I first started IVF almost three years ago and was extremely lucky to have a BFP after the first transfer of a fresh embryo. We are now blessed to have a happy healthy son.

I am now 37 year old and have been trying to fall pregnant again for the past 14 months. I have only received BFNs after 7 transfers of 5 day old fresh (x2) & defrosted (x5) embryos, all of which have been of high quality.

The question I have is is there any possible reason why It was so easy for me to fall pregnant the first time but not the second? The reason why I am infertile is because my tubes were blocked so I had them removed completely a year ago. In the last transfer, one of the two embryoes was as good as the first that resulted in our son.

Is there a possible reason or is just a result of bad luck?
