A bit of a bad day....

[Heelsandhunters84]

So I was due to have my Fet today... Had a great day yesterday and as it was my birthday today I felt it was all destined to be. Got to the clinic to find out that my embryos had survived the thaw.. by chance I mentioned when will I be told to take progesterone. Low and behold there was a mistake on my protocol. Should have been taking it 5 days ago. So I have to wait now till Friday have my embryos 're frozen and go through the countdown again. I am in the Czech so if i was sunning it in Cyprus or Greece then it would be marginally better but I am furious that there had been such a simple oversight costing money, time and above all the potential waste of my embryos! Any frosting and De frosting stories welcome although I doubt there will be many. P*seed off and upset. X

Oh goodness. What a nightmare. did the clinic let you know what the prognosis of thawing would be? Have you any support in UK that can advise? And does this mean you'll have to stay longer?

It's pretty poor that from an admin error this has happened.

I'm no expert but I guess they're looking for the best quality eggs to thaw? So the better they were the better the chances of them thawing a second time? x

We have decided to stay till Saturday but I feel I was little gobsmacked when I was at the clinic and am incredibly tearful now. As I have 6 frozen their attitude was regardless on Friday there will be 2 embryos but I am so angry... yeah I have 6 frozen but I am very very lucky and most people only have 1 if any! I started doing something research and I understand that it can damage the embryos furher. I think I will go in to bitch mode.. I feel like this in business it's like I can't trust anyone to do anything and I have question everything. I hope you are getting on well. Xx

Oh Christ what is wrong with these people?!?! Well not me but a friend had this happen to her and now has an 18 month old little boy so keeping everything crossed for you xxx

I know! Thank you hun. From what I have seen there isn't enough evidence to say the affect it has on the embryo quality. It's lovely to hear a good story. Oh to have sex and fall preggers! Xx

Oh my god. I am so sorry to read this. You have every right to be very very cross.

Will the clinic compensate you etc. I seriously hope they are bending over backwards for you. Did they scan you to check your lining.?

You must be so disappointed.

Sending you my empathy

Thank you hun. I measured at 9.2mm so that is less which I am worried that it's gone down.

I am all for 'We all make mistakes' but of course I am so so so cross.

Hubby does not want to get in a confrontation with them to compensate us, although I do.

But I am going ring tomorrow and ask for an appointment then put all my questions together.

Very deflated and teary. It isn't the end of the world.... I even thought my breakfast was a good omen. Got served 3 eggs!

I'm so sorry and totally get why you're so frustrated! I'd be the same. I hope the procedure goes well on Friday and your embies are nice and strong for you. x

[Heelsandhunters84 in reply to _MrsC]

Thank you lovely. I feel a tad pathetic because I have frozen ones. But I think the drugs make you so sensitive. The support in this group is so amazing... It's my go to place. Xx

[_MrsC in reply to Heelsandhunters84]

You are not pathetic! Stop immediately feeling like that! The drugs are awful and make you into the worst version of you I think. I was awful! My poor hubby just said it had been really difficult bless him. Keep your hopes high and hopefully it will turn out alright in the end. xxx

What a mess up!! Hope everything still works out for you 🤞X

Thank you honey.. Best laid plans and all that. Hope your fur baby is doing well... my mum text me after my news and responded with... so sorry darling, but at least it gives me more time to get your dogs washed. I don't really want to look after them again so fingers crossed it works.... made me smile! Much love. Xxx

No Tigger passed away on Friday morning at the vets. We tried to get there in time but sadly we were too late to say goodbye.

Mum's, what would we do without them?! Xx
