good luck everyone for their EC and transfers. everyone is nearly there now!Only 10 more sleeps for me. my transfer is 6 june. good luck everyone. hoping to see lots of BFP on here next month.
after the news friday that out of 7 eggs collected... 6 fertislised...well today i had 2 embryos put back in...they were grade A and each were 4 cell...doctor said normally they like them to be beyween 6 and 8 cell...so mines are a little behind ...anyway the other 4 remaining embryos will NOT be frozen...doctor said they wouldnt survive the thawing....im a bit upset.. i feel as though im just not good enough or something...anyway im officially on my 2ww and test the 11th june.... fingers crossed and lots of prayers....good luck everyone else...xxx
Good luck Kdc! I'll definitely be praying for that 2ww to fly by for you.
I was on my way to the Day 3 Transfer today and they called my cell and told me to turn around. 6 are still developing so they've pushed me back to a Day 5 Transfer. I'm not sure if there's a benefit to this but at least they're all still doing well.
Hope everyone is having a great weekend as they round that corner for retrievals, stims and transfers.
Best,

hi everyone
hope all is going well! Son delighted to read that yours fertilised and kdc 2 to transfer is great news, kerri fingers crossed for the right ones to be transferred too!
I am struggling right now, my EC is tomorrow and it definitely feels like i have 2 footballs in my stomach right now that need deflating.. I have tried to rest loads and we have already watched 3 dvds this weekend! And I am drinking and drinking and not very good at it....
fingers crossed for all of us!
lots of love

Kristin, hope you'll be feeling better after tomorrow. Good luck for your EC, and Kerri - you're nearly there. All the best for the transfer.
I had our one embryo put back this morning and must admit I found it rather difficult to relax despite the acupuncture. But no reason to worry, all went well and it's a grade A. I've been lucky again. Trying to keep positive thoughts now as I go into the 2WW.
So, kdc, you're just one day ahead of me. Fingers crossed all the way. My test date is 12th June which is DH's birthday.
Hope you're having some sunshine. It's sooooo cold and wet here so we'll be heading off to Italy for a few days. I'm sure it's just what I need to calm me down and some warmth will do me good too.
Catch up with you next weekend. Looking forward to reading your updates.
Good luck and best wishes to everyone on this thread.
Love Son

thanks so so much for your kind and positive thoughts! I am still struggling but cannot really complain as there are 25 fertilised eggs now waiting in some refrigerator or something for us!!! The EC went OK in that they collected 30 eggs of which 27 looked good. I loved the anasthetic as I had the best sleep I have had in quite a while and then woke up to this tender pain of prodded and bloated ovaries! My dh and I went to sleep in a hotel last night as we have alot of extended family staying now and so the only way to get some privacy and quiet was to pretend that I had to travel for work...... But I am back home now and drinking and drinking and drinking and hoping that this hyperstimulation does not win over the ET!!! We are still watching loads of dvds... any recommendations?
Fingers crossed for the rest of you. The odds tell us that some of us will have some BFPs this month and so I am excited even if it isn't me this time round!
lots of love and shimmering baby dust to all!

kristen........wow !!! im speechless....25 fertilised embryos....thats really good.....omg!!!! its amazing....good luck with ET....please keep in touch... take care..xxxx
im back....kristen....im back....im %+}£"&^$&*/;, speechless.....<<< excuse the language but holy crap.... i just told a male friend about your EC....and he said tahts amazing also....he said half woman half chicken.....(doh...men!!!!).....anyway i think thats an amazing amount and i hope all goes well.....fingers crossed....
kdc- thanks for making me laugh! I have not laughed for a while as it is too tender but it was worth it this time! You can tell your friend that I ate 2 eggs for lunch, am going to have chicken for supper and am totally immersing myself in my new hen identity! And you shouldn't worry about your eggs- my over response is purely a result of pretty hands-off care. I definitely feel like I am on an impersonal conveyor belt at our clinic! We are 25 women going through each stage each week and there is little space for questions etc.. and so I am really grateful for all of your help and thoughts.
