Transfer day

[ttcemmie]

Really feeling for all the ladies who are getting cycles cancelled due to coronavirus. Absolutely awful and my heart goes out because it must be devastating. My clinic also looked on the verge of shutting down. I give it another week or so. My dad said to me today (after transfer) that he was worried our transfer might not go ahead, which was lovely of him. And interesting - I don't think I was worrying about that 2 weeks ago!

ANYWAY from my 11 eggs and 7 fertilised, I somehow only got 1 (3BB grade) that was good enough to transfer today? I was absolutely shocked. I was hoping for 4 blastocysts, realistically thinking 3, and 2 worst worst case scenario (got 2 blastocysts on both last 2 cycles with only 6 eggs).... so 1 was not expected. Oh well. Made it to transfer, which is the main thing. And I SUPER can't complain with everything else going on. I am very very happy I have my little one safe on board with me today. They will update me on the other ones tomorrow, but not holding out much hope. But MAYBE only one has made it because this is the ONE! Our little Neo (Matrix Neo - we're not calling it Neo).

So glad you made it to transfer Emmie 😊 A mission in itself!

I can see why you were a bit shocked only getting one blastocyst with your past history but as we all know it only takes one and you have the best one back where it belongs 😘 Wishing you all the best for the 2ww xxxx

[ttcemmie in reply to Keepingfaith85]

Thanks. I think about my emotions of having only 1 compared to say 2, and then I think about my emotions of having NONE compared to 1, and it is helping me to put it in perspective and I am so so grateful. In a positive place, just wasn't expecting it. xxxx

[Keepingfaith85 in reply to ttcemmie]

Hopefully tomorrow will bring some nice news too x

[Chel91]

Well done on getting through your transfer! Making it to the transfer is a rollercoaster in itself, so try to enjoy the success!! 🤗 Sorry you didn't get as many as you wanted today, but crossing my fingers for more good news tomorrow! I'm not an expert on grading, but sounds like the one you had transferred has a good shot🤞🙏 xxxxxx

[ttcemmie in reply to Chel91]

Thanks Chel! Happy we got to transfer! Especially with everything going on atm! Our nurse heavily hinted they might close in a week or so, soooooo I'm feeling very lucky and grateful right now. x

[Tiddly1984]

You must be so relieved to have even that one on board. Fingers tightly crossed for you....x

[ttcemmie in reply to Tiddly1984]

Yup yup! Thanks. x

[Cinderella5]

Oh my love! Delighted that you made it!! I'm so sorry you only have the one but please let this little one settle in!!🙏🏻🙏🏻 Come on Neo!!💕💕xx

[ttcemmie in reply to Cinderella5]

Thanks Cinders!

I’m so glad you made it to transfer with all this madness, and given how so many clinics are shutting down 🙈

By the way, my little lobster was a 3BB ❤️🤞🏻🍀🤞🏻🍀🤞🏻🍀🤞🏻🍀🤞🏻🍀🤞🏻So it CAN DEFINITELY HAPPEN! And I’m keeping all my fingers and toes crossed for you Hun! Xxxx 💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋

[ttcemmie in reply to Hidden]

So happy our clinic was continuing this cycle up to transfer. Our nurse said they probably won't start with the next round (everyone's cycles are synced up). I am not leaving the house until I either get a negative test (by which time none of us will be allowed to leave the house anyway) or until this whole coronavirus thing is over (months away!!). I'm keeping my little bubba safe as houses. My house. 😊😊😊

[Hidden in reply to ttcemmie]

Awww so sweet and absolutely right! ❤️

[Corchi]

[ttcemmie in reply to Corchi]

[Luna_79]

Oooh so happy you have your embaby safely onboard - just in time looking at the news - I’m keeping absolutely everything crossed for you xxxxxxx

[ttcemmie in reply to Luna_79]

Just in time! Yes! Thank goodness. Thanks. x

[Kiedy84]

I know how you feel, we lost 6 embabies between day 3 and 5 only one made it...

I am breastfeeding him as I type this message. Never loose hope. Hope this is your time 🤞💕 xx

[louisajane80 in reply to Kiedy84]

Amazing kiedy! Hope that gives emmie some hope 🤞

[ttcemmie in reply to Kiedy84]

Thanks Kiedy, that's great to hear! I don't want 11 or even 7 babies, so hopefully this is the one and he pulls through. xxx

[Shirazlover2013]

So good to hear you made it to transfer and that it wasn’t cancelled!! Good luck, may little Neo be a sticky one xx

[ttcemmie in reply to Shirazlover2013]

Thanks. Soo happy we made it to transfer! Come on Neo! x

Congratulations on the transfer and all the luck over the 2ww!! Lots of relaxation in order for you. Keep us all posted on how you go 😊 xx

Thanks. Will do!

[Kyell2]

Great news that your transfer went ahead.

It does only take the one, so I hope it’s snuggling in right now 🤞🤞 x

[ttcemmie in reply to Kyell2]

Thanks!

[amandac84]

Wishing you lots of luck and fingers crossed xx

[ttcemmie in reply to amandac84]

Thank you!

[JoP32]

Come on little one, get comfy & settle in for the long run!!!

You’ve got this Emmie! Your little fighter is exactly where it’s supposed to be!

I’ll be keeping everything very firmly crossed for you and I hope the 2ww passes as quickly (?!) as possible🙏💕🤞🏻🍀 xxx

[ttcemmie in reply to JoP32]

Thanks. Do you think there's anything I can do to make it happier in there? 2ww is fine so far (it's been one day! lol).

[JoP32 in reply to ttcemmie]

Ha ha! I’m the same - the first 2 days I’m like ‘this is totally fine, I’m going to remain calm throughout this 2ww’. Then by day 3 I’m googling like a crazy woman and by day 6 I am a woman possessed, peeing on sticks left right & centre!! 😂😂😂

Aw, no tips I’m afraid lovely, except the usual - no heavy exercise etc. I did read though that beetroot is supposed to be good for increasing Oxygen to the uterus and I drank beetroot shots on my second transfer & got a BFP... probably nothing to do with the beetroot but It’s another portion of veg for the day so it can’t hurt & every little helps (warning though, it is revolting! 🤢😂)

I have a feeling though that it is very happy in there already. I have a good feeling about this one for you 😘 xx

[KiboXX in reply to JoP32]

Your first paragraph is literally the perfect description of me during the 2ww 🙈😂

Good luck girls! Try and stay sane xx

[ttcemmie in reply to JoP32]

Day 2: already thinking about googling!

[JoP32 in reply to ttcemmie]

Ha ha!!

[Hidden]

Bit late to this lovely but wanted to say masses and masses and masses of luck, hope you manage to keep sane and hope you get your BFP! xx

[Hidden]

That is great! Hope you get your BFP this time! X
