Having a little panic to myself... Had EC on weds and 6 eggs were collected, 4 were good enough for fertilisation and 3 have become embryos... I’m trying not to panic and hope that they all make it to Monday for my transfer 😳🤞🤞🤞 How do I calm myself down?

Hi, i also had EC wed. 16 eggs, 8 fertilised. Had the call this morning to say they were now ranging from 2-4 cell. They will call again in the morning then nothing until monday. I feel the same, worrying about what may happen over the weekend and struggling to focus on anything else. I am just trying to remind myself that we are lucky to have gotten this far and although i am probably going to focus on everything that can go wrong, the more likely outcome is that things will be fine, they are experts and i tell myself that they wont take unnecessary risks. The constant waiting throughout this process is definitely the worst part. Goodluck for Monday i have my fingers crossed for you xx

Good luck for you too! This is my 3rd and final round so I guess I’m just hoping and praying too much that all is well when in reality what’s for us won’t go by us.... I hope!! I’m back to work over the weekend so that should take my mind off things a little bit... 😬😂😂 fingers crossed for us both!! 💕 xx

Uurggghhh its so hard not to panic when we know all the hurdles that we have to get over....unlike at the very start! No tips really, just keep telling yourself that you have done everything you can. I remember the fear very well after having a few disasters with my own eggs. "Come on embies, grow, grow!!" Keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you!xx

Omg... I’m sure you don’t need to but I do find the drugs bloat us up! Funny thing is from when I did my first round to the 3rd I lost 1st 13lbs and the clinic were like oh your a little over the recommended bmi... I pointed out the weight lost and she said oh wow well done! And that was the end of that conversation 😂😂🤦🏻‍♀️ Hopefully it will go quick for you! Are you going abroad again? xx

Hmmm Im not massive but I defo do want to lose weight....getting to the stage I need a new wardrobe if I dont! Ha ha ha Yes we'll be heading across to Athens again, catch some rest and sun at the same time. We have 3 frosties left and think its likely that'll be the end of the road for us if we dont have success. Well done on you losing a stone, that's what I could do with!xx
