First and probably only embryo transfer

After 6 rounroundrounds oof IVF between the age of 41 and 43, I finally have one blastocyst that can be transferred. I have read about women having multiple transfers and then being successful, but does anyone have a story about being successful first time? The blastocyst was made when I was 42.5 yrs old, and I'll be doing the transfer very soon. I'm unlilely to do more IVF again in the future so Im keeping everything crossed for this one and want to do all I can to help make it successful.

Hi Lara, wishing you all the best with your transfer 😊

I was successful first time back in 2018. It was my first IVF round and our fresh transfer worked. So it's absolutely possible! Wishing you all the luck this is your little miracle ✨

hi Lara, I’m a 40 year old who had one cycle, resulting in one embryo and now have one pretty awesome baby. My little boy arrived from my first and only cycle - the only blast from 14 eggs. He’s my little miracle - they do happen. I pinch myself almost every day. Sending you love and luck x

We had a bfp from our first fresh transfer but then had an early loss, however we also got a bfp from our first frozen transfer (now 2.5yrs old) and second transfer (38 weeks cooking). Sometimes that one is just all you need 🤞🏼❤️
