Hi Girls
After stalking this thread I have decided to join in. I have been in another thread, but since I have started IVF too its time to switch over.
My DH and I got married at Easter this year. We have been together 2 and a half years and madly in love. We are both 40 and didn't think it would happen for either of us, so we are both stoked! Neither of us thought that children would be in our lives, but both wanted them. So here we find ourselves and after trying naturally since November last year no bub in site. I went to see a FS in July and to cut a long story short have completed our first 1/2 of an IVF cycle. Two weeks ago I had EPU only to discover whilst they were in there that I have a polyp right where they would put the embryo. When I came too we were told that I got 5 eggs (Yay!!) but the transfer could not go ahead as they wanted to remove the polyp.It was a very emotional day as it was the anniversary of my DH mother passing away 3 years earlier and we thought we would have smooth sailing as she was looking over us. Ha! Not to be.
So the awesome team booked me in the next day to have my polyp removed and a D&C. The staff were amazing as I live in a country town and had to travel to Adelaide for IVF.
4 eggs fertilised and now we have 4, day 3, little frosties. I am CD2 today so we are lining up to have them put back in this cycle. Because I am 40 we are having 2 put back in. At this stage I would be stoked to have twins. Its only a 10% chance though. They are going to defrost all 4 and grow them to blastcyst stage and put 2 back in. They said if they all survive they would refreeze the ones not put in this time. Not too sure how many will survive. They said as long as we get one we should be happy.
I feel pretty ripped off that I didn't have 2 fresh put in. The scans in my home town didn't show anything on my uterus. We will be devasted if none of the 4 defrost. It will be a waste of a cycle. So I should be in my TWW with my BT on Friday, however now I probably have another 5WW. Ugh! The endless waiting.
Myturn - I wish you the very best of luck with your transfer. Take it easy and enjoy the TWW.
To all the others I have been stalking you a little bit and have been following your stories. Lets hope we are all get our very ownsoon
