Hello all,
I'm new to this particular board and thought it would be a good place for some positive support. I've been going through fertility treatments...had two unsuccessful IUI's and just went through an IVF treatment and extraction yesterday. We got 6 eggs, 3 matured and only 2 fertilized. My bubble is a bit deflated at the low numbers but still trying to stay positive. My transfer will be on Monday so I'm hoping all goes well with my two little embryo's. Could use some encouraging words and advice to keep my spirits up.
I admire all you ladies going through this process as it is so very difficult. Good luck and best wishes to all of you.

Thanks so much for the kind words. My diagnosis is diminished egg supply. My AMH level is only .5 and my husband doesn't have good sperm, either. I'm already 38 and don't have very many eggs left. Probably why I don't produce much. Keeping fingers and toes crossed that these two will continue to grow.
