Icsi ivf may 2024

@camelinastorm @BakinABaby I feel so sad that out of 4 of us , only @hopefullsosbry got the BFP. The odds are very bad if you think only 1 out of 4 got pregnant . :(
obviously so happy for hopefullsosbry , but so sad for us .
I hope all 3 of us get our positives next time around .
im sad to read both of you don’t have any Frosties left , which makes this even harder , like it isn’t hard already 😪
I luckily do have 9 frozen so I do understand I’m very fortunate in this way , as I know frozen cycles are pretty easy with no injections to take . Just patches and tablets . I do feel like frozen cycle has more success than fresh trasfer as body isn’t traumatised from the big ovary’s and body feels in a more natural state . Keep me updated girls when something new happens while we all wait for our new cycle . I’m invested to see how your egg transfer goes and all that interesting stuff , or just to rant on here :) are you guys thinking of fresh trasfer again after egg collection ? Or you wanting freeze all ?

@BakinABaby and @Ilovebees so sorry for you both, mine was also negative, no frosties we are going again in August we said this time was our last ( we were due a new kitchen fitted, hubby says who needs a new kitchen let's go again, now it's the mission again to order medication that isn't needing a bank loan 🤣

@Ilovebees no frosties unfortunately 😕. I contacted my doc but haven’t heard back yet. I need a full cycle as no embryos.

Next cycle, that seems reasonable. Give your body a brief rest. I’m bleeding way heavier than my normal. I don’t think we’re doing any procedures this month, might just be busy iykwim 😜, I’ve heard for some couples with unexplaine infertility, IVF resets something and they get pregnany on next cycle. It’s not like we have anything better to do.

@BakinABaby aww I feel so sorry for both of us :( have you got any frozen embryos ? Are you thinking of FET next ? I rang my clinic and they said that we can go again once my period starts in one months time , not this bleed what I am having at the moment , but on the next one xx this period right now seems quite short and light , not too heavy at all , only lasted 3 days , and now it’s finished pretty much . normally my period is 5 days . I was expecting heavy period after egg collection and failed embryo trasfer .

@Ilovebees mm yeah, my period started bang at the same time I would normally expect it on a regular cycle. I was still taking progesterone, I already googled and it is not certain it will postpone your bleed, it might.

@hopefullsosbry wow congrats to you , well done , yay ! You do deserve it so much!
@BakinABaby aww nooo , how did you period start already ? Was you stil on progesterone and it still started ? X
well i guess me and bakinababy will have to go through it again :(

best of luck to you @hopefullsosbry wishing you the healthiest of pregnancies xxxx

Sending you all the love 💖💖

Hello @Ilovebees I started full on bleeding today and while yesterdays test showed promise, todays I’d consider negative or the barest of squinters at best. So off to another round of IVF for me, at some point.

Hi, yes I tested yesterday and got a BFP !!! Can’t believe it .. after 5 losses and 2nd round on ivf I am still wary as know it can still come away etc,how are you ? Hope things are ok? Did you take next steps for a FET?

@BakinABaby @hopefullsosbry how are you both getting on ? Have you tested yet ? Xx

@hopefullsosbry hey ,I will not get any more testing done as I have had all , iv had hysteroscopy with camera all okay , iv had blood tests done - all fine - sperm testing is perfect no problems there . I think I just need the steroids , which I have now - just need an embryo to stick now to see if that’s what I needed xx I belive my issue is immune related , because I can get pregnant but my body rejects it at 6 weeks each time . So that’s why I’m a strong believer that steroids can help me . Lower the immune system and not attack the embryo anymore .

@BakinABaby oh okay ! I am also an early tester and it’s true you need a lot of cheap tests to test every day otherwise it’s going to be expensive . Good luck with testing and I pray for you that it’s going to be positive and that you’re tests come on Wednesday 😍do your shops sell first response too or don’t they have this exact brand ? X x

@Ilovebees they do 😂 but the good ones are like 8€ a piece and the other ones are like 2-4€ for one that’s basically the same as the internet cheapies. I’m a serial tester so it’s about economy for me 😀of course if I just have to poas and cannot live with myself otherwise I’ll buy something locally.

@Ilovebees awh, as you say though at lest you have some frozen .. yeh I think it gets easier every time you have a loss , you seem to pick yourself up quicker each time ?do you think you will ask for more test etc ? Or have you had most that you can have ? Have you had partners sperm DNA checked ? I was thinking if this doesn’t work I’ll ask for a repeat of sticky blood , and I might see if I need a saline sonogram and the environment inside the womb to be checked ?? I think that’s the most frustrating for me is the not knowing why it isn’t working ?!

