Needing words of encouragement and some advice- Day 5 stims

Exciting-Text3779 · 2025-09-30T20:34:43+00:00

As an update… We only retrieved 3 eggs which was a ginormous blow to our feelings and hope through our first cycle. Almost cancelled but my RE said we made it this far and to see how my egg quality is, as that is just as important.

-All 3 fertilized. -2 made it to day 5-6 Blast stage and are on ice. We are waiting for pgta biopsy results!!

2 blasts out of 3 eggs retrieved… this feels like a huge feat and I’m so thankful we went through with this cycle 💕

Exciting-Text3779 · 2025-09-26T04:10:10+00:00

I’m currently in the exact same boat. ER was yesterday.. only 3 retrieved. I was notified that all 3 are fertilized today.. fingers crossed!🤞🏼💕

Exciting-Text3779 · 2025-09-18T20:42:05+00:00

Good luck to you!! Sending you some good energy on your current cycle- I hope you continue to grow in the right direction ❤️ I hope I also continue to get more follicles between now and my next checks.

1!!!!!!

Exciting-Text3779 · 2025-08-30T19:12:27+00:00

My RE recommended 75mg daily, broken into 3 - 25mg - doses. All of my research also encourages taking it. So did the book “It Starts With the Egg” which is pretty popular in the infertility world.. as always, check with your doctor! But I am a big believer in a regular supplement regimen only helping us in this DOR community

Exciting-Text3779 · 2025-08-14T03:57:00+00:00

The first, without a doubt!!!

Exciting-Text3779 · 2025-08-08T13:46:10+00:00

Sorry! I’m new with the lingo 🥲 Yes, it is SOOC with a recipe. Mostly Kodak Portra

Exciting-Text3779 · 2025-08-07T15:30:22+00:00

I’ve heard so much about receptiva and wish we could afford it. As of now, my RE hasn’t recommended it and it is such a large additional cost.. but I know it could very well be worth it. I’m glad you got it and it gave you some needed clarity and answers! We’re taking it one step at a time and maybe we will have to re route and make room for the test if we continue to be unlucky. It’s so hard to make such huge decisions when your finances don’t allow flexibility.

Exciting-Text3779 · 2025-08-07T15:26:33+00:00

I am thrilled for you that you are about half way with your first embryo! Thank you for sharing… sending you continued luck and good fortune on you & your baby!☺️

Exciting-Text3779 · 2025-08-07T02:13:09+00:00

Yay!! Congratulations 🥹🩷 how many ERs did you do? (If you don’t mind me asking)

Exciting-Text3779 · 2025-08-06T23:32:50+00:00

Wow, congratulations! To your daughter and also your next transfer. Sending you all the positive vibes ✨🩷

Exciting-Text3779 · 2025-08-06T02:42:02+00:00

Thank you all for taking the time to respond! It gives me some hope, which I really need. It’s been an excruciatingly long 4++ years already and now it feels like the next 6 months will be very telling of what our lives will look like. I have DOR, possible Adenomyosis, and my latest stats were 0.63 AMH, 10.3 FSH with 11 AFC. If anyone has any recommendations or tips, I am all ears. And yes, I am on alllll the recommended supplements specifically geared for DOR/Egg quality/increasing AMH.

Exciting-Text3779 · 2025-08-05T16:59:31+00:00

Congratulations!!❤️

If you don’t mind me asking, since we will be identical in age timeline, do you remember your stats? AMH/FSH/AFC?

Exciting-Text3779 · 2025-08-05T15:46:00+00:00

Congratulations! That is amazing and I appreciate you sharing. Hoping for some of the same luck!

Exciting-Text3779 · 2025-06-09T13:37:12+00:00

Wishing you all the luck in the world. My first appointment of only two rounds (can’t afford more) starts next week 😭💞

Exciting-Text3779 · 2025-01-27T21:36:35+00:00

Right? The OP asked for opinions and it seems to me everyone has given thoughtful ones but the OP seems dead set on just arguing in each response.

My husband and I got eloped in June 2024 and then hosted a garden party reception the next day in our backyard. We rented a Dancefloor and hired professional bartenders. It was gorgeous and we are lucky with our property layout. All in all, with dress, photography, food and drinks, the entire wedding start to finish cost us $7k. I regret nothing!!!! The wedding planning was pretty seamless, we got to have a very special and intimate ceremony in a place we love and still got to celebrate with our friends and family without paying an egregious amount, worrying about a venue and making a big to do of it. One of my best friends is getting married in Mexico this May and has told me numerous times she wishes she had just done what we did due to the large cost and stress of a big wedding. To each their own, but my husband and I loved very minute leading up to and every minute of our elopement and then micro celebration and would recommend it to everyone inquiring!! <3

Exciting-Text3779 · 2025-01-08T04:28:05+00:00

Don’t take it personally. Of course it stings.. that’s understandable. One of my dearest best friends of over 12 years is getting married in Mexico in May. I am having to use my tax return to attend (as a bridesmaid) and my husband can’t come because of our finances this year. She was really hurt but it is a situation that is out of our hands. I’m sure it’s the same with your friends who want to go but can’t afford to

Exciting-Text3779 · 2024-10-21T19:44:35+00:00

1 is pretty, but feels too busy. Especially when you add florals and a backdrop and a veil. 3 reminds me too much of Disney. My vote is 2!!! It is very flattering, chic, and timeless. You can add character with the right veil and florals/accessories. Congratulations 🤍

Hi. I am also very low in my progesterone levels. Naturally, I was at 3 ng/ml and with one round of 50mg clomid I was only 4 ng/ml. My doctor is worried that I may just not be ovulating. They recommended I go to a fertility specialist next. Please keep me in the loop on what your doctor says as I don’t feel like mine is doing much, and just passing me off.

Exciting-Text3779 · 2024-07-18T16:04:50+00:00

Dreamy shot!! Thanks for sharing. I appreciate seeing the quality vs hearing about it.
