Home from 5dt and not feeling very optimistic.  This was the 1st cycle I didn't have a blast on day 5.  We transferred two morulas from DH's batch  I'm a bit bummed since this cycle seemed so great until this point.  They are watching 3 embryos from the donor batch to see if they can be frozen but I won't know for 10 days or so.

@Spring78 ((hugs)) I'm so sorry.

@blueeyes233 I'm sorry you didn't have any blasts. I hope those morulas are little rockstars! Why do you have to wait so long to know if you have any to freeze?! That would be hard.

Spring78 I'm so sorry

I just got home from my ET and it wasn't painful and actually kind of a cool experience. Of my 19 retreived, they were able to freeze 3. I am happy we have frozen embies, but I am not going to lie, with 19 to start, I expected more.

They said my blastocyst was great and were very optimistic. I'm feeling really good about it right now and just trying to cling to that optimism.

carrieharry79

Oh, so I'm officially PUPO! Love saying that I'm at that stage of this journey.

blueeyes233

@lebradford - they send a letter in the mail if there were any to freeze.  They said the letter should get here in 7 - 10 days.  Wish they would just call tomorrow and tell me. 

alpCRNA

@mariana81  My ET was today.  Thanks for keeping me in your thoughts.

I am officially PUPO, but feeling very discouraged.  We switched protocols for IVF #2 hoping to have better embryo quality but that did not happen.  As of today, we had two morulas and one low grade blast.  They said it was a grade 2 (on a scale of 1-8) 4BC.  We decided to transfer all three, since we transferred one low grade blast and one morula for IVF#1.

Today, a dream came true for my family We got our final embryo report and had our transfer. I am officially PUPO!!

We transferred two Grade A blastocysts. We have three blastocysts who are being frozen (Grade A, B, and B- ). There are a few more who may make it to freeze. We will find out by 9:00am tomorrow if there are anymore. We are over the moon!!! So happy and optimistic! Let the 2WW begin Beta is 11/24, and we plan to go beta or bust!!

alpCRNA

@RunCC37  I am so incredibly happy for you!   You deserve good news.  Keeping you in my prayers.

RunCC37

Thanks @alpCRNA‌ I haven't been around the boards very much (unplugging to preserve my sanity!!) but I've been thinking about you. How's it going?

alpCRNA

@RunCC37  We transferred one poor grade blast and 2 morulas today.  So, switching to the long lupron protocol did not improve embryo quality.  Now we are just waiting and praying for a miracle.

@Spring78‌ I'm sorry but don't give up hope just yet.

Wow so much going on around here!

@SweetieShellieH it's awesome you have so many follicles.

@Spring78 I'm so sorry. I know how discouraging it can be.

@ssoennin and @MamaKakes611 I'm so sorry that your transfers didn't work out. Hugs to you both

@blueeyes233 My clinic sends a letter too and it is so frustrating waiting for it to come. Especially when it seems like everyone else gets to find out on day 6.

@alpCRNA I'm sorry that the quality wasn't what you were hoping for. FX that one (or more) of them stick!

@RunCC37 I am so happy to hear that things are going so well for you! Here's to a quick TWW and good luck making it to beta!

To those of you who are now PUPO, good luck in the TWW and sending good vibes your way. Hugs to those who need them!

****Warning!****

Well, I have absolutely NO willpower and the patience of a 3 year old so, I tested yesterday at work. At 6DP5DT my Beta came out at 42.5 so I am unofficially a BFP! Due to our history of CP and early MC, for our last BFP my betas looked perfect until they weren't, DH and I are terrified that something will happen so I would say that we are cautiously optimistic and just trying to not get too excited.

kristyn831

@Spring78‌ I'm sorry about your BFN. FX you get a surprise on beta day!

kristyn831

Congrats to everyone who's joined me in the PUPO group!

Giants721

mariana81

RunCC37 Congratulations!!! I am so happy for you and your ninjas!!! Sending sticky thoughts!!! 

@Nutmeg8484‌  Congratulations on your BFP!!! =D>

Is it safe to take Tylenol extra strength after ET? I can't seem to get rid of these cramps from ER. I'm hoping to get some sleep tonight, but it's been hard to get comfortable. I don't want to ruin implantation.

BunInTheLab

@blushingbride317‌ my IVF nurses said Tylenol is fine from here on out. Just make sure you don't take more than 4000mg in 24 hours. Feel better!!!

blushingbride317

Thank you! @BunInTheLab‌....love your username!

cparker1

@blushingbride317‌ my clinic said it's ok to take Tylenol and alive after ET, good luck your little embies stick! @Nutmeg8484‌ a big congratulations on your BFP so happy for you those are great betas for days past transfer. @Spring78‌ so sorry, it could just be too early to test for HPT please don't lose hope. I hope your beta goes well. I hope everyone else is doing well! I went in for my first beta this morning and got in for beta #2 on Tuesday. It's going to be a long 2 days for me.

SweetieShellieH

Hi ladies I started Ganirelix tonight. The injection site is red and swollen, so I was a little worried, but it says it's normal in the info sheet so I'm not going to worry about it for now! U/s shows 33 follies. About 16 of them are growing pretty well, so just hoping the other half of my follies catch up. They're all between 4mm and 12mm so a bit of variation in size. Still no idea when ER will be :P @nutmeg8484 congrats!!!

shadiddynyc

@SweetieShellie‌H those are good #'s. Unfortunately I went to another office this morning in Maryland & never got a phn call in regards to my report. I'm on day 8 of stims & I don't believe I have any over 12mm. I'm hoping that they will all be around the same size.

mrscsw

Good Luck @Mariana81 with your ER tomorrow!!

mrsCW

@spring78 FX for better news at beta!

@Nutmeg8484‌ congrats!!! I've been going back and forth all day on whether or not to start testing tomorrow (I'm also 6dp5dt today). I just can't decide!!

mariana81

Thank you @cwoodward777‌ ;;)

lebradford

@Nutmeg8484 Congratulations!! That's a great number for so early!!
