Hi Everyone!

We are just home from our scan and everything looks great!

Trigger injection tonight, then EPU on Wednesday and ET Monday!

It was so lovely to have our normal doc back, and he was very happy to tell us we have 12-15 eggs to look forward to.

So far so good. I'm thinking nothing but happy thoughts!

Have a great day everyone!

Thanks everyone for the possitive thoughts...keep sending them my way. I went for the scan today and had a different doc. Much better!!! He said there were between 6-7 big ones and about 7 smaller ones that he could see. I am to trigger tonight at 11 pm. ER will be Wednesday. I am hoping that the HCG and two days will allow the littler ones to catch up and maybe we will have the possiblilty of 12-14 good size follicles?? Some could be hiding too, right???

It all seems real now! I can't believe the day is almost here...again, please keep the prayers coming...I just want this so badly! (As we can ALL relate!)

To everyone else...good luck. So many are testing this week. I have everything crossed for you!

Thanks again for the support!

Congrats on a great scan LM!

Looks like we will be cycle buddies, I had my trigger last night too, and am now just counting down for our EPU tomorrow and can't wait to have Babies on Board on Monday!

I absolutely understand what you mean about having waited for this for ages, me too.

I just sat on the lounge last night thinking about it, and kept saying to DH how real it all felt all of a sudden. This time next week, I will hopefully be pregnant with our miracle baby/ies. I'm so excited and terrified!

Hi ladies
Just wanted to say its great to see all those smiley faces on the list for the July testing thread! Let's keep it up!
I have my baseline scan and bloods on Thursday and am getting nervous. Hormones are all over the place and I keep bursting into tears at nothing. Very frustrating

Got to stay positive tho, hopefully we'll be onto the next stage next week and I will start stimming!
Wish me luck.

Hi Girls

The story so far:- retieved 10 eggs
7 fertilised
2 frozen
2 transfered
3 died

So girls this is my worry. our embryologist chose the best 2 embies to transfer which were a grade 2 but the quality of the other 3 wern't of good enough quality to freeze. Does this have a bearing on the chances of my transfered embies turning into a successful pregnancy. Not feeling to positive today. Hope this makes sense xxxxxx

Hi Wendy
I am not too hot on the grading of embies etc as have not got that far yet but on instinct I would say that each one is different and you should try not to go on the condition of the 3 that didn't quite make the grade. Remember, it only takes one good 'un and you have 2 good 'uns in there snuggling down. Stay positive my dear, and try not to worry too much.
Good luck!

Hi Wendy

Stay positive. We have 8 eggs retrieved, 5 fertilised, had 2 put back on day 3, one grade 1 7 cells and one grade 2 5 cells. When the time came (they left them till day 5) the 3 remaining weren't good enough to freeze. And as you can see I got a BFP my betta yesterday was 1700 so all is looking good. Can't tell which embryo embedded but one of them did!!

Stay positive

Thanks so much for your replies Emma and Jo feeling a bit better now. Been resting loads since ET on Sat so i'm going to start doing a bit more tomorrow. But not too much of course!!!

Jo - Congrats on your beta result that's great, have you had any preg symptoms yet hun???

Emma - Good luck for thursday hun i'll be thinking of you xx

wendy.... I wont even call my RE to find out if I had any to freeze because I fear what you fear.. but I have talked to soo many people that have been though IVF and it is soo much harder for the little embryos to live outside us that it is very normal NOT to have any survive... so the fact that you have 2 is great!!!

Jo.. wonderful... congrats!!!! I put back 3.. 7 and 8 cell babies.. I just pray at least ONE sticks!!!

Emma.... good luck Thursday!!!

Hi Wendy

I've been feeling rough since EC! We went to the beach yesterday, I couldn't lay on my belly, DH suggested I dig holes for my boobs as they are too painful to lay on!!

I felt sick the week after ET but that's gone now. I'm just exhausted, completely exhausted. I didn't really do much after ET, have only hoovered twice since then (other people can do it), just take it easy. I think it is our minds that need the rest, they tend to go into overdrive during this process!

Jordan I have everything crossed for that BFP!!

Best of luck to you all

Jo
