TTC after 35

Back from transfer...

We transferred 2 6- cell and one 7 cell embryos. One of the 6 cells had 55% fragmentation and the other 2 had 40% fragmentation.  It's really not the best but we are still hopeful and thankful that we have gotten this far. Last time mine didn't make it past 2 cells so I'm happy that these are still dividing.  

As of now I am on my couch with my feet up and my remote in hand. I had a nice Valium nap on the way home and I think I feel another one coming on :)
I'm staying home tomorrow so I have the full bed rest they recommended and its out of my hands. All I can do is hope.
TTC since 3/2010. Me 41, DH-49. After 3 years, 6 IUIs and several IVFs we have finally have our beautiful baby girl, born on 11/7/13.

    Yes! they give you a valium to reduce cramping after the procedure. It certainly calmed me down before the procedure and I slept most of the way home. 

    Good luck to you too! I saw that your donor is triggering this week :)

    TTC since 3/2010. Me 41, DH-49. After 3 years, 6 IUIs and several IVFs we have finally have our beautiful baby girl, born on 11/7/13.



  • Yay for you! My fingers are crossed for you.
  • Thank you yes, the retrieval is Weds 10am...fingers/limbs crossed.

    Valium sounds so relaxing. My office told me that I could take Motrin, last time I overdid my water and that 30 min post transfer wait was unbelievably uncomfortable.

    Thank you and keep us posted on how things are going.... I will do the same.
