Thanks for updating!
I am on my second FET. I have all the same worries but at least at our age our eggs should be good quality, so that is a positive thing.
During the first go, 3 were thawed and one didnt survive - so they thawed 1 more. They put 2 back, but really only 1 was dividing ok. But that is all it takes!
You have an excellent 9 - so probably enough for 2 FET? I have 8 left and this time they are going to thaw 4 from the start. I feel like telling them to thaw the whole lot to try to get 2 good ones to put back!
I am sure our little frosties are strong - if they survive freezing temperatures surely they will make strong babies?!!
Here, they can only transfer 2. Can you transfer more?

Lumi,I am in Arizona, so we can transfer however many we choose fit. I will be transferring 3, I think... I am afraid to transfer too many, but I am more afraid to not become pregnant...Very confusing.
I am hoping to have enough for 2 FET's. But with such long downregging, I don't know how many more months I can stand this Lupron. It is really wearing me down.
I hope this go round works for you... I am sure it will!
You are right, all it takes is one

Jenna-31, DH-38
TTC for 3 years naturally-got pg dec 04 M/C at 6 weeks
Went in for EC, got 25! Only 9 fertilized, not bad!
Total freeze due to OHSS :(
4 beautiful thawed embies transferred on the 13th
Test date moved up to the 22nd!
Hi there - don't worry, we will all be here to help! Good luck with it all
Jenna - that is a tricky thing to decide (how many to ET). In a way I am pleased that the descion is made for me. I think 3 max is sensible though.
How long does lupron take? I am on buserelin. As I have PCOS and long irregular cycle, I dont think it makes many changes to my body ie. I havent ovulated since my last period anyway and I wont have AF before the transfer. Once suppressed I will start oestrogen. I dont know if medically that is true, but I tell myself that and so dont feel many changes going on. I am headachy though . I am on bus. for 2/3 weeks, then bus/patches for approx. 2 weeks. before ET.
Keep in there with the Lupron! :

Hi there - it's such a relief isn't it when AF finally decides to make an appearance Mine showed up last week and I have my scan on Wednesday to see how the down-regging has gone. Hopefully I will be given the go ahead to start the stimming drugs and move on to the next stage. I never thought I would be looking forward to injections
How are you feeling - let me know how you get on with the consultation and what your dates are going to be?
I had my baseline scan today and everything went well, so I am starting my injections tomorrow ( 1 day earlier as they want me to be ready for E/C on my planned date of 13 June).
That's great news, Chrissy. It really helps to have those dates to see into the future and feel like things are moving forward! You sound happy! Hope everything goes perfectly to plan for you.
