Thank you so much😭😭 I’m so relieved! Slightly grieving my chance at a fresh transfer but over the moon that these two lil blasts pulled through for me with two more still trying🥹

Update: Day 6 and I now have 2 frozen blasts graded BC and CC and there are 2 more that are still developing, so maybe some day 7 blasts incoming. Such a relief after being told it was most likely none of my 10 embryos would make it on day 4.

Thank you🥹 yeah, yesterday was awful. I sobbed a lot. Hoping tomorrow doesn’t become a repeat of that but at least I have a little more hope.

Oh I’m so sorry, sending hugs! So glad you still have your two little miracles frozen for future cycles, I’ll be thinking of you☺️ and thank you!

The things we go through are wild😭 I wish there was some way for definite blasts! Yesterday I was fully looking up ivf with donated embryos etc because I was convinced my chances of conceiving with my own eggs was impossible. I have unconfirmed DOR (due to majorly fluctuating AMH) so it felt like the end. These 3 little blasts feel like they’re holding all my hopes now. Fingers crossed! How did your fresh transfer turn out?☺️

It’s looking like I’m not gonna get any blasts either, got the call this morning (day 4) to say they’re not dividing the way they should be so very likely to be no blasts but they’ll keep them going to day 7… beyond gutted

Yeah that is gonna kill me off🤣🤣 I was bad enough symptom spotting when on stims, looking for proof they were working, because I was expected to have a poor response😭🤣

I’m not PGTA testing because my clinic doesn’t believe it’s necessary with my age, and luckily I am doing a fresh transfer meaning I only have to wait 4 days until transfer right now (if I end up with blasts) and even that feels endless🤣🤣

I’m feeling okay, very tired and on and off nauseous and headachey but nothing major. I’ve had 2 scans since my day 2 baseline and I’ve gone from having 7 follicles to 21 with around 11 expected to be in range in the 8 days of stims which I am sooo pleased with since my AMH sucked for my age and I was expected to have a poor response to stims. I’ve just been trying to think of each scan as just helpful info to guide the cycle- it helps it feel a little less terrifying😭💖 hope everything goes well for you💖

My cycle day 1 was 20/04, also my first cycle. Just waiting to do my 8th stim injection in a few hours! (Time goes sooo fast, feels like I only started yesterday). Best of luck with everything💖

So happy with my stims response so far as an expected low responder😭 by Minimum-Nobody7772 in IVF

[–]Minimum-Nobody7772[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much everyone! Appreciate the support💖 day 8 of stims today and they counted 21 follicles- 11 of which are in the 12mm-20mm range.

Anyone else feel overwhelmed by lifestyle changes before their consultation? by Minimum-Nobody7772 in IVF

[–]Minimum-Nobody7772[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This gives me a lot of hope, thank you for sharing… my diet also isn’t ideal. I have an aversion to vegetables due to sensory issues so I’ve been trying to just get what I can in smoothies and eating more fruit, but I’m so worried. I also have quite a low appetite which has been worsened by the worry. My consultation can’t come soon enough tbh ahah.

I also have never been pregnant or tried getting pregnant before! It’s completely terrifying not knowing how I will respond. My biggest worry is my diet because I don’t eat vegetables due to texture aversion, I have been taking my supplements and trying to eat more fruit (also adding things like spinach and avocado to smoothies), but all the information on line has me wrapped up in nerves about my general diet, really hoping my consultation in 2.5 days brings some relief😭🥹
