Traci,

I will actually probably end up doing mine at 6 AM because I have a cat who believes his main function in life is to wake me up every morning at that time (by jumping on my head).

So, you can check around 11ish your time.

How long did you live in Canada? I lived in NY right on the border of Canada for a short time so we were almost neighbors.

Good luck to both of us tomorrow AM!

Hi everyone,

Traci - I have posted on your other thread but I am so sorry it didnt work out. Enjoy your champagne tonight - you deserve it. Sending you lots of hugs.

Staci - You were tesing today I think but I havent seen your result. Hope no news is good news so keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Alyprying - You asked about my previous results with my own eggs. Here goes:
Cycle 1 - ISIS clinic - 3 eggs - 100% fertilisation with IVF - 1xGrade 1, 1xGrade 2 and 1 x Grade3 embies all 2 cell. 2 best ones put back. 3rd one kept another day until 3 cell and frozen. Negative
Cycle 2 - MFS clinic - 7 eggs - 2 immature - They said ICSI needed so we wnt with it - Injected remaining 5 eggs - 2 fetilised normally and one abnormally. Neither of the fertilised eggs divided so didnt get to ET.
Cycle 3 - ISIS clinic - 5 eggs - 80% ferttilisation with IVF - One dies overnight. 1x Grade 2, 2 x Grade 3 embies all 5 cells. 2 best put back and last one frozen. Negative
This is cycle 4 with donor eggs at MFS - 6 eggs allocated but poss 3 immature. IVF and one fertilised but is is a 4 cell Grade 1 so I am still hoping for the best.

Good luck to you all.

Love Allison

Hi Allison,

Thanks for asking. I actually created a new thread on Friday, which you probably didn't see, in order to wallow in self pity. Anyway, I took a HPT Fri. morning which was -tive. Last shred of hope was erased when AF arrived in full force shortly thereafter. I guess one bad thing about a 5 day transfer is that AF has a greater chance of showing up before you even get to the test. Of course, they made me go in Fri. for the real test just as a formality which was difficult.

I was basically a complete mess on Friday; felt like the world had come to end. I know you have probably been there before. I had no idea how difficult it would be to accept. I had actually thought I had somewhat prepared myself for a -tive. Wrong!

Anyway, DH and I have kept busy all weekend doing some fun things that I wasn't able to do while cycling and I am feeling more like my normal self today. We do have some frosties so that gives me some hope to cling on to for the moment anyway. I think I'm going to be afraid to actually go ahead and transfer them anytime soon though because I don't know if I can handle it not working again and then we'll have no other options.

At any rate, I posted to you on a different thread but just wanted to congratulate you on the transfer of the embie and wish you the best of luck!

Staci,

I am so sorry that you didnt get the result you wanted. IVF is so very very hard all the way through and you invest so much effort/hope/money in it that it is doubly hard when the cycle doesnt work. e got goof frosties so I pray you have better luck with them.

Love Allison.
