:leap: Yay Girls well done.
So many eggs. :crossfingers: that they all fertilize, grow and develop.
I have 4 frosties waiting for my FET in the first week of December, so I know how you all must be feeling.
Its all very exciting!!! Lets hope we all get BFP's in time for Christmas.
Vic
M & HD - are you both aiming for blasties?
We are having 1 or 2 blasties t/f on wednesday (day 5).
All of ours had to be ICSI's because of a problem with DH's swimmers.
Hey ladies,
Marushke and HB - well done on a great egg haul. Lets hope there's some good embies growing in the coming days
We got 33 eggs today ( my previous highest has been 21)........ YIKES!! I am a bit stunned but not overly excited as I can't imagine they could all be mature enough to fertilse. Guess we'll find out tomorrow.
Needless to say I am very tired and more than a bit tender!
We will also be doing day 5 transfer on wed. Just hoping there are some good enough to freeze. We've never had more than 1 frostie even though a few still make it to day5/6. My clinic is REALLY strict on freezing crieria. Used to upset me but I've also been grateful that those that do freeze thaw really well and have resulted in BFP.
Off to curl up on the couch now...... grow all those embies out there for the three of us....grow, grow!
33! That's an awesome collection! FX for some frosties for you. Are you ICSI'ing any or just IVF?
We did just standard IVF - DH's swimmers are great (of which he is very proud!) - its me with all the issues.
Hope you and HB have some great embies growing right now.
Just got my nurse call - out of my 33 eggs, 20 have fertilised and they are still watching 8 so I am very suprised and happy with that. At least my old body can still do something! I would be quite content if we even got 2 frosties out of that lot - much as I hope we wouldn't need them because the fresh transfer might stick!
Now the waiting begins... wait for day 3 call... wait for day 5 transfer... wait for the dreaded BT. Time to get busy girls!!
We got 5 fert. I guess that is OK but 5 seems a bit low to me. Waiting to see how many make it to day 5... getting and update monday day 3.
Happy waiting everyone.
I got the call yesterday and 16 have fertilised which means we should hopefully get 4 good embies. We're going for day 5 as well so Wednesday is transfer day.
16 is great! Grow little embies :cheer:
Crionine starts today, blah. Is it unrealistic to hope for 3 healthy blasties from 5?
Hi Maruschke
I usually end up with a quarter of the number of embies I started with. The quality hasn't been the best for the last two cycles. Usually almost a blastocyst and a morala.
I'm praying all three of us gets one good embie that turns into a baby!
Starting the nasty crinone tonight.
xx HB
Got our day 3 update.
Of the 5 that fertilised, we have one 4 cell that is unlikely to make it, one 7 cell also unlikely to make it, 2 compacting 8 cells and 1 compacting 10 cell. Arrgggh nerves. Last time we didn't get any fert at all so I am happy that we have at least something.
Wow it has been busy in here!
Great to hear things are going well with Maruschke, Meredith and Happy baby. You all sound like you are going to have some great embies. It is also awesome that you will all be in the TWW together - nothing like sharing the craziness!
AFM - well we have had a delay with my DH's police check. Mine arrived back on Friday, but the sent DH's back as none of the ID we sent in has our new address on it! We only moved a couple of months ago. Anyhoo I spoke to a lovely girl at the Police and she said to just send a certified bill with his name and the new address on it and they will get onto it urgently. They said that IVF checks are always at the top of the list, and because we have already sent in the paperwork/payment he will be at the top of that list. Argh! So frustrating, but the positive is that I am now on day 36 of my cycle and AF is not here. So it looks like I am on one of my longer cycles this time which could be 40 days long. So keep your fingers crossed for me that they get everything back to me by the end of the week. If we get a December cycle in my transfer would be anywhere from 19/12 to 30/12 depending on the length of that cycle.
Good luck to all those girls getting ready for their transfers this week.

HB - 16embies is fabulous - do you know how they are faring today?
Marushke - I know as numbers dwindle it may seem scary but it truly only does take 1 good one. Even if you had one goodie to put in and 1 to freeze - thats still as good as my best cycles despite starting with well over 10embies!
Janie - Hoping that police check gets back ASAP and AF holds off just a touch longer!
AFM - feeling much less bloated today which is a relief. Out of our 20 fertilised, we now stand at 17 still going on day 3 so praying maybe we even get 2 frosties ( can only hope right ?!)
Yay 17 is great! Grow little embies grow :D.
Hi ladies,
Hope you are all well, been quietly stalking & praying for some happy news from you all. GL
A quick question re: my cancelled cycle. When should I expect AF after stopping the gonalf & the other drug that stops you from Oing (can't think of the name)?
Orgalutran? I'm sorry I don't know :(.
We just got a $650 bill for ICSI, yikes. Good thing it is only $230 OOP.
Hope everyone's embies are growing strong and healthy.
Yeah, that one... I tested BFN so I guess it is a waiting game for AF:
RCC - sorry, I'm not sure when you expect AF if you wree cancelled midcycle - did you actually ovulate at all or they just stopped all meds?
Marushke and HB - hope you both have a good number of strong little ones growing and ready for their mummies tomorrow!
I have my transfer at 1.30pm tomorrow - the latest I've ever had I think but my FS wants to do my transfer and is doing at end of surgery. I'm happy to wait for her as she has given me success in the past. As of this afternoon, 2 of our embies have stopped growing but we still have 15 possibles so I'm cool with that. I'll feel much more at ease when one of them is tucked away inside and I hear if any are suitable to freeze.
PUPO day Meredith and HB! FX for you both :)
