June collection transfere anyone else?

[Leanne]

I'm back !!!

EC went ok. They found my hydrosalpingees ( fluid on the tubes) is back though and said if not prg they may have to operate again !! Had big op on them about 6years ago

However got 8 eggs ( I do egg share so thats 4 each).

All of my 4 and the recipients survived and I had 2 put back on Monday.
I had 1 6 cell that she said was text book perfect so grade 1 and 1 that was 8 cell but a little oval so only grade 1 to 2. But they were optimistic as they were good.

Now for the work situation .... went in today with my hospital note and boss just threw it to one side and said we need to have a "chat" later about it all !!!!!!!!!!! Then he left for work ( I am a Nanny) so I burst out crying - great for the non stressful part of ivf !!!!!!! I feel like telling them to stick their job!

Anyway hope you are all having a better time than me and sooooooo much look to Debz for test tomorrow xxx love to everyone else x

Hey leanne,
wow you did great thats fantastic as for the oval one maybe its a girl and wanted to get some curves early they dont know what ones will take and what wont.... im so happy for you two little embies back home for the long haul....congrats so far so good...egg share is a beautiful thing how fabulos of you to do that ....can i ask a question why dont they let you get your baby first then donate some eggs....not that that matters your on your way now

as for your boss i think your fab not picking that note up and sticking it where the sun dont shine...i would have.... i always found the best response to someone like him is .... place your tonge between your lips close and blow really hard ... im sorry but hes such a butt wipe... hey if he gets you down do this... in a really high pitched voice say YIBBLE YIBBLE ...try it ...thinking of you i hope he lightens up ...if you need me call i will be right there


lots of love hugs welcome to the TWW Debs

Hi everyone!

Haven't posted on this thread in a while but was hoping for some input. I did my egg collection on this past Sunday and found out that 5 embies made it. I have the transfer Wednesday. I know they will be tossing around a lot of stats, so I wanted to get a little background info from the specialists here . How many cells count as a good quality embie? I want to put back three in hopes of at least 1 or 2 precious miracles. So any info would be great!

Thanks!

[AuntyPebbles]

Hey Kitty,
are you excited.... i am for you, i know when i go in for implant my baby sitter (embryologist) sits down with me and gives me a blow by blow this is the level we expect to see you have this kinda thing.... just incase yours dont this is what i was told....
i had 4 embies on a day three my clinic like to see them between 6-8 cells is perfect they then look at fragmentation (all the little bits broken off) and they give this as a percentage 3 of mine where either less than 5 or 15 i cant remeber now but thats great the other one had lots of fragmentation.... we put them all back....broken down
grades 1-3 1 being excellent 3 very poor
i had 3 grade 1.5's and 1 grade 2 thats very good

my friend had 3 on day 3 out of 4 embies.. hers where
2 grade 2.5's and 1 grade 3 same clinic so same grading system

i dont think its worked for me this time (dont you shout at me im being honest) but let you know tomorrow for deffinate
BUT my friend got twins from hers two girls about 11 months old now

so what im getting at is if they tell you these arnt very good and dont hope to much dont you listen as above they know nothing about what ones will make it you can have a grade 3 with loads of fragmentation and get beautiful healthy babies from them.....

will be thinking of you tomorrow loads of hugs let us know how you get on when you feel up to it...tons of baby dust Debz

[Leanne]

Well we had the CHAT !! To be honest it wasn't that bad. Thing he had the day to calm down. He basically asked what was going on and if I had anymore appointmnets due and that it would be impossible for me to have time off in the next 2 weeks as they were so busy. I said that I had been into hospital to sort out my damages tubes ( not a whole lie) and that the reason I had so many appointments in one go without any notice was to access my tubes and ovaries for cysts...blah blah.. gave him lots of girlie technical stuff and how it could end in tubal surgery or even hysterectomy if not dealt with now - again not entirely a lie - but needs must !!! Thing I flowndered him and he was fine.



Debs, I can't believe they put 4 back in??? ours only do 2. Lucky you. As for the symptoms I have read so much about how different symptoms come and go and to be honest I really don't think they cn be an indication. Most women at this stage would be totally clueless they are pregnant. So hang in there and keep positive for just one more night x I found getting my husband to do the test and not seeing helped me come to terms with my negative last time as I then convinced myself I hadn't been through it all. Crazy but it helped.

