Thanks, Kelly! That is pretty much what my RE said. I hope it works for you. Keep us posted and I'll do the same! :)

Thanks all, especially Jade, for the tips. I know I called it a uterine biopsy, it is indeed an endo biopsy I am having. I will mention the mock cycle to the doc when I talk to him on Wednesday.

Uterine Biopsy?

I had some beautiful embryos (PGD tested and found chromosomally normal) put in in two different occasions and none of them stuck.

My RE wants to do a uterine biopsy and then put in my remaining frozen embryos. He says the healing after the biopsy makes a uterus more 'sticky' for the embryos ...

Hello Ladies-

I too am going to be doing an FET sometime in the near future. I should be starting AF in a day or two. It will be my 5th IVF, second frozen. The good news is, I had PGD done, so the three frozens I have left (two girls, one boy) should be chromosomally normal.

Let's hope, because ...

I just received a negative blood test on attempt #4, so I'll be joining the #5 group soon.

I have 3 frozen embryos, two girls and a boy (we did PGD). I expect to start AF in a few days or so. I'll keep you posted!

Hey Ladies

Got back from our little vacation yesterday and went and had a blood test. It was negative, as I expected it to be. I'm pretty pissed, disillusioned and sad. My DP is even more upset.

I have 3 frozen embryos which I guess I'll have transferred this cycle. Maybe without the borderline ...

Hey Ladies

I'm also on the pregesterone suppositories. I have to say, I almost like the shots better... Well, almost.

I'm driving myself crazy over here. Even with the distraction of nieces and nephew, I'm still counting the days... My blood test is for Wednesday and I'll actually be out of town ...

I know what you mean, Andrea! I'm trying to compare it to when I was pregnant the first time (resulting in miscarriage). That is probably a bad plan. My DP keeps asking how I feel, what I feel. She's so excited for it to work. Truth is so am I. I'll admit that if it doesn't work, I'm going to be ...

We have a couple of friends that had twins using that facility. They recommended him, but he was too far from us.

Hoping, it only takes one! The more time they get to mature, the more you know about quality. I'm sure you'll have a lot more info before your transfer.

As for after the transfer, my doc says 3 days of bedrest.

I also have a nice diversion for my two week wait, we have my sisters kids with us for ...

Good for you Andrea! I hope this is it for you!

I had my ET today too. The PGD doc is just awesome. We chose to put in two as any time the doc has put in 3 PGD embryos, there's been triplets! Yikes! So, we put in two very nice looking embryos that were already compacting as well. More good news was ...

Yeah Andrea and Hoping! Both are such a good amount of eggs to work with! I agree with you guys though... The IV thing does suck. You are dehydrated, veins are small and then they have to try and find a juicy one! Ugh!

The PGD doc called me this evening to let me know that out of the 7, 4 appear to ...

Well, had my egg retrieval yesterday. DP drove me down and we had a pleasant ride down the Pacific Coast Hwy. Nice and relaxing.

Everything went well. They retrieved 12 eggs and I just got the call that 7 fertilized. PGD will be done this week and my transfer should be Friday. I hope at least one ...
