IVF Day8 check, trigger tomorrow and 2 follies-DOR SUCKS

Yep- this time I said it. DOR SUCKS. 

2 days ago, I had 2x14s and 3x10s. The 10's have managed to NOT rsvp to the party-they've not grown at all. the 14s are now both almost 17s. I am triggering tomorrow.... with 2 follies. TWO! Grrrr. 

I hope, I PRAY that these TWO follies have eggs, and that those eggs are good and strong and courageous. Right now I feel so defeated...and I have to sing a performance tonight. I don't know HOW on earth I am going to do it.... I've been crying all afternoon. I am trying so desperately to pull myself together.

Please say a prayer for my 2 follies...that when we go for EC on Monday morning that they are beautiful and that when we put them back on Thursday, that they both will still be going strong, giving me a chance to be a mom.... Thanks for listening.

  • Oh honey, I am so sorry.  I totally understand where you're coming from - it is so much to go through, for so little...  My thoughts and prayers are with your 2 follies ---- praying they are both offering up mature healthy eggs that become your take home baby(ies) :)  FX and big hugs!!!!
  • Oh sweetheart I am so sorry to hear this news.  It must be incredibly frustrating after getting your hopes up and your RE telling you how great everything looked. 

    Sometimes I don't know how we do everything we do... go through this and still step up to the plate to sing at a performance, or even just act like normal people at work and in the real world.  But it's awesome that you were able to step up and do it!  

    Just wanted to send you some (((hugs))) and prayers for a great egg retrieval.  I hope that both of those follies have perfect, beautiful, mature eggs in them.  I know the "quality, not quantity" thing sounds trite and I'm totally guilty of stressing over 11 embryos this cycle, so I'm definitely a hypocrite here... but with my first cycle I was the poster child for "quality, not quantity" (27 eggs and all of them sucked!).   And we have joules pregnant from a lone embryo right now!  So I'll send you lots of prayers for two perfect eggs, which might just turn into two take-home babies for you :)  Hope you're feeling a little bit better -- don't be afraid to let it all out.

    Severe MFI. Me: supposedly all clear but eggs showed vacuoles.

    IVF #1 January 2012, ER Jan 14th: 34R, 27M, 23F. Day 3: 18 embies still strong. Day 5: zero "good," one "fair," the rest "poor." Transferred 3. None made it to blast or to freeze. Jan 28: BFN.

    Lucky IVF #2: Transferred two beautiful day three embies on St. Patrick's Day. BFP on HPT 7dp3dt. Beta 1 (14dpER)=106; Beta 2 (16dpER)=140; Beta 3 (19dpER)=264! First u/s 4.17.
