Hello strangers....

Hi everyone, I feel really bad that my last post was literally at the start of my meds....since then its been a bit of a roller coaster, as we can all understand.

My cycle went really well, we had 13 eggs collected, of which 9 fertilized and 5 made it to day 5.....

I found collection fine in terms of the process, the staff were great and I was fast asleep for the whole time. I was sore for a few days, but apart from that I as ok.

Transfer day came and all good....

Christmas day was test day and up to this point I had no spotting, just a few niggles, but felt that was normal. We honestly thought it was going to be a positive test....unfortunately, it wasn't meant to be and we had a BFN and I came on my period that day. I drowned myself in a few well deserved red wines....

So here I am today -

4 snow babies and we are due to undergo a frozen embryo transfer during my next cycle - I am due on my period on 25th February so I have to call up on that day to understand what happens next. I believe the transfer will take place after ovulation, so next few weeks.

How do you all feel? Its been a hard few months - 2 of our friends have announced they're pregnant, another has recently had her baby and I find myself avoiding seeing them as its all they seem to talk about.....I know that sounds selfish, but its heartbreaking isnt it?

I'd love to hear from you - if you want to ask me questions about meds, last cycle, anything just ask.....xxxxxxxxxxxx

I had 5 blasts too. Used one on our first go and today we're using one of our remaining four frosties (just praying it survives the thaw). I don't know how you'll feel when you reach this point but it's like someone else said to me this morning, once you've had one bfn it's harder to get excited and/or be so positive. I'm a bag of nerves today. Anyway I just want to wish you lots of luck 🍀🍀🍀 x
