What to tell work?
We are eagerly awaiting the moment when we reach the top of that waiting list so we can try our first shot at IUI (we have agreed two IUI cycles and then we will go to IVF/
ICSI
. My question today is what do I say to my boss.

Feel completely deflated before even starting
Had our first appointment 2 months ago and have another appointment next week where we will talk about dates to start - we will be having
ICSI
. I feel completely deflated and we have not even started. 4 close friends have been through this, none of which were successful after a number of tries.

Update on IVF & ICSI mix up
Indeed, an error has been made &
ICSI
should have been done on Monday and not IVF. I will write a letter and provide the necessary evidence. Will let you know the outcome once I know but I will be pushing for a 2nd cycle on the NHS. The egg and sperm were ‘fabulous’ according to my consultant.

Update - well wishes - 30 weeks pregnant and waters broke
I was lucky enough to get pregnant on my second round of
icsi
. I had to pinch myself as I still don’t believe it’s real. Only after my 20 week scan did I start to settle down . At 30 weeks pregnant ( two weeks ago) my waters suddenly broke in the middle of the night .

Hi guys - am new here - my IVF journey so far...
Just finished our first fresh
icsi
cycle which ended with a bfn. I was so stressed throughout the whole cycle and totally underestimated how hard it was going to be both physically and mentally! Some days I couldn't even walk properly due to the progesterone injections!!

ICSI fertilisation failure
I received devastating news this morning that the egg didn't fertilise in the
ICSI
process. The clinic wasn't sure why, and I've read online that it's really rare for eggs not to fertilise in the
ICSI
process. Has this ever happened to anyone and what were your next steps? I'm 36 and have low AMH.

Long protocol or short protocol IVF? Please help!
We have to have
ICSI
due to hubbys low count but I've been told I can choose either long or short protocol. Long might give us more eggs but I'm at risk of OHSS. Short is less risk of OHSS but probably fewer eggs so might have to go through it more times?

Next step.....ICSI
Hi All, Thank you for your comments on my last (very angry) post. Both made it to our appointment & although a little hungover, lovely man resumed & it was fine. Very tired girlfriend felt a little guilty at the public boyfriend bashing but that’s how I felt last night. We got good news & bad news

The dreaded 2ww...any success stories?
I had 14 follicles, with 12 eggs. 8 we’re fertilised by
ICSI
as 5 progressed over night. However only 1 made it to the end and we had none to freeze so just the 1 blastocyst put back. Already that makes me nervous, it’s a lot of pressure on one little blast but I’m trying just to stay positive.

IVF. Post ET trigger shot tested out after 2 days. Is this possible?
It's my first round of
ICSI
. I took ovidrel 1dpt. Out of curiosity thought I would test it out of system hmmm. HPT was positive yesterday 2dpt but negative this morning 3dpt is this possible? It was 12 clicks of ovidrel. I thought it would stay in system for a lot longer 🙈.

How many rounds of IVF / ICSI has everyone had with their own eggs ? (Not including frozen ET)?
Ive had 2 rounds of
ICSI
. Now in 2 minds whether to go for a 3rd (hoping 3rd time lucky) or move to donor. I swear if i was rich i would keep going with my own eggs until it was successful! Just wondering how many rounds others have had and if you have had your BFP?

When this journey just gets harder with each day 😢
So after three failed
icsi
cycles we are no further ahead with working out what our next steps should be. Clinic one: three failed
icsi
cycles long protocol. Recommended a short protocol but wasn’t positive about it or an embryo donor. Clinic two: recommended short protocol as that’s all they do.

Depressed due to Endo pain, IVF and abortion
I started my
ICSI
-IVF, despite of my husband’s excellent sperm quality, as doctor suggested it. I also got mild ovarian hyperstimulation due to 15 eggs in which 6 were fertilized. My fresh cycle and cryo cycle failed. I got pregnant in my 2nd cryo cylcle this year January.
