Esperan - GL with your four embies and the transfer
theresep - Hi and All the very best for Monday.
JanieS - Hi and GL with the thawing process and everything leading up to your FET
Hopes - Glad you are happy and excited and that the Syranel isnt affecting you too badly. Its so great that we have a much greater chance of getting pg finally. All the very best of luck to you x
Miss K - excellent news - very exciting. Sound very promising - GL
Mindhugs and Mrs P – It’s so good to know someone else has done it too, during and after. My Gynae is not so keen on it, so haven’t really said anything to her. After my IUI I was too stressed to do anything! But might give it a try this cycle!
MindHugs - Good Luck with the TWW.
Mrs P - sorry about the BFN, and all the stresses of last week. Take the month and relax a little. And think that this month wasn’t meant to be.
Hopes – Welcome. Everyone here is great, and always full of advise.
JayeJaye – sorry about BFN. Its such a harsh blow when you think so positively during the month…
Miss K – Yay for the ovulation!! What have they said after the blood test?
Esperan – Happy Birthday for Monday. Good Luck for your transfer. Hope your embies are good ones! You mentioned your embies going to blastocyst. Is that the normal procedure in Australia? I know someone in the UK who recommended that we get the embies to that stage, but the one FS I saw in Singapore said he doesn’t do that as there is no proof it works better.
Theresep Happy Birthday for Monday as well! Good luck!
Loops21 – good luck with the IVF
JanieS80 – Good luck with your cycle. Any chance you can get a friend over to help look after your
Daughter? Or is it everyday that you have Pessaries (I don’t know what those are)
AFM - I went for a scan last Friday (Day 8) and was told that I had follies on both ovaries, but neither of them looked dominant, although there was one slightly bigger in the Right side (right side is useless cos I’ve had my Right fallopian tube removed) So we decided that we would give it a break this month. Going to try and see some IVF specialists here in Singapore, and try and find one we like. I’m also worried about when we do IVF, as I am away at the end of October, and was told I shouldn’t travel in 1st 3 months if we are pregnant... But think I have decided that if the time is right to do IVF we will, and I will cancel my trip. It will be worth it. (even if my friends hate me for cancelling)
Feel a bit bloated this month – think I can actually feel my ovaries more swollen. We’ve been BDing this week to try naturally, even though it’s probably a waste of time, but the practice is fun! Got an appointment with a FS on Tuesday, and gonna try start Acupuncture tonight (If I can get an appointment) I do think it helped me last cycle as I had 2 good sized eggs on Day 8 before any Gonal F to help them grow!
Good luck everyone wherever you are in your cycles..
Hi Babytruj,
I don't think it is an Australian procedure to grow fertilized eggs into blastocyst. Some do some don't. It'a actually a controversial topic.
In my case I had the option to tranfer a 3 days or a blastocyst, our FS explained all pros and cons and we decided to go for the blastocyst stage. We think that if the fertilized egg is strong enough to go to blastocyst outside the uterus, there's more chance for a successful pregnancy.
But your FS in Singapure is correct, nothing has been proven...
Girls, I'm having the transfer tomorrow, I will be back with updates!!!
Thanks for that info. I guess it all depends on how many follies you get and what they do when they are in the lab! My husband has been speaking to his friend who is on IVF for their second, so is quite opinionated as they have been through a lot, and their FS in London is very specific on Blastocyst stage.
I need to read up more about the differences I think.
Good luck for tomorrow, holding fingers and toes for you!!
Hi Ladies, haven't been on BB for a while. Things have been a bit busy and I had a lovely weekend away just gone.... so I have had a bit of a catching up to do.
Jayejaye - so sorry to hear about your BFN. I hope you are doing ok and after your come back to find success and happiness. x
Theresep & Esperan - Happy belated birthday! I hope you had a fantastic day and GL with the FET.
Miss K - that's fantastic news! Sounds promising - GL
Mrs P - sorry to hear about your crappy week and cysts. I had a Lap done about 3 weeks ago to remove a cyst on one of my ovaries. There are a number of different types of cysts you can get but mine was blood filled, an endometriosis of the ovaries. My FS wanted to drain it before I started IVF. yours clear up on their own.
Babytruj - if you fall pregnant you should talk to your Dr about your trip. You may only need to consider cancelling if you are going some where exotic, or doing something strenuous like skiing or hiking.
Hopes - from me also. That's no good about the synarel.. I am not looking forward to that.
Janie - sorry I can't help you with your Q's but GL with your treatment and the thaw.
Loops - Do you know your schedule for your treatment yet? I am doing down regulation without the pill. Should start synarel next week and have an egg pick up around 29-31 July.
Juniper - hope you are doing well and hopefully joining some of us girls in July.
Emerald Star - where are you hiding.. is everything ok? Are your IVF plans still on track for July?
JBM - I hope you are feeling better and time is passing quickly. Nothing worse than waiting, wishing you lots of luck for when your time comes again.
AFM - I went to my clinic on Wed for a chat about the IVF process, dates etc. I am doing down regulation without the pill. Should start synarel next week. All going to plan I will have my egg pick up around 29-31 July.
It's getting late so sorry if I missed anyone. to everyone.
