Today, I have my 6th EC! Hopefully, this is the one. I’ve had a chemical, a traumatic missed mc at 12 weeks, two BFNs and last round we decided to go for PGTA testing but our three embryos attested on day 5, before the could be tested. It’s difficult to maintain hope at this point But I’m hoping this is the one 🤞
Best of luck everyone, wherever you are on your journey Xx

Hiya, Yes I had a Day 2 fresh transfer this time. . .In total I’ve had 2 frozen transfers (2 double) and 3 fresh transfers (2 single - 1 at Day 5 snd 1 at Day2 - and 1 triple at Day 3). I became pregnant after one frozen transfer but miscarried at 3 months. I was on a totally different protocol this time (short with low stims) and the aim was to go for better quality of eggs rather than quantity. I only ended up with 2 eggs and then only one fertilised properly. This one developed as hoped over Day 1 and 2 and the embryologist said as there was only one, it was better to put it back in me. We were down for fresh transfer anyway, which worried me as I had an ear worm saying that frozen is better for my age…must have read it somewhere! But my consultant said fresh was best so I went with that. I’m keeping hopeful right now but May 10th is a defining moment for us! What are you hoping to do? x
Gosh, you’ve been through the mill! I hope this is your time, wishing u all the best for May 10th! I’m hoping that we get some blastocysts that are good enough quality to test 🤞 xx
Best of luck xx I feel for you, I've done 7 collections, had 1 MC and down to my second to last embryo (blood test this week). I know what you mean about losing hope, and I sort of feel numb at this point, but it's not over till it's over, right? My fingers are crossed for you.
Thank you for all the good vibes and wishes 😊 7 collected, so, so far so good. Now the nail biting, how many are mature? how many will fertilise? How many will be ‘normal’? How many will make it to day 5/6? Arrrrgggghhhhhh!
Thank you, still in the game! 5 eggs were mature, 4 embryos and 3 are looking on track (one a bit behind) on day 3 (today). We shall see what day 5 brings. On our last round we had 3 or 4 that arrested on day 5 Hopefully, this is our time! 😊
Hi lovelies, thought I’d give you an update, on day 5 or 6 we were told that we had one embryo that looked viable but they were worried about doing a biopsy but they would freeze it. Mixed emotion. It wasn’t what we hoped (embryos to test) but we do have something to freeze so all is not lost. Got another call this morning to say another embryo had turned into a blastocyst, so they will freeze it too (untested). So some good news for a change. One embryo is 4BC and the other is BC but not sure of the number. I know the quality is not the ‘best’ but I have heard on here that some women have luck with not ‘great’ quality embryos. Still in the game basically. Will have a double transfer FET next month I guess. Just wanted to let you all know. Thank you so much for your support! Wishing u all the best xxx
