Cycle buddy wanted!

Hi just had egg collection on Monday hoping for all to be well for transfer on Saturday. I’m trying not to go mad obsessing over this stuff and have some semblance of other normal life continuing but it would be nice to speak/share sometimes. I live in Leeds and am 37yrs old with Leeds fertility clinic at Seacroft. Not that it matters where you are! Just thought I’d share. Baby dust to you all 🙏🏽💫☀️💝

Hi there, just to say I am in the same boat! Had my collection yesterday and today only 1 egg fertilised so I am also going mad! Hope that all goes well for you!!!! I am in Oxford!

Hi Idril ahh good luck my lovely! Well done! 😊 It’s a funny time between here and the egg transfer isn’t it? What’s making you feel mad? I found calling the clinic to speak to the embryologist and check in on progress was a bit reassuring and I also allowed myself some treats - turned out to be a Burger King a soft drink and bits of chocolate oh and a bit of shopping. So treat yourself I’d say! My number is 07969569202, feel free to give me a call! X

Hello ! Thank you! One more day to wait for you! They will call me now on Sunday to say if the transfer goes ahead or not.... How many fertilised eggs did you have ? Do you feel ready ? I try to do things so I don't think about it... Yesterday thankfully I was working because otherwise I am thinking too much ! Are you on WhatsApp? Xxx

Hi Idril! Yes I am on WhatsApp 😊 and yea one more day for me I’m due a call from the clinic to let me know time for provisional appointment tomorrow of et and embryologist also said they will call on Saturday morning to confirm wether blastocyst is all good to go ahead eeeeek so weird to think I may be disappointed or pregnant in a couple weeks. In a way I already feel I am - do you? And questioning if I’m ready!? After being desperate my whole life!?! I think the progesterone - which is cyclogest peasaries - are making me feel a bit moody/sensitive/emotional? And also a bit like a sea horse! I had eight follicles to start with and only one responded to stims. That 1 follicle was healthy and collected and there was thankfully an egg in there that fertilised well and has been apparantly developing well…I took mum to the coast yesterday and had week off work and next week after et off too. But I like to stay active! But I’m really tired at times! So just trying to do things with feet up or small run to the shops. What are you doing to keep busy?? Sorry looong post!!! Well done and keep up your doing amazing! 😊🙏🏽❤️Xxx

hello you two,I am so happy to read your posts - I just joined this forum this morning as I am going mad with the wait, and wanted to see if anyone else is feeling the same! I had EC on wednesday, and only 1 egg fertilised, possible transfer on monday if it's still developing. it's going to be a long weekend... but you both sound really positive and upbeat which is so helpful to hear! I'm also in oxfordshire so our embryos could be in the same lab!

Good luck to you both!

Hi flora and fauna, wow you guys are in the same neck of the woods that’s cool! Oh how are you doing at this point? Hope your ok. I’m just waiting and trying to live a bit while the suns out. Xxxx
