this early last IVF. I went to the toilet and l have lots of EWCM, which is weird as l rarely have it, perhaps twice a year... but never as much as i have today. I saw it and l thought oh this is what they mean when they say they had EWCM... But isnt it a sign of O? Im only CD6!
