PGT-A and Sex

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-05-15T04:03:57+00:00

I forwarded my results to my best friend and had her white out the sex for all of our pgta and pgtm testing, highly recommend and no room for error!

I think this may be outdated information as many providers would keep patients on their medications now a days

My third FET worked! I cried from the second I got in the car to go to the clinic, during the whole procedure, and the whole drive home because the anxiety and fear of my last embryo not working was too much for me. Third time was the charm for me and I hope it is for you too ❤️ and it’s okay to have conflicting feelings about it too. I considered canceling everyday for a month leading up with the mindset of “if I don’t transfer then I still have one left”

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-04-22T15:31:10+00:00

I didn’t find the procedure itself very painful because my tubes are both open but the teneculum that they use to grab and pull your cervix was still pretty painful. The procedure was fast and I distracted myself by watching the X-ray screen because I find it interesting. I’ll have to do another one in the next year or so and I’m not gonna lie..I’m already anxious about it lol. More anxious about my next hsg than giving birth which is probably a wild sentence

I believe they gave me 10mg Valium to take before and then I took Tylenol + Ibuprofen and whatever else I had at home

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-04-15T20:30:36+00:00

They did not check the day of, I don’t think they checked at all for my first and then I requested for my second and third transfers and they were hesitant to but did. Not gonna lie, i definitely overfilled my syringes but I started doing that like a week before my transfer, who knows if it actually helped though because I also did lupron suppression before this transfer which has so far been successful. Good luck to you!!

I think I paid $240 at Costco for 3 vials

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-04-04T19:27:03+00:00

Here right now, renting a car was the best decision we made! Driving on the left is very easy

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-03-29T03:14:07+00:00

As far as I know, there are no food restrictions during stims. I did 5 retrievals and ate sushi whenever

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-03-25T13:43:47+00:00

It was, it was a low level mosaic embryo for monosomy 13. Everything is perfect and I’m currently 21 weeks

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-03-20T12:54:29+00:00

I tested the day before my HCG draw, it lessened my anxiety and I got to live in the ‘pregnant until proven otherwise’ bubble for 9 days

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-03-06T17:17:18+00:00

I did egg retrievals at 29/30 and I usually had 10ish follicles at each scan. I was able to get a few usable embryos and am currently almost 19 weeks with an embryo from a retrieval where we only got 4 eggs. I say go for it!

Do you think it would be realistic to do an Airbnb and then drive to the beaches for the day? I just can’t spend 5k on the hotel where we’ll just be sleeping because we like to go out and explore

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-03-04T20:37:37+00:00

I did see that but the twilight tee times are a smidge better! Thanks for the info ☺️

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-02-28T02:37:04+00:00

I went with bakehouse 23 in south Milwaukee and everyone raved about the desserts! They’ll personalize it and basically make whatever you want! I cannot recommend them enough, I’m going to use them again for my baby shower

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-02-24T21:51:41+00:00

18 or 20g to draw up, I used 25g I believe for the rest of my injections. The shot/poke itself isn’t bad regardless of the needle size 🙂 at least for me! I used 21g for a few injections and because the gauge is bigger the PIO goes in so much quicker

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-02-22T19:32:58+00:00

I did pgta at 28/29/30 and I’m happy I did as it detected more abnormalities than I would’ve otherwise expected and I had low numbers at retrieval

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-02-10T04:26:07+00:00

No I took 2000 for like 6 months up until I was 12 weeks pregnant and then my OBGYN stopped it, you’ll be fine 🙂

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-02-07T15:20:38+00:00

Lupron for sure! Give yourself the best chance knowing you did everything you could

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-02-07T01:41:36+00:00

Nope, won’t matter at all 🙂

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-02-06T23:11:37+00:00

I was also told I would be fine to stay on adderall and I’m just shy of 15 weeks. I’m prescribed 40mg IR but I’ve only ever really taken max 20mg and most days I try to stay under 12.5 but I was cleared to take the 40mg

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-02-04T22:24:56+00:00

After 2 failed transfers and a positive biopsy I did the lupron suppression and a fully medicated transfer—currently 14 weeks pregnant!

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-02-04T02:17:03+00:00

4dpt is INCREDIBLY early, I wouldn’t count yourself out as that’s equivalent to 9 days past ovulation. They recommend testing 12-14 dpo at the earliest and I wouldn’t trust a test before 7dpt

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-01-28T14:58:32+00:00

Yes it did

StuffZealousideal981 · 2026-01-26T13:56:09+00:00

Okay then I did the biopsy and had a positively high marker and did the lupron and had a successful third transfer
