How many cycles before you were blessed with a baby?

Seems to be a real mixed bag on here of what number of cycle people are on... Im currently waiting to start my first ICSI (if all goes well with sperm retrieval)

And was curious as to how many cycles it took each of us before we had a little baby.. or prehaps what cycle were currently on and still waiting for a miracle?

TIA x

Hi I was extremely lucky for it to work on my second round of icsi . I have a 10 week old baby now . I wish and pray for you to get success on this round . Keep the hope as I felt like it would never work. I felt a tiny bit more relaxed on the second round . A lovely lady at my clinic said after the embryo was implanted to go home and watch your most favourite and funny tv programme or film and try and laugh as much as possible . Which I did ! Don’t know if that helped . Good luck to you xxx

That is a great idea! I heard that laughing alot is really good for implantation. That's exactly what I'm going to do get a good funny film or 3 ready for transfer day and try and laugh as much as I can! 😂🤣🤣😘😘😘

I’ve done two fresh cycles and three frozen, but no baby yet. Although we did have two bfps we lost them. I since found out I have a blood clotting disorder. I hope you get your wish quickly xx

I am sorry for this darling girl. You need heparin injections every day on your next pregnancy and monthly checkups with the haematologist to check the ddmers abd you will be alright. Keeping my fibgers crossed for you xx

Thank you. Yes I’ve been injecting blood thinners on my last two transfers but sadly they were bfns. Hopefully we’ll get there.. 🤞🏻 xx

Were the eggs a problem?

Mantaray75 in reply to monicacozma

We think so. I’m 42 so its the most likely and we have unexplained infertility.

I've had 3 cycles 2 with my own eggs and then one with donor eggs now 37 weeks pregnant. Double transfer each time having a singleton hopefully in the next 2 to 3 weeks. Good luck x

aww congratulations!! and thank you xo

I was extremely lucky to fall pregnant on my first round where they did both IVF and ICSI. The embryo used was from the ICSI batch and I'm now 26 weeks. We did have 3 rounds of unmedicated IUI last year which didn't work.

Good luck with your cycle. I hope it all goes well for you xx
