2ww begins again... Third time lucky?

So 1dp5dt and already anxious and symptom spotting. Driving myself crazy. Despite getting a whopping 19 mature eggs only two made it to day 5. Gutted given that my OHs sperm is normal again (for now) but not uncommon for us. This is my third cycle.

For the first time we've been allowed to put 2 embryos back. A 3-4bb (but the embryologist was confident within just hours it'd be a 4aa - that we'll never know if it happened) and a '2' graded embryo. Think that was just a punt on his half. As this is our third and final cycle I'm bloody terrified. Pure mental torture is the 2ww. I need a miracle this time especially given my mmc last cycle. Back up plan is a day 6bb in the freezer alongside a hatching 5ba from cycle 1. I hate to say it but I'm not holding out much hope with the two I've got from this cycle. 😔

Any stories of hope welcomed xx

Welcome to the 2ww! Kinda similar situation to you - I had 11 down to 1, a mmc last year, just 1 in the freezer, and a 3bb put back this cycle, which they said I should be totally happy with! They thought a 3bb was good/great. My days waiver between sure this IS the cycle and absolute worry. You never know, it might your '2' graded embryo that makes it through! Or both! I have all the hope for this round for you my lovely. xxx

It's hell. How many dpt are you? I'm now 2dp5dt and apart from the cramping after transfer, bruising from injections and the major bloating from the progesterone, I feel nothing. Except I didn't last cycle either when j got my bfp apart from slightly sore boobs and mild cramping at 5dp5dt. In fact, I had been convinced it had failed again. Whens your otd? Mines not til 31st x

I am 4dp5dt (transferred Monday). I have a sore throat.... not sure what to think of that. Last time I did symptom spotting and was 100% sure I was pregnant, so don't want to go through that again! OTD is 27th/28th. Nurse wrote 27th, but said 12 days, so I'm going with 27th, but also considering it as potentially one day early when I test. x

Hi Jessy,

This is my first time going through all this. 5dp5dt. Had 4 retrieved and only 1 fertilised. Over here in Australia apparently they don't grade them unless it's just the place I went to. But mine was at the Morula stage and not a blastocyst so just so much negative news it's so hard to be positive. I mean we did get one, I'd be broken going through all those injections and get none. These 5 days have just felt so long. I've been really anxious and overthinking it all. Really struggling because no one seems to know how to support me and its all just the same "its going to be OK" but I just feel like it's not and just don't feel like it's worked this time. With All the hormones on board making it so much harder.

🤞🤞🤞

Awww fab news Jessy! Best of luck for the 2ww, hope you get a lovely surprise!!xx

I had a 54aa blast put back in and at 6 weeks I got a heartbeat! I'm currently 7 wks 1 day pregnant I really do think this will work for you just make sure you eat pineapple and the core for 5 days and get antioxidants down you.. I believe this contributed in me getting this far.. I'm not going to wish you luck because 54aa is top quality embryo 🥰🥰🥰

Congrats!

I had a 3-4bb (progressing to 4aa) put in and a 2. However I've had a 4ab previously fail so very nervous x

But this is progressing to 54aa when I had my transfer the embryologist said 54aa is a top quality embryo. It was my very first try and the embryologist was very confident and guess what he wasn't confident for no reason 🙂so my point is you got a 54aa progressing this will for sure work 🥰

hi bmm651, i noticed you've asked a few times re. 4aa gender - the grade of the embryo doesn't determine the gender so i'm not sure how helpful it would be to know what other people's outcomes were. best of luck!
