Donor FET ..... here we come!

Well ladies & gents,

I officially started the meds yesterday.....bloody hell its a big protocol with meds morning, afternoon and evening. Overwhelming to say the least. Transfer booked for Sept 19th & we sorted flights last night.

I’m excited & terrified all at the same time. I’m trying so hard to remain positive but those negative thoughts creep in frequently every day. What if it doesn’t work, what if I can’t hold a pregnancy? I’m meditating daily, trying so hard to remain positive & tell myself we’ll cross that bridge if we get to it (fingers crossed we don’t). Any tips on how to control those thoughts?

I’ve scans and bloods booked for 5th & 12th to track the endometrium thickness. I’m also doing acupuncture again, I really enjoy it & it helps calm my mind. My acupuncturist is amazing, she is so positive. She is an amazing support.

20 days and counting ...... wish us luck!

Best of luck to all you amazing couples on your journeys this month too!

Xx

Patience is not my strong point either. The waiting is so challenging. Delighted to hear you have 3 embryos left, best of luck. I’ll keep an eye out for updates Xx

Hey Jengi, best of luck!!! It’s a lot to take in I know but chances with DE are much higher ;) how many frozen eggs have you got available? Are you with NHS or a private clinic?

Finger crossed for you hun xx 🌺

Thanks. We had 2 rounds of IVF/ICSI on the NHS. Now with a private clinic in Greece. We have 6 embryos (all excellent 5 day blastocysts) in the freezer there. I read that you’ve had success with DE, congrats! Xx
