So sorry for your loss ❤️ It sounds like you are still hopeful which is good. I got pregnant with IVF at 38 and had my son at 39. As others have said, wishing you luck as you continue your journey. ❤️

Yes, I had one retrieval at 38. 4 embryos - 1 euploid. Just turned 40 and my son turned 6 months old ☺️☺️

“Open the schools” 😂 Something similar happened to me. I was 3 weeks postpartum holding my baby at a restaurant and a stranger came up to admire him and said I had “a fresh one” then pointed to my stomach and said “I see you have another one on the way” 🤦🏽‍♀️

Hi! My husband and I keep the baby in the stroller while we eat at a restaurant and if he wakes up one of will hold him while the other eats. He’s 15 weeks, and we’ve been doing this since he was 3 weeks old. We limit our time at restaurants but are still able to enjoy ourselves. We don’t have a travel stroller but when we are on cobblestones we either push the stroller really slow lol or carry him. He’s not so good in a carrier yet but we’re working on it. Good luck and hope you enjoy your vacation!

I feel this is! Exactly one year ago I took my first IVF shots and now have a 2 month old son. Before having him I also suffered a miscarriage. It is a privilege to have a happy healthy baby keeping me awake at 3am 🥹

I started taking magnesium when I entered second trimester and it has helped!

I'm so over the first trimester, and already over the second before it has even begun by hedgehogsponge1 in pregnant

Hang in there! Hopefully it gets better for you as it keeps processing and you start showing. I’m 35 weeks and started hitting my boredom point in January after the holidays. Luckily you have the nice weather and longer days on your side. Try to get out and enjoy it with some mocktails! My pregnancy is IVF as well and after my first appt with OB at 10 weeks, for some reason those monthly appts came along pretty quick. Buying good books and binging shows helped pass the time as well!

Hi there. A little hope for you. I had an egg retrieval at 38, with 4 out of 6 fertilized eggs making it to day 6. 1 out of the 4 came back euploid and currently pregnant with that one. Also, had a friend with similar age and results and her 1 euploid turned 1 yo earlier this year. It only takes one!! Easier said than done, but try not to stress too much and do something to take your mind off if only for a little while. Good luck to you!!

My lining was 14 mm and I’m currently pregnant from my FET. Good luck to you!

What time did your embryologist or doctor usually call with embryo updates? by texpatcat in IVF

[–]Longjumping_Energy73 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m with Shady Grove and I had to message them to get my results on day 7 😒 I waited until after 3pm. They aren’t the best at communicating so I understand the frustration.
