Hopefully 3rd time lucky...

So I had egg collection yesterday which resulted in a whopping 18 eggs! Twice as many as last time! The good news today is 13 have fertilised so hopefully some get to day 5.

I've had a failed fresh and frozen transfer so hopefully this is my 3rd time lucky.

I was in a lot of pain yesterday but that has defo eased today, I will know more tomorrow how my embroys are progressing but feeling positive about it all.

Sounds like an absolutly great start...good luck with the rest of ur cycle and fingers crossed its 3rd time lucky for u, we had 18 collected 13 mature but only 8 fertilised! 5 made it to blastocyst but only 3 were good enough to freeze! We had to have a freeze all because of risk of ohss if it wasnt for that the 2 that never made freeze could have been transfered, hopefully u will be in a simular or better position x

Hi Belfast1. Well, that's certainly a massive start - well done! Just wishing you huge luck that you get some blasts and hopefully some embies to freeze too. Make sure you drink plenty for a few days, as that was a big result and your ovaries may still be a bit active. Thinking of you. Diane
