Feeling pretty low...

14 Replies

After a pretty traumatic egg collection yesterday I got the phone call this morning with the news that only 1 of 7 has fertilised. I'm so devastated.

Appreciate that 1 is better than none but feels like it's not going to happen. Transfer booked for tomorrow. Hopefully our little one lasts till tomorrow 🤞xx

So sorry to hear this. I had similar issues, with only ever having a max of 4 follicles, max 3 eggs collected and none of them making it past day 3 normal. However, you only need one and maybe that one that fertilised is the golden egg. Its not over until its over! All the best for tomorrow.

So sorry to hear this - I had this a year ago tomorrow. Collected 18 eggs and only 1 fertilIsed and that was abnormal. Hold onto the fact that you only need 1 hun, as hard as I know that is. Fingers crossed all goes well tomorrow xx

Thank you!xx

Better results would have been more reassuring, so sorry love but it takes one and the available one is definitely a fighter and hopefully it will pull through.

Keeping my fingers crossed for you, 🤞🏾💞

I know many others have already said it but it really does only take one. I know it’s gutting when you start well and get a big drop off but it’s not over! Sending you a big hug and lots of luck for a smooth transfer tomorrow xx

It only takes one. The cycle of ivf that got me pregnant had only one fertilized and i got a bfp . Stay positive and all u really need is one

I am in a similar position so can totally empathise how much it sucks! We had 12 eggs, 1 fertilised. Currently 8dp2dt and fingers crossed. Everyone says it only takes one but it's so hard to stay positive. Hope our transfer goes well tomorrow and fingers crossed our embryos are *the one*
