I am new to posting messages, and I really appreciate reading how you all are doing. I had FET on 8/1 and am experiencing a lot of cramping. They started about 36 hours after ET. Is anyone else experiencing cramping? I haven't had any spotting. My beta is 8/11, progesterone and estrodial tests were today, haven't heard from the doc yet. Thanks for all the good information I've been reading!
I had 7 embryos. despite 3 failed attempts Dr only wanted to put in 4. We put in 2 8 cels one 9 and 1 10 and then had an 11 and 2 6's. They did not make it to freeze either.
I was very disappointed but apparently the criteria for freezing is very very high (which makes sense). I am told that many people dont get any frozen. I was just frustrated that we didnt put 5 back in.
but fro evertything i know i do not think it is a bad sign.
the real issue is that during this period there is nothing to do but find things to worry about,, which we should all try not to do!!
Hello Ladies -
Hope all of you are keeping yourself busy during the 2WW .
All the best for all the betas - praying everyone will get BFP
Kerry:
I had my follow up with the RE today. So we are all set for IVF in Sept. He could not tell us why only one egg fertilized out of the 9 that they retrieved last month. The sperms looked fine. There could be some problem with the eggs due to my high 3 day FHS levels. So this time he will do ICSI. He also wanted me to go to BC - which I had already started since Sunday Smile Smile .
I feel the same excitement that I felt during the 1st IVF cycle - hopefully it will work this time - am feeling positive. He also told us that the embryo that he had put last time was not a very good one - it had grown abnormally in one day but they stil put it in - which was a surprise for me .... The day of transfer we were told the embryo is of good quality - Anyways that is in the past now. I will follow the same protocol since my body responded well to the medications. Am going to start with the acupuncture as well this time.
Priya & Kerry I wish both of the you the best of luck with your next cycles. I know you both will be P before you know it!!!
Priya we had ICSI done as well.
For the new b's I know there are some questions about the 2ww symptoms....i had cramps, tiredness, and boobs were sore. I know some of the other ladies had headaches as well.
As for me I've just been really tired these days. It seems like i can never get enough sleep! I have my first sono on 8/18 the wait is sooooo long.
4Fanops looks like we have our sonos pretty close.
Babyloves your beta numbers are awesome! Mine was no where near that? I had ET on 7/17, 2 embies as well, no frostites
