Would you try for a baby in between banking cycles?

I’m in between cycle 2 and 3 of three cycles of IVF. This month will be our month off and then we’ll start egg collection on my next period. Would you try and get pregnant this month? The way I see it, best case scenario is I got pregnant and saved the final cycle until another time, the other is I don’t fall pregnant (haven’t for the last three years!) and then start egg collection for our final round. Has anyone else tried in between cycles? Would you try?

Is there any time limit on when you need to complete the embryo banking? Even if there is, would you care about that if you had a successful pregnancy?
I would try.

Yes I would try! Don't want to waste the potential of a good egg!

Hello, i would try, i think the banking packages need to be done within 12 months, but in reality, if you got pregnant naturally, i doubt you would care much if one cycle was lost, plus you have the embryos you have frozen so far. Time is precious, so i would take every opportunity possible.

Ok thanks everyone. I will try. I don’t hold out much hope but you never know, worth a shot! Xx
