Intralapids Infusions / got to keep going 💕💕 💪 🤗

[Storm4]

Hi beautiful souls. I hope all is well. 🌸

I wanted to write and update you on my journey and thank you all and the platform for being a great support. I am so grateful for my only outlet.

To keep you updated, I have had four chemical pregnancies in the past year ( ICSI IVF - I only have one fallopian tube) and have been trying to conceive naturally since 2018, so I embarked on the assisted fertility journey in 2022.

I'm 37 and have been losing hope lately, snapping at my partner and feeling heartbroken 💔 .

Something within my soul spoke to me on Monday evening, and I decided to go again in two weeks. I'm fighting with what's left, and I'm going again!!

My fifth FET transfer will be in two weeks, and the doctor has told me to start intralapid infusions. I'm praying that this works out because I'm mentally and physically exhausted. 

I encourage anyone going through this exhausting journey to keep going although it’s tough we will get there in the end and if you’ve decided to stop or not continue I totally understand and respect you for your decision too. 💕💕💕🤗🤗🤗🌷

I would luv to hear if anyone has used intralapid infusions and resulted in a live birth? Also, am I crazy about going again two weeks after my chemical, or could this result in something positive? I would love to hear your success stories and feedback on the infusion 

Sending you all baby magic dust and sprinkles x

I haven't yet had a live birth, although I know those on the forum who have had a live birth after a protocol that included intralipids.

I am just under 12 weeks pregnant on my 5th cycle of IVF (second cycle using donor eggs) after 4 miscarriages (2 chemical). I've had two intralipid infusions and due to have my third shortly. My future isn't certain yet but I am hopeful 💗

I wish you all the best, I do believe intralipids + steroids have an important place in fertility protocols especially for those with recurrent loss.

Thank you, and a massive congratulations to you. I am praying and wishing you a smooth and peaceful pregnancy. Everything will continue to be positive for you on this journey, I'm sure. Thank you for sharing your experience with me. You have given me hope. Would you be so kind as to share what steroids you are on? I am on corotrope progynova lubion injections, aspirin and pregnycare before conception. 💕💕💕💕

I have intralipids along with other medication (steroids being one) for high NK cells. This resulted in my two little girls who are now 6 and 4 and I’m currently 11 weeks pregnant with my 3rd good luck 😊 xx

[Storm4 in reply to lianm8]

Thank you for sharing your story with me. I feel inspired and happy to hear your beautiful babies are grown and you have another beauty on the way. Please could you share the steroids you were/ are on 💕💕 Thank you for your good wishes x

[lianm8 in reply to Storm4]

I’m on 10mg of prednisalone and have taken that since before transfer. Was also on Clexane 40mg but have been taken off that due to bleeding, take progynova Lubion 2x a day and 2x cylogest a day along with the intralipids! I honestly think the treatment is what helped me get and stay pregnant. I had two miscarriages and two failed transfers before my children. X

[Storm4 in reply to lianm8]

Thank you so much. I am on the exact same medications apart from the Clexane xx Perhaps I will ask my doctor in Cyprus about Clexane. 💕

[lianm8 in reply to Storm4]

good luck!!! Xx

[Storm4 in reply to lianm8]

Thank you so much, and all the very best to you, too xxxx … I also forgot to ask did the intralapid infusions give you any side effects? Could you still go to work and function properly? X

[lianm8 in reply to Storm4]

yes no side effects at all! Takes about two hours can act as normal after! Xx

[Storm4 in reply to lianm8]

wonderful thank you xxx

[Natasha1999 in reply to Storm4]

Hey, I had the Intralipid on the date of my transfer. I too went to Cyprus for my IVF. I’ve not yet had another Intralipid, as waiting for my scan after bleeding last week. As soon as it’s confirmed all is ok with the baby, I’m booking my next Intralipid as I’ve heard they can be very effective xx

[Storm4 in reply to Natasha1999]

Thanks for sharing hope all continues to go well for you.

[Natasha1999 in reply to lianm8]

Hi there,

Hope you don’t mind me jumping in…I’ve recently had IVF, had a positive three weeks ago and then my HCG blood confirmed I was as far a long as per the transfer dates. Then last Thursday I started to have very dark discharge and clots. I’ve been so worried I’ve miscarried and am waiting for my scan. I too have been taking prednisalone, progynova and Clexane. So was just wondering if not too personal, how was the Clexane making you bleed?? X

[lianm8 in reply to Natasha1999]

I have a haematoma and as Clexane thins the blood it can make you bleed a lot more than you normally would. I had a haematoma with my last pregnancy too and clinic took me of Clexane that time around too! If your blood is dark/brown sounds like old blood? Xx

[Natasha1999 in reply to lianm8]

Hey lovely, oh bless you. It’s good they caught this in time for you too. I’m praying that’s what’s wrong for me too. At learnings I know, I can then content clinic for advice. Thanks so much for replying xx and hope all is going well for you with your current pregnancy xx
