My hubby and I are on day 4 of stims - our first IVF cycle. Just wondering if there's anyone else in the same boat who might want to share the journey? :)

@User491 I’m crossing my fingers and toes for you for good news. Xx

User491 · 13/08/2023 12:24

@Strawberry08 thank you, but it doesn't sound great.
Embryo is average quality, and is currently 7 cell (I have no real idea what that means) 🙈
But I have a transfer time, but we won't know if we are on to go ahead until Tuesday morning when they check it and ring me back..
just got to try and keep positive ❤️🤞🏻

Embryo Arrested at some point on Sunday 😢

Crap news, but got to keep positive for future rounds.. I'll get a call this afternoon with the rough timescales for a new round, I'm assuming it's going to be about 3/4 months 😢

Strawberry08 · 15/08/2023 14:15

@User491 oh gosh I am so sorry to hear that 🥺 not the news you wanted at all. Stay positive. I hope they get the new round planned asap and that it’s a really successful one.

@Strawberry08 thank you ☺️ 😢

Will need a bit of time to get back to normal, but I've been told I'll get a video call in 4-6 weeks and there is no wait list currently, so I'm thankful for that at least!

How are you?

JennyF84 · 15/08/2023 15:22

@User491 I'm sorry to hear your news, was this your first round? I hope you get your next round as quickly as is feasible for you xx

Koalie · 15/08/2023 20:13

@User491 oh honey I’m so sorry ☹️ sending lots of love to you and your partner xx

@JennyF84 thank you 😊 no this was round 2, we get 3 on the NHS, hoping they make some changes for the next one 🤞🏻
Very thankful to have the 3 though, as some people are not as lucky!

@Koalie thank you, obviously wasn't meant to be this time round. Still a shock/not sunk in totally yet.. we will get there one day 😊
Hope you doing well ☺️

Koalie · 16/08/2023 12:12

@User491 Did you try the Impryl this time around? Xx

@Koalie I didn't this time, but 100% going to for this next round. Funnily enough I have been looking at it this morning.

Where did you get yours from please? 😊 x

Koalie · 16/08/2023 14:30

@User491 we got ours from the fertility family website and both myself and my husband took it along with Vit D and fish oil. It shouldn’t be taken alongside any anti oxidants so we tried to keep the rest of our vitamins to a minimum. Xx

Hello everyone,

Hope you are all ok!

Just wanted to pop on to see how you all are @Koalie @Strawberry08 @Izzie94x

I can't remember how far along you all are, but I know @Izzie94x would have been due. Good luck to you all ❤️

I've started my 3rd round, on down reg at the mo, and go in for collection 2/11 all being well. Third time lucky 🍀 🤞🏻

Strawberry08 · 29/09/2023 13:04

@User491 hey! All good here thank you. I’ve got 4-5 weeks to go.
Il reply for @Izzie94x as she may have her hands slightly full… she welcomed a beautiful baby boy a few days ago, just before her due date!

oh that’s great to be starting your next round. How are you feeling?

User491 · 29/09/2023 13:15

@Strawberry08 wow I bet you are so excited 🥰 have you got any names picked?

How lovely for @Izzie94x congratulations ❤️
What is he called ☺️

I know, I'm so pleased I didn't have the long wait. I'm ok thank you for asking 🥰
Feel a bit flat about it but trying to remain positive 😊 x
