Day 3 update - non-exsistent

[Militarywife7]

On day 1 I got told to expect a call on day 3 regarding grading and further progress on our embryos. Today a nurse called me to book me in for a transfer on Monday.

I asked the nurse when I would be getting my update on my embryos? She said it should be shortly as they have been busy. That was 4 hours ago, I’ve been calling non stop and emailing and can’t get through as they are closed.

I’m currently sat in tears and quite frankly don’t need to stress. Has this happened to anybody else?

I’m not sure how they can book me on Monday without telling me how many embryos made it past day 1 since the last update? I believe they are also closed tomorrow - this weekend is going to be absolute hell on earth! 😫

Oh love, that’s so frustrating!

Have you heard back yet? I had something similar with my beta results. Went in first thing for bloods and was told I’d get a call back at mid day. I couldn’t get through and didn’t hear from them until the following afternoon. I was an absolute state by then.

So hope you hear soon, no point in telling you to keep your mind off it because that’ll be plain impossible! Xx

I know, I’ve been waiting with my phone glued to me since 8am 😣

No they never got back to me which has made me quite angry. That’s horrible, like we need the stress. I hate nothing more than inefficiency 😤

Thank you so much, my guess is I will find out on Monday at this rate. I’m just about to watch a chic flick to take my mind off it for awhile x

[Solly-44 in reply to Militarywife7]

Yep, do it!

I reckon as the others have said they must be positive about the results as they’ve booked you in for Monday but it’s still so frustrating.

Wishing you all the luck xx

I tracked them down today and found out I had 12 top grades on day 2, so will see what happens tomorrow 🙈 thanks for the well wishes 😘❤️ X

[Solly-44 in reply to Militarywife7]

Oh wow, brilliant news! You must be so relieved. Next stop Monday then! Xx

[Militarywife7 in reply to Solly-44]

Yeah it’s a big relief 😅 I’m definitely in a better mood today - felt sorry for hubby yesterday 🤣 fet here I come 🏃‍♀️ x

[Orla9298]

Please try to reassure yourself - if they called on day 3 to book you in for day 5, it must be that they are very confident you’ll have good embies for Monday! Honestly! They would have got you in today if it looked like you only had one or two in the running as they would have probably popped them in today xxx ♥️

[Militarywife7 in reply to Orla9298]

Thank you for the advice it’s helped, as you know most of the info is guess work on the first round and I haven’t been through this before so I’m driving myself mad trying to guess stuff 🙈 I’m hoping I get a decent amount as I would be over the moon to get some frozen as I’m sure most of us would 🤞x

[Orla9298 in reply to Militarywife7]

Ivf is just a rollercoaster, in my first two rounds I even rang them on day 2 for an update! There must be good news for you, I just know it xx

[Militarywife7 in reply to Orla9298]

Hi Orla, managed to track them down, I had 12 top grades on day 2 so hoping for a decent number tomorrow but will still be a partial surprise I guess. Oh god I know, thank god us ladies have each other for support and advice ❤️❤️❤️ X

[Lots8788]

Ah hun sorry to hear that. Hopefully as Orla says the fact that they've booked you in for Monday sounds like it's good news. Big hugs to you xx

[Militarywife7 in reply to Lots8788]

Thank you - I’ll just put it down to another crazy part of the process and journey. I guess I’m in for a surprise on Monday 🙈 x

[Lots8788 in reply to Militarywife7]

have everything crossed for you xx

[Militarywife7 in reply to Lots8788]

Thank you ❤️❤️❤️

It's very frustrating. I had something similar, although mine was a freeze all cycle. No updates between fertilization and day 5. I was quite stressed out until I remembered my Dr telling me the plan was to freeze them but if they didn't look like they'd make it to day 5 the plan would change. No news is good news in these circumstances, but the waiting is hard. Best of luck with your transfer on Monday xxx

[Militarywife7 in reply to MissSaoPaulo]

It’s so frustrating when the clinic don’t give updates, as it manages your expectations in advance. They actually answered today randomly after many calls and gave some crap story - but at least I managed to find out. I had 12 top grade embryos on day 2, as they don’t check day 3 or 4 apparently despite telling me otherwise 🙈 x

[MissSaoPaulo in reply to Militarywife7]

Sounds like they're going really well, that's great. Annoying that you had to chase so much to get that info but what a great result

[Militarywife7 in reply to MissSaoPaulo]

Hopefully all goes well today, and I have a good amount 😬🤞 x

[Klndmr]

Hey hun. It is very frustrating I would get mad as well omg. After all the stress you need to put up with and this on top can make you go crazy. But like the others say they booked you in for transfer so most probably your embabies are doing well!

You have all my fingers crossed for you for Monday! Sending lots of hugs hun 😍🤗🤗🤗🤗🤞🤞🤞🤞❤❤❤❤❤❤

[Militarywife7 in reply to Klndmr]

Hi sweetheart, I know I was in the worst mood yesterday 😔 I must have called 40 times like a maniac 🤣

I managed to get hold of them today and they made up a rubbish story about how they don’t check day 3 or 4 despite telling me otherwise. I had 12 top grade embryos on day 2 🤷‍♀️

The embryologist said we should at least have two really good ones from these ones which made no sense. I guess I will find it more tomorrow.

Thanks for the well wishes lovely lady 😘❤️ X

[Klndmr in reply to Militarywife7]

Did they really say that?? You need to have a good go on them tomorrow 🙈 but make sure if before the transfer, after the transfer just relax and enjoy life 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞

[Militarywife7 in reply to Klndmr]

Yep they have been really good up until the point 🙈 fet is this morning 😱 can’t believe I’m finally here. Good luck with your blood test today too ❤️ X

[Klndmr in reply to Militarywife7]

Best of luck! And I hope you have many frosties too 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤗🤗🤗🤗😍😍😍😍

[Drives]

How frustrating for you 😔 as others have said - if they've booked you in for a 5 day transfer they must be sure you've got some doing really well 🤞

Hope you manage to have a bit of a relax today in preparation. Sending lots of positive vibes x x x

[Militarywife7 in reply to Drives]

Thank you so much, I managed to track them down today and got a rubbish excuse. I had 12 embryos on day 2, so still a bit of a surprise to see what I have left tomorrow. But overall feeling better now 🙈 thanks for the well wishes x

[Drives in reply to Militarywife7]

Wishing you all the very best for today x x x

Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️ X