As for egg sharing, I do my cycle with my recipient and she pays for a bulk of my treatment ( don't know who she is) that is why it is done at the same time, if I waited until I had a baby then did it I think it would be a marvolous thing but feel I will have already done my bit. The eggs are shared equally and if there is an odd 1 I get it. I have done 2 lots of egg share before and one lady fell pregnant and one didn't.

Love your view on the curves !! I'm very curvy -- ( very bumpy too haha)
Also love your stress relief - made me chuckle, will be trying it out soon

Jess, I was such a moody cow leading up to transfer, am fine now - very weepy but then I have had a lot to weep about !!! Everytime my Dh says thats it, not doing this again if you turn so nasty! Laugh about it now though.

Hellokitty - I agree that the number and grade doesn't reflect the result. I have always had good eggs put back in but they have had fragmentation - this time I have been told my 6 cell is text book perfect !! Will have to wait and see. My view is that when they tell you they are good it helps with pma. But when they are bad - don't give up.

Good luck Tanya and Vita - hope you are feeling ok x

[Leanne]

Forgot to ask - I am really calm and laid back about 2 ww at mo. but problem I always have is I am scared to sleep on my tummy and that is my usual position. I sort of sleep in the recovery position and always worry that I will be stretching something or putting too much pressure on my tummy - anyone any input to this ????????????

[AuntyPebbles]

Hey Leanne,
glad you go that talk out of the way, sorry for all the language if i get a poss i will have to watch my mouth...LOL...

my usual position is on my tummy(recovery position) if you ask my hubby i take a diagonal sleep accross the bed too (cheeky) but i manage to make the TWW on my back not comfortable for me and i dont sleep too well bed at 11 up at 4ish lounge on the couch... im not sure we can do any damage at this stage but i too get paranoid about squishing anything...LOL

about the 4 i cant believe we had 4 and may well get nothing from it it just goes to show you never know and 1 can be better than 4...im lucky my DR is a sweetie he said we where aiming for twins so 4 would be great to get two...

Well heres an official welcome to your TWW and dont forget to come see us with all your mad moments..... i may need a couple of days to sulk but i will still hang around...if you will all still have me

lots of PMA hugs good luck Debz

Hey guys
Well I am on day four and I am starting to have slight cramping. Not bad at all but nonetheless I am worried. I dont know what it is. I am worried when I have symptoms and I am worried when I dont. I dont get it. I just want to know right away. I go in on Monday for my beta....we will see. I am moody as all get out on the PIO shots and I am looking forward to having a really good reason to keep them up!!! I hope that things are going well for you guys.

Aunty-Keep your chin up girl. You dont know for sure until tomorrow. I am so excited for you to find out. You must be as well. I am rooting for you with four little ones in there I hope that you get at least one out of the deal!!! Then you wont have to worry about the beer thing until later.

Leanne-glad that things went well for you with your boss. That is all it takes usually just start talking technical girl stuff and they usually cave. That is pretty neat about the egg sharing thing. I didnt even know that they did it. Good for you to do that and help someone else out as well as your own costs...

Jess-I am feeling the same way you are-moody and crampy! LOL hope that this is for the best and that we have babies to show for it in a little while.

Take care everyone
Tanya

[Leanne]

Has anybody else come out with flu like symptoms ? I just ache all over, cn't control my temperature and am totally shattered. I think I read ages ago that flu symptoms are sign of the killer cell thing ??? Help me get my pma back

Hope your prayers were answered Debs xx

[JESS FITZ2]

Tanya- Yea, again lastnight with the cramping I am starting to worry too.
I dont know if it's a good sign or not? And I am so moody! When do you test?

Leanne- Monday is coming fast! Did you take any HPT's? Let's see that BFP!

Aunty- I am waiting to hear your news! Come on BFP BFP!

When people do take HPT's what day after transfer would it show a positive?

I'm only 6 dpt so I know its to early but, i know I will cheat and take one before my Beta Test next Wed.!!!

Take care everyone! JESS XXX

[AuntyPebbles]

hey ladys well im still waiting for my call so im more than sure now its my BFN very sad trying to pick myself up.... lots of love to you guys i hope im the last BFN for june


hugs thanks everyone Debz

[Leanne]

Debs. I don't know if you have had your results yet but don't give up hope. Until you get the result there is always a chance. I would have thought though they would be quicker telling you a bfn as it would be more obvious ??? Hang in there chick hugs and prayers xx

[AuntyPebbles]

hey Leanne your such a sweetheart,
i just know because i have two friends who went to the same clinic bot got there BFP at around 10.30 am...and i got my BFN last time after 2pm i was told thats the norm....
