ooh sweetie that's fabulous news! Number 4 still has a chance to catch up, but even if it doesn't, that's still a good possibility of two in the womble and one in the deep freeze Grin I'll get the sheet put onto the BNA fb tonight. It really did make fascinating reading.

Ooooh I've just had a thought. If they both divide, sweetie could end up with quads!!!

beedle sorry to hear you are still suffering from faulty pee sticks. However, it ain't over til AF lands, so to speak, so am brooking no argument for another tripe whammy with you, solars and cup.

I think I'm about to fall asleep at my desk this afternoon, this is really not good. Very warm and humid in the office today, and not much work going around to keep me awake! I've even succumbed to having a real coffee with genuine caffeine in it. I might take it back though, as it appears to be faulty Wink

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 11/04/2013 13:05

Both of the eggs could divide, how do you feel about quads GrinGrinGrinGrin

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 11/04/2013 13:06

X post Geek great minds eh!!!!

ControlGeek · 11/04/2013 13:06

boo great minds Grin Grin Grin

BeedlesPineNeedles · 11/04/2013 13:14

I don't think sweetie wants to talk to us any more :o

Sorry, sorry, sorry I had to go to a meeting.

Keep I hope it means 36% of the 46%, I would hate to think it means 36% chance - OMG I need to go lay down in a dark room just thinking about it. Success rate with just 1 day 3 embie would be 45% and 46% with 2.

If anyone says the Q word again I am going to flounce!!!

ControlGeek · 11/04/2013 13:31

Nope, sweetie's not there.

Here sweetie, have a biscuit. You're going to need to keep your strength up now, my lovely Grin

SweetieTime · 11/04/2013 13:36

let me try to type the stats as they appear in The Sheet

Day3 (where more than 3 embies are available)
SET 45.5% (47/99)
MBR 0%
DET 46% (129/278)
MBR 36%

Day 4 or 5
SET 52.6% (59/112)
MBR 3.4%
DET 53.5% (15/28)
MBR 26.6%

BeedlesPineNeedles · 11/04/2013 14:03

So sweetie MBR I'm guessing is multiple birth rate, so could be more than twins :o

Was quintuplets the Q word we're not allowed to use? :o

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 11/04/2013 15:31

What's the difference between SET and DET? Those stats look pretty good Smile

I've just tried making some fudge for the first time, I'm nervously waiting for it to set.

SweetieTime · 11/04/2013 15:57

Cup single embie transfer and double embie transfer. hmmmm fudge. I had a nightmare with soggy brownies recently, hope you get firm fudge

NoCupcakesOrCocktails · 11/04/2013 16:18

Ahh it's so obvious now! I was coming up with some crazy ideas.
The fudge seems to be setting well, it's a bit messy though. I've made it for my work friends birthday which is tomorrow. I hate it when baking goes wrong Sweetie, it's so disappointing.

The Zita West book came today, I've read the first part about fertility. I've not learned anything new yet but it's still interesting reading. I'm definitely not dtd enough, I can't manage 3-4 times a week (unless its around ovulation). I'd say we are lucky to manage 2 times a week. I think that's plenty after being together for 9 years! If only we had ttc to conceive during our early twenties when we were at it like rabbits Grin

Solars · 11/04/2013 17:14

Oh Sweetie 4!!! Cleverly avoids using the word quad You will have your hands full! Still brooking like anything for you x

Cups very impressed with the fudge, hope you're leaving a few pieces of samples Smile I have the zita west book too, I thought it was interesting too.

I've just come back from the hairdressers and I didn't have my usual hairdresser as she's away, so this guys talking away as they do and then suddenly asks 'have you got any kids?' I reply no not yet but he was quite sweet as the next thing he said was, 'my advice, don't leave it too late and keep trying, it took me and my wife 2 years and she was initially told she could never have kids' He goes it just happened out of nowhere. I'm glad he didn't ask me any further questions though.

Geek I think you deserve a sleep at your desk, you've been working far too hard recently.

Ladies, The Sheet is now up on the BNA fb pages. Sorry it took me so long sweetie

cup well done on the fudge! I've never been brave enough to even attempt anything half as tricky-sounding apart from a very brief foray into the world of jam-making, where I made some fabulous black-currant-flavoured concrete The Zita West book certainly does emphasise the need for frequent SWI/SFF! On the plus side, though MrG refused to read the pages I bookmarked about how sperm need to be regularly refreshed, he has been very good at refreshing his boys manually if we've not SWI/SFF'd for a few days.

solars wow, that conversation could have been so difficult, yet it sounds like he played it perfectly. It's always good to hear those kind of success stories.

Well, overtime is officially over, and my overtime sheet has been signed. I will get the equivalent of 41 hours' extra pay in May's paypacket but I don't think I could have kept it up for even one more weekend. Thank gawd Year End only comes round once a year! I'm 4DPO today. It won't hurt for me to have a bottle glass of wine to celebrate, will it?

ControlGeek · 12/04/2013 07:39

Oooh sweetie today's the day! Will you get another call this morning, or won't you find out more until your appointment this afternoon? What time is your appointment?

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 12/04/2013 07:53

Brooking for your quads appointment today Sweetie

Go Sweetie! Brooking for a good appointment!

Masses of good luck for today sweetie

Brooking for you Sweetie, how are the embies doing this morning? x

SweetieTime · 12/04/2013 11:21

Just popping in with a quick embie update for you all before we set off. Appointment at 2pm.

So all 4 are still going strong - YEAH
We have a grade 1 with 7 cells, a molecular (I think this is what she said but basically it is the stage before blasto usually seen on day 4) , a grade 2 with 8 cells and a grade 3 with 6 cells. So they were really happy with this. They want to continue to culture the 8 & 6 cell embies over the weekend in case they get to blasto and can be frozen.

Of course now me and DH worry by having 2 strongest put back we may get twin quads but we will cross that bridge when we get to it.

Bye for now ladies, I will be back when we return with them on board

Solars · 12/04/2013 11:26

That is excellent news Sweetie, well done to those embies!! Good luck x

EverythingIsTicketyBoo · 12/04/2013 11:29

Oh Sweetie that all sounds bloody fabulous!!!! So excited for you Grin Brooking super hard for you and the sweetie quads

keepitgoing · 12/04/2013 11:37

Wow sweetie they're all doing so well! Your morula sure is in a hurry :) good luck I hope the Transfer's not too painful on the old bladder.

BeedlesPineNeedles · 12/04/2013 12:06
