Natural FET this month

I’m back!

Quick reminder, I have 2 PN embryos frozen (frozen on day one !)

I have no idea if they’ll be good enough quality to transfer or let alone survive the thaw . Therefore I have chosen natural frozen cycle. Seemed too much of gamble , taking all the meds with a day 1 embryo, given my history of not much luck 🙈

I’m completely new to frozen transfer, I’ve learned so much on here from you lovely ladies, thank you. I wasn’t going to be given a trigger but after reading most on here have I enquired about it yesterday at my first scan . My consultant ordered one for me . But if I hadn’t asked they wouldn’t have mentioned it? I do not understand this. Is it normal to have trigger or not?

Anyways I had my scan yesterday (day 9) . All was fine, I go back on Monday (day 13) .

Are there any tips or things I can be doing? I guess I start ovulation testing from today?

Anybody else doing a natural frozen same time as me?

Thank you ❤️

Hi Rol. Just wanted to wish you well with your natural FET. Even an early frozen embryo can do well once back inside you where he/she belongs. Worth having the trigger shot if your Fallopian tubes are OK, shame to waste tje chance of an egg/ Just eat sensibly and go for walks and try and keep busy. All the best. Diane

Hi Rol. You may have read before when I said about early day transfers when I first started on the fertility business, as we didn't have the expertise to grow embryos on to Day 5 etc. Hopefully your Day 1 will carry on dividing oncee back inside you where he/she belongs. Good luck! Diane

So they'll thaw it Tuesday morning, starting a couple of hours before transfer time. Hoping it makes it 🙏 xx

I didn’t have a trigger with my natural FET - I think it just depends if you’re doing totally natural or modified natural. Good luck!! 🤞🤞 xx

Hi xx I was meant to do totally natural and I might still, my clinic close on Sundays so it’s incase my ovulation day is off . So it’s incase, I think. Tbh I’m completely clueless re: frozen procedure. Doesn’t feel real without the million injections. Thanks xx

Ahhhh ok! 😊 my clinic still do things on Sundays (just aren’t open for phone calls etc). It’s very weird not having any meds, isn’t it?! I’ve got some progesterone because I had spotting last cycle, but my consultant only gave it to me for reassurance. Otherwise it would literally be nothing! Good luck! 🤞🍀 xx

I know, it’s very strange , seems too easy but then remember how many injections we did just to get to egg collection 🙈Hope you’re feeling ok today. Are you injecting progesterone or just cyclogest pessaries? X

Nightingale92 in reply to Rol81

Just the pessaries but utrogestan ones. 3 x a day. I’m only 3dpt today but already struggling with the unknown 🙈🙈 how are you getting on? Xx
