My husband and I have been trying for about 2.5 years. We're both 34 and have undiagnosed fertility. We've tried everything from homeopathic remedies to IUIs, and after no luck with anything, we finally started IVF in October. Since then I've had two egg retrievals, the first in November and the second in January. (My doc wanted us to bank some embryos to be on the safe side.)
We just got our test results back, and we do have some viable embryos to work with. I feel like I can finally breathe again. That being said, I started my pre-transfer meds (estradiol for the moment, progesterone injections starting in a week or so) this past week, and I'm starting to feel pretty nervous about the transfer itself. If all goes well (fingers crossed), we're looking at a FET sometime later this month... which is crazy exciting but also completely terrifying.
@RedBess sorry you find yourself here but welcome! 7 pgs normal embryos is fantastic! If you haven't already, go check out the February FET thread. There is a great group of ladies in there doing transfers in February and its a great spot to communicate and support each other.

Thanks @ChocolateIsLife. When we found out we had 7 embryos, I couldn't believe it. I'm trying to be keep optimistic, but the closer we get to the FET, the more terrified I feel.
Good luck to you on your FET! Keeping fingers crossed.
Congratulations on the embryos! I'm learning so much about the FET and IVF processes on the boards and I'm genuinely excited when I see that someone has viable embryos to transfer Lots of wishes for your success!
