Hi ladies,
I’m home from EC this morning. We have 7 eggs in Lab hoping to fertilise overnight. OH sperm sample was best one yet and a lot higher than before. Doctors all sound positive!
Feeling very very sick from anaesthetic hoping it will wear off soon. Any tips on how to stay relaxed and calm over be coming days as I know I’m a big worrier!
Xxx
Well done. No tips other than just take it one step at a time and breathe lol. Good luck! xx
Wishing you lots of luck for good news tomorrow, lots of rest and water tonight xx
Hi Jade. I’m also Jade and back from collection today too! Good luck.🍀
No tips unfortunately, I found those updates pretty stressful! Wishing you loads of luck!xx
Thank you x I no I’m already anxious waiting for the first one tomorrow! X
Just eat small meals do not over do it!! I did and then ended up vomiting over night.
No tips for you but wanted to wish you lots of luck. Xx
Hey Jade, well done on your egg collection and best of luck that you have good news from the clinic tomorrow.
Waiting for updates from the lab is such a worrying time. Hope you manage to get some sleep tonight and the nausea passes soon xx
That’s great news- good amount of eggs.hope fertilize and turn into embryos 😍 good luck xoxo
Thank you 🤞🏼 xxx
Good luck for today. My clinic forgot to ring us the next morning thinking they had already called us so we were a mess by the afternoon when I called them to find out what was happening. If they don’t call you call them just in case. Waiting for the daily call was nerve racking. We had four fertilise and they all made it to day five although one was always a day behind. Remember it only takes one! Xx
Thank you , I’m awake nice and early but they did say they may not call til lunchtime but hoping for a nice early call 🤞🏼 xxx
Good luck Jade. Hope they're doing well xx
That's great news, have you had your call yet? fingers crossed ! xxx
Yes all 7 fertilised xx
that's an amazing result! congratulations, are you having a fresh transfer or FET? xxx
We were going to have PGS testing but we are trying to opt for a fresh cycle as the Lab feel we are young and should not need to worry about Pgs so hopefully we will transfer one fresh embryo Tuesday xxx
Ah fair enough, I guess that does make sense really, its nice that you get a fresh transfer! Hopefully you'll get a few nice frostie's for the freezer too! xxx
Hi jade1003. Just wishing you huge success with embryo development and transfer when it is done. Make surer you rest when you can, and drink plenty of water. Diane
Thank you Diane x just so pleased the all fertilised xxx
Indeed! xx
So pleased for you, all the best for Tuesday. I found the transfer an amazing experience, they were so good at my clinic xx
Thank you, do you feel anything during transfer ? Xx
You have to have a medium full bladder and there is a tiny bit of uncomfortableness especially when she was scanning near my bladder but no pain or anything. Was amazing seeing the blastocyst embryo on the screen and then it being put in and they check it has definitely gone in. The doctor was amazing. She took her time made sure I was comfortable even warmed up the speculum and checked it wasn’t too uncomfortable for me. I think it all helped me stay relaxed. We had a laugh about my husband calling the best two embryos Bert and Ernie and the embryologist wrote Bertie on the envelope with the photo of the blastocyst she chose. We still call baby Bertie but don’t think that will be their actual name. Xx
This has reassured me thank you! X that’s made me laugh! Maybe Bertie for a middle name haha! Thank you for your advice hope you are well xx
