Infertility

In need of some positivity

Hi all
Just needed to get my tears out. I had my retrieval for my 2nd IVF cycle yesterday and they retrieved 10 eggs. Today I got the call that 7 of those were mature but only 1 fertilized. I'm devastated. Last cycle we had 4 fertilize and 3 make it to day 3, implanted all 3 and got a BFN. Today they said they didn't even know if this little embie would make it to tomorrow. So just needing some positive vibes because I'm pretty tapped out right about now.

Re: In need of some positivity

  • I'm so sorry @Cupcakegal930 that's got to be the hardest news to hear! Keep praying that the one egg makes it! Positive thoughts, even though it's hard!

  • "sending positive vibes"!!! That's some tough news. But obviously you're a tough girl! You are going through all of this. Don't lose faith. Try to be positive. No sense in worrying about something that hasn't happened yet, right? I'm rooting for ya!

  • So sorry...can't imagine how hard that would be. Definitely sending some positive vibes for that little embie and you.

    Your head is probably not there at all at this time, but did you do ICSI? Is that something that could help (assuming that's not already what you did)?

    FX!
  • @KidShrink yes we did do ICSI. No word yes on why they think the others didn't fertilize. I'll ask more after we see what happens with this one.

    Thanks everyone for the positive thoughts!
