The embryologist just called. They have managed to freeze 2 more.

-5AA.

-5BB.

Feeling very grateful, my wife has worked so hard to improve her egg quality and it's all paid off ๐Ÿฅฐ

We now have 7 frozen. Can't wait to start our process again and hopefully have some positive news this year โค๏ธ

Wow those numbers are amazing congratulations. I hope this is the time for you. I just wondered what has your wife done to improve her egg quality?xx

I am hoping so, we have had 3 failed, 2 retrievals. I've had lots of answers from immunology/era test. So praying our time will come soon๐Ÿคž

My wife took the below supplements.

(She made all these changes 4 months before her egg retrieval)

-400mg ubiquinol

-vitamin d

-folic acid

-iron

-omega 3

-vitamin c

-vitamin e

-She cut out alcohol for 4 months

-She cut out caffine completely

-eating 3/4 Brazil nuts daily

-Stopped drinking any fizzy drinks and just stuck to drinking water (atleast 3ltrs per day)

- She was on a Mediterranean diet, and eat fish atleast 2/3 times per week, cut down on carbs, eating lots of brown rice /whole grains

-Cut out sugary foods, cakes, chocolate etc

-Cut out high intensity exercise but ensuring she was still keeping active, walking around 2/3 miles per day.

-Also doing caster oil packs around 2/3 times per week

For her previous egg collection, she didn't make any of the above changes and the changes have definitely helped ๐Ÿ˜Š x

Incredible. Thank you so much for the detailed reply itโ€™s good to know when these changes make a noticeable difference. Im too late for supplements and things to make a difference for my first round (Iโ€™m very aware it will likely not work first time so Iโ€™m planning ahead) although I have cut out caffeine and alcohol for a few months. Iโ€™ve cut down on sugar massively (havenโ€™t managed to cut it out altogether) but I think I will up my fish intake other than that I think my diets good Iโ€™ve only been on pregnacare so Iโ€™m conscious I havenโ€™t done enough with supplements but the go ahead was given with only about 5 weeks notice, previous to that we didnโ€™t think weโ€™d even have a chance due to my husbands sperm. Sorry rambling on, Iโ€™ll be following your โ€˜journeyโ€™ (hate that word) sending lots of luck xx

It definitely seems like you all doing all the right things, I really hope everything goes well for your retrieval ๐Ÿ˜Š

Aww thank you. I won't be having a transfer until July time as I'm hoping to bring my thyroid levels down as they are slightly high at the moment

Please keep me posted on how things are going for you. I'll be keeping everything crossed ๐Ÿคžxx
