Hi all. I had my egg collection today a little sore but glad it's all over. They said I had 6 mature eggs. Is this a good amount?

Glad your EC went well hun, but try not to get too caught up in what a 'good' number should be. We're all different, and it truly is the quality and not the quantity that counts. You only need one good one after all.

Fingers cross for the next few days. It really is a rollercoaster we're all on.

Hi amie1, I only got 4 eggs and only 1 was good enough to be put back in and I will be 15 weeks pregnant tomorrow. So try not to worry. Xx

Hi amie1. All down to quality of the eggs and fertilisation. we can 15 eggs and only a few fertilise, so fingers crossed that all yours behave properly. Good luck with it all. Thinking of you. Diane
