Hi lovelies, so we’ve got our follow up appointment tomorrow and to be honest with you I’ve not thought much about it this past week, I doubt they’ll shed any light on the chemical pregnancy, and I just feel so deflated. I cannot believe for a 6th time I am having a follow up appointment, I’m so far over this now that I could scream!!
Sorry just a little meh I suppose.
Xxxxxx
Hope it goes well tomorrow Aleelilook and you come out of your appointment feeling more positive and with a plan. Xxx
Thank you, onwards and upwards! Xxxx
Don’t apologise your entitled to feel fed up! Wishing you lots of luck for tomorrow, I really hope they give you some answers xx
Thank you lovely! Xxx
I don’t blame you. I hope they do say something positive to get you through it. Keep strong 💪
Thank you! 🤛🏻🤛🏻🤛🏻
Urgghhhh I know that meh feeling, I wish it would p!ss off to be honest!!😥😂Hope the clinic will have some suggestions for the way forward or maybe it's just been bad luck. I hope you get a plan to move forward lovely!!xx
Thank you lovely, it can all definitely piss off!!!😂😂😂
I probably would scream, shout and rant if I were you. What a rubbish position to be in. I assume you’ve had all the possible tests going? Xx
Well no not really, when it got to round 4 they had given me the scratch and steroids etc etc, but all of our embryos stopped developing, hence the donor eggs, and now this one failed so who bloody knows!!! I’m hoping it was just bad luck as we are going to run out of money!!!! Xx
Have they tested your hubbie’s sperm any further? Fragmentation? Karyotyping?
No they didn’t as the senior embryologist watched all four rounds of footage on the embryos and apparently it was clearly the eggs issues! This round with donor eggs we had brilliant fertilisation and blastocysts with Frosties and everything! So god bloody knows 😫 xx
I’m a one track record but with my husband’s chromosome translocation all the embryology data made it look like an egg issue but it wasn’t. Although to be fair we didn’t do embryoscope so they had less to review. It’s so rare that I don’t think they think of it as a likely cause of problems. I believe karotyping is a relatively cheap blood test, if you did decide you wanted to rule it out. But as you say, it’s almost certainly bad luck so I’m wishing you so much luck with your frozen blasts x
Ah it’s not that expensive? I always had it in my mind that it would the super ridiculous prices! The only thing I would say is our outcome with donor eggs was so much better, (but I’m not doctor!!!!) did your embryo quality vary from round to round? Xx
First round only one fertilised, second round they changed my protocol and did icsi and we got 6 fertilised but only one blast and nothing to freeze, third round similar protocol and got four blasts, all frozen but now we have knowledge so they did pgd and found that two carried the unbalanced chromosome translocation and one carried balanced translocation but was aneuploid. We have one left which is carrying the balanced translocation, so effectively “normal” and this will be going back into me within a couple of weeks. We were told we were very lucky to even get one normal with my hubbie’s condition, and yet all his sperm counts were always more than okay.
Ah keeping everything crossed for that one sweets. I did speak to my consultant about it and she said the embryologist saw such a vast improvement with donor eggs that it couldn’t be a sperm issue, but always worth questioning so thank you xxxx
Thinking of you. Hope you come away a little more positive xx
Thank you lovely, I hope you’re ok? Xxx
Hi there, I don’t blame you for feeling meh!!
Hope the appt goes ok 💕 xx
Thank you! Meh all round!! Xx
I'm really sorry you have to go through this again.i hope the appointment goes well and it reveals something new that you can work with. sending hugs to you. xx
Thank you lovely need to get the game face on, but it’s hard sometimes! You girls are always so wonderful though xxx
This journey is so tough - I don’t blame you feeling like that. I hope the appointment goes welll and makes you feel more positive. xoxo
Hope the appointment goes well and can possibly give you some hope to look forward to x
How did it go? X
Well the expected “we just don’t know!” Apparently it was a bloody good embryo, but the next one is the A* of embryos (sceptical of everything right now!!) and my consultant is treating it as multiple miscarriages so putting me on claxane (spelling?) steroids, antibiotics, aspirin and the usual evil progesterone injections!! Basically throw the bloody book at it and hope it sticks!!!! Xxx
Sounds like you’ll rattle! I have to take baby aspirin too! When will you start again? X
I know it’s bloody ridiculous!!! We are planing on this cycle so end of this month x
Fingers crossed! x
