I've decided not to try all the other fertility treatments again this time around. Everyone is new here since I used to post. Wishing you all lots of luck.
Sorry Double post
Hi! :hi: Welcome, very glad to hear that your treatments worked last time, hopefully your stay here in STC(A) will be short and sweet! :bellyrubs:Quote:

Boy, it sure is quiet in here. How are you doing?
I just had a failed IVF and have two frozen embies. It's nice to hear that you had success with a frozen embryo transfer. I'm scared that it won't work just like the IVF. Did you transfer one or two frozens, and were they day 3 or day 5?Quote:

I had 1 perfect embryo and i believe with all my heart that is my son, he will be 14 monthhs in a few days. I was sure i wouldnt be pregnant from the frozen embryo transfer! That month i refused to take a HPT because i was sure there was no way it worked. Miracles happen when you least expect it. I had 2 scheduled appointments with different fertility clinics that I got to cancel as well. By the way, im 29 now. I see in your siggy you are 29 as well. Have hope. It will happen. The hardest part is not knowing if itll ever happen.
Just dropping in to say good luck to you ladies!! Rxmomma, stay hopeful lady! FET can work!! Pinkgirl, you know I'm rooting for you all over again!!
Holy moly!! You girls are the best cheerleaders, I'm touched to have such love and support!! XOXOQuote:

pinkgirl, when is your ER? Are you doing a day 3 or 5 transfer? :luck:!!!
Hi. My ER is tomorrow and I have 30-40 follies. Yikes! Brings back terrifying memories. My last ER 2 yrs ago was awful and extremely painful. Not looking forward to the pain. I am happy I responded well. I was on a way lower dose of meds than last time.Quote:

Dr. said not to be disappointed because that's what he expected and they're both really good eggs. Millions of prayers being sent right now for those little eggies to fertilize!Quote:

I had ER today and had 29 eggs. Lots of pain still. It started easing up but it came on hard core about 45 min ago. This is my least favorite part of ivf.
Good luck! Keep me posted!!!

pinkgirl, that's so great! I know you must be in pain because that's quite a bounty! Hopefully, with 29 eggs, you'll have some embies to freeze for the future, and the pain will subside fast. The torture we have to go through! But, it's all worth it in the end. :)
Yes, we did a 3 day transfer with 2 embies--an A and an A/B. My RE said he didn't want to get my hopes up, but he couldn't remember the last time he'd seen an "A" embie like that, and that if we'd had 10 eggs fertilize, he still doesn't think we'd have one so good. I'm very hopeful, even without him saying that, because now that the clinic has done their magic, I just need my body to do its magic, and our bodies are way smarter than even the best science! Go little embies, burrow in!
Is today your ET? Best of luck to you, too!!!
That's fabulous news!!!! I think that's going to be your baby you hold in about 9 months. All you need is 1 good embryo to stick. When do you test?
Out of 29 eggs, I had 7 embryos that were great I guess as of Friday. My ET is today in about 4 hours. Of course I'm sick now and have this nasty violent cough I can't get rid of. I'm really upset because after months of preparing for this and a year of waiting to do ivf, now comes this crud. I hope it doesn't hurt my chances. We are only transferring 1 embryo today also. Dh and I discussed it and decided the pros and cons of multiples. I would have really loved multiples first ivf but now with a toddler and both working full time, we had to be a little more cautious with our decision. I feel really bad about only transferring 1 but I also have to remember other things.
I'm excited for you to test now. Now you should get knocked up with twins :-)
Thanks so much, pinkgirl. That's what one of the docs said after the ER. I was a wee disappointed because there were only 2 mature eggs when there were 4 big follies, but they both fertilized well, so I'm feeling good. I'll be thrilled to be PG, whether with 1 or 2! I get a Beta on 12/27 and I'm trying to stay calm until then. I POAS last time a couple of days before the Beta and got a BFN (when I was actually PG) so this time, I don't want to risk it and feel terrible for no reason.
I hope your ET went perfectly. Seven is a lucky number, even if you're only transferring one. That one will be THE ONE! Sorry you have a cold, but it probably won't affect the outcome. Out bodies are so smart that they can multitask when it comes to the really important stuff. :) Sending lots of :babydust: your way! When are you testing?
Woohoo! Im testing the same day as you :-) and im not using a HPT either beforehand. So itll be a surprise for me one way or the other. Lol. I had my ET. Had 1 embryo transfer and then they froE 3 embryos day 5 and 3 more day 6. Im so thankful i have frosties because i needed them the first time ad feel like i will again just because my FET worked for us last time.
Ok now we have to be strong together and pray for the best.
Oh, good! I'm glad we're testing on the same day. It's nice to be able to share the journey with someone who really understands the ups and downs. Sending tons of prayers and positive vibes out for both of us. Grow, little embies, grow!
