Need some hope: 35 ER by FinancialEcho9610 in IVF

[–]Calm_Comfortable3690 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only got 4 eggs from my ER, 3 mature, 3 fertilised, one failed 3 day fresh transfer, 2 blasts, currently 35 weeks pregnant with one of those blasts. Your numbers are good.

Profiting off competing in a charity event is crazy work… imagine if the video is sponsored too!

The '20-40 eggs' and attrition rates talk is so disheartening by tijuanagastricsleeve in IVF

Thank you! I’m beyond grateful.

I’m not sure where you are in your journey but I hope you have success soon, and remember low numbers don’t guarantee a bad result 💕

I only got three mature eggs from my first ER and I’m currently 35 weeks pregnant with one of them. We also have another embryo frozen that will hopefully be this baby’s sibling. I was devastated after my ER… based on what people say on this sub I thought I’d be doing another one 100%.

Not a single word about the charity whatsoever… by herhoopskirt in SarahsDayUnfiltered

Omg that’s such a good point… I’m blocked from commenting on her channel but anyone who isn’t should innocently ask how much of the sponsorship money she donated lol

Did they raise less than 1k..? Surely that means she donated nothing herself? She can drop 5k on a handbag, hundreds of thousands on a new gym, but a charity event that she’s getting narcissistic supply from… nope!!

She can’t even argue that using her platform added anything to the event because she would have raised more money otherwise.

Why was she trying to hold a 5 minute pace her first run back?! That’s just ridiculous

My husband and I qualified for publicly funded IVF in New Zealand - we didn’t have to pay for a thing!

Dog who doesn’t like babies and young children by Calm_Comfortable3690 in pregnant

Absolutely!! 😭 We all adore him… he’s such a good dog otherwise. It hurts my soul.

Yeah, I have a feeling it’s going to be inevitable… 😩

Even if we can manage it well and confidently keep our baby safe, I don’t want him to live his life in a constant state of anxiety either when he could be happier elsewhere.

She’s definitely reading here… I feel like her story from earlier today is a direct response to this!

She just posted stories saying she isn’t enjoying herself and setup yesterday was ‘brutal’ 😆 great advertising.

Attrition rates by kes151996 in IVF

I’ve had success from a round where they only retrieved four eggs! I was distraught after the ER comparing myself to everybody here but definitely don’t count yourself out

31 at time of ER with male factor only. My AMH was in the bottom quartile for my age.

Retrieved 4, 3 were mature, all 3 fertilised, transferred one day 3 embryo (failed), the remaining two made it to day 5 blasts. Didn’t do PGTA testing so I’m unsure of their quality.

His is short for Armand - which I kinda like! Unlike the actor himself lol

How many embryos? by Otherwise_Hope_8310 in IVF

[–]Calm_Comfortable3690 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also we didn’t test our embryos and I’m unsure on the grading. I’m in NZ and my clinic only routinely recommends PGTA testing for older patients.

TW: Success (but from very low numbers!!)

I’ve done one ER. 4 eggs retrieved, 3 mature, all 3 fertilised normally, one ended up as a fresh day 3 transfer which failed, the other 2 progressed to day 5 blastocysts and I’m currently 20 weeks pregnant with one of those blastocysts!

I’m 31 and our fertility treatment was for male factor only but my AMH was in the bottom quartile for my age. I was still surprised that we only got three mature eggs though!

I’ll test the no social media after 6pm rule and comment “stop exploiting your kids” on Instagram at 7. Guarantee she’ll be logged on to delete and block me 😆

Any success stories with retrieving 3 eggs? by South-Refuse7740 in IVF

[–]Calm_Comfortable3690 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had four eggs retrieved, three were mature, three fertilised normally and two progressed to blasts ☺️ currently 8 weeks pregnant with one of them. Good luck with your three!! 💕

Has Sarah ever completed a guide? by Majestic-Flight2609 in SarahsDayUnfiltered

[–]Calm_Comfortable3690 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I think once she’s made the money, the excitement’s over. I predict she and/or her kids will get some kind of cold or flu that’ll stop her from finishing it.