I’m just sooo glad I have 9 frozen embryos , at least something went right form this failed cycle 😊

@BakinABaby not holding out hope lol , my period started today 😆
yes FET for me next , I have to call my clinic on Tuesday about my negative and see what happens next after that .
you order the pregnancy tests online ? Do your shops not sell any sensitive tests in shops ? So you don’t have to order ?
I use easy@home and wondfo, they are brilliant . Xx also 10 sensitivity and so cheap too , wondfo is my fave xx

@hopefullsosbry yes it’s a big head fuck , I can’t belive how upset I was few days ago about my negative and now I’m back to normal feeling positive 🤯 my period started today , which I’m happy about because I want to get rid of all the medicine and toxins from my body . My official date is Tuesday but I stopped meds on Friday. I still tested today to see if there could be a line but there was absolute nothing , blank white .
crazy how my mindset has changed only in couple of days , I guess Iv been through it before so it doesn’t affect me as much anymore . I just get on with life . I will contact my clinic on Tuesday as requested and I’ll just tell them my period started by itself before test day even while on progesterone . The weird thing is that I have had tiny tiny bit of brown spotting ever since the day after my trasfer and all the way until I stopped my meds , I wonder if I didn’t have enough progesterone support , 800mg cyclocest I was on . Once at night time . At first I thought it’s cervical irritation from trasfer but I don’t think so as it lasted all 9 days until I stopped meds and period came 2 days after stopping meds so pretty fast . Maybe my body wasn’t ready to accept the embryo in the first place ….. has bad feeling from the beginning with this trasfer due to spotting so didn’t think it would work .

@Ilovebees I use one steps, which are 10miu. I knwo they get a bad rep but they have always heen truthful for me, never gotten a false positive and the one time I was pregnant I got a positive with them on 8dpo and I did opks that cycle + I actually always feel ovulation so I’m sure I did not count wrong. But this was my last one 😅 I ordered a fresh batch but shipping takes ages to these borderlands, I’m hoping they’re here wednesday.
Are you still holding out hope or making plans for next cycle? FET for you right?

It’s confusing huh?? It makes me wana cry all the stress and factors that come into this fertility game☹️ .. there’s just so many who ifs and what you should do then confilicting info that you shouldn’t do !! It’s such a head f¥€k for sure 😵‍💫😢have you contacted your clinc yet ? My OTD is still another 6 days away !!! It’s soooo long ! @camelinastorm did you get your beta yet? Hope you are ok ?

@hopefullsosbry yes I totally get you , I guess you could count it that way , I did as well at first but it got a bit confusing later so I switched to every day that passed instead as next day . I think it’s because some embryos are just expanding and some are already hatching so I guess the few hours difference doesn’t matter too much anyways because the results are going to be whatever they are going to be anyways . I think that’s why it’s better to just wait longer before testing in the first place so the hours difference won’t make a difference if you already 7days past trasfer as it should be positive no matter what the embryo looked like at the time of trasfer xx

@Ilovebees i think 5dpt is 5 full complete days that would make it 5dpt that morning (my transfer was 9:30 am) so after 9:30am that morning your actually starting your next day that day so will be into 6th day ?

example - my transfer was last Saturday 1st so Sunday 2nd I was 1dpt by 9:30am Sunday morning (as a whole 24 hours had passed) then I was into my 2nd day (which 2nd day would end on the Monday 9:30) does that make sense ? I could be wrong but that’s how I worked mine ? Is that not right then?? 🤨🤔

@hopefullsosbry ok so you’re waiting , well done to you for being so patient . I could never wait 😁 hopefully the waiting makes it all worth it and gives you your long waited BFP. Good luck .

@BakinABaby awww , I know it might be negative today but your only on the 5th day after trasfer which makes you only 4dp5dp which is still so early ? Are you using first response ? It picks up hcg 6.3
I wouldn’t use any tests needing 25 hcg levels . good luck I hope tomorrow you will get a faint line as 5dp5dt a lot of people do get a line . I remember last FET I got faint line at 4dp5dt but on day 5 it was clearly visible without squinting xx

@BakinABaby are you 5dp ? It is early but I get where you are coming from as I was the same .. mist test you see online etc have a line by 5dp and I had a really faint (which could just have still been trigger) so it hard to see when comparing to others test, but everyone’s body’s different and I guess you never know until OTD ? Hope you are ok, I understand the dread feeling, sending you lots of hugs and hope 🤞🏽✨🙏

@Ilovebees tested negative today. Could still be early but not very hopeful, I feel the period coming.

Hi, sorry have been quiet .. just been a bag of emotions .. I have decided to not test again until my OTD as it’s not till 15th, sat next week .. I felt so down with the very faint line and was driving myself crazy analysing test .😵‍💫. at the end of the day what will be will be so ill know either way on sat, just thought as save myself a week of stress .. so hears hoping for a miracle 🤞🏽✨🙏

hope you are all well , how’s every one else ? Xx

How is everyone getting on with the tests ? I am defo out still negative . I have already accepted it and it’s fine :)
@hopefullsosbry how your tests today ? Xx
