That is great news nedico! Sorry you are feeling so rough still.

I don't remember having this much pain after any other retrieval. I feel like I did laproscopic surgery. I am sure I will start feeling better tomorrow.

out of the 17 eggs, 12 were mature, and 8 fertilized.

Awesome, pincushion! Great start!

We lost our last 3 embryos today, they weren't good enough tofreeze but we have the three frozen yesterday still so that's good, just how they all thaw nicely when the time comes, now we just wait till FET! Loving hearing the updates from you ladies well done pincushion.

sorry your 3 left didn't make it, nedico.

I expect to only have 2-4 survive to day 5. It would be super nice if I could actually get a couple to freeze but that has only happened once in 5 retrievals.
I expect they I will have 7-8 growing today and probably through day three. Then I will go into transfer and they will tell me 4-5 stopped growing after day 3. Which is okay as long as the golden one is thriving.

All 8 still growing. The nurse called them lovely. Transfer is on day 5-wednesday. I will get an update and time for transfer when they call tomorrow. There is a possibility of a day 6 transfer since we have planned assisted hatching.

D day is tomorrow! :) getting really nervous hope my blasts thaw out nicely. Getting nervous kinda glad now that they gave me Valium for the transfer tomorrow to help calm my nerves. Eeeekkk! :) how did your embies do today pincushion?

Sorry, Nedico....I am sure "the one" is frozen and waiting for you.
Great news, pincushion!
Good luck tomorrow, Georgia!

The nurse called yesterday and said all * were growing but the doc makes courtesy calls apparently before transfer to check on the patient and he told me 1 embryo stopped growing at 4 cells but the rest looked nice. Transfer is tomorrow at 10:45

How did it go georgia ?

Everything went great yesterday :) i had a quirky doc he told me that hopes the force be with me :) haha :) now the 2ww begins ...started my lovenox last night... The shot itself does not hurt but the medicine burns. I absolutely hate this part of IVF. I analyze every little thing during this time. :)

I transferred 2 blasts today! One expanded blast grade AA and a blast grade AB. The lad assistant said both were hatched, but I don't know if that is assisted hatched as planned or fully hatched. The doc also said I had several early blasts still growing, but I did not get a count. So I may have as many as 5 embryos still growing. This cycle is looking pretty good so I am hopeful.

Food luck, Georgia and pincushion! Fingers crossed! Everything sounds great so far!

Good...not food.. lol.

Haha :) thanks Lizzy!

I have been having some light cramping since yesterday and a little more intense today but not bad. Boobs aren't sore as they were. Burping and little bit of nausea. Don't know if the nausea is from the milk I drank this morning or not. Has anyone had the cramping? That has me the most worried plus the not so sore boobs.
