I'm on Day 10 of stims. Waiting on a call back for further instructions. The bloat is real!
I'm starting to get antsy about whether or not this all will work. My last ER was so fucking disappointing. Praying for a miracle!
ER will be this week sometime. I'll update when I know more!

♪♫choppinbroccoli♫♪ sorry for the bloat. I have everything crossed for you! Let us know how things go. skidevil87 How are doing? Did you do PGS testing on your embryos? Still planning on another retrieval? AFM, nothing to report. Still considering embryo adoption but things got really crazy with work so I haven’t had much time to really look into it.

♪♫choppinbroccoli♫♪, you're doing great. Just keep your nose to the grindstone. I have so many things crossed- including my eyes! champagne, we did send the 8 for PGT. I should have the results sometime this week. This wait kid of sucks, but knowing we have insurance coverage has taken a huge weight off of my shoulders stress wise. I'm kind of glad we paid for the first round out of pocket. It really helps me appreciate everything I am able to get done. It keeps me humble.

♪♫choppinbroccoli♫♪ everything crossed for a great retrieval. skidevil87 I hope you hear amazing news about you 8 soon! champagne hugs. Deciding next steps sucks. Well, we’ve mostly decided we will be doing donor eggs, and are looking at a guaranteed program. I’ve started filling out the paperwork. It is so expensive. But, if we are going to do anything else, it seems like this is the right thing for us to do.

That’s the most frustrating part of infertility for me. I can deal with everything else, but not an empty bank account.

sally,Good plan. You can't sit there and wonder "what if". ♪♫choppinbroccoli♫♪, how are you hanging in there?! As for me... we have 7 euploid embryos. Holy heckin' heck. I never thought in a million years we'd have this many.

sally ,Good plan. You can't sit there and wonder "what if". ♪♫choppinbroccoli♫♪ , how are you hanging in there?! As for me... we have 7 euploid embryos. Holy heckin' heck. I never thought in a million years we'd have this many. I'm hanging! Just got the call this afternoon confirming ER for Friday. My left ovary decided to be bashful and hide behind my ute a little bit today, so that U/S was a doozy! I didn't know the dildo cam could bend in my vaginal cavity like that. LOLOL, sorry for the TMI. I do my first set of triggers tonight, and a second one of Lupron tomorrow morning. I don't know how I will be able to focus at work tomorrow. Lawd. E2 is looking nice at >3000 today, so hopefully that will keep rising. I think there are ~14 follicles that are looking good, so we will see. THROW ME ALL THE GOOD ENERGY/THOUGHTS/PRAYERS!!

Hi guys! Still recovering from the ER on Friday.
Stats: 19 eggs retrieved, 13 were mature, 11 fertilized normally. Day 3 was today, and I was told all 11 embryos are still dividing normally. Fingers crossed they all make it to Day 5. With my egg quality, I need all the embryos I can get!!

Yesterday was Day 5. I was told 5 embryos were good to go, and that there were 4 that they wanted to give one more day. So as of today, a total of 7 embryos will be PGS-tested! I should hopefully get the results late next week. Cue slowest week everrrrrrr commencing.
Thanks for cheering me on!

Sorry I’m coming in all random to check in. I was waiting to be more on the proactive side of this. So here I am. It’s been two years. Anyway. Preliminary testing is underway. cd3 testing done. HSG scheduled Wednesday. And H’s SA first week of March. Then we will discuss and see what we can do with our RE. Finances aren’t as constricted anymore so we might be able to pay for some of this maybe.

I just came back from the HSG. It was uncomfortable. They did say my right Fallopian tube seems to be blocked. Left is okay. Not sure how to proceed from here. My husbands SA is next week. I’m feeling very pessimistic today.

No. I haven’t heard from my actual RE yet. It was more like the radiologist and the ob who inserted the catheter mentioning it while I was there. We still have to get my h’s SA done next week. So. Much. Testing. I’ll mention the hysteroscopy when I hear from her though. Or see what she suggests.

OMG Y'ALL!!! 5 OUT OF 7 EMBRYOS ARE "NORMAL"!!!!
I am in complete shock! Shaking, crying, laughing, smiling. I haven't felt this much joy in TTC since the first time I got pregnant (before loss, before constant worry). Wow, I can't believe it.
I could start worrying about the next thing, but I am going to make myself enjoy this moment. I'm gonna celebrate tonight.
Thanks for thinking of me and cheering me on. I'll update more when I know more. FET will probably be late spring, I'm guessing.
<3 <3 <3
