We’ve had the call, what a nervous wait! 2 out of 3 eggs fertilised. They’ve pencilled us in for ET Sunday but will call to see the quality before we go. They said their policy is to transfer on day 3, because of my age, 40? The clinic said it’s ok to have a glass or two of wine at this stage. We’ve got family visiting and thought I might unwind and celebrate with a glass. What’s everyone’s thoughts on this? I know they are safely in the lab now but don’t want to jeopardise anything? Xx
2 out of 3! 😁 : We’ve had the call... - Fertility Network UK
2 out of 3! 😁
Well done Gemmy that’s brilliant news!!! I just had egg collection and got 12 eggs now just waiting for the call tomorrow to see how many fertilised!
I was thinking the same re glass of wine we are meant to be out with some friends tomorrow and was going to cancel as can’t be bothered with the are you pregnant questions! Not sure if it’s worth it tho xx
Hi Gemmy congrats on your two eggs. I was told only 1unit of alcohol per day during treatment but no idea whether this is due to conflicts with drugs pre or post collection. Is extended culture to blastocyst included in your treatment costs? I decided not to transfer at day 2 as it was included in mine.
Yeyyy, great news! I was just saying to someone else that I had a wedding inbetween egg collection and transfer and the nurse said a wine was fine and to go and enjoy myself!!xx
Thank you, I don’t think we can do any harm at this stage and deserve a break? X
I've had 2 beers between EC and ET. Think the relaxing element could help! X
I just put a post up about wine lol, I have egg collection on Monday and thought a glass would taste live heaven before egg transfer so might have a glass on Tuesday night. I defo think we deserve it 😀 xxx
Same idea haha. Like Scarlett13 said, people drink weeks into their pregnancy when it’s unplanned. But do understand we go through a lot to try and conceive so don’t want to damage any chances. Xx
Enjoy and I'll be thinking about us all when I have mine xxx
You enjoy too 🥂 cheers to the embies 🤞🏻 xx
Congratulations on your two embies. Will you have both transferred if both are viable? X
Awwww well done Gemmy. That's amazing news. Bet you feel so relieved. I know I did yesterday. God luck on Sunda. Are you planning to trasfer both xx
Thank you Minibud. Very relieved. Hope they keep doing well. Good luck to everyone’s embies 🤞🏻 Xx
Awww thank you. Are you able to transfer both if you wish? X
I think embryologist said we could. They said they will discuss it on Sunday. X
They'e told me we can discuss it tomorrow before transfer to. I hadn't really thought about it as all way through I thought i would only have the one egg. I know doesn't give much better chance and there are risks of multiple births but I think I swaying to transferring 2 x
Fingers crossed. My friend delivered her ivf twins last week aged 40. They are beautiful xx
That’s wonderful news. Best of luck for your ET on Sunday x
Hello how are you getting on xxx
