Frozen egg and frozen sperm mixing

Has anyone gone through the mixing process with both frozen? We are mixing tomorrow and I’ve been so disappointed and frustrated with the nurses and lab technicians as I’ve had to micromanage the entire process. Also, has anyone experienced horrible bedside and very insensitive manner?? So stressful!

Asking for your positive thoughts ✨ and lady support 💕 for what is meant to be. We find out how many of my eggs survive the thaw and how sperm thaws Wednesday and then how many fertilize on Thursday which are our first hurdles.

Thanks all for your support when we all need it. What an incredible network we are of women!!! 😘

Hi Gingerluv. Can;t excuse poor bedside manner, I'm afraid. I would be complaining to the unit manager. Hoping that your eggs accept the sperm OK. Was there any provision for ICSI if not? Hope you get some good results. Diane

Yes, we were on the ICIS plan. Thank you!!

I only have experience of frozen sperm (which thawed fine and apparently it normally does) but wanted to wish you good luck. I would definitely have a word with someone at your clinic if you don't feel like you are being supported enough.. this is a stressful enough process as it is without having to be the project manager too. Lots of luck xx
