Hello lovely, it’s the follicles you can see on the scan and we all hope that each follicle contains an egg, though not always. Remember it only takes one good quality egg to make a baby. Keep doing what you are doing & fingers crossed those follicles continue to grow! It’s amazing the difference you’ll see in a few days. Good luck Xx

Hi Selene,

Depends whom you ask :)

for me 6 is a very good number. At my first cycle started with 4 one follicle did stop growing... and they retrieved 3 ...and in the end it was only 1 mature which was fertilized and got a nice embryo.

Second cycle started with 7 follicle... 3 retrieved.. 1 embryo again.

I am now within 2WW with this 2 beauties:)))
