This morning I have seen my first ever positive pregnancy test. It feels so surreal I can’t believe it has finally happened. This is after I was convinced that this round was going to fail. When I woke up from egg collection to be told that they only got 2 eggs I broke down and cried so much in the clinic that my contact lenses fell out! 😭When only one egg fertilised normally I was even more upset. On day 3 the embryologist called to say it was looking average and she couldn’t say if it would make it to day 5 💔 I was so stressed about going through the whole IVF round, with all the injections and constant worry, for it to be for nothing. So I asked if I could be moved to a day 3 transfer and got my arse to the clinic ASAP. I was so negative that transfer day. I just didn’t have it in me to be positive. I was pretty much broken.
I know it is very early days and I have a long road ahead of me but I am so happy to know I can get pregnant with the help of IVF. I am so happy to finally reach this stage 🙏🏻
Thank you to everyone on here who has supported me through this tough journey. I wish you all the best on your own journeys ❤️

Congratulations!! sending lots of positive vibes and strength to your wee egg
Massive congratulations lovely. 💐💐💐You are pregnant!!! You are doing everything right so be kind to yourself and enjoy every minute. No one know what tomorrow brings but today is a good day. 🙌
Thank you The embryologist said it was 7 cells. It was good for fragmentation but down on regularity. So overall graded average. She said by the time we had the transfer in the afternoon it had grown some more and was a few more cells but still graded average.
Yay. Firstly congratulations!!!!! I can completely relate to u. I had a bad round where only 1 fertilised out of 16 eggs collected. I remember sobbing uncontrollably after that phone call....and saying that it was a waste of time and effort. However I had a day 2 transfer with that 1 fertilised egg and it's now my 20month old bundle of chaos. So it can happen absolutely and I'm so pleased it's happened to u too. It really only does take 1. I think we get too focused on numbers and stats when every embryo has a chance.best wishes for the rest of your pregnancy. Xxx
Ahhhh, thank you so much for sharing your positive story. It really gives me hope that this one will work out! They do say it just takes one egg but it is so hard when you are disappointed throughout this process with bad news. thank you
Aww congratulations Jane and sending lots of positive thoughts for your pregnancy 💜 I have been following your posts as I’m similar age with low AMH / AFC and due to start our IVF next month so it’s lovely to hear a success story and the confidence it does only take 1 egg. Wishing you all the best xx
Thank you I wish you all the best for your first IVF cycle. It is so tough going into this with low AMH/AFC when you hear of others getting 20+ follicles. But there are so many ladies out there with low AMH who have had success with IVF and taken babies home. Hopefully we will too! I'll be looking forward to seeing how you get on! xx
The grade of the embryo is more important for the chances of implantation. Once it implants, the chances of live birth are pretty similar, so that’s encouraging!
Good call on doing a day 3 in your case. And good luck🙏🏻
