Can't believe I'm at this stage again! Have my egg collection tomoro, very anxious and hopeful that we get some eggs. It's our 2nd cycle. Our 1st failed in August, and we didn't get any embryos to freeze so have had to go through the whole long protocol again. Less anxious than last time, but as this is our last cycle I truly hope it works!!! They've put me on a different stimulation drug this time, so we shall see if that has helped. We started trying for a baby 6 years ago this month, and had an early miscarriage 5 years ago in March. This is my last chance at becoming a biological mum. In a way that feels so sad, but on another I will then know it's time to call it a day and look at adoption. I just want my own family now. Hope all of you are looking after yourselves! Baby dust to us all!!!! Fingers crossed for a good result tomorrow, wish me luck!!! X x x

Best of luck tomorrow. First egg collection for me tomorrow so a bit scared. On the plus side, I decided to bake today to take my mind off things so have lemon meringue pie for when I get home 😂
Good luck for you too. Make sure to wear something comfy for coming home, and take it easy when you get home and rest. I've made food for tomoro night today so I haven't got to cook tomorrow night. Let's hope we both get a good amount of eggs! X
Best of luck for tomorrow! Sounds like me a few months ago, I had my 2nd ICSI cycle and egg collection....my first round we had 15 eggs 14 mature and 11 fertilise..I was ecstatic thinking I'll have a few for the freezer..went in for transfer day 5 to be told we had 1 average 4BB to transfer and nothing to freeze...I was devastated. 2nd round I was so worried as that was our last round too my last chance at being a mum so was alot riding on it...I had it in my head my eggs were just crap! (I'm 38) anyways they got 14 eggs, 11 mature and 8 fertilize..went in for transfer to be told only 1 blast 3ba none to freeze but they were watching a few till day 6 and i was like crap again?! Anyways called me next day and 2 embies made it to freeze! Was over the moon! So just goes to show each cycle can be so different we had less fertilise only 8 but got 3 good blasts from it! So dont even worry bout your first cycle this one could be so different! I wish you all the luck and hope they get lots of nice eggs and good fertilization! Keep us updated 🤞🤞🐣🐣 xxx
Thanks for that, glad it went better 2nd time! We had 14 eggs last time, 6 fertilised, only 1 poor quality embryo to put back on day 5. Just hope we get some good news today x Good luck with your journey x
Yes so your 2nd will hopefully be much better! Hope everything goes well today, it's so much easier 2nd time round as you know what your in for 😊 Yes please keep us updated ill be thinking of you 🐣🐣🐣xxx and thank you 😘
Loads of luck for today! Sounds like you deserve it to be your time xx
Good luck!!! I had fail first ivf cycle just couple days ago. 3 eggs on retrieval day but none was matured to be fertilized. Going to start my 2nd cycle very soon (end of January) as I have low AMH.
Well today didn't go great. Collection was more painful than last time and remember more. They only managed to get 4 eggs, and Dr said my oestrogen levels had been lower this time. Just hope we get some good news tomoro! X
I'm sorry to read that it was painful for you! Try to remember that you only need one - just one little miracle. Fingers crossed for the news tomorrow. Thanks for the update xxx
