BFN 😔 & getting ready for donation

[Pigi]

Hi. There is not much to say...obviously, in my case insomnia and sweating in the night was not a good sign. In previous cycle it was also the same. Till some point, sore boobs, bloated tummy, fatigue, feeling sleepy until 6-7dpt...and all of a sudden all symptoms gone, and getting heavy difficulties sleeping. For me it was not a good sign. Sorry if this is too much info...

This was our 3rd cycle and previously we had 2 natural pregnancies (one premature birth and one MC two years ago). Now I have to plan donation, since Im 42 and have high fsh (17) and very low amh (0,1).

May I kindly ask for some suggestions for clinics in EU? (for donations after 40) ...In dm of course...or some success stories...I still have hope.

So sorry this journey is so hard xx

I’m 43 I had 3 failed cycles with my own eggs and I have just completed a cycle with a clinic in Alicante with a donor egg, I’m currently in my 2ww, I was always so worried about going abroad but they have been fantastic, communication has been through email the whole way through, I think it would of been different if we didn’t have a global pandemic, husband went over during our November lockdown to give his sample and we both went over last week has been very stressful but I’m feeling very confident it has worked as today is day 7 and my past attempts I have been bleeding by this stage and at the moment every is going well, the clinic is ur Vistahermosa and if you are on Facebook they do have a Facebook page, good luck hope this helps xxx

Hi vics, fingers crossed for your 2ww xxI'm trying to get to Spain for transfer soon but struggling because of the Spanish restrictions. Did you travel from the UK? X

[Vics77 in reply to AdeleMac]

Hi yes we had a letter from our clinic to say we were going for urgent medical treatment when we arrived at check in desk the woman said we couldn’t travel but I showed her the letter and she emailed it to someone in Spain and then rang the Spanish immigration luckily they allowed us to travel but I really thought they wouldn’t allow us, we had a covid test done before we traveled and did all the Spanish forms, when we got to Spain the Spanish immigration had our details and we had another covid test at the clinic to let us return absolutely no problems getting home, I think we did it at the right time as things are changing all the time xxx

Thank you so much. This brings me hope!

Good luck dear Vics!🍀 Thank you so much for recommendations and for sharing your story. This means so much to me. Fingers crossed for you! I think it will be success this time, because we really can feel when something is wrong. If it is different than last time, and you are not bleeding, this sounds good and you should feel confident! 💪Stay strong and positive! Xx

I am so sorryPigi. Don’t give up!! No advice for EU clinics but just wanted to send some love as I had a BFN yesterday too 😢 xx

Hi🧡 You are not alone...this is so hard. I feel exhausted. I isolated myself from friends. Partly due to covid...but partly because I just felt weak these days and I feel everybody expects some good news from me, which I dont have...😔 so every time if someone mentions, my mood goes down...l will really try to change that...But...to be honest, it is the hardest... I hope for the donation to bring us miracle. Take care of yourself, try to think of this as a battle you fight with all of us on your side and that you are not alone🙏❣️

It is sooo hard to remain positive but give yourself a few days to process what has happened and then make a plan. Xx
