Hi All, I had a failed FET transfer back in September and I am now prepping for my 2nd transfer middle of November. I was so so so positive back in Septmeber and our world crashed when it did not work. I am struggling to keep positive for this transfer as both me and my husband were absolutely heartbroken when we got the call to say our last transfer was not successful.
I am 32 with PCOS and have 3 embryos left. We did not get them tested which I am regretful for now, but my clinic did not recommend it due to my age and the fact our only issue was PCOS.
My lining only made it to 6.3mm before transfer last time, but the clinic were happy to proceed as they said this could be my 'normal' and it only reached 6.8mm during egg collection. However, they have decided to put me on patches this time round to see if the lining grows a bit thicker. My hormone bloods after the transfer did not indicate a reason for the transfer not working so we will probably never know.
I am feeling so anxious , nervous and angry, and I am kind of rebelling a little e.g. enjoying my takeaways, I love exercise so I have been running and spinning and plan to do an adventure race next weekend to feel 'alive' again (which I know is probably not advisable as I will probably have started the patch). I did everything right the last time, and were just met with grief.
Advice, uplifting stories welcome!
TIA XX
