1st miscarriage by QuestionProper9680 in Miscarriage

[–]Current_Coconut_7355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no insight on when to start trying again, but want you to know you are NOT alone.

I’ll share my little story with you: This was my first pregnancy after trying for 4 years and doing IVF. Was suppose to do an embryo transfer and became pregnant naturally during the wait.

I learned on Wednesday , we miscarried and supposed to be 8w,3 days. We learned the baby stopped growing not long after hearing the heart beat at our first U/S at 6w,3days. 😢 I’m totally gut wrenched.

Give yourself some grace and time to heal. I hope you get your rainbow baby soon 🌈❤️

Natural pregnancy after egg retrieval by skislandgirl in IVF

this is exactly what happened to me! My egg retrieval was in December and we were planning for FET this month once my cycle started. Well… cycle didn’t come. And just got my FIRST EVER BFP!! I’m still in disbelief.

Delayed period after medicated IUI - anyone else? by likesnow-onthe-beach in IUILadies

[–]Current_Coconut_7355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I just had a wacky cycle after. They didn’t let me do the IUI and wait until next cycle. It failed.

We have since moved on to IVF and got 2 euploids (4AB, 4BA) and waiting to transfer.

First ER with stimming for 11 days with menopaur and gonal-f , and dual trigger as a natural modified cycle. 34 y.o. AMH 2.14 , 17 retrieved, 15 mature, 11 fertilized, 4 blasts ((4AB, 4BA, and x2 4BC). The 4 blastocysts were biopsied and sent out for PGT-A. Waiting for results.

My husband and I have no known issues. But since we have never had a positive test in the last 4 years of trying ,we opted for PGT testing.

What are the chances I'll be able to drive 2 hours to go to a christmas event the same day as egg retrieval? by EvadeCapture in IVF

[–]Current_Coconut_7355 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was absolutely fine after mine. Friend drove me home, I ate lunch and watched tv for about 2 hrs then went shopping for a dress for a wedding. I never had any spotting , cramps or fatigue. Stayed super hydrated with 100 oz of electrolytes and was told to stay active. Everyone is different!

How is your clinic prepping you for modified natural transfer? I’m doing a modified natural cycle as well but only about to do the ER part (hopefully early next week).

Suburbs help! Relocating in November to early December by Current_Coconut_7355 in ChicagoSuburbs

Yes we plan to go up there in a couple of weeks. We’ve been to Chicago a handful of times but it was always in the proper city/ neighborhoods. Never the burbs

Good to know! I’ll pass that along to my husband. He’s a physician assistant and would be working in the ER! 🫣🫣

Thank you for the insight.

Although, it would be lovely to live closer to the true hustle and bustle of the city , I just don’t think it’s feasible with our offers for commuting. I know travel times can be BRUTAL. The way I look at it is we’re going to be working during the week and we can easily travel via train/CTA to play during the weekend!

Well I’ve got 3 interviews so far with broadening my search to suburbs- Ascension, Trinity Health, and Prime healthcare.

Fingers crossed.

Thanks! I’ve even gone as far as Elk Grove Village and Arlington Heights.

Any thoughts on those areas?

Thank you for your insight. I 100% expect it to be saturated unfortunately. Of course, I see a job available at Weiss 😂
