EPU Update

So I had EPU yesterday.

10 eggs were collected, 6 were mature and only 3 fertilised!

Feeling a bit defeated and worried that we’ve lost so many already but trying to stay positive and remember that we’ve still got 3.

It’s going to be a long few days waiting for an update, I really hope that our embryos grow and develop so we have something left for transfer on Saturday!!!

Sorry to hear more didn’t make it, very upsetting for you. But pleased you got 3 good quality embryos left. Hopefully one of those will be your miracle baby xoxo

3 is still a good wee start! Totally understand you feeling disappointed, I think we all pin our hopes on lots of eggs but just keep thinking quality, not quantity!! Come on those little embryos, grow!!xx

Thanks love. Trying to stay positive. You’re right I think it’s very easy to forget quality over quantity in this game! Hope your doing well xx

The waiting is awful. I'd say try and keep busy but you'll have zero concentration for anything else over the next few days. So just look after yourself and maybe a bit of pampering - you deserve it!! Hope all 3 keep going xxx
