1st IVF - only 2 eggs collected yesterday

I am devastated. Only 2 eggs collected yesterday, which I know from obsessive googling is not a good thing. I will find out this morning if any fertilised.

I still can't quite believe I am in this position. Two and a half years ago I got pregnant quickly. MC. Then things started to get difficult but I got pregnant again 9 months later. MC again. Now I'm here. I know quite a few people who have struggled to conceive but they all now have children, yet here I am I cannot even get a decent number of eggs. I am so wound up with thinking about it all.

Sorry to everyone going through infertility. It really is a living hell.

Hi OP. What was your AMH before the IVF? We're you on the highest dose? If not they'll up your drugs on the next round Flowers

OP I had 2 eggs collected. Not unexpected because my amh was low.

I thought the worst- it was looking bleak. However- 1 embryo, 1 bfp, 1 baby who is now 2 years old. Quality is much more important than quantity! Don't give up yet.

Thanks so much for replying. My last AMH was taken last February and was 8.4. I was 36 then - now 37. Glad you're 2 - egg cycle worked chatty. You must have been so relieved.

Unfortunately neither of mine fertilised but they'll up the dose for the next one. We get two nhs cycles where I live.

Sorry to hear that OP, do they know why they didn't fertilise? Can they include icsi next time?
