If you did IVF

Did it work on the first try? I have a friend who just had the procedure done and she'll find out on the 27th if it worked. I am anxiously waiting to hear. She's so awesome and will make an amazing mother and I am praying that baby sticks!

  • First IVF worked for us

    Dx with severe endometriosis. DS#1 conceived with Met and TI. TTC#2 for 2.5 yrs. Dx 2nd IF. 4 clomid cycles, 2 IUIs, Finally IVF#1 w/ICSI worked for us! twins born 35w3d. Unexpected total hysterectomy 6/11. Now on the HRT train.

  • it worked for us, but we didnt do a fresh IVF.  we made the embyros, froze them and did put them in later.  Frozen transfers have a higher success rate.

    Good luck to your friend!   The two week wait is absolutely horrifying!

  • On our first round we were only given a 40% chance of it working at all (those are pretty low odds for IVF). So, we put two back and they both took! Imagine our surprise. Wink

  • We did IVF#1 and it worked but ended in a m/c.  Then we got prego on fertility drugs (that was DD number 2, number 1 is adopted) then we wanted to go for number 3 and did IVF#2 and got prego with the twins.  GL to your friend! =))

  • IVF #1 didn't work for us.  FET#1 gave us our twins.  The FET was way easier on my body them the full IVF cycle.

    Is this really true? I always thought the frozen transfer were less successful, but I guess I just assumed that.

    Anyways, ours worked the first time as well.

    I had 2 cycles canceled due to cysts, but once we were able to start a cycle, it worked.  We feel so lucky!

    It wasn't true for us. Our doctor gave us a 70% success rate for a fresh cycle, 60% for a frozen. I could see it being the case if you had lining issues maybe...

  • My first IVF was cancelled before transfer so obviously that didn't work, but the first IVF we did that resulted in a transfer resulted in our twins. Good luck to your friend - I do hope that it works for her.
  • 2 tries for my son, 4 for the twins. Gl to your friend!
  • Ours worked on the first try.  My cycle was actually a switch from IUI to IVF due to ending up with too many follicles to continue IUI.  

    Good luck to your friend!!! 

  • 2nd try for us.  GL to your friend!

  • Worked the first time.  I was so relieved because I don't know how I could have talked DH into giving me the PIO injections again.

  • I did my first IVF cycle in May and i'm now 6 weeks pregnant w/ twins! So YES it worked on the 1st try! :) Good luck to your friend!

    It took us 3 fresh cycles and 2 FETs before we finally got our "take home babies". Of those cycles, 3 were m/cs. Our successful cycle was a FET.
